Reel Gangsters is a game from Topgame sofware I tried out quite recently. I don't recall if I had played this game before, but when I had some spare money in a casino that offfers this game, it attracted me. It has gangster theme, and in it's design I saw everything I expected there to be- though girl, gansgter and guns, police man and money. Since I like themes like this I thought that visually this game looked badass.
Technically this game has 5 reels and 20 paylines and from the layouts I can tell it's one of Topgame's old slots, even the autoplay proves that, so instead of waiting for 10 seconds after a spin on autoplay, I choose to click spin button manually, because waiting on autoplay really frustrates me.
One thing I was clearly upset with was the payouts I received from this game. I played around 1000 spins. At first I played with minimum bets, but after getting the first bonus round I changed them to 0.40€. Reason for that is very simple, bonus round winninngs are multilpied by line bet, so when I played with 0.40€ bets, my winnings would be 0.02x multiplied.
The bonus round in general is interesting, but after getting it more than 10 times it made me bored. The bonus ir tiggered with 3 or more bonus symbols on a winning line. I got the bonus at least once in 50 spins so I think the feature is very easy to trigger. But the payouts from it are poor. First of all, the bonus is a pick me bonus which consists of multiple stages, you have to rob a bank and choose a weapon, key to unlock the bank etc, but with every stage there are increasing amount of "game over". The last stage is where you need to choose a vault, but I've never guessed correctly. Even so, my biggest win on this bonus hasn't been over 10x bet.
In my session the biggest winning I had was around 70x bet, and it was when I had many wilds on the screen. I definitely was expecting more than that, at least 100x bet. Another thing I really disliked was the free spins feature. For 3 scatters you get 5 spins, for 4-10. I managed to get 10 free spins and retrigger them. ButI haven't even once got 10x bet win, so in my opinion this feature is quite upsetting.
Overall I enjoyed the looks for the game but not the payouts and I certainly won't be playing this game again. On base game only once I had a big win and it was from combination of many wilds, but other than that I couldn't even get 10x bet winnings, most of the time I got 3-x-5x bet wins. Both bonusesare quite upsetting because they both have low payouts and the bank heist gets boring. It's a decent game comparing to other Topgame slots, but in general it's average.
