Sticky Bandits Unchained Slot Review
Ah the good old Wild West, a place where justice was often settled with a gun, lay the dry and desolate town of Dustwood. It’s here the evil Reverend Ezekiel led his group of outlaws. Alongside him walked Deliah Tempest, the mistress of deceit, Silas Hoarder, the greedy Undertaker, and Hoofbeats his trusted steed.
Dustwood took a turn when Sierra ‘Sly’ West and Rodeo Rose of Sticky Bandits walked into the saloon, their guns fully loaded and a look of determination on their faces to join forces with Reverend Ezekial and take down the notorious Deputies. Bullets begin to fly and destiny plays its hand in favour of the Sticky Bandits, celebrating their triumph with whispers that carry in the wind.
Sticky Bandits Unchained is the latest rendition of Quickspin’s beloved ‘Sticky Bandits’ franchise that brings 2 old characters to a new Wild West destination, along with their band of outlaws. Get ready for explosive wins and heaps of potential in Quickspin’s latest highly Volatile installment!
Sticky Bandits Unchained Base Game and Features
Sticky Bandits Unchained is a 5-reel Video Slot with 10 fixed pay lines. Wins are formed when 3 or more of the same symbol types land from left to right, starting from the leftmost reel.
This game can be played for as little as £.€0.20 per spin, up to a maximum of £.€100 per spin, with plenty of other options in between the two. Sticky Bandits Unchained has a theoretical RTP of 96.00% and a max win cap of 30,000x.
The highest-paying symbol here is Reverend Ezekial, followed by Deliah Tempest, Silas Hoarder, and Hoofbeats. Low-paying symbols are standard Ace, King, Queen, and Jack. Wild substitute for all High and Low-paying symbols.
Colossal Wilds
During the base game, when 3+ Wild symbols land, one of them will automatically transform into a 2×2 Colossal Wild, triggering 1 of 3 Free Spins rounds. The Colossal Wild will remain Sticky for the duration of the respective feature.
Wild West Free Spins
The Wild West Free Spins round is triggered when 3 Wild Bonus symbols land during the base game. Once active, you will be awarded 10 Free Spins. During this time, all Wild symbols that land will become Sticky for the duration of the round.
Peacemaker Bonus
Landing 4 Wild Bonus symbols in the base game triggers the Peacemaker Bonus. This round does not offer Free Spins, however, the round will end when a Cylinder lands in view.
The Cylinder in this round has 5 Chambers, 4 of which have normal bullets with a x2 Multiplier, and the 5th bullet has either a x3, x5, or x10 Multiplier. These Multipliers are applied to all wins on the last spin.
Peacemaker Bonus Fully Loaded
The Fully Loaded Peacemaker Bonus is triggered when 5 Wild Bonus symbols land in the base game. Like the Peacemaker Bonus, this round does not award Free Spins and ends when a Cylinder lands in view.
The same rules apply here but with one noticeable difference. When a Cylinder lands, it will have 6 Chambers rather than 5. Three Chambers hold normal bullets with a x2 Multiplier, whilst the other 3 bullets hold a random Multiplier of x20, x50, or x500 Multiplier, which are applied to all wins on the last spin.
Sticky Bandits Unchained Bonus Buy
Those outside the UK will benefit from a Bonus Buy option. Quickspin gives players the choice of 3 Bonus Buy options as follows.
- Wild West Free Spins – 80x your bet.
- Peacemaker Bonus – 160x your bet.
- Peacemaker Bonus Fully Loaded – 750x your bet.
Sticky Bandits Unchained: Our Verdict
Moving on from darker times witnessed in Sticky Bandits Trail of Blood, Quickspin returns with a 5th installment to their much-loved series which continues to grip players in an intense atmosphere with exciting gameplay that will have you teetering on the edge of your seat.
Out of all the Wild West slots available, Quickspin’s ‘Sticky Bandits’ franchise is by far the most compelling, and if you weren’t a fan of the Wild West before, there’s a high chance you are now.
Like Sticky Bandits Trail of Blood, the base game doesn’t have much, if any, appeal, yet there’s plenty to be desired in the multiple Free Spins rounds. The stars of the show are Sticky Wilds and the 2×2 Colossal Wild that joins you in each Free Spins round.
The Colossal Wild locks into position and remains in place for the duration of the round, further locking in additional Wilds that land during this time. During both the Peacemaker Bonuses, the Cylinder Multipliers are a great way to enhance your win and edge you closer to the 30,000x max win, but you don’t want them to pop up prematurely, thus ending the round before it’s even begun!
Sticky Bandits Unchained will be available to play at new slot sites in the UK when it releases!
