Review of Sticky Bandits Slot
The release of this western-themed slot took place in 2017. The narrative centres around a gang of criminals living in the Wild West, making a living by robbing trains. The bandits rely on dynamite, rifles, and revolvers, with their sole objective being money. Players of this Quickspin slot will encounter all of the iconic bandit paraphernalia of that era.
The RTP of the slot machine is 96.58%, with volatility ranging between medium and high. The maximum win stands at x600. Bonus features of the slot include free spins and expanded wilds. Sticky Bandits has several sequels, including a live dealer roulette version.
The playing field features a 5×5 format, with a minimum stake of $0.15 and a maximum stake of $90. Payouts are generated across 30 fixed paylines, the layout of which can be found on the last page of the «Payout Table.»
Among the symbols in the game are:
- Cowgirl
- Bandit holding a revolver
- Bandit holding a rifle
- Money
- Dynamite
- Card Symbols A, K, Q, J
The symbols are listed from the most expensive to the least expensive. A win is formed when three, four, or five identical symbols appear on an active payline.
To initiate the spinning of the reels, a circular button located in the bottom right corner is used. To utilise the spacebar for spinning the reels, the user must activate this function in the «Settings» window.
A list of parameters is displayed when the gear icon is clicked. The autoplay mode allows for the adjustment of the number of spins (ranging from 10 to 1000) and the setting of win and/or loss limits. To activate the quick spin feature, the small button featuring two triangles adjacent to the main spin button must be pressed. The payout table will open when the icon with three lines is clicked.
Features
The unconventional structure of the gaming grid is one of the defining features of the slot. Occasionally, instead of the standard-sized symbols, massive wilds emerge, far surpassing the ordinary symbols in size. When these symbols appear in their full 2×5 format, they completely obscure the reels from the second to the fifth.
Furthermore, the developer has made commendable efforts concerning the graphics. During winning sequences, animated highlights of the symbols involved in the combinations can be observed. The animation is particularly enchanting on the larger symbols—in those moments, one can notice the clothing of the two main characters gently swaying in the wind. The background imagery of the slot features a desert landscape, characterized by mountainous terrain, a railway, and cactuses.
Bonus Game and Special Symbols
The special symbols in this slot machine include Wild and Bonus. The Wild symbol is represented in two variations: a bandit with a revolver and a bandit with a rifle. When they land completely, each of these symbols covers two rows and five symbols on each row. Thus, a single symbol can occupy the space of ten symbols, functioning not only as a wild but also as a substitute. Of course, Wilds do not always land entirely, but even in such cases, they still replace other symbols.
The Bonus symbol in the game is a train. To initiate the bonus round of 7 free spins, the train and one of the robbers (wild) must appear. A unique feature of the bonus round is that the bandit remains fixed in place until the conclusion of the bonus round, significantly increasing the potential for winning combinations. If an additional wild lands during the free spins, it also becomes sticky until the bonus round concludes.
