We have opened Gearlab Genius twice between 3 Aug 2026 and 22 Aug 2026 on stream and logged the result. The best of those paid 28.3× the bet. That is too few opens to say anything about how the game behaves — it is a record of what happened on those occasions, nothing more.
Hacksaw Gaming sets Gearlab Genius inside a cramped invention workshop stacked with gears, tools and experimental machinery, rendered in a steampunk-meets-laboratory style. Glowing copper pipework frames the 5x4 reel set, and sparks and jolts of electricity punctuate the bigger moments.
The game runs on a Ways payout system, meaning matching symbols pay for landing on adjacent reels moving left to right, without fixed lines. A multiplier field appears on every reel and can randomly light up during a spin, lifting the value of any combination that runs through it. Reels occasionally sync, mirroring an identical set of symbols in the same order across two to five of them, and any reel can instead flip into a Super Reel that turns entirely wild, sharply increasing how often a spin connects.
Free spins arrive from three, four or five FS Scatter symbols, handing out 8, 10 or 12 spins in turn, and each additional scatter that lands mid-round tacks on one more spin. The round can also land in one of two enhanced states: a guaranteed run of synced reels throughout, or that same guarantee paired with a minimum of two reel multipliers active at once for the whole feature.
A tiered buy menu lets players pay directly for better odds or outright guarantees. The cheapest option, at 3x the bet, simply improves the natural chance of triggering a bonus; a 50x purchase locks in a minimum of three synced reels plus two active multipliers from the first spin; a 100x purchase secures synced reels across the entire round; and the top-tier 250x buy pairs synced reels with the two-multiplier guarantee for the whole feature.
Gearlab Genius returns 96.28% RTP in its default setup, with a 94.31% alternate configuration also available, and carries medium volatility with a ceiling of 10,000x the stake. Bets range from 0.10 to 100 per spin.
