Take The Vault Slots
Welcome to Take the Vault, an amusing action packed online video slot game and upgrade from Take the Bank, created and launched by innovative developers Betsoft in February 2014. Gameplay takes players back in time to the Wild West and a small dusty town in the middle of nowhere where a fearless cigar smoking Bandit is intent on robbing the town´s only bank.
The gaming grid is traditional consisting of 5 reels with 4 rows and 75 active paylines in order to make wins. A minimum of three and up to five matching symbols will yield payouts which start from the leftmost reel to the right. Four fixed jackpots being Grand, Major, Major and Mini can be seen at the top of the reels and any of these can be won several times offering handsome cash prizes of 1,000x, 500x, 100x and 50x players bet respectively.
The visuals are superb with every detail nicely realised and some impressive animation as well as the soundscape brings a lot of rich immersive atmosphere. This is a high volatility game which means less frequent but potentially bigger wins with the RTP (Return to Player Percentage) set at 96.21%. This clearly suits those with bigger pockets and more experience. Less experienced players are advised to game with care and prudence as there can be many dry periods between payouts.
Wagers will need to be placed to get the reels spinning and the betting range offers a variety of options to suit every punter from casual novices to high rollers. Minimum bets start from just $0.20 per spin and upwards to $300.00 for the maximum bet per spin.
The optional AutoPlay button allows for a number of pre automated spins to be set up beforehand and this can help those who are conscious of sticking to a particular gaming budget. Likewise, it is a handy tool for those who prefer more fluidity in their gaming sessions.
The bandit acts as the wild symbol substituting for other gaming symbols with the exception of the scatter and bonus symbols and enhancing winning combinations. It also awards a direct payout of 2.5x the bet for five. Other gaming symbols knit with the genre perfectly with the revolver, safe, gold bars, whisky bottle and banknotes and it is the diamond which offers the highest payouts of 2.5x the stake for five of a kind. The lower paying Ace through to 9 playing cards bring prizes of between 0.25x to 2x players stake for five matches
A variety of unique gaming mechanics bring excitement with the Detonator Countdown which applies for 10 consecutive spins until the bandit tosses 5 and up to 10 shifting wild TNT symbols onto the reels which then explode and enhance potential wins.
The main event is the Hold & Win feature triggered with 6 or more Golden vault scatters landing on the reels which awards players with 3 respins in an attempt to win one or more of the Jackpots. The free spins are activated when 3 or more scatter symbols appear allowing for 15 free spins to be gifted and the repsins can reset every time a new bonus symbol lands and stays sticky. The feature ends when there are no more respins remaining or when the game locks all 20 bonus symbols on the grid.
Players have the option to move directly to the Free Spins with the Buy Feature for more immediate action.
Take the Vault slot is entirely mobile optimized enabling players to dip into the action seamlessly from wherever and whenever they choose. They can game from either a desktop browser or from a mobile device such as iOS Apple, Android or Samsung.
