Chameleon Cash Slot

Graphics, Sound & Symbols

The visual side of Chameleon Cash looks superb with an upbeat audio track. It’s one of those slots that lifts your mood when you play it. The low-value symbols are the card suits.

By way of payouts, they don’t offer much and pay up to 100 credits for 5 matching symbols. The high-value symbols are fruit of which the orange is the premium.

Five oranges on the grid pay 150 credits. There are random wilds and normal wilds.

Chameleon Cash Slot Bonus Rewards

Hold & Win Feature

When 6 or more scatter symbols appear on the reels, you’ll unlock the Hold & Win feature. You’ll start with 3 respins, every bonus symbol that appears resets the respins value back to 3.

Furthermore, you can win the Mini, Minor, or Major jackpots during the feature. The Hold & Win feature ends when you run out of respins. Or when 15 bonus symbols land on the grid.

More importantly, 15 Bonus symbols also award the top cash prize of $250,000. Also, you can’t trigger the Hold & Win feature during the Nudging Multiplier Wild Reel.

Nudging Multiplier Wild Reel

In the base game a partially wild reel nudges up and down. In return, it creates a full wild reel on the third reel. Each wild reel can award multiplier wins of 2x, 3x, 5x, 8x, or 10x.

The Multiplier Wild Reel substitutes all the symbols except for the Mini, Minor, and Major jackpot symbols.

Second Chance

If you don’t catch a payout during the Multiplier Wild Reel, you’ll get a second chance. The reel will lock on the 3rd reel offering you a respin.

Random Wilds

The random wild pops onto the grid when more than 1 wild forms part of a winning combo. The random wilds don’t appear during the hold & win or nudging wild multiplier reel. Random wilds only pitch on reels 2, 3, 4, or 5.

Stacked Mystery Symbols

You’ll encounter a Stacked Mystery Symbol on any reel. They also fill all the positions with the same symbol and any symbol can replace them.

Buy Feature

If you don’t want to wait for 6 or more scatters to land. You can buy the Hold & Win Feature for 100x your stake.

What We Like and Don’t Like About Chameleon Cash

The slot has a lot of moving parts including a Hold & Win Feature which is chief. The jackpot of $250,000 is no small change either. Just a pity the Hold & Win feature doesn’t trigger easily.

Tips & Strategy

Before we play slots for real money online we open up the paytable. It contains all the information about the game including its special features. Once we’ve perused the help screen it’s time to play.

We’ll choose a betting range we’re comfortable with. After we tested the slot in demo mode for at least 50 spins we’ll play it with a small budget. However, that also depends on how much fun we had playing it with free credits.

How to Win Money Chameleon Cash

Armed with a budget of $250 we played it for bets of $5 per spin, that’s exactly 50 spins. A few things caught our eye starting with the mystery symbols, and the random wilds, they land often.

For the most part, the mystery symbols transformed into low-value symbols. While the random wild finds the most suitable match by “squaring up” symbols.

We triggered the hold & win feature once for a win of $40 or 8x the stake. After 50 spins we still showed a small profit of $15. Guess the RTP isn’t that bad after all.

Verdict: Chameleon Cash Slot

This slot can change colors just like a chameleon. For once Nucleus Gaming drops a top slot with a slew of special features. Triggering the hold & win feature is not as difficult as we thought.

Unfortunately, we could never land successive bonus symbols to reset the meter back to 3 respins. We also tested the bonus via the feature buy option with similar results.

Nucleus Gaming could have done so much more with it. For example, they could have allowed additional bonus triggers through the Nudging Multiplier Wild Reel and the Stacked Mystery Symbols.

Otherwise, it’s a fine slot but we caution you to not overstay your welcome. Use the buy option with discretion as 1 in 5 might yield a decent win. Gemsa X-mas Edition is a cracking slot from BGaming.

The slot has a cascading or “refilling” game engine, and up to 5,000x multipliers in the free sins.
