Leading software developer NetEnt recently launched Rabid Randy, a highly volatile, hunting-themed slot with a sinister twist. Officially launched on October 8, 2024, Rancid Randy is set in the heart of a dark forest, where a sinister plot unfolds.
The new release combines NetEnt’s signature graphics with a unique gameplay structure, promising an adrenaline-filled adventure.
Rabid Randy
The game plays on 5 reels and a unique 3-4-5-4-3 row layout. Rabid Randy introduces a fresh take on the wilderness/hunting genre by flipping the predator-prey dynamic. The reels feature intense imagery and symbols, including the menacing Rabid Randy, forest animals, paw prints, and more.
Key Features
Rabid Randy includes unique features like the Paw Trap. When paw prints land, they leave teeth-shaped frames on the reels. The frames do not disappear immediately. The anticipation builds as the frames transform into wilds on subsequent spins.
Paw symbols are added to the Collect Meter. The more paw symbols collected, the further you advance towards a progressive multiplier of 1,000x.
Rabid Randy Free Spins and Trophy Room
The real thrill lies in the Free Spins feature, which triggers when three scatter symbols land. Once active, you proceed to Randy’s trophy room—a visual experience where Randy’s true character is revealed. During the free spins, Trophy symbols are present. The trophy symbols are worth between 0.5 and 50x the bet. Each new Trophy symbol resets the free spins to three.
Additionally, each Trophy symbol is added to a multiplier meter. The final winnings from the free spins are multiplied by the free spins multiplier.

Rabid Randy is NetEnt’s signature slot, blending cinematic graphics with innovative mechanics. As a result of player feedback and industry reviews, this slot has gained significant attention, particularly for its high stakes, exciting features, and unique theme. Consequently, it has become a favourite among players looking for an engaging gaming experience.
