Is The Theme Interesting?

The action takes place on 5 reels and 3 rows that are surrounded by a skate park, with palm trees in the distance, happening on a bright, sunny day!

The design relies strongly on a graffiti style, showing reels that resemble a blackboard, featuring colourful symbols that include the S, K, A, T and E letters, as well as Nyjah himself in several different-coloured images.

Overall, visually, this skateboard-themed, comic book styled title is superb, making it appealing for both the fans of the sport and for those unfamiliar with it. 

The upbeat soundtrack is the one that can be used in a competition, which is why it fits perfectly here.

The best part, though, is the animation showing this skateboarding professional doing tricks across the reels!

What About The Betting Options?

When it comes to symbols, expectedly, 5 premium symbols are the ones represented by purple, blue, green, yellow and red trick shots of Nyjah Huston, the last being the highest rewarding one, paying you 25x your stake for 5 in combination.

The special symbol skateboard wild, though, pays you even more, as you will get 40x, should you land 5 in a combo.

Besides, it substitutes for all symbols except the golden S, K, A, T and E scatters, as well as has the ability to expand and cover an entire reel which can turn into a golden Wildboard for a multiplier up to 10x!

The game is played on a 5x3 reel set and offers punters 10 pay lines, giving you the maximum winning potential of an excellent 5,000x bet in total.

To jump on your skateboard and start spinning around, you need to set your bets that vary between 10p and $100.

This sports-themed title keeps the RTP at high levels, being set to 96.20%, while the variance is medium to low.

What Special Features Should We Expect?

It would be unfair if the number of special features in this branded game is not reciprocal to the tricks Nyjah has up his sleeve, and luckily, the developers at Play'n Go thought the same!

This is why the punters will face features like Combo Meter Tricks, Wildboard Respins, and SKATE free spins!

On any base game spin, if the ‘Combo Meter‘, shown above the reels is activated, it will display a trick and can land on any reels!

Should the corresponding trick symbol appear anywhere on the reels, it will trigger a Wildboard Respin!

During this feature, two regular wild, together with one Expanded wild, are added to help you get a winning spin.

Besides, the expanded wild could also turn into a Golden Wildboard that will add a multiplier of x2, x3, x5, or x10 to the game.

Now, where there are respins, there are usually free spins as well!

So, land the golden S, K, A, T, E symbols on each reel, and trigger the Skate Free Spins feature, that will begin by giving you 10 extra spins!

Pay attention to the Combo Meter that is active on every free spin as well and displays 3 tricks. Should you land the trick symbol in order from left to right, Nyjah will trigger the aforementioned Wildboard Re-Spin feature and 2 additional spins.

What Is Our Take?

When a developer decides to create a branded game, there is always a risk of it not being accepted by the players who are not familiar with the theme.

For Play'n GO release Nyjah Huston Skate For Gold that is not a problem, since this is a very well designed game, featuring graffiti-like graphics and beautiful animations that can easily impress even the ones that know nothing about skateboarding.

Besides, the title offers the maximum payout of up to 5,000x your bet, as well as some pretty interesting special features that punters surely won't mind trying out!
