The setting is Hell’s Kitchen in New York and the time is the late 19th century when Irish gangsters controlled the various criminal activities in this impoverished neighbourhood; The Bowery Boys are the theme of this online slot from Hacksaw Gaming which comes with instant cash prizes, win multipliers and three different free spin modes.
The Bowery Boys plays out on the 6 x 5 grid shown above and its unusual gameplay means that wins are created by landing at least eight matching symbols anywhere in view – those symbols will then disappear and be replaced by more falling in from above, potentially continuing the process.
A gloomy backstreet in Hell’s Kitchen sets the scene for the action with a yellow full moon in the distance barely illuminating the illicit activity going on below.
High value symbols include the chap with the moustache, the kick, the pistol, the canoodling couple and the girl; 10, J, Q, K and A represent the lower values. The alcohol barrel is wild and the special symbols are the Bonus, the key, the strongbox and the multiplier.
The Bowery Boys Bonus Features
Strongboxes
There are three strongboxes which can land on the reels – Small (2x-5x), Medium (10x-25x) and Large (50x-250x); when one or more land on the same spin as a key then that multiplier will be applied to any wins on that spin.
Blasting Bomb Multipliers
These bombs can land on any base game spin and they’ll contain multipliers of between 2x and 100x.
Free Spins
Landing one, two or three of the Bonus symbols anywhere in view will award one of the following free spin options:
- One Bonus – awards ten Strongbox Storage free spins in which up to five strongboxes landing without a key will be stored; any key landing during the feature will open all these boxes and award their multiplier prizes.
- Two Bonus – awards ten Daisy’s Dynamite free spins in which dynamite is collected and stored; when a detonator lands it will explode the dynamite which will award multipliers ranging between 2x and 100x.
- Three Bonus – awards ten Bowery Savings Bank free spins in which every wins awarded to the player but also copied into a vault; the sum in the vault can be won landing a dollar symbol, multiplied by up to 12x when the dice lands or reduced by up to 50% by landing a police badge (you’re paying him off).
In all three modes any bonus symbols landing will award an extra spin.
Verdict
We always enjoy a bit historical narrative and even if The Bowery Boys never existed the gangs of Hell’s Kitchen certainly did; the multiple features all follow the games’ theme of Victorian illegality and it’s designed to the usual Hacksaw high quality. | |
