Fisticuffs is a 5-reel, 3-row NetEnt slot with an early-1900s bare-knuckle boxing theme, playing on 10 fixed paylines that pay in both directions. Its main hook is a re-spin feature tied to the ring-bell Wild symbol rather than a traditional free spins bonus.

The Boxing Feature triggers when a Wild symbol lands on the reels: it awards a single re-spin, and any Wilds already on the reels stay locked in place while the rest of the reels spin again, giving extra chances to complete new winning combinations. Because all 10 paylines pay both left-to-right and right-to-left, a single well-placed Wild can complete multiple combinations across the layout in one go. There’s no dedicated free spins round — the entire bonus structure runs through this sticky-wild re-spin loop, which keeps rounds fast and the medium-volatility pacing consistent.
Pros
- Both-ways-pay paylines double how many combinations a single wild can complete
- Sticky Wild re-spins can chain if new wilds land during the bonus
- Medium volatility keeps a steady rhythm of wins
- Simple ruleset with no separate bonus round to learn
Cons
- No dedicated free spins mode, only the wild re-spin loop
- No official max-win figure currently published by the manufacturer
- Only 10 paylines limits combination variety versus 20+ payline slots
