Cops ‘n’ Robbers Slot Review

Cops ‘n’ Robbers Slot RTP, Details & Wager Limits

The Cops ‘n’ Robbers slot simply comes with 5 reels, 3 rows and 20 paylines. Land (sometimes 2) 3, 4 or 5 of the same symbol across a payline from left to right, starting from the leftmost reel and you’ll create a winning combination.

Click on the Total Bet box below the reels and you can choose from 16 different stake levels. These range from 20p to £40 per spin. In some countries, Autoplay is allowed for auto spins. This isn’t available to UK players by the way.

The Cops ‘n’ Robbers RTP is 95.03% which is a little on the low side. The volatility is in the low to medium range. On a scale of 1 to 5, I’d put the variance here are at a 2. This allows for plenty of play with your balance.

With a hit frequency rate of 36%, you’ll get a win in over a third of spins. The max win is 3,750 x your total stake per free spin. The bigger wins will come from the free spins where a potential 5x multiplier can be in play.

Theme – set off the sirens and bag the loot

With a robbery theme, there’s a rather anarchic, cartoon quality to the design in the Cops ‘n’ Robbers slot. Colourful and fun, there’s a slapstick feel to the design here. This isn’t hardboiled downtown Chicago.

Accompanying the action is a soundtrack that seems to have been modelled on the theme tune to the TV cartoon Inspector Gadget. It’s an ideal fit for this slot.

On the plain white reels, you’ll see brightly coloured A to 10 royals, a buxom policewoman brandishing a truncheon and a policeman in uniform. The 2 most rewarding symbols are the police car and the judge. Both pay 0.1, 1.25, 5 or 37.5 x your total stake if you land 2, 3, 4 or 5 on a payline.

There’s also a guard dog which is the wild. This pays 0.5, 10, 100 or 500 x your total stake if you land 2, 3, 4 or 5 in combination. You will also find a trio of scatter symbols.

Cops ‘n’ Robbers Mobile

You can join burglar Bert and chums whether you’re playing on a tablet, smartphone or computer. The simple cartoon visuals are perfect for a small screen. You’ll find the same variety of features regardless of what you’re playing on. The Cops ‘n’ Robbers mobile slot is perfectly playable.

Cops ‘n’ Robbers Bonus Features

Novomatic has packed a cracking range of extras into Cops ‘n’ Robbers. With 4 bonus features, you’ll find free spins, pick me prizes and cash trails here, not forgetting wilds that double the payout when they make up part of a winning combination.

Multiplier Wilds feature

The bulldog with the spiked collar is the game’s wild symbol. This substitutes for all the standard symbols. When it makes up part of a winning combination with a standard symbol, the Multiplier Wilds feature is triggered.

The payout receives a 2x multiplier boost. This means a screen full of the highest value symbols including the wild will lead to a 1,500 x stake payout. If you land 5 wilds on a payline, no multiplier is applied. In that case, you will scoop a prize of 500 x your total stake which is more than adequate compensation.

Free Spins Bonus feature

To trigger the Free Spins Bonus feature, you’ll need to land 3, 4 or 5 of the blue light scatter symbols on the same spin. The more scatters, the more free spins:

All payouts during the free spins benefit from a 3x multiplier boost. That increases to 5x if the winning payline includes a wild. This means you could land max wins of 3,750 x your total stake per spin. As in the base game, landing 5 wilds on a payline doesn’t give you a 5x multiplier but instead the standard 3x multiplier.

Finally, retriggers are possible. This can lead to a further 100 free spins. Unfortunately, these extra free spins are not subject to the 3x multiplier. You can also trigger the other bonus features from within the free spins too (more details below).

Safe Cracker Bonus feature

Land 3, 4 or 5 safe scatter symbols to activate the Safe Cracker Bonus feature. This pick me style game sees you choose one of the safes which will open to reveal a cash prize of up to 100 x your total stake.

If you trigger from within the free spins round, the prizes in the safe are boosted by the 3x multiplier. This means prizes of up to 300 x your total stake are possible.

Hot Pursuit Bonus feature

The game’s Hot Pursuit Bonus feature is a cash trail game. It’s triggered by landing 3, 4 or 5 Cops ‘n’ Robbers logo scatter symbols. Roll the dice to advance Bert the Burglar around the board, collecting prizes as you go.

When the cop catches up with Bert, he’ll face an ID parade. This could result in Bert being freed, being freed with compensation or arrested. If freed, you’ll return to the bonus board. When Bert is arrested and put behind bars, the feature ends.

The maximum win is 500 x your total stake. Again, if triggered from the free spins, prizes are boosted by the 3x multiplier. This could result in 1,500 x stake prizes.

Cops ‘n’ Robbers Review Summary – variety of features make this caper a winner

The first outing for the Cops ‘n’ Robbers slot has proven so popular that Novomatic has created a range of spin off slots, such as Cops ‘n’ Robbers Vegas Nights. It’s easy to see why this series has proved to be such a hit.

However, the best of them is this game. The madcap sound and visuals are nicely done and there’s plenty of variety on offer when it comes to features. It’s all about the Free Spins Bonus feature as there’s a 5x multiplier if a winning combination includes the wild. This can lead to 3,750 x stake wins on every free spin. The other 2 main features are also subject to a 3x multiplier is triggered from the free spins.

Whilst there are better slots graphically with bigger win potential, Cops ‘n’ Robbers is a classic game which is hugely popular in land-based casinos and online. It’s all very silly but this cult favourite remains very playable. Another option is Games Global’s Bust the Bank which has a similar feel.

I recommend Cops ‘n’ Robbers from Play ‘n GO. With the same feel, it does offer 28,960 x bet max wins in the Free Spins feature.
