Chicago Bang Bang

You are a law-abiding citizen, I am sure, and your taxes are paid to the last dime. But…

...maybe sometimes you imagined yourself as a gangster, driving full-speed through the streets of Chicago with the cops hot on your tail. Imagine the excitement, the adrenaline rush, tyres screeching and machine guns...

You can find all those in Belatra Games’ new slot named Chicago Bang, Bang! - a gangster-themed game that aims to make you relive the atmosphere of America in the 1930s. 

There’s a wide range of bonuses, free games and risk games included, so you should be in for a fun time. 

Theme

The welcome screen of this game reveals the theme quite clearly, there’s a wanted poster of a mobster named “Govanni Cabone”, complete with a few bullet holes. While you’re spinning the music switches to a hot pursuit theme, and you’ll also be able to hear gunshots and police sirens, depending on where the reels land. 

The whole thing looks a bit cartoonish, if I’d compare it to a movie it would rather be “Hot Shots!” instead of “Once Upon a Time in America”. However, once you get to spin the reels a few times you do get into an enjoyable fun atmosphere. 

Betting Options and Functions

This is a classic video slot with 5х3 reels and 25 pay-lines, and it’s listed as a high-volatility game, so be patient and keep spinning. Once you place your first bet and make the first spin, your adventure on the streets of Chicago begins, you will hear gunshots, see cops and mobsters, Tommy-guns and contraband booze. 

You have to land two or more identical symbols on a line to win, while the Chicago Bang Bang poster is the wild and can substitute for any of the other symbols. 

Features

There are three features in this game, and all three can be just as exciting as a police raid in a bar during prohibition: 

• Free games

The gangster cars are the scatters in this game, giving you free games. When the gangster car symbol lands, the gangster inside will shoot the reel next to it, giving you various wins, depending on the symbol in that reel. For instance, if the gangster shoots a cop you will get five times your bet. If two gangster cars land on the first and last positions of any reel you will get ten free spins, which will automatically be played using the same bet per line as in the main game. 

• Bonus Game

Remember the police raid I was talking about earlier? You do get that in this slot, if the police car symbol lands anywhere on the reels you will enter the excitement of a raid! In this bonus game you will have to shoot wooden boxes and win great bonuses, depending on what’s inside the box. 

• Risk game

Whenever you land a winning combo, you can either take the win or play double or nothing. If you choose to risk it like a real gangster, then you will play a simple game of cards: get a higher card than the dealer and you will have your winnings doubled. Alternatively, the risk game can consist in guessing the color of the card, red or black. 

Conclusion

Chicago Bang, Bang is a very fun to play slot designed by Belatra Games. At first the graphics and sounds can seem silly but once you get to spin the reels a few times you will definitely enter the atmosphere and enjoy it. 

The features add a lot to the excitement and will break the monotony of the spins. So keep paying your taxes in everyday life, but from time to time grab your suit and hat, check your machine gun and have some fun in 1930’s Chicago.
