Reel Crime #1: Bank Heist

Reel Crime #1: Bank Heist Slot Review

This brilliant online slot machine like many others has an introductory film, full of vibrancy and energy through the impressive of a comic book being brought to life! As you meet some of the shady characters briefly, you hear some energetic pacy music to really get you into the scene of this modern interpretation of a crime syndicate from the 20's.

The main icons to look for are the money bags, police officer and the getaway symbol/bank-safe (depending on which scene you are on). The money bags icon is the symbol to drop the highest award; 2, 3, 4 or 5 across an active payline (from left to right) will drop you a line multiplier of 8, 10, 25 or 750 times respectively. The Police officer and the Getaway/Bank-safe symbols are the scatters available. Spin 3, 4 or 5 across the reels in any positions from a spin to win a prize of your total bet multiplied by 2, 10 or 500 times respectively, however each icon has different repercussions in the game's storyline.

Scatter Symbol

Before you get past the first stage, your options are solely limited to the Tommy Gun where 3, 4 or 5 across the reels will grant you a prize of your bet multiplied by 1, 2 or 35 times. Successfully complete the subsequent bonus game and you will be given the next set scatter icons, which are the police officer and bank-vaults icons. Regardless of what scatter you spin 3, 4 or 5 across the reels in any position will drop you a prize of your total bet multiplied by 2, 10 or 500 times respectively. The last stage grants you two scatters, the dynamite which will trigger free spins, or the getaway icon. The getaway icon works the same as the police officer and bank vaults, to drop you the same possible prizes.

Free Spins

If you are get to a bonus round yet are unable to win the prizes, Reel Crime is generous enough to grant you free spins at the end of the section. Alternatively once you have reached the latter stages you can spin the dynamite symbol across the reels or even the getaway icon to trigger free-spins. 2, 3, 4 or 5 of the scatter dynamite icon will give you 1, 5, 10 or 25 free spins that last of which comes with a 5x multiplier! The getaway icon however allows you to choose a silhouetted gangster, then a bank vault to be able to gain free spins and a multiplier for them respectively!

Bonus Round and Free Spins

Reel Crime #1: Bank Heist is a story in stages. Depending on what stage you are on, you can spin different icons upon the reels and have better prizes to come from them. The first bonus round is triggered by three or more Tommy gun symbol across the reels. You will then be taken to 'Outside the Bank'. With your Tommy gun you have to shoot the objects in front of you to find the secret key to allow you access to the bank. If you are successful you get to the next stage, but if you are not, expect the police to come running and you'll be escorted to your cell... with some free-spins to play with!

To complete the second stage you need to spin at least three bank-vaults across the reels. This triggers the next round of spins that you have to decide on a fixed bet per spin. You are at the main bank-vault where the only way to gain access is to spin three or more bank-vault icons upon the reels at least 9 times to get it open. Don't worry there are more of the bank-vault symbols on the reels to spin AND if you spin 4 or 5, you can take extra numbers off that '9'. Unfortunately, every time there are more security guards on patrol on the reels too. Every time you spin three or more of those, they move a step closer to you and could end up arresting you!

Pass this round and you will be taken to the actual vault where you can choose which of three smaller vaults to blow up with some sticks of dynamite. Collect your prizes and get to the last stage, the getaway! The getaway symbol is on the reels to trigger your escape through the three or more combo and allow you to play with some extra free-spins and multipliers after you've run away. The beauty of this stage is that the scatter dynamite icons also trigger the free-spins sections! Unfortunately the 'Old Bill' are still hot on your tracks and three or more of him across the reels will mean you're caught and put behind bars
