Bandit and the Baron Bonus Features & Jackpots

The base game of the Bandit and the Baron slot features expanding wilds and the near-miss Bandit respins, which are your key to unlocking the Bandit Bonus feature.

The Bandit Bonus Feature

To activate the Bandit Bonus feature, you must land 3 partial or complete Bandit bonus symbols on reels 1, 3, and 5 at the same time during the base game spin. You will then receive 3 spins where 12 locked and 13 blank spaces will appear on the reels. 

During this feature, the only symbols you will see are the cash symbol, the key, and an upgrade symbol. If you land cash symbols, your spins will reset to 3, which is also the case if you land the key and upgrade symbols on the blank, unlocked positions. 

Moreover, the cash symbol will multiply your stake by up to 25x, and the upgrade symbol multiplies the cash symbols by up to 10x your stake. So if you're lucky, the upgrade symbol could push you to reach the maximum potential win of 25,000x your stake. 

The key symbols will unlock any of the 12 locked spaces. This Bandit Bonus feature only ends once you run out of the respins.

The Bandit Respins Feature

To activate the Bandit Respins feature, you only need to land 2 Bandit bonus symbols on reels 1, 3, or 5. 

Then, the reels where the bandit bonus symbols landed and reels 2 and 4 remain locked in place while the reel without the bonus symbols spins again. 

That gives you a chance to potentially land another Bandit bonus symbol to be able to trigger the Bandit Bonus feature.
