Inspector

This slot offers a cartoonish style, which for some of us will certainly bring back memories of tv-shows of the past, though I can’t exactly put my finger on which one. Perhaps Pink Panther? That aside, the slot offers some nontraditional slot play, with a three times three grid setup. The first feel and look are refreshing, yet a closer inspection is needed to find out the true qualities of this slot. Read below to find out more.

Theme

The reels are to be found on a street corner, where the inspector moves around trying to find clues. A light rainfall and the dark night fill in to give the game a mysterious feeling. The background is well done with the occasional animations spicing up things a bit. The symbols continue with the cartoonish style, with guns, poison, cash and other assorted items found on the reels. There’s no music, but this time there is no need for it either with the ambient sounds driving their purpose.

Betting Options and Functions

The paylines are always active, and they run horizontally, diagonally and crisscross through the grid. The bet is controlled with the total bet selector, with wins and losses converted to credits. Denomination applies. The general bet level is very low.

The wins scale according to your bet, though there is no increase in chances to amount. The relation always stays the same. The basic payouts are quite low, with three crowns paying 125 credits with minimal ten credit bet. This is probably due to the abundance of different bonus features, where the real wins lay. Each win you land launched a respin with an increasing multiplier that resets as soon as there are no more wins had.

Features

There are several different bonus features here, some of them crisscrossing back to other features. Three case files open up the inspector’s notepad, with instant credit wins to be had and with the possibility of launching other bonus features.

In the Stop Thief! feature the mission is to chase down the suspects and apprehend them. Finding clues is important for advancing, and they line your pockets with extra credit prizes at the same time.

In the Suspects minigame, the player needs to help the inspector solve old cases, by collecting valuable information. Again credit prizes are awarded, as well as a chance to gain bigger wins if you solve the case.

There are also two jackpots in the game, with the above-mentioned minigames all having the possibility of leading the inspector to them. Catching the right criminal is again of importance with thousands of credits on the line.

Our Take

Magnet Gaming has produced a top-notch slot with a theme that has practically no competition. The base game doesn’t offer many wins, whereas in comparison the different bonus features quickly rake up credit prizes and chances to land the jackpots. Exciting little game with plenty of potential, and most importantly a very low overall bet level.
