Cash Bandits 3 Slot Review

The Cash Bandits slots series has been incredibly successful for software developer Realtime Gaming (RTG). Featuring huge jackpots, we were eager to test out the Cash Bandits 3 slot. With its maximum win of $1,150,000 and two progressive jackpots up for grabs, the game lets you jump into a heist and steal a life-changing amount of money. Does this robbery-themed game live up to its prequels? Or is this a game RTG should have kept in the vault? Read our complete review to find out.

How to play Cash Bandit 3

Cash Bandits 3 thrusts you right into the action with its opening animation of an explosion and dollar bills flying everywhere, then keeps you right there by putting its 5x3 grid on the bank you’re robbing. The graphics may use a cartoon style, but they are sharp and bring a little fun to a tense situation. The sneaky but playful music also brings some excitement to your robbery.

Every symbol in Cash Bandits 3 is unique to the theme, which is refreshing compared to other slots that use the same old icons. The symbols depict a range of items and characters you’d expect at a bank heist. Whether it’s a Donut, Screaming Woman, or a Police Car symbol, everything adds to the exciting theme.

The Bandit Wild will combine with every symbol except scatters across Cash Bandit 3’s 25 paylines. This symbol is animated when it lands in a winning combination, another nice touch that immerses you.

As this slot tells the story of a risky bank robbery, it’s no surprise that it’s a high volatility game that’s best suited to players willing to risk more for a significant payout. However, budget gamblers looking for a big win may also consider this game thanks to its minimum bet of $0.01 (although this only includes 1 payline). 

Cash Bandit 3 jackpots and bonuses

Cash Bandits 3 has a Vault Bonus feature which you can trigger when three or more scatter symbols land in your grid. No matter what, you’ll get 5 free spins with a 2x multiplier on all wins.

Once you activate the feature, you’ll get the chance to guess the number passcode for 5 vaults. You’ll get more guesses if you land more scatters to activate the feature.

Depending on which vault you unlock with your guesses, you’ll get up to a maximum of 390 free spins and a max multiplier of 23x. This is where you can trigger Cash Bandits 3’s maximum win of $1,150,000.

As if this wasn’t enough treasure, Cash Bandits 3 also has a progressive jackpot you can trigger randomly at the end of any spin, giving you a chance to claim a life-changing payout.

Cash Bandit 3 mobile options

Sometimes games with high-quality graphics and loads going on don’t work as well when played as a mobile slot, so we were curious to see what Cash Bandits 3 looked like. With HTML5 technology, the slot fits very well on any screen size when you access it through a mobile browser or casino app. Menus and win animations can be a little slow, but overall, this game works excellently on the move.

Conclusion

When the heist was over, and the dust cleared on our Cash Bandits 3 review, we were very impressed with what this high variance slot had to offer. The highlight is the Vault Bonus game, putting pressure on you to guess the right number of combinations to earn more free spins and win multipliers. Of course, the chance of winning a massive progressive jackpot with every spin is a big incentive. 

Not everything goes to plan during a heist, and there are some flaws with Cash Bandits 3. The game’s mobile version can be slow, especially when navigating menus. However, with a maximum win of more than $1,000,000 at stake, plenty of players will be ready to risk it all for glory with Cash Bandits 3.
