Dublin Up Doublemax (Yggdrasil Gaming) – Review & Demo Play

Dublin Up DoubleMax Slot Information

Dublin Up DoubleMax is a 5-reel, 3-row, 25 payline slot from Reflex Gaming set in an Irish forest. Stakes run from 0.20 to 100 a spin. Scarlett O' Sparklewish sits to the left, and the win multiplier hangs from a tree, doubling on each cascade. The layout uses dark reels against a bright backdrop with a Celtic soundtrack. It runs on desktop, tablet, and mobile without hiccups, and the controls are standard, so getting started takes only a moment.

Low pays are J, Q, K, and A, paying 1x to 1.2x the bet for five of a kind. High pays are a golden horseshoe, green hat, pot of gold, and the Dublin Up logo, worth 2x to 5x for a full line. The Wild is a golden four-leaf clover that substitutes for regular symbols but not the Scatter. Scatters show an Irish landscape with "BONUS" text; land three or more in one sequence to trigger free spins.

Dublin Up DoubleMax Slot Features

Features in Dublin Up DoubleMax cover Pop and Drop Cascades, a doubling Multiplier, Wild Symbol, Scatter Symbol, Faery Magic, Free Spins Gamble, Free Spins, Lucky Bet, and Bonus Buy. Any win pops symbols, drops new ones, and adds at least one Wild. Each cascading win doubles the multiplier. Faery Magic can clear symbols with a win guarantee. Free spins come from three to five Scatters, with a persistent multiplier. You can gamble spins, ante with Lucky Bet, or buy the bonus.

Pop and Drop Cascades in Dublin Up Doublemax

Pop and Drop Cascades trigger on any win in Dublin Up Doublemax. Winning symbols vanish, new symbols fall, and the game inserts at least one Wild into the gaps. If the drop makes another win, the process repeats. Each successive cascade applies a doubled multiplier, starting from x1 on the initial win. The sequence ends when no new win forms, at which point the multiplier resets in the base game, ready for the next paid spin.

Free Spins in Dublin Up Doublemax

Free Spins in Dublin Up Doublemax start from 7, 10, or 13 spins when 3, 4, or 5 Scatters land in the same sequence. The key change is the persistent DoubleMax multiplier, which does not reset between spins. It keeps doubling on each cascading win across the round, which can turn even modest symbol hits into notable outcomes once the value climbs. Free spins are awarded once per trigger; the feature does not retrigger during the round.

The Free Spins Gamble appears when you enter with 7 or 10 spins. A 50/50 wheel can move you to the next tier or wipe the feature. Starting from 7 allows two successful steps to reach 13, while 10 gives one attempt. If you trigger with 5 Scatters, you collect 13 spins outright and there is no gamble. It's an all-or-nothing choice that suits players who want a shot at a longer round.

Lucky Bet and Bonus Buy in Dublin Up Doublemax

Lucky Bet in Dublin Up Doublemax increases the stake by 25% and doubles the chance to trigger free spins. It does not change paytable values. If you prefer direct access, Bonus Buy costs 100x the base bet and awards 7 spins, after which you can still use the gamble to push for more. I found Lucky Bet helpful when chasing features, while the buy option offers a straight shot at the persistent multiplier.

Volatility and Return Dynamics in Dublin Up Doublemax

This is a high volatility slot with a theoretical RTP of 95.5%, which sits a bit below the market average. Hit frequency is listed at 28.43%, so roughly over every fourth spin pays something. Paylines are fixed at 25, and the maths relies on bursts of cascades rather than fat line pays. The base game can feel steady until a chain kicks off, where the doubling multiplier starts to do the heavy lifting.

The max win in Dublin Up Doublemax is 20,024x the bet. In practice, big results lean on building the multiplier early in free spins, then connecting further wins while it holds. The guaranteed Wild per drop helps extend chains. In the base game, the reset keeps things grounded, but you still get exciting patches when multiple cascades land. Bankroll wise, I paced my bets and used Lucky Bet selectively to keep the feature rate up without overextending.

Dublin Up Doublemax Review Summary

I like the DoubleMax mechanic, and here it's paired with bright Irish art and a relaxed Celtic score. Scarlett O' Sparklewish looks a touch odd in motion, but the feature panel and multiplier display are clear. The guaranteed Wild per drop makes chains far more plausible than many cascade slots, and that's felt in the base game. When the counter gets moving, wins can ramp faster than you expect across sequences at times.

Free spins with a persistent multiplier are the draw. Landing 13 spins is where the round starts to sing, though the gamble being all-or-nothing means you need to pick your spots. Lucky Bet felt fairly priced at +25% for a doubled feature rate, and the buy at 100x does what it says on the tin. Value comes from multiplier growth, not raw symbol pays, so patience helps a bit here.

The downsides are clear enough. The RTP is 95.5%, a notch under par, and the variance can test your resolve between highlights. That said, the 20,024x figure is not a fantasy if the multiplier stacks and the grid cooperates. Taken as a whole, Dublin Up Doublemax is a tidy DoubleMax entry with a familiar theme and punchy spikes, worth a spin if you enjoy cascades that can snowball now and then.
