Nolimit City
Nolimit City Slots at Slots99: Mental, Tombstone and the x-Mechanics
Nolimit City is the studio behind Mental, the Tombstone and San Quentin titles, the Fire in the Hole series and a shelf of games whose names carry an x: xWays, xNudge, xBomb, xSplit and xPays. This page lists every Nolimit City game in the Slots99 lobby and nothing else, so if a title appears here, you can open it today. All of them are RNG slots, and every one opens in a free demo with no account and no deposit. You must be 18 or over to play for real money.
The studio's calling card is attitude. Nolimit City makes dark, loud and often crude games set in prisons, asylums and frontier towns. It is also widely known for high-variance play, where much of a game's character sits in its bonus features. That reputation is the best reason to try a title in demo first, and it is why this page covers how these games play and leaves slot basics to our all-slots page.
What Nolimit City is known for
Three habits define the studio. The first is subject matter most studios avoid: a psychiatric hospital in Mental, death row in San Quentin 2: Death Row, outlaws and gunfights across the Tombstone games. The second is named mechanics. Nolimit City gives its features names, many of them starting with an x, and puts those names straight into its game titles, so you know what you are getting before the game loads.
The third habit is the sequel. When a game works, the studio goes back to it. That is why you will find Mental and Mental 2, Fire In The Hole xBomb followed by Fire in the Hole 2 and Fire in the Hole 3, and a whole run of Tombstone titles. A sequel keeps the setting, but its features and its maths belong to the new game.
The Nolimit City slots you will find at Slots99
This page shows the Nolimit City games live in our lobby and changes as titles are added. There are dozens of them, from early fruit-style titles to recent sequels, among the 3,000+ slots in the wider lobby. If you are not sure where to begin, these make good first openings, each for a different reason:
- Mental: the asylum game most closely tied to the studio's name.
- Fire in the Hole 2: the mining sequel and one of the studio's marquee titles here.
- San Quentin 2: Death Row: the prison sequel, grim by design.
- Tombstone R.I.P.: the Western series in its grimmest mood.
- Deadwood xNudge: a frontier game built around xNudge wilds.
- San Quentin xWays: the prison original, built around xWays.
- Punk Rocker: the studio's loud, music-driven side.
- Fruits: a classic fruit theme if dark subjects are not for you.
This is a list by style, not a ranking. We do not rank Nolimit City games by payout, and nothing on this page is a forecast of what any of them will pay. For fresh releases across the whole lobby, the new slots page is the one to watch.
Can you play Nolimit City slots free? Yes, in demo
You can try any Nolimit City slot on this page for free, in a demo that uses play credits instead of money. The demo runs the same game maths as the real-money version, so what you see is the game's real character: how the x-mechanics behave, how the features are triggered, how long a quiet stretch feels. What a demo cannot give you is the feeling of staking your own money. The all-slots page covers what demo mode does and does not tell you in general.
How to play a Nolimit City slot, step by step
Nolimit City games reward a few minutes of preparation. Their screens are busy, several features can fire on one spin, and the mechanic names only help once you know what they mean.
Start in demo, at a realistic stake
Open the game from this page and choose demo. Then play it the way you would play for money, at the stake you would really use. A demo played at a stake you would never risk teaches you little about how a real session feels.
Read the information panel before the first spin
Every Nolimit City game has an information panel, usually behind the menu or an "i" button. It holds the paytable, the feature list, the rules for each mechanic, the bet range, the return figure and the variance. Read the feature list first. Knowing which symbol starts what turns a chaotic spin into one you can follow.
Find out what the x in the name does
If the title carries xWays, xNudge, xBomb, xSplit or xPays, that mechanic sits at the heart of the game. Look up its rules for that title, then watch for it in the demo. The next section explains each one in outline, but the exact rules can differ from game to game.
Choose your stake from your budget
With a studio known for high variance, the useful question is not what a spin costs but how many spins your budget buys. Decide the session budget first, then pick a stake low enough to give the bonus features a fair chance to turn up. If a welcome bonus is active, the maximum bet while you wager is $5, so plan around that.
Switch to real money only when you are ready
When you move to real play, keep the stake you tested, set a loss limit before the first spin and stop when you reach it. If the game offers turbo or autoplay settings, check them too, because they change how fast your balance moves.
