Prohibition

It’s funny to think that once upon a time things like booze and gambling were prohibited, and now that prohibition is nothing but a theme for a gambling game. So times change. This slot is all about the era of gangsters, speak-easies, glitter, and cashing out. The feel and style of the slot is quite cinematic, meaning that Evoplay Entertainment has put a lot of effort into quality.

Theme

Enter a theatre, or a bar, and witness a scene straight from the 1920’s. The style is, at first look, quite impressive, and a bit different from most other slots. After a few spins, you will surely get used to it. The animations are a nice addition to the game, whereas the music and sound effects could have used a bit more work. The symbols are a collection of icons we all remember from the ‘20s, such as gangsters with Tommy guns.

Betting Options and Functions

The betting setup is straight from your standard slot. Twenty paylines running from left to right, five reels with three symbols each, and betting that starts from 0.01 coins per line and goes as high as you want. No surprises here, nor in the fact that the game features quite a high variance.

For setting you have the usual abilities to mute the game, checking autoplay options, and activating faster spins. Payouts are quite nice, as they were back in the day for those willing to take risks. The top three symbols have their five symbol combination pay out between 500 and 2000 times the line bet.

Features

The wild is the wild and works as wilds always do. The scatter in turn activates the free spins, as is usual, with up to 20 awarded at one go. The feature can be re-triggered. Nothing unusual or too exciting here. At the end of the free spins, you can get extra multipliers or extra free spins.

There are two separate bonus games. The first one is activated by collecting handbags, which you can exchange for a pistol, which can be used in the accuracy bonus game. Three or more car symbols activate the cache bonus game. In the cache bonus game, you are looking for a….cache of cash. The player is given five attempts to find the cash, and then credited with whatever he or she found.

The accuracy bonus game is quite similar to the above, with the player given five chances to fire the pistol and hit bottles. Of course, this is completely random when it comes to results. Nevertheless, you get to walk away with everything the bullets shattered.

Our Take

Prohibition is an interesting subject, and the slot does quite well with the source material. There are a few bonus games plus free spins, which should keep most gamblers happy for a bit of time. Not something you’ll end up playing for the long term but certainly worth checking out. You can try the game for free here, or you can simply make your deposit and take the risk of winning for real.
