How to play Reel Heist mobile slot
With a dangerously fun theme, this Reel Heist slot will quickly captivate you, but might walk away with the family jewels.
We love casino games that mix the bonus game features with the theme of the game seamlessly; like how you have to defeat the sea serpent to get sticky wilds in Vikings Go Wild by Yggdrasil, for example.
Well, Red Tiger Gaming have managed to do just that with this Reel Heist mobile slot, mostly by just keeping things very simple.
Chase the wild robbers across the screen
As you spin these 40 paylines, you’ll notice that you won’t be winning much with the generic cops n robber slot symbols on screen.
In fact, the only way to really win big is in the special bonus feature.
At any one point, one or more robber symbols will show up on screen, each assigned a generic cash prize of as little as 7 times to up to 2,000 times your bet.
Then the policeman shows up, as a wandering wild, moving across the screen trying to catch the robbers. If you do, you win the prize.
The Reel Heist slot is strangely captivating
We know, in comparison with Red Tiger Gaming’s Lucky Wizard slot, which has 6 bonus features, this one instant cash reward feature seems a little boring.
But you know what? It really isn’t. We’ve watched that copper catch two or three slot symbols across the screen, desperately hoping he’ll catch the one with the biggest cash prize.
In fact, we managed to catch one with 215x our bet win, thoroughly making our day… but only for a second.
You pay for every spin of the chase
The thing you don’t notice as the cop chases the criminals over the 5 reels of this Reel Heist slot online is that every spin these symbols move, you’re paying for.
Granted, the policeman is a wild, so does give you with a win every so often, but don’t forget – there’s not much to win in the base game in the first place.
At least the Lucky Little Devil video slot kept the wins consistent.
We may have won 200 times our bet, but we only walked away up by a third of that as we’d spent the rest chasing the robbers.
Still, we had a great time, and if you can love the thrill of the chase rather than the spin, then this Reel Heist casino game has a lot to offer.

Bonus Features
Wandering Robbers: The robber may appear randomly on the reels, and each will hold a wanted poster with a cash prize.
These rewards range from just 7 to 2,000 times your bet and will randomly move around the reels.
Wandering Cop (wild): The cop appears on the reels at random, but generally when there's a robber to catch.
The cop is also a wild symbol and moves around, helping to create wins wherever he goes.
However, his main purpose is to catch a robber, by chasing around the screen till he lands on the same case as one and gets the reward prize.
Sometimes the cop will throw his baton at a robber, stunning him in place, and guaranteeing that you are going to catch him. Doesn't happen as often as you'd like though.
Reel Heist Review Conclusion
The mobile Reel Heist slot is really good fun, with one big feature that matches perfectly the theme of the game.
If we'd had the occasional break on our wallet, whether with more frequent wins or a good free spin round, we may have given it an extra star.
As it goes, with a max win of 2,000 times your bet for just catching the right man, we expect plenty of casino folks will want to get on the right side of this heist.
If you love slots with wacky themes, we'd also recommend Taco Brothers by Elk Gaming.
