Hacksaw Gaming, an online real money game developer based in Malta, has released Le Bandit, a raccoon-themed slot where players have the opportunity to join a silly raccoon named Smokey Le Bandit on his grand adventure to find the hidden treasure at the end of the rainbow, because he is obsessed with leprechauns.

Outstanding visual:

True to its name, the main theme of the slot is player’s pal Le Bandit. In the background of the reels, players may see the aforementioned raccoon holding a lever and glaring at the reels. Additionally, the title may be played on all devices.

To win, players must form combinations of 5 or more matching symbols in adjacent positions on the 6×5 reels, where instead of paylines the game uses a cluster pays mechanic. Simultaneously with winnings, the cascade feature is triggered.

The basic low-value symbols are 10, J, K and A, while the high-value bonus symbols are cheese, trap, bag of baguettes, beer jug and a black hat. A combination of 13 or more low-value symbols is worth 15x, increasing to 25x to 100x a player’s bet for a combination of 13 or more high-value bonus symbols. There are also four-leaf clover, a pot of gold, a coin and a rainbow symbols.

The game has medium volatility, a default RTP of 96.34% and a maximum win of 10,000x a player’s bet.

Slot features:

Super Cascade – each time a players land a winning cluster, the paying symbols vanish from their positions, leaving the positions empty. Then, new symbols fall down to fill said positions and make new winning clusters. This feature stops when there are no more winning clusters in sight.

Wild Symbol – Wild, aka the wanted poster displaying a raccoon on it, helps to enable more winning combinations by replacing regular symbols other than Scatter, coin, rainbow, four-leaf clover and pot of gold.

Golden Squares – each time players make a winning combination, golden squares will light up behind the symbols used in a combination. Additionally, if players have a rainbow symbol on the reels, it will trigger these gold squares, which will display bronze, silver or gold coins.

• Bronze Coins – these possess values of 0,2x, 0,5x, 1x, 2x, 3x or 4x;
• Silver Coins – these posses values of 5x, 10x, 15x or 20x;
• Gold Coins – those possess values of 25x, 50x, 100x, 250x or 500x.

As soon as all gold frames are unveiled with coins, the four-leaf clover will multiply their worth by 2x, 3x, 4x, 5x or 10x. Furthermore, when this happens, the pot of gold will generate values from all the coins and pot of gold symbols on the reels to preserve their worth and re-trigger the golden squares. However, this accumulation process will carry on if the golden squares unveil the newest pot of gold symbols. Once the spin is complete, each pot of gold and coin symbols will be evaluated and paid out.

Luck Of The Bandit – if players land 3 Scatters, aka polaroid camera, this feature is triggered. Upon activation, players are rewarded with 8 free spins. Additionally, they will get 2 or 4 additional free spins if they land 2 or 3 Scatters throughout the spins.

During this feature, each golden square stays emphasized between spins till they are triggered by a rainbow symbol. Furthermore, if players land 4 Scatters, this mode advances to All That Glitters Is Gold which then grants players with 4 additional free spins.

All That Glitters Is Gold – this one is triggered if players land 4 Scatters, which then rewards them with 12 free spins.

As for the golden squares, they will remain emphasized during the feature, even if triggered by rainbow symbols.

Treasure At The End Of The Rainbow – 5 scatters are required to trigger this feature, which welcomes players with 12 free spins.
