Le Bandit Slot

Le Bandit: When A French Raccoon Looted My Hopes In It's Bag!

This slot had me feeling robbed of my time and money. I really wanted to like this game, especially after seeing those lucky streamers on Spinz collect ridiculous multipliers from bonus buys. But at last, my experience was a big crashing letdown.

The one bonus round I somewhat enjoyed was "All That Glitters Is Gold" free spins. But even that came at a costly price! I had to fork over an extra $0.30 bet because the free spins were rarer than a raccoon in a tuxedo, not that I'd see such two things going together.

Finally, after what felt like a monotonous eternity, I triggered 4 scattered cameras for 12 free spins. Now, the whole point of this feature is to have cluster pays of 5 symbols that leave behind gold squares, which then stay until the end of the game round. The key is to get rainbow symbols to turn those gold squares into coin prizes, clovers for multipliers surrounding coins and pots to collect the coins for re-rolls and more multipliers. Sounds exciting, right? Wrong!

On my first bonus with the extra bet, I ended up with a measly 20.66x win. Barely any gold coins graced my reels and there weren't enough rainbows to turn those gold squares into a glittering gold mine after completing tumbles. It was like finding a pot of gold only to realize it was filled with loose change of nuts and bolts.

The moral of the story? This bonus is tougher to trigger than a fat raccoon in a stealth mission without the guidance of using bonus bets. And even when you do trigger it, the bonus doesn't exactly "glitter" unless you're willing to splurge on those bonus bets for better odds. 6 out of 10! It's one slot that'll have you feeling like you got fleeced by that mischievous French raccoon.