What the x in the title changes
Here is what each mechanic does, in outline only. Multipliers, limits and other details vary from game to game. Not every x is a mechanic, though: in Das xBoot it is part of a German word for a submarine.
xWays
An xWays symbol lands as a mystery and then reveals itself as a stack of matching symbols. One position becomes several, which raises the number of ways that spin can pay. You will find it in San Quentin xWays, Infectious 5 xWays and the xWays Hoarder games.
xNudge
An xNudge wild lands partly in view and nudges until it fills its reel, and the wild's multiplier grows with each nudge. It drives Deadwood xNudge, El Paso Gunfight xNudge, Bushido Ways xNudge, Warrior Graveyard xNudge and Apocalypse Super xNudge.
xBomb
An xBomb wild explodes and clears neighbouring symbols, so new ones fall into the gaps and a single spin gets more than one chance to land a win. It is the title mechanic of Fire In The Hole xBomb and Evil Goblins xBomb.
xSplit
An xSplit symbol splits the symbols in its path, so one symbol counts as two and the number of ways goes up. In xWays Hoarder xSplit it works alongside xWays, which makes that game a good place to watch two of the studio's mechanics combine on one grid.
xPays
Monkey's Gold xPays takes the setting of Monkey's Gold and adds the xPays mechanic, which changes how certain symbols pay. Play both versions in demo one after the other, and the difference will be plain.
Mental and Mental 2
Mental is set in a psychiatric hospital, and its art and sound lean into horror without apology. It packs several features into one grid, so give the demo a long session before you stake anything.
Mental 2 goes back into the same world. If you liked the first game, play both demos one after the other: the sequel keeps the mood, with features and rules of its own.
Both games deal with mental illness and institutional cruelty in a way some people will find upsetting. If the theme is not for you, the rest of this page points elsewhere.
The Tombstone series
Tombstone is the longest Nolimit City series in our lobby, and every entry is a Western. The original Tombstone sets up the frontier town and its outlaws. Tombstone R.I.P. takes the same world somewhere darker. Tombstone Slaughter, Tombstone: No Mercy and Tombstone Begins carry the run on.
Play the original demo and then a newer entry, and you will see how the studio's design has changed. If Westerns brought you here, the Deadwood and True Grit Redemption games below share the setting, and the Western collection gathers the theme from studios across the lobby.
San Quentin xWays and San Quentin 2: Death Row
San Quentin xWays takes its setting from the American prison and is a direct way to see xWays at work. The tone is grim, and that is deliberate. San Quentin 2: Death Row is the sequel and one of the marquee Nolimit City titles in our lobby, with features and figures of its own.
Prison is a setting the studio returns to, and Folsom Prison is another title in that vein.
The Fire in the Hole series
The Fire in the Hole games go underground. Fire In The Hole xBomb is the original mining game and the home of the xBomb wild. Fire in the Hole 2, one of the marquee titles in our lobby, sends the miners back down, and Fire in the Hole 3 continues the series. Outside the series, Misery Mining stays underground too.
Deadwood and True Grit Redemption
Deadwood xNudge is set in a frontier town and built around xNudge wilds, which makes it a good first game for learning that mechanic. Deadwood R.I.P is the follow-up, with its own feature set, and El Paso Gunfight xNudge is another xNudge Western.
True Grit Redemption brings the frontier into the studio's harder edge, a story of crime and rough justice. True Grit Redemption 2 carries it on.
Punk Rocker and Punk Rocker 2
Punk Rocker is the studio at its loudest, a game that wears its punk attitude in the art and the soundtrack. Punk Rocker 2 is the sequel. If you usually play with the sound off on your phone, try a few spins with it on: in these two, the sound carries much of the mood.
Music and youth culture run through more of the catalogue, in Punk Toilet, The Rave, Skate or Die and East Coast Vs West Coast.
Das xBoot, Tanked and Warrior Graveyard: the battle titles
Das xBoot puts you aboard a submarine, and Das xBoot Zwei! is the sequel. Tanked and Tanked 3: First Blood 2 form a series of their own.
Warrior Graveyard and Warrior Graveyard xNudge share a setting of fallen fighters. The second carries xNudge in its title, so if you know Deadwood xNudge you already know what to watch for. Other fighters on the shelf include Barbarian Fury and Bushido Ways xNudge, which takes xNudge to the world of the samurai.
Real history
A few titles take real wars and the Soviet labour camps as their setting, among them D-Day, Pearl Harbor and Remember Gulag. We list them because they are part of the studio's catalogue, not to make light of the events behind them, in which real people suffered and died. If a subject is too close to home, skip it; if you play, know what you are opening.
Blood & Shadow and the horror shelf
Blood & Shadow is gothic horror in the studio's style, and Blood & Shadow 2 returns to the same dark world with a feature set of its own.
Horror is the studio's home ground. The shelf also holds Book Of Shadows, The Crypt, Possessed, Disturbed and The Creepy Carnival, along with Dead Men Walking, Beheaded and Kiss My Chainsaw. These are some of the most graphic games here. For the studio's mechanics with less gore, see the lighter titles further down.
Outsourced and the satire shelf
Outsourced and Outsourced: Payday point Nolimit City's humour at working life and its shadier corners. They show the studio's satirical side: the same busy grids and named features, with a joke running underneath.
