Outsourced Slot Review

The Outsourced Slot Game

Has Nolimit City fallen in love with the design that dominated Brick Snake 2000? If you played that slot, you know it’s fitted with a cartoonish yet colorful appearance.

But if you’re unaware, you can use the game's free demo, available here, to make yourself conversant with the design and gameplay!

Now, Outsourced takes up an industrial theme, complete with robotic equipment. But Nolimit warns you to keep your hands out of moving machinery and to remember that time is precious, so don’t faff about.

Although the visuals include everything technical, the soothing, easy-going jam makes the game more relatable. Despite the high-tech environment, the rest of the gameplay looks simplistic, with a few buttons finishing the interface in Nolimit fashion.

Symbols and Payouts

I’m unaware if the developer intended this game to be sinister. Or how else would you describe a doll’s head, chopped arm, and an alien head as part of the symbols?

Anyway, you get nine basic paying symbols here, and the objective is to land 3+ of each from the leftmost column to the right. That’s just a hint of the payout rules, but you can access all the rules from the slot’s paytable.

To clarify, don’t forget you can also test the game and learn how to form wins using the demo play linked to this page!

All the low-valued Jacks, Queens, Kings, and Aces in Outsourced pay 0.05x the bet for three and four of the same.

Although the low wins aren’t significant, the Arm, Alien, and Sneaker offer a slight gleam of hope. They pay 0.1x and 0.15x for three and four of the same, respectively. Then, the Gaming Device and Baby Doll’s Head pay much higher as follows:

• Gaming Device - 0.15x and 0.25x the bet.

• Baby Doll’s Head - 0.25x and 0.5x the stake.

This slot also has a regular wild, which pays 0.5x the stake when four wilds land on the reels, and it substitutes for any other symbol except the scatter.

Outsourced Slot Bonus Features

Typical of this developer’s slots, this game doesn’t have many features, but it outsources some of them, including the xWays and xNudge Wild from other Nolimit productions!

xWays Symbol

This symbol can reveal 2 to 4-sizedlow or mid-paying symbols. Additionally, it can reveal a 1-sized blocker. If more than one xWays appears on the reels, all the xWays symbols will unveil identical symbols.

xNudge Wild

This wild can land anywhere on the Outsourced reels and always nudges to become fully visible. The wild multiplier increases by one for every step the xNudge Wild nudges. Also, multiple xNudge Wild multipliers will be additive for a total win multiplier! 

Print Spins

The winning symbol is paid before the Print Spins (re-spins). The winning symbols will disappear, leaving an empty position for new symbols to fill. The multiplier on those positions increases by one per Print Spin.

The multipliers will be counted for regular paying symbols only, and the Print Spins will end when no more wins occur.

If the xWays symbol hits during the Print Spins, its revealed symbol will multiply with the increased multiplier on that position during its payout. The symbol multiplier on the winning xWays position will reset to the previous +1 value.  

Sweatshop & Sweatiershop Spins

Landing 3 scatters triggers 3 Sweatshop Spins that retain any base game symbol multipliers. Meanwhile, 4 scatters trigger 5 Sweatiershop Spins that function similarly to the Sweatshop Spins.

Extra Spin

You can buy an extra spin when an Outsourced round ends. The additional spin will keep the multiplier state of the previous spin’s symbols. The spin’s cost will be based on the multiplier values.

You’ll receive the extra spin choice only if the extra spin’s cost is less than or equal to the previous spin’s win. However, the scatters don’t land during the additional spin.   

God Mode

Chase the MAKS WIN (maximum win) by landing the ‘M’, ‘A’, ‘K’, and ‘S’ symbols on the reels.

Nolimit Booster

You can spend 1.5 times the base bet for 4 times the likelihood of activating the Sweatshop/Sweatiershop Spins and a guaranteed scatter on the second reel.

Further, for 5x and 90x the bet, you receive a spin that starts with x2 and x5 multipliers on all positions, respectively.

Nolimit Bonus Buy

Use this base game feature to buy your way into:

• Sweatshop Spins for 60 times the bet.
• Sweatiershop Spins for 200x the base bet.
• God Mode for 1300 times the stake.
• Lucky Draw for 130 times the stake.

How to Win at Outsourced Slot

Everybody, including the first-timers, can gamble at this Nolimit City slot since its gameplay is evidently simplistic, contrary to the usual Nolimit standards.

The symmetrical four reels and four rows are complemented by 256 ways to win. So, every player’s objective should be to secure winning combinations of 3 or 4 of the same on adjacent reels from the leftmost reel to the right.

The betting range in Outsourced goes from €0.20 to a high of €280.

After setting up an ideal bet, press the clockwise-facing arrow button to start the reels. Alternatively, you can use the “Play” button to ignite several auto-spins and set the autoplay settings.

Use the Flash sign to switch between different game speeds and the Menu key for the paytable and game rules.

Outsourced Slot RTP & Volatility

The theoretical RTP after a prolonged gaming period is 96.08%. Meanwhile, the volatility is high (or extreme, as indicated in the gaming sheet), while the maximum win is 5,000x your bet!

The Concluding Thoughts

Nolimit City has created a modern society slot based on what most corporations practice to enhance productivity. However, the irony of the idea is that this video slot doesn’t enjoy a massive payout, as is usually the case with Nolimit games. Instead, players are up in arms to earn upwards of 5,000x the stake.

Even mechanically, Outsourced is among the less equipped productions from this developer. It doesn’t mean it doesn’t have enough to work with. But they are certainly not to the unending extent employed by this game creator in other slots.

Regardless, the available features are simple for experienced and inexperienced players to comprehend. So, it’s undoubtedly a good choice for anyone looking for a laid-back gambling experience from Nolimit.

The game is engaging audio-visually, but I’d advise anyone who’s a low-roller to venture into recently created games, such as SixSixSix from Hacksaw. That’s because it’s also controversial, easy to understand, and offers a wide array of betting options compared to this Nolimit release.
