The Bandit and The Baron slot from Just for the Win has a top win of 25,000x your bet with a 96.09% RTP and a low minimum bet of 0.20 a spin, all set on 5 reels and 5 rows of western symbols.
The wild west gets a new head to head – you have the wealthy Baron as the wild symbol and when he shows up, he always stands tall and expands to cover the whole reel.
Then you have the Bandit as the scatter symbol. She’s beautiful, she’s tough, and she stands 2 symbols high. If she lands only partially in view, she can still trigger the bonus game where all the gold is hiding.
Whilst you wait you trigger typical Western slot symbols: a cracked safe, gold bars, gold coins, stacks of dollars, and stacks of coins.
The Spade, Heart, Club, and Diamond fill the rest of the paytable. It’s a slot theme that looks good, if not a standout.
And simple isn’t bad. You have 5×5 grid with 25 paylines with expanding wilds in the base game to keep you going, but no free spins.
Instead, 3 scatters will trigger 3 respin of the second set of reels, where you spin 13 blank spaces, and 12 spaces are locked. This is not unlike the feature in the Money Train slot or even the original Divine Fortune Jackpot slot.
You have 3 spins to get symbols in those blank spaces – mostly cash symbols ranging from 1x to 25x your bet. You can upgrade those by finding and the upgrade symbol or unlock more spaces with a key symbol.
Any symbols that land will reset the spins to 3. If you go three spins without getting a symbol, The Bandit and The Baron slot bonus ends.
How? By getting multiple 10x upgrade symbols on symbols that give you 25x your bet. Is it easy? No. In fact, we rarely won over 50x our bet when we’ve hit the bonus.
But this The Bandit and The Baron slot is a very volatile affair, so of course, it’s not going to be easy to get those big wins. But it shouldn’t be quite so hard.
The good news is that if you have the cash to splash, you can buy the bonus for 100x your bet. And by cash to splash, it can feel like cash to waste.
Ultimately this The Bandit and The Baron mobile slot is a decent video slot with a huge top win, a good RTP, and a wide betting range. But we would probably still rather tell you to go read the Sticky Bandits 2 slot review.

Expanding Wild: The wild will expand to cover the reel and become the 'Baron Wild' if it can create a win.
Bandit Respins: If 2 bandit bonus symbols land on the reels, the other reels re-spin to give you a chance to catch a third scatter.
Bandit Bonus: Landing 3 full or partial bonus symbols trigger the bandit bonus feature. This can only appear on reels 1, 3, and 5 in the base game.
You'll then get 3 spins and spin a brand new set of reels. This has 12 locked spaces and 13 blank spaces. Each time you land a symbol the spin counters reset to 3, if you don't land a symbol in 3 spins, the round ends.
The symbols include:
Buy Bandit Bonus: You can buy the Bandit Bonus for 100x your bet at any time during the base game.
There is absolutely nothing wrong with this The Bandit and The Baron slot.
In the Bandit and the Baron you get 25 paylines over a 5x5 grid, with expanded wilds, scatters, and a respin bonus games that let's you win 25,000x your bet.
So why did we give this slot review only 3 stars? Because for the most part, the bonus game was a little bit boring. Sure, big wins are possible, but it feels like you'd need 1,000 spins to get enough upgrade symbols to get there.
You are watching the boxes spin after spins, with maybe 2x your bet wins, and nothing much else happening. The base game is no more interesting, with the Baron wild showing up from time to time to liven up the place.
The wins are big. The graphics are ok. The features are hard work. For similar gameplay, try the Money Train 2 slot, which has a faster pace.
