Warhammer 40k: the game where grown adults spend hundreds of hours painting tiny plastic soldiers only to immediately chip the paint off during their first dice roll. It’s a perfect hobby for anyone who loves strategy, miniature artistry, and crippling existential dread over forgetting to glue a bolter on correctly. Attracting a mix of meticulous artists, spreadsheet-wielding strategists, and the occasional guy who just likes yelling “FOR THE EMPEROR!” in public, it’s less a tabletop game and more a cult meeting disguised as somewhat socially acceptable nerdiness. Plus, if Henry Cavill, it can’t really be that bad.
While I have no evidence that the Metal Frontiers slot from Mascot was influenced by War Hammer 4k in the slightest, it was the first thing that I thought of when I launched the game.
Are you ready to be recruited by the Space Marines?
Badges in the Metal Frontiers slot aren’t just shiny collectibles—they’re your ticket to turbocharged rewards. Land five or more badge symbols to unlock an adrenaline-pumping bonus round packed with two or three spins, depending on how many you snagged. This feature cranks up the intensity, as every Badge collected not only boosts your payouts but also unlocks additional layers of gameplay.
The bonus game is triggered with the appearance of five or more badges. During a round, badges do double duty: they amplify immediate wins and stack up to fuel even bigger rewards. Plus, the number of badges determines your extra spins, giving you a laser-focused shot at securing massive multipliers and cashing in on this exclusive feature. It’s not just a bonus round—it’s a high-stakes treasure hunt where every spin counts.
If you’re not keen on serving as an infantryman, you can select to utilize the slot’s buy bonus feature to jump straight to the good stuff.
Is Metal Frontiers slot ready for a fight or just playing dress-up?
Betting on the Metal Frontiers slot starts from as little as $0.25 and tops out at $50 a spin. The slot offers a 5,000x max multiplier which gives you a shot at winning up to $250,000. The medium volatility gives the gameplay a balance between small consistent wins and rare larger ones. The slot offers an RTP rating of 95%.
I don’t what it is but the Metal Frontiers slot was forgettable. It may be that another game did it better and that’s the standard I’m holding it to. It certainly isn’t an out-and-out bad game. The graphics are good, the gameplay engaging and the bonus features solid. There is nothing wrong with it and it’ll certainly get the job done. It’s just missing a bit of soul. I give the Metal Frontiers slot a seven out of ten.
If you’re looking for a few Mascot games that do have soul, try out Riot 2: Burn and Blow and Trump Card Queen.
