Our analysis

Beheaded is a Nolimit City release that runs on a five-reel layout described as 4-4-4-4-4. It was published on 2024-06-18. The game's documented mechanics include free spins, wild and scatter symbols, plus a bonus buy option, framing it as a modern, feature-driven title from the studio.

The feature list is extensive. Among the named mechanics are the Cut Reel, a Progression Bar, Soul Wilds, three distinct free spin modes in Ayahuasca Spins, Tzantza Spins and Action Spins, and a Pick A Potion element. It also carries Nolimit's signature systems: xBet, a Headful Collection, the Nolimit Bonus Buy and the Nolimit Booster. These elements work together across the base game and the various spin rounds described in its specification.

On the risk side, Beheaded posts an RTP of 96.03% and a volatility rating of 37.8, which is a high figure within the studio's measured scale. The maximum win reaches 15950x the stake, and the bet range spans 0.2 to 100. The combination of an elevated volatility number and a five-figure win multiplier signals a high-variance design where results can be widely spread.

Judging only by the recorded specifications, Beheaded fits a player who is drawn to a dense feature set with multiple free spin variants and the option to buy in via the bonus buy. The high 37.8 volatility and the 15950x ceiling indicate a profile aimed at those comfortable with significant swings in pursuit of large multiplier outcomes, across a stake range of 0.2 to 100. The five-reel 4-4-4-4-4 layout combined with named modes such as Ayahuasca Spins, Tzantza Spins and Action Spins points to someone who values variety in the bonus rounds.
