Gremlins Time to Tumble vs Gremlins After Midnight compared

Light & Wonder's two Gremlins slots compared: 2021 cascades and free games against 2026 Hold & Spin and expanding reels, on the figures the sheets list.

By Staff, Spin & Tell

Gremlins: Time to Tumble is a 2021 pays-anywhere cascade slot with a free-games round and a listed 1,666x ceiling; Gremlins After Midnight, released 10 September 2026, is a 20-payline Hold & Spin game whose grid can grow to 5x6 and whose max win no sheet read publishes. Both are Light & Wonder titles under the same film brand.

This note sets the 2021 predecessor beside the After Midnight review and its three listed RTP builds, read on 19 September 2026 from Slotorama’s sheet, VegasSlotsOnline and Slotozilla. No studio page opened that day; the in-game paytable is the copy of record.

What is the RTP of Gremlins Time to Tumble?

It depends which page you read. VegasSlotsOnline’s sheet lists 89.47%; Slotozilla’s copy says 95%, with an 89% build an operator can select. Neither is the studio’s own sheet, and the studio page did not open. The paytable inside the game you have loaded describes your session.

What is the max win on Gremlins After Midnight?

Neither page this desk read on 19 September 2026 prints one: Slotorama’s row reads Not Published and GamblingNews’s metrics box reads N/A. That is a publishing fact, not a claim that the game is uncapped; Time to Tumble carries a listed 1,666x ceiling on Slotozilla’s sheet.

Does Gremlins After Midnight have free spins?

Slotorama’s sheet records no traditional free spins feature; the bonus is a Hold & Spin with three coloured Chicken Bucket modifiers. Time to Tumble has the free-games round, at five, six or seven consecutive winning cascades per VegasSlotsOnline. On free spins the two are opposites.

Neither game was played for this note, and nothing here says which is the better bet. 18+, entertainment with a built-in edge, and the figure that governs your session is the one printed inside the game.
