MILKSHAKE XXXtreme
Milkshake XXXtreme online slot produced by NetEnt comes with a default 96.04% RTP and a 6-reel, 6-row playing area featuring a “pays anywhere” win evaluation mechanism.
Most of us have probably enjoyed a milkshake at some point in our lives, be it a fancy concoction prepared in a restaurant or an instant mix from a box. But did you know that before it became an iconic dessert, it used to be an alcoholic drink based on whiskey? A sort of eggnog-type, thick liquid considered to be healthy and nutritious. Whether its evolution went in the right direction is a question of preference, so we won’t dwell on it and instead take a look at the mouth-watering game from NetEnt.
In the world of online slots, where candy and sweets are almost as popular a theme as expeditions to Egyptian tombs, every game featuring savory treats feels like a little confectionery with its own delicious menu. In this new release from the creators of Starburst, we’ll have a chance to enjoy an array of aromatic jellies, syrup-dripping ice cream, and fancy milkshakes – a spot-on selection to satisfy the cravings of any sweet tooth. With a cherry on top in the form of a 7,100x max win, it’s shaping up to be a tasty treat.

How To Win On Milkshake XXXtreme Slot - Features & Mechanics
A 6x6 grid enclosed in a smooth candy frame awards wins comprising at least 8 matching images anywhere in view. The Avalanche™ mechanism removes all winning combinations from the playing area and populates empty spaces with new symbols, potentially extending the sequence. Prizes for regular hits range from 0.4 times the bet for the smallest sets consisting of the jellies up to 4 times the bet for the most extensive groups of pink ice cream, counting between 22-36 instances. A classic Wild symbol appears on all reels and substitutes for all characters to help create wins.
Milkshake Feature
At the beginning of every spin, a milkshake appears next to the grid. It's in one of four colors matching the symbol groups, carries a multiplier (between x2 and x100), and has a 20-point meter that begins partially filled from 2 to 12 units. Any wins on symbols of the same color (both low and high-paying) will contribute to its progression. Once the milkshake is full, its multiplier becomes guaranteed. The glass will be replaced by 2 new ones, and the cycle will continue. If at least one of the new milkshakes is filled, it will also add its multiplier to the initial one and get replaced by 2 new glasses. There can be a maximum of 4 milkshakes simultaneously in view. The total win from the entire spin will be multiplied by the collective value from all filled glasses.
A random Booster Feature may enhance any milkshake by increasing its initial multiplier or transforming it into a Rainbow Milkshake that collects wins of all colors.
XXXtreme Spins
After its first and only appearance in Starburst XXXtreme, NetEnt's super bet functionality resurfaces to offer enhanced spins. In Milkshake XXXtreme, it comes with 2 options:
- A spin starting with 2 milkshakes and 1 guaranteed Wild for 10 times the active bet.
- A spin starting with 4 milkshakes and 2 guaranteed Wilds for 95 times the active bet.
Milkshake XXXtreme On Mobile
The slot runs on the latest HTML5 technology, making it an ideal proposition for playing on the go on any mobile device. The lightweight, advanced setup guarantees quick loading times and dynamic gameplay. You may enjoy tasty milkshakes and other delicious sweets in portrait and landscape modes, offering a clean and intuitive design. The symmetrical 6x6 screen structure fits perfectly into both orientations.
Final Thoughts
After just having our fill of treats in NetEnt's previous release - Cupcakes - we're served with another savory theme, tempted to reach out for some more. And reach out we will, because Milkshake XXXtreme bursts with luscious confectionery that one can almost taste by just looking at the symbols. The appetizing jellies and creamy scoops successfully elevate cravings for one more bite. And another one. Not to mention the refreshing titular milkshakes crowned with elaborate compositions of sweets and fruit when the progression is complete. The art direction, in general, may feel reserved because of a simple reel setup and lack of detailed decorations around the central area. At the same time, it puts maximum focus on the symbols and collection animations that the game is all about.
On a technical note, we're always on the fence when it comes to slots without a bonus round. On the one hand, there's undoubtedly more value spread around the multipliers and the base wins, bringing up the overall hit rate and average win ratio. On the other, an absence of a separate stage consisting of a number of free spins is always a bit of a downer since those moments act as a breather and anticipation-builder. Still, there's the cascading mechanism that efficiently extends most of the game rounds and ties in seamlessly with multiplier accumulation. And for those who don't feel like grinding, XXXtreme spins are a great solution to reach the game's full potential in a potentially shorter time frame. With a max win of 7,100x, Milkshake XXXtreme offers consistent and engaging gameplay dressed in a delicious theme brimming with candied flavors.
