Pragmatic Play releases new cops n robbers themed Cash Patrol video slot; agrees multi-vertical deal with SGA for LatAm expansion
With three clicks of their heels, Pragmatic Play has taken us from Ancient Egypt in Queen of Gods to the big city in its latest release, Cash Patrol. This crime-fighting adventure sees coppers trying to get in front of the crooks who they chase across a 5×3 game grid set amid a windy, night-time street scene.
At the same time as the new launch, the provider expands its reach in the LatAm market after signing a new multi-vertical deal with operator SGA, for its slots, live casino and virtual sports products.
Playable on most devices, the medium volatility video slot has a 96.5 percent RTP and 25 paylines, which players hit wins across by landing at least three matching symbols on adjacent reels starting from the far left. Players help the boys and girls in blue try to nab the bad guys for some big wins in this game that is loaded with features such as money collects, expanding wilds and extra collects, all of which help players achieve the game’s max win of 10,500x the bet.
Symbols & Paytable:
The game’s theme-based symbols include J, Q, K and A royals fashioned as doughnuts as the low pays, which are worth 4x the bet for five-of-a-kind, and a set of handcuffs, a police hat, a stack of cash and a long-hooded vintage car as high pays and worth 5-32x the stake for the same. A gold Wild badge appears on all but reel 1, and substitutes for all regular pay symbols. And a siren Scatter lands on reels 2, 3, and 4 and triggers the bonus round when 3 hit, awarding 8 free spins.
Game Features:
During gameplay, bad guy Money symbols land on reels 1, 2, 3, and 4 and display a random cash value on each spin, while five police character Collect symbols appear on reel 5. When at least one Money symbol and any of the five Collect symbols hit simultaneously on reel 5, one of the following features is awarded:
- Collect – the values of all Money symbols are combined together and awarded.
- Extra Credit Collect – this value is added to the total of all Money symbols then collected and paid.
- Multiplier Collect – value of all Money symbols on the screen is multiplied by the value of the Multiplier Collect symbol, then values are combined and paid.
- Expanding Collect – reels containing at least one Money symbol, expand to fill the entire reel with Money symbols. The added Money symbols take a new random value, with all values combined and paid.
- Respins Collect – when this symbol hits, all Money symbols that are on the screen stay in place and all the other cells respin for a new result. After which, all Money symbol values on the board after the respin are combined and paid.
The free spins mode is triggered by landing three Scatters, and players are awarded 8 free spins as mentioned previously. During this bonus round, Money symbols and Collect symbols are active just like they are in the base game. The difference is, here the value of landing Money symbols is added to a special bonus pot. And at the end of the bonus round, a huge Money symbol fills the first four reels, and reel 5 respins.
