Retro Tapes at Razed Casino: what this slot pays
Push Gaming's six-reel, nine-row cluster pays game with Free Spins and Sticky Wilds. RTP 96.47%, high volatility: wins arrive less often and can be much bigger.
Cluster Pays on a 6x9 grid
How the grid works. Retro Tapes puts you in a grid of six reels and nine rows where cassette symbols of different colours cascade downward. You win when five or more matching symbols touch each other horizontally or vertically—no paylines needed. The grid then clears and refills, so wins can chain across a single spin. Released in 2022 by Push Gaming, this high-volatility slot treats you to big gaps between wins, but when they come they can be substantial.
Who should play and who shouldn't. You're suited to Retro Tapes if you've got patience for long quieter spells and funds to ride them out. Bets start at NZ$0.10 and rise to NZ$100, so you can scale to your comfort. The high volatility and strong maximum win mean this slot appeals to players chasing larger payouts rather than frequent smaller wins. If you need wins to come regularly, this game's rhythm won't match your style.
Watch for the sticky wild tape trigger. The Top Charts Feature shapes how Retro Tapes plays when you land three or more Wild Tape symbols anywhere on the grid. You'll trigger between six and twelve free spins depending on how many wilds arrived. During these spins, the wilds and prize symbols that land stick in place while the rest of the grid fills and refills until no new wins form. This stacking process can turn a modest trigger into a substantial payout.

Which RTP applies to your play
RTP is a long-run average calculated over a very large number of spins. Each RTP figure applies only to the play condition written next to it: the standard game, or when you buy a bonus.
RTP 96.47% · Standard game
RTP 96.71% · When you buy the bonus
Your session result stays random whatever the odds
Retro Tapes bonus timing stays unknown. The bonus round can arrive at any point. You might see it within minutes or go through many spins before the Wild Tape symbols land together. No pattern predicts when it will come.
Your immediate outcome cannot be predicted. Every spin outcome is random. The RTP of 96.47% describes long-term results across all players and sessions, not what happens to you today or this week.
Maximum wins stay very rare. The maximum win of NZ$1,000,000 at the highest bet is a ceiling that almost never comes in. Reaching it would be an extremely rare occurrence across many players.

Retro Tapes works best with a plan
Spend only what you can lose. Decide what you can afford to spend on this session and stick to it. Your budget should be money you don't need elsewhere, and it should feel comfortable to lose.
Decide when to stop, then stop. Choose a stopping point before you play, whether you've won or lost. A big win from the sticky wild trigger can feel like a reason to keep playing, but a plan made beforehand helps you walk away.
Use your account's safety tools. Set deposit and loss limits on your account using Razed Casino's built-in tools. These limits sit between you and overspending, and you control them entirely.
When the fun fades. If Retro Tapes stops being fun or you find yourself chasing losses, take a break or use the self-exclusion option. The game will be here later if you choose to return.
