Evil Goblins xBomb Demo & review

Four goblins sit above the reels of Evil Goblins xBomb, and when one matches the symbol under it, it throws a grenade that turns those symbols wild. Nolimit City released the game in October 2021 with xBombs that blow up the grid and grow it toward seven rows. Its bonus menu tops out at a throne multiplier that keeps climbing, so it suits bonus buyers who are happy to pay well above the bet for it.

How Evil Goblins xBomb works

Six reels start with three rows and 729 ways, wins cascade, and the grid can grow to seven rows. Wilds appear only on reels 2 to 6. The five goblin symbols top a short paytable, and six of a kind pays no more than a few times the bet, so the features have to supply the size.

What feeds what:

1. Goblin Sacrifice: a goblin above the reels that matches the symbol below it throws a grenade, turning matching symbols wild, and is replaced.
2. xBombs remove neighbours, add 1 to the win multiplier and add a row.
3. Evil 4: matching all four goblins seats one on a throne on reel 1 with a multiplier of x4 or more.
4. Scatters open the free-spins tiers, and Evil 4 or xBombs during the trigger upgrade them.
5. Resurrection Wilds fire when 3, 4 or 5 Dead Wilds are on the grid.

Evil 4 carries the game, because the throne multiplier is the one thing that keeps growing through a bonus. Goblin Sacrifice and xBombs make the grid worth multiplying.

Evil 4, Goblin Sacrifice and xBombs

Evil 4 and the throne

When all four goblins match, the matching goblin sits on the throne on reel 1. That reel counts as four of the goblin's symbol, and the throne starts at x4 or higher. Every new matching goblin adds +1, which is why the multiplier in the top corner is worth watching more than the win counter.

Goblin Sacrifice

Each spin puts four goblins on top of the reels. A match with the symbol directly below sends a grenade down and turns the matching symbols wild, and a new goblin takes the old one's place.

xBombs

An xBomb explodes with or without a win. It removes the symbols around it, adds 1 to the win multiplier and adds a row. Scatters, Dead Wilds, Evil 4 symbols and Resurrection Wilds are untouched. In practice even a spin with no win can change the grid, because the bomb still clears its neighbours and adds its row.

xBomb x2: two barrels on the grid with the win multiplier at x3, 2 spins left, mid-round. FluxPlays demo test, 9 November 2026.

Resurrection Wilds

Three, four or five Dead Wilds activate as Resurrection Wilds, and the last one to land boosts a multiplier of x11, x33 or x55. We could not confirm one of these on screen, so this description comes from the rules alone.

How the bonuses trigger

Scatters on reels 2 to 5 open the free spins, and what lands with them picks the tier.

Fresh Meat Spins

Three or four Scatters award 8 or 9 spins with Dead Wilds on every spin. Evil 4 during the round upgrades it to Goblins Feast Spins and keeps the multiplier, so this is the round that can turn into the better one.

Goblins Feast Spins

Three Scatters together with Evil 4 trigger this round directly. Each new matching goblin raises the throne multiplier, stays for the round and resets the spins to 4, up to four resets. The multiplier never falls during the round.

Goblins Feast Spins in play: the throne at x6, total win 15.10 so far, 3 spins left. FluxPlays demo test, 3 November 2026.

Explosive versions

Two xBombs during the trigger make a bonus Explosive, which means an xBomb on every spin. The ways counter climbs fast, and the win multiplier grows beside the throne's.

Bonus buy: prices and what you get

Six buys sit in the Nolimit Bonus menu, each priced once for its round, and the rules give an RTP per option. They give no RTP for xBomb x2, and no volatility label per option.

RTP, volatility and max win

The rules put the base game at 96.14%, and every buy sits above that, with Explosive Goblins Feast the highest. The intro labels the volatility Extreme, which the table shows as V.High. The max win is called All Hail the King, and hitting it ends the round.

Our Evil Goblins xBomb demo test

Across all six buys the throne did what the rules promise. In Goblins Feast the multiplier reached x7 as new goblins kept the spins resetting, and the round made $232.50. The Explosive version took the throne from x4 to x8 and grew to 81,250 ways, and two late spins made most of its total. The Explosive tiers were the only rounds that felt like a different game.

In the base game the wins were small: 28 of the 40 paying spins returned less than the bet. No bonus arrived naturally, and neither a Fresh Meat upgrade nor a win near the cap showed up. Over this sample luck dwarfs the maths, so the card is a record of how the rounds played.

The bought Explosive Goblins Feast round settled: 1,183.20 over 12 spins. FluxPlays demo test, 9 November 2026.

Is Evil Goblins xBomb worth playing?

Not as a spinner's game, but yes if you buy your bonuses. Everything that matters happens with the throne occupied, and the menu lets you start there, with a choice between the plain Goblins Feast and the Explosive one that adds bombs. Spending that much on one round is a lot to ask, and the base game offers little comfort while you wait.

Nolimit's Fire in the Hole 3 is the obvious xBomb neighbour, with dwarfs, collect bonuses and a far higher ceiling. Pick it for a coin-collect chase. Choose Evil Goblins xBomb when you want one multiplier to watch climb from start to finish.

In the demo, try the xBomb x2 buy before anything else. It costs the least, and three spins with two bombs each show how rows and the win multiplier grow.
