Belle’s Bandits Slots
You won’t quite be the belle of the ball when playing this online slot from Genesis Gaming, but you will be a badass belle, which is arguably better; no need for a prince to rescue you. Belle’s Bandits is a western themed real cash slot that has a distinct female edge, making it ideal for the female gamers market that is continuing to grow within this sector. On the flipside, due to the lovely ladies of this slot and their good looks, male gamers will also find something of value when playing this title.
Known for providing ‘visual innovation’, the brand has built a legacy on delivering awe inspiring aesthetics, however we can’t say we were blown away when we loaded up this title. Don’t get us wrong, it’s quality isn’t in question, but the lack of depth it has is. This is a very basic contemporary slot, providing the bare minimum in order to get by. Nevertheless, each of the images are extremely detailed, and the soundtrack as authentic as it comes, helping to make up for missing out on a more engaging design.
Where’s Your Impact, Belle?
This group of outlaws are as deadly as they are beautiful, which is probably why the law is so eager to catch up with them, but let’s for now take a closer look at the style of this matrix. To us it comes as a surprise, for we expected to be showered with lots of in-depth animation, alongside galloping horses, yet what we got is a dusty looking backdrop and 3D symbols. It just feels flat to us, which is a shame because the concept is a clever one, and one that draws in many users due to its unisex nature.
When you look at the grid, you’ll notice that most of the symbols shown are card value icons, which a lot of you will find disappointing; they’re okay during a vintage slot, but not a modern day one. That being said, it does help to identify which are the most profitable symbols to line up, so there’s a little silver lining there. All in all though, the grid lacks any real presence, with the grey texture of the lower paying tiles making this feel like a late 90s, early 2000s online game.
When the Law Catches Up
These ladies may be good at what they do, but eventually the law is going to find them As this is a game though, the result is a lot more joyous than the real life equivalent. Instead of being carted off and put behind bars, you win a selection of free games when you see the sheriff’s badge. Don’t confuse the scatter with the wild, as they’re both law inspired symbols, with the latter being of the sheriff himself.
The minimum bet here is 0.40, while the maximum is 20.00. The scatter brings in money when a grouping between three and five are created, but the icing on the cake is being gifted either 8, 15 or even 20 games when this happens. You get two for the price of one, a characteristic we love, as it feels like a more generous game even despite the medium level of variance available. As you’ve probably guessed, the number of spins is determined by how many icons you match up on those winlines, so the more you get, the better for you.
He’s a Wild One
Also included in the free games is the handsome sheriff wild, though he does something a little different to his base game behaviour. He gifts multipliers of x2 whenever he shows up. So if you get three wilds in one free game spin, you’re looking at a x6 multiplier just in one go, talk about the friendly side of the law! But even in the base game, this gentleman has his uses, making this a wild you won’t soon forget.
When he forms a winning line, and is subbing other symbols, the win you will receive is increased in size. In truth, lots of slot machines have started to use this tactic, and so the novelty may be lost on you, but for us, having such a giving wild makes the diversity of the game feel more far reaching. Genesis Gaming haven’t made a high variance title here, but they’ve combated that by making sure that what they do include goes a long way.
There's More Than One Way to Skin a Cat
So you’re loving this title and are sad that you’ve exhausted all its gameplay? Well, how about you take on another beast, though arguably one with a greater risk factor - Dragon Slayers is a 1024 ways to play game just like Belle’s Bandits, and it has the same matrix layout, and the number of free games you can receive. It could be your home from home, so to speak. And best of all, although you’re getting a similar experience, there’s something new to sink your teeth into as the theme and style is so dramatically different.
Bang Bang He Shot Me Down
Belle’s Bandits isn’t a wow type of game, you’ll be able to see that much for yourselves, but to write it off as lesser because of that fact would be unfair – this game has lots of value. It’s easy to navigate, mobile friendly, and has a well thought out bonus system that means that users are always catered to. Oh, and you have babes everywhere that the eye can see, which can never be a bad thing.
