Cash Squares

Jump around a neon grid for the chance to win instant prizes with Cash Squares, the online game from Light & Wonder. Loosely grouped with online slots, Cash Squares offers a slightly different style of gameplay which just involves a simple tap, and nothing more. With no complicated rules, Cash Squares is an online game that everyone can play for real money payouts. 

Light & Wonder is a studio who specialise in offering online games which don't fit the standard mould. You may have played many online slots before, but have you tried the series of Instant Tap games? That's exactly what Cash Squares is, and it joins a whole series which includes Yahtzee Instant Tap and Cash Pong Instant Tap. 

The set-up looks very similar to an online slot with a 6x5 grid for play. However, there are no paylines or ways to win, and players don't have to match up identical symbols. Instead, the goal is simply to land on positions with cash prizes - it's as simple as that! Betting is placed in the same way, with a stake per game played. This ranges from 0.10 to 30.00 per game, with a maximum potential win of x500. The volatility is low, so you should receive a frequent stream of low-value prizes, which was certainly our experience when playing.

The design of Cash Squares is simple yet striking, with vivid neon strip lights illuminating the screen. There's an 80s vibe with electro-beep sounds and a neon glow but don't worry, there's no need to pull on the leg warmers before you play!

As this isn't a conventional slot, there is no paytable to worry about. Instead, the board is made up from blank spaces, monetary values and special symbols. You don't need to match any symbols, as these reels don't spin. When you click on play, the light will jump around the screen from one position to another. When it stops moving, you'll win whatever prize it lands on. 

Unfortunately, this means that if the light finishes on a blank, you'll win nothing. If the light lands on a cash value, you'll receive the corresponding payout, but you'll get another go on the board. It's hard to get successive wins, but in theory, you could enjoy repeated wins if the light lands on a cash value each time. 

This is a simple gain that doesn’t have a lot of frills or fancy elements to liven up the play. However, there is a bonus free spins round. 

To unlock the bonus round, the light needs to finish on the free spins square. When this happens, you’ll receive five free turns where you’ll still get to keep any of the cash prizes won. There’s nothing extra-special about the bonus round other than the fact that you get to play for free!

Cash Squares from Light & Wonder proves that games don't need to be complicated to be thoroughly enjoyable. This simple concept is surprisingly good fun and is a great way to relax while playing for cash prizes.
