We've now told you about the summary, intro, graphics, music, and sound effects. Next up, are the key game features of the Cash Crew slot game.
At OLBG we write slot games reviews that include up-to-date info about essential features such as the theme, paylines and reels, bet range, and bonuses. I’ll complete the review by talking about my play experience, first impressions and expert verdict.
Theme – Crime
The Gotham City vibe has already been mentioned, and it helps create the story of this desolate, crime-ridden city. In the background you'll see 2 scary-looking bank robbers, wearing masks, black suits, and overcoats. The grey, foreboding city skyscrapers can be seen in the backdrop as lightning flashes and a downpour of rain lashes down. A smidgen of colour is used in the game, cleverly placed on the robbers' ties and on the symbols on the reel.
You explode your way into the bonus rounds by pressing 'click to detonate' where you flip into an underground bank vault where the countdown is on to grab the loot. On the reels, the highest value character symbol is the Multipliers Wild symbol. This is then followed by the man with a green background, a robber with a red background, a robber with a yellow background, a robber with a purple background and finally the robber with a green background. The standard symbols of J, K, Q and A follow which all have the same value.
Reels
The Cash Crew slot game is made up of 5 reels and 5 rows.
Paylines
There are 14 paylines available for the Cash Crew game
RTP
Return to Player, most commonly referred to as RTP, is a way of measuring what percentage of players' stakes will be returned to them over the long term. The higher the number the better! Cash Crew is just over average at 96.26%.
Hacksaw Gaming uses this RTP figure as a default value, so if you shop around, you’ll discover different rates. To save you a bit of time, we’ve identified a few at some of the popular UK online casinos and added them to our table below.
By the way, RTP is just one consideration when deciding which site to play at. You should also look at things like payment options, games, customer support, and welcome bonuses. Our casino reviews consider this information, plus lots more.

Wild Symbol
The Wild is depicted by the Multiplier symbol and substitutes for any symbol in the paytable.
Free Spins
There are 2 Free Spins bonus rounds to enjoy. First, there’s The Vault. You trigger this bonus by landing 3 FS Scatter symbols. You receive 6 free spins plus a bigger chance of landing Cash and Multiplier symbols with higher values. All landed Multiplier symbol positions are activated throughout the feature. This means that a random multiplier will land on every spin. Landing the Stopwatch symbol awards you 1 to 6 additional free spins, which is good going.
The second bonus round is called the High Security Vault. Landing 4 FS scatter symbols triggers this round, where you receive 9 free spins. This has all of the good stuff from The Vault round plus all Cash symbols will have a minimum value of 5x.
Play Experience & First Impressions
The aspects of the Free Spins bonus rounds blended together well. The music and sound effects mixed perfectly with the game graphics. Especially the robber shooting and adding the multipliers at the end and the stopwatch showing any extra free spins awarded. The bonus rounds accelerates the speed of the game, which works well. And, importantly, the rounds are straightforward to follow. When testing out the game, several multipliers landed with some decent amounts, and the Grab' Em appeared many times as well.
The Multipliers Gone Wild feature is a game-changer. The Multiplier symbols are Wild and can substitute for any symbol in the paytable. They also multiply the value of all Cash symbols in a 3x3 area around them if you land a Grab ‘em symbol. This means that your winnings can potentially multiply significantly. The multiplier values are applied to any winning payline they are part of. If more than one Multiplier is part of the same payline, their values are multiplied by each other before being applied to the payline. The possible multiplier values range from x2 to x25, offering ample opportunities for potential big wins. Multiplier symbols with a value of x4 or higher land with a ? and reveal their value when the Cash is collected, which is a terrific touch.
Another feature which is a highlight is the Cash Money feature where Cash symbols award a prize when collected. Cash symbols can display a value between 1x to 500x. Cash symbols are collected if a Grab ’em scatter symbol appears at the same time as at 1 or more Cash symbol so you want to see plenty of Grab' em symbols! Multiplier symbols affect all collected Cash in a 3x3 area around the symbol. If more than one Multiplier lands adjacent to a Cash symbol, the Cash value is multiplied by each adjacent Multiplier symbol, so this can add up depending on what lands.
