The Great Stick Up whisks us away to a city that is ruled by criminal gangs. Created by leading software game developer Pragmatic Play, this slot game invites players to use their detective skills in seeking the treasures hidden in this city that is run by criminals.

The game’s base game builds up the momentum ahead of a rather thrilling bonus game that comes packed with sticky mystery symbols. Lucky players will be able to hit a massive 5,000x their stake.

Built across 5 reels, 3 rows and 20 paylines, this game’s payout percentage stands at an average of 96.30%. It is a highly volatile game so players need to consider their bankroll before firing up this game.

The lowest paying symbols include the treasure map, the pipe, the magnifying glass, the hat, the handcuffs and the banknote bundles. Landing 5 of a kind for these symbols pays between 1x and 5x your stake.

On the other hand, the highest paying symbols include the main characters and the revolver. These pay out between 10x and 50x your stake for 5 of a kind. The game’s wild symbol is represented by the detective.

Verdict

Considering that this game has been created by Pragmatic Play, we would have expected a game jampacked with features. While it lacks in variety of features, there are still a few factors to take into consideration that reel in the big wins.

The game’s design has been well done. You are basically a detective on the hunt for treasures. The base game is as basic as they come. It could have been done with a bit more features to spice it up. The wilds are in play, but there is not enough to make the base game interesting.

This all changes when you land scatters on the reels and trigger the free spins round. The number of free spins awarded is on the smaller side until you realise you can scoop up extra wins by landing more scatters on the reels

The sticky mystery symbols in this round and their increasing value act to the excitement of the game.

It may be a new game, but we would have loved to see something new and extra. The excitement culminates around the free spins bonus round. While this is great and interesting, it may not be enough to keep players interested on a long term basis.
