A New Western Extravaganza Coming Your Way As Quickspin Launches Sticky Bandits Slot
25 August 2017You probably never could have imagined that a Swedish provider would be as daring as to develop a video slot themed on American Wild West, but here we are, face to face with Quickspin’s new release that premiered barely days ago called Sticky Bandits. Before you set on to demonstrate your sharpshooter skills and swipe the dust off your rusty revolver, take a moment to appreciate the never-ending creative force of Quickspin developers, even during their work under the ownership of Playtech.
Sticky Bandits is a 5-reel video slot machine entirely developed in HTML5. And we all know what that means – it can be played on mobile devices, laptops and desktop computers retaining high-performance levels and graphics quality on each of them.

According to Quickspin representatives, Sticky Bandits is about outlaws who are determined to rob a runaway train, as it was customary for the ol’ Wild West days. Set against canyons and hot deserted plains where only cacti grow, the fearless desperados will pull the heist before your eyes. The game clearly wants you to immerse yourself in a world of bandanas, dynamite, rifles, sacks of gold and thrilling spaghetti western music. The graphics are stylish and crispy clean. From what we had the chance to see, half of the symbols on the reels are theme-related while the rest are generic playing card letters.

The game mechanism runs on a 5×5 reel grid and offers 30 pay lines. The great thing about Sticky Bandits is that you won’t just see the protagonists’ faces on the symbols. Base game symbols include three vigilantes, two male bandits, and one cowgirl. However, the slot also features Massive Wild symbols. These show the two main characters in full scale, covering the reels 2 and 4 entirely. But that’s not all there is. Besides acting like standard Wilds and replacing other symbols, Massive Wilds also have a function of a bonus symbol, triggering the bonus round. Sticky Bandits offers one action-packed bonus feature – the Free Spins round. Apart from Massive Wilds that can trigger it, there is also a train bonus symbol. This one initiates 7 free spins when it appears on reel 1.

The mid-August release is the object of pride for Quickspin in many ways. We’ve already pointed out some of the positive aspects of exquisite visuals, dramatic spaghetti western musical background, and innovative half-Wild-half-bonus symbols. Ultimately, you should know that Sticky Bandits feature the Quickspin-patented Achievements Engine. It’s not the first Quickspin slot to feature it, but it is the latest. The fabulous innovation introduces tokens during free spins and exclusive game events set across the Bronze, Silver, Gold and Diamond level. Basically, it allows players to combine various bonuses, and not just free spins but multipliers as well. Looks like Quickspin picked up on the popularity of the Achievements Engine and included the exciting gamification module in Sticky Bandits.
Looking back to triumphant titles developed by the creative Swedish supplier like Leprechaun Hills, Phoenix Sun and Dragon Shrine, Sticky Bandits fits in nicely. Log in to a Quickspin casino and try it out post haste!
