Crack the Bank Hold and Win Review

Developer Booming Games expands its Hold and Win range of games, where the gameplay revolves around the streak-style respins feature. The latest addition to the series is called Crack the Bank, which takes players on a robbery to crack the vault and steal hidden riches of over a thousand times your bet.

Loading the game takes players right to the action, and you'll find yourself in front of an opened bank vault, full of gold, gems, and cash. In the center is sitting a standard 5x3 reel set producing 20 ways to play on each spin. Overall, Crack the Bank Hold and Win creates a good impression, with high-end graphics, smooth animations, and an interesting theme, albeit not too original. The soundtrack is also on spot, as upbeat funk music puts you in the right mood for a nice catch.

Playable on any device, Crack the Bank comes with a betting range of €0.2 to €100 per spin, which should suit most punters. The volatility tends to the high side of the spectrum, while the RTP is slightly beneath the average level at 95.7%. Anyway, wins should occur fairly often, roughly in 1 out of 5 spins according to a 21.86% hit rate.

Nine regular symbols make up the paytable, including classic A-10 royals on the lower side and coins, dollars, gold bars, and diamonds on the higher side. All symbols pay from 3-of-a-kind and more, and 5-of-a-kind wins are worth 3.5x - 7.5x the bet for low symbols and 20x - 30x the bet for premium symbols. The sheriff badge symbol is Wild, which can appear on all reels and act as a substitute for any other regular symbol in winning combos. More than that, Wilds also have the highest value, paying up to 125x your bet for line wins.

Crack the Bank Hold and Win Slot Features

True to the title, central to the gameplay is the Hold and Win feature, which is triggered when 3 bonus symbols appear simultaneously on reels 1, 3, and 5.

Next is the Free Spins feature, which is triggered when 3 Scatters appear on reels 1, 3, and 5 during the base game. The bonus game operates in a similar way to the base one, but the major difference is that all Wilds turn sticky during the free games. You get 8 free spins, and unfortunately, retriggers are not possible.

Review Summary

In the end, Crack the Bank is an enjoyable slot, with a great theme and enough features to stay entertained during the session. On the other hand, it doesn't offer anything new for the players, sticking to classic Hold and Win respins and Sticky Wild Free Spins. Moreover, the math model isn't overly reassuring as well. Instead, the RTP is a bit low, while the max win is quite poor.

Pros

• Great art work
• Free Spins with Sticky Wilds
• Hold and Win respins

Cons

• Low RTP and max win
• Offers nothing novel
