Chicago, bang, bang! Slot Review

Did the Godfather films inspire you to become an old-school gangster? Well, now you have the opportunity of turning that fantasy into a reality, that all plays out on the reels. Experience the rush of being chased by the cops as you try to make a get-away with your loot. As my luck would have it, I would have driven over a pigeon and pulled over to help the poor creature, and have the cops arrest me before I could call my mother.

Gameplay

Chicago, bang, bang! is a 5x3 reel, 25 payline video slot powered by Belatra Games software. Symbols include Royal Card Suits (Q-A), Knives, Bottles of Whiskey, Cop Badges, Machine Guns, a Gangster Character, and Cop Character. Special Symbols include the Chicago, bang, bang! Logo Wild, the Gangster Car Scatter that triggers the Free Games Feature, and the Cop Car that triggers the Police Raid Bonus Feature. There is also a Buy Feature and Gamble/Risk Feature. More detail will be given in the Features section.

As far as controls go, they are all neatly located at the bottom of the reels. From left to right is the Buy a Bonus button with the Menu icon below that expands to the Bet, Sound, Language, Autoplay and Risk Game Settings, Home, Full-screen, and Paytable. Next is the Credits window, adjustable Bet window, Win window, Auto Start button, and Spin button. On the right-hand side of the reels is the adjustable Lines button.

Features

The features in Chicago, bang, bang! include the Chicago, bang, bang! Logo Wild, the Gangster Car Scatter that triggers the Free Games Feature, the Cop Car Bonus Symbol that triggers the Police Raid Bonus Feature, the Buy Feature, and the Gamble/Risk Feature.

The Chicago, bang, bang! Logo Wild substitutes for all symbols, except the Gangster Car Scatter and Cop Car Bonus Symbol, in forming potential winning combinations.

After each win, you have the opportunity of selecting the Risk button that pops up to play the Gamble/Risk Feature. Here you will have to choose a Red or Black game or Card Dealer Game. In the Red or Black game, if the flashing card lands on the colour you chose, you will double your win. If not, you will lose everything. In the Card Dealer game, if the card that is revealed is higher than the dealer's card, you win double, of not, you will lose.

If you don't have the patience to land the Free Games Feature, buy it via the Buy a Bonus button at a fixed price.
