Push Gaming · 2023
Deciding whether Razor Returns suits you starts with its type: a high volatility 5x5 video slot by Push Gaming. This page covers figures, rounds and bonus modes.
Choose Razor Returns if you want an ocean game with sharks, fish and a diving helmet on a 5x5 grid. Each of the five reels shows five symbols, and wins follow 40 fixed paylines that run from left to right. Three matching symbols are the fewest that pay. Wins are paid on the total bet, not on each payline, so every win follows the bet you set.
Pick Razor Returns for a multiplier that climbs in free spins. Three, four or five Torpedo Symbols start the Free Spins Feature at Total Multiplier x1, x5 or x25. Ten Mystery Symbols from reels 2 and 4 nudge down one position per spin, and each nudge adds 1 to the multiplier. The Push Bet adds 10% to the base bet and raises the feature chance.

Know how bonuses start
The common worry is not knowing how a bonus starts or what it costs.
Switch on the Push Bet toggle to raise the Base Bet by 10% and increase the chance of triggering the Free Spins Feature. It can only be switched off at the end of a round. It changes the RTP.
Normal Base GameHigher bonus chance
Land 3+ Torpedo Symbols in Base Game or Razor Reveal to start Free Spins. Total Multiplier: x1, x5 or x25 for 3, 4 or 5 torpedoes. Reels 2 and 4 seed 10 Mystery Symbols that nudge down 1 position per spin, raising Total Multiplier by 1 until none remain.

Razor Returns Path
It settles how a round moves from your bet to a payout before the first spin.
Pick a Base Bet from A$0.10 to A$100 before you spin. Push Bet adds 10% to that bet and can only be switched off at the end of a round.
The 5x5 grid has 40 fixed paylines paid left to right. Three symbols is the fewest that pay, and wins go on the Total (base) bet, not per line.
Besides Scatter and Wild, the base game also carries Nudge, Respin, Multiplier Spots, Progressive Multiplier, Money Collect and Gamble. The Total Multiplier comes back in the next step.
Three Torpedo Symbols start Free Spins at x1, four at x5, five at x25. Reels 2 and 4 seed 10 Mystery Symbols that nudge down a place each spin, adding 1 each.
Set your spending limit before the first spin and keep to it. Push Bet can only be switched off at the end of a round, so choose it before you start.

Learn Without Stakes
Starting with the demo removes the worry about spending before you know the rules.
Choose the demo to learn the 5x5 grid, since it needs no money and pays nothing. Choose the real game with a Royals Casino account at 18 or older.
Play for moneyChoosing how many spins to play starts with one fact: the bonus round does not come on a schedule. How often it arrives is not known in advance, and the result of one session is random whatever the RTP. A high RTP does not mean the bonus lands sooner, and a short run of spins tells you little about the next one.
Deciding between RTP versions starts in the game rules, where Royals Casino shows which version is running. The reels themselves do not reveal it, so check the rules before you set a stake, and treat the percentage as a long-run figure, not a promise for your next session.
Planning around the biggest prize means accepting that it is a ceiling, not a target. The maximum win of Razor Returns is x100,000 the bet, and that ceiling is reached very rarely. Treat the figure as the outer edge of the game, not as the expected result of any spin.
Lobby neighbours
Worried another title will feel the same? Each one plays by its own rules.
Play is for players aged 18+. Help is available from the National Gambling Helpline on 1800 858 858, and BetStop is the national self-exclusion register.
Decide how much you can lose before the first spin, and treat that sum as the limit for the session, not a target to win back.
Choose in advance when you stop, and stop at that point even after a win, because a win does not change the session plan.
Use the deposit and loss limits in your account to cap what you can put in and lose, and set them before you open the game.
Take a break or self-exclude as soon as the game stops being fun, and do not chase losses with a bigger bet.
Know the figures first
Useful before you choose a bet, a version or a feature, and before the first spin.
Razor Returns is offered in three RTP versions: 96.16%, 96.24% and 96.55%. RTP means the long-run return per A$100 staked, so it says nothing about what one session will pay.
The top prize is 100,000 times the bet. At the example bet of A$10 that is A$1,000,000, and at the highest bet of A$100 it is A$10,000,000. Reaching that ceiling cannot be planned, and no one can know in advance whether a round will get there.
Razor Ways pays a maximum of 25,000 times the bet at RTP 96.36%, against 100,000 times for Razor Returns. Razor Shark runs at 96.70% RTP, the highest in the series, and Razor Shark Jackpots at 96.38%.
The lowest bet is A$0.10 and the highest is A$100. The tables on this page use A$5 and A$10 as examples only, not as limits. Push Bet adds 10% to the base bet, so the A$10 base bet becomes A$11 with it switched on.
Razor Returns offers buy options for free spins, with the Torpedo versions priced at 106 times the base bet for three and 186 times for four. At the A$10 base bet, the three-spin buy costs A$1,060.
