Safecracker is a Playtech powered slot which is a cross between Channel 4's 'The Bank job and a classic three-reeled slot. Unlike many classic slots it works in various scattered symbols and an ever-increasing top prize, known as a progressive jackpot. Film buffs might compare it to the Italian job, or more recently The Score. We've reviewed safecracker to see if its worth a play.
Safecracker Slot Theme
Safecracker breaks away from the norm in the way it is designed. Many three reeled slots make do with an old fashioned layout whist this one places the reels within a digital safe which you are trying to crack. The reels are surrounded by wires and buttons to simulate the complex workings of a safe, even the buttons are styled to appear like the input keys.
The reel icons are a mixture of swag and safecracking gear. You'll see drills, keys, keyholes, dynamite, money and crowbars. There's also a clever blueprint on the paytable page which shows the slot as part of the safes design, it's so cool!
Betting Options and More Functions
There's a good range of coins to select from which range in value from 0.25 to £/€/$5. Players can choose to bet one, two or three coins which has the effect of boosting potential prizes considerably. A full rundown on the prizes can be seen by clicking on paytable button, which is styled to look like a green light.
Safecracker Slot Features
The bonus game turns you into a virtual safecracker when three keys appear on the reels. This causes the safe to swing open to reveal ten locked safety deposit boxes from which you choose. Seven of the boxes will reveal bonus winnings whilst the remaining three will trip the vaults alarm and return you to the main game. This gives you a fairly positive chance of winning at least one prize when entering the safe.
The dollar bill icon is the only one which pays with a single icon on any position on the payline. All other icons require a combination of three to pay a prize, we guess money really does talk!
