We will come right out and say that Cash Bandits is one of our favorite games. Whether it is the story book style graphics, the wonderful colors scheme, or the amazing jackpots going on all the time, this game is hard to compete with on many fronts. You know it’s great, as it is one of the most popular games on the site, and spawned a sequel. Not many slots get a sequel, which is how you know the original must have been spectacular! We still think this one holds up just fine, however, they are both worthy of your attention.
Some of the headlining features are a major and minor jackpot that go up to $1000, 90 free games that you could win, multipliers that go all the way up to 12 times the prize that you will win, and the standard set up of 25 pay lines. This makes for a wonderful rendition of the classic formula that real time gaming has popularized, easily being one of their best hits yet. If you were to play only one real time gaming themed game, personally, we think this one should be it. It hits all the right notes, and has all the right features.
We got sucked in for hours with this one, and have no trouble recommending it to players of all kinds. We had an absolute blast, and tend to come back to it at least once a month. It really is good enough to spawn a line of games, and if you have played many of these games, you could probably see the influence that this one had on all of them!
What You Can Expect
You can tell by just looking at the title page that this one was made by an expert illustrator. That is the main focus of the game, in all of the graphical elements, gathered around a common theme. It is a sight to see, and even if it was not a slot game, it would still hold its own. There are not many games that can hold up to the level of visual scrutiny that this game cam, and that’s saying something!
You can also expect many of the best features from all kinds of games to make an appearance here. The bonus game is themed around picking a lock to get into a vault, and the multipliers get quite high. You can even get 30,000 times a bet, which is insane. There are also plenty of things you could match, which makes things fun and interesting. We particularly like the doughnut, but that may just be because we are hungry!
You will be blown away by interesting features, but the Jack pots are progressive, and the coin sizes go up quite a bit. It really is a standout game, taking all of the best features from all of our favorite games, doing a better job on the graphics, and it all coming out absolutely splendid!
What They Could Have Improved
Although plenty of what they did here is a sight to see, they could have gone a little further out of their way to add in some interesting features. There really isn’t anything here as far as features go that you have not seen elsewhere. This is true of many games, to be sure, but since we are trying to be critical, that must be sad. There is also no shortage of ways to win here, but it would have been nice if they had done something more innovative with say the number of lines you can bet on. There are a lot of things that easily could’ve done to make the game play match the graphics, and as it stands, it is merely a shining example of slot games you have seen before when it comes to that.
General Style and Presentation
Everything here was drawn with care, in a very caricature of style taking on the theme of theft and police. It’s somewhat like a joking version of cops and robbers, which is an something that you see too often. The novelty of this theme is matched only by the skill taken and read during it, each and every illustration being a joy. We really would pay to have some of these things hanging up on our wall, although we do it that we have odd tastes! Everything here has the tone of a high production value affair, it makes you feel valued as a player, and justified in investing your time.
The colors also feel very well done, being a nice colorful mix that has a bright and cheery tone to it. It is not quite something for a kids film, but it is something a kin to what Pixar does what they make everything look vibrant and beautiful. We really enjoy that aspect of it, and found ourselves jumping at the bit to see more, which makes us glad they made a sequel!
Summing Up the Game
Cash Bandits Slots does a wonderful job in taking a childish theme and making it a game the adults of all ages kind of joy. Even if the theme was not present, however, you would still have a very solid entry in the genre. If you could name one feature that you like in another games, you will probably see it here. This also means that nothing here is all that new, but there is always something to be had when you take the elements of everything else that were quite well, it could’ve been to a decent package. When you have an expert illustrator drawing on top of it all after that, you end up with a winning combination of that is hard to put down. We can recommend it to anyone and everyone interested in a well-made game, and think of you all over to your cells to see why this game was given such a highly regarded sequel!