Everyday life gets the same treatment in Nine To Five, Road Rage, Walk of Shame, Gluttony, Munchies and Supersized. Titles such as Karen Maneater, Crazy Ex-Girlfriend and Kenneth Must Die push the joke further. Some of the humour here is crude by design.
The lighter side of Nolimit City
Not every Nolimit City game is dark. The shelf also carries classic and cheerful themes, often with the same kind of mechanical ideas underneath. If you like the studio's design but not its darker subjects, start here:
- Fruit machines: Fruits and Immortal Fruits take the oldest slot theme of all, and the fruits collection has it from other studios.
- Ancient Egypt: Tomb of Akhenaten and Tomb of Nefertiti, with more in the Egyptian collection.
- Myth, luck and a festival: Thor Hammer Time for Norse myth, Gaelic Gold for Irish luck and Oktoberfest for the beer tent.
- Creatures: Ice Ice Yeti, Owls and Bonus Bunnies, with the animals collection for more.
- Space: Space Donkey, Tractor Beam and Brute Force: Alien Onslaught, and the cosmic collection goes further.
- Magic: Golden Genie & The Walking Wild, Mayan Magic and Pixies vs Pirates.
Lighter themes do not mean lighter maths. Check the variance before you decide a game is gentle because its art is.
Nolimit City on your phone
Every Nolimit City game here runs in your phone's browser. There is nothing to install: open Slots99, tap the title and choose demo or real play. The games are made for touch screens.
Some titles feel natural with the phone held upright; others give you more room turned on its side. Try both in demo and keep whichever lets you read the grid and the bet controls comfortably.
If you play from South Africa on a data bundle, keep in mind that a slot usually downloads most of its graphics and sound when it first opens, so the first load is the heavy part. Open new titles on Wi-Fi when you can. Demo play uses data too.
Nolimit City is a studio, not an app
Search for the studio and you will also see "No Limit casino app download". That is a different thing. Nolimit City, written as one word, is a game studio: it makes slots and supplies them to casinos, Slots99 among them. You do not need to download any app to play its games here. Nolimit City supplies many operators, and each carries its own selection; this page tells you what Slots99 carries.
If you are comparing slot studios, our providers page lists the 20+ studios in our lobby. If you like Nolimit City's edge, Hacksaw Gaming and Relax Gaming are worth a look, Big Time Gaming is the studio behind the Megaways mechanic, and ELK Studios rounds out the list. Pragmatic Play, often searched alongside Nolimit City, is a separate studio with its own page and its own style.

Play for fun, and set your limits first
Gambling is entertainment you pay for with money you can afford to lose. It is never a source of income and never a way to win back a loss. With a studio known for high-variance games, losing runs can last longer than you expect, and the limit you set before a session is the one that holds. Set deposit and loss limits, take breaks, and stop when it stops being fun. Our responsible gaming page explains the limits you can set and where to find help.
Nolimit City slots: frequently asked questions
Can I play Nolimit City slots for free?
Yes. Every Nolimit City title on this page is an RNG slot and opens in a free demo with play credits. You need no account and no deposit, and the demo runs the same game maths as real play.
Do I need to download an app to play Nolimit City games?
No. The games run in your browser on a phone, tablet or computer. Nolimit City is a game studio, not the "No Limit casino app" that turns up in searches, and nothing needs installing to play its games at Slots99.
Does Slots99 rank Nolimit City slots by payout?
No. We do not rank Nolimit City games, or any games, by payout or by return, and we do not name a "best paying" title. Each game shows its own return figure and variance in its information panel. What any session pays is random, and with a studio known for high variance, short-term results swing widely.
Are Nolimit City slots high volatility?
The studio is widely known for high-variance games, but we do not label any single title. Each game states its own variance, and a long demo session shows you how it feels.
Is there a five-spin rule in slots?
No. There is no five-spin rule. Every spin is independent, and nothing that happened on the last few spins changes the next one. Advice to play a set number of spins and then switch games is folklore, not maths.
Who owns Nolimit City?
Nolimit City is part of the Evolution group, best known for live dealer games. Its slots still carry the Nolimit City name and style.
Is Nolimit City the same as Pragmatic Play?
No. They are separate studios with different styles. Pragmatic Play has its own page at Slots99, and the providers page lists every studio in our lobby.
Can I use a welcome bonus on Nolimit City games?
Check the Bonus Play list before you start: it shows the games that count towards wagering. While a welcome bonus is wagering, the maximum bet is $5, and the bonus conditions page sets out the rest.
Where do I find new Nolimit City releases?
This page updates as new Nolimit City titles go live in our lobby. The new slots page shows fresh releases across the whole lobby, and Nolimit City's slots open in demo like the rest.
Why are some Nolimit City themes so dark?
Provocation is part of the studio's identity: prisons, asylums, war and crude humour all appear in its titles. If a theme does not sit right with you, the lighter titles on this page offer the same studio with gentler subjects.
