Brooklyn Bootleggers

Brooklyn Bootleggers Review

The game is set in the Prohibition era, specifically focusing on bootleggers. The game features a 5x3 grid with bottles of whisky displayed on top.

The main objective is to capture character symbols within a Lock Up Frame. The frame can cover 3 to 5 reels. The prizes range from 2x to 10,000x your stake. The best chance to win big is during free spins, where a random sized frame appears per spin and increases in size with each retrigger. However, the largest frame can be elusive.

The highest value symbols are character symbols, paying between 20 to 200 x your stake for 5 of a kind. Wild symbols can land anywhere and substitute for other symbols. Wilds also pay the same as the top-tier symbol if you land pure wild wins.

The Lock Up Feature can trigger randomly in the base game. A frame appears around certain or all reels (3x3, 4x3, or 5x3). You need between 4 and 15 character and/or wild symbols within the frame to win the corresponding prize.

The prizes awarded are 2x, 4x, 7x, 10x, 20x, 50x, 100x, 200x, 500x, 1,000x, 5,000x, or 10,000x your stake, respectively, when you land 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, or 15 character symbols of any kind (and/or wilds) in the frame. The prize payout comes in addition to any regular line wins.

The Tip Off Bonus Round triggers from 3, 4, or 5 scatter symbols, awarding 10, 15, or 20 free spins. The Lock Up Frame feature is active on every free spin. You win 3, 5, or 7 free spins from 3, 4, or 5 scatters on the same free spin. The minimum Lock Up Frame size increases per retrigger, eventually covering the full grid.

Finally, in eligible regions, there is a feature to buy the Bonus Round. This gives you the Lock Up Frame feature on every free spin, and it costs a multiple of your stake.

Review Summary

The game attempts something new with its instant scatter prize concept. The theme is somewhat unique in online slots, offering a refreshing experience. The visuals are adequate.

The good thing about the prizes is that they're made from regular pay symbols instead of scatters. The downside is that you need the Lock Up Frame to collect them. The 3x3 frame is most common, giving a top prize of only a low multiple of your stake. It increases with the 4x3 frame, and the 5x3 frame is rare. It can land you a high multiple instantly, but the frame system is a constraint.
