Redtail Robber Cash Vault Heist: Slot Overview
Foxes have long been robbing henhouses and farms in pop culture, but the bushy-tailed baddie in Play'n GO's online slot Redtail Robber Cash Vault Heist has his sights set higher than just eggs. This vault heist sees main character Robbert Redtail take on a city of the future with a suite of high-tech gadgets and more than a little moxie in order to get his furry little paws on the rich stuff. The features accompanying the game aren't as high-tech as the theme, though, consisting of Coin collection antics, a hold 'n' win bonus round, and free spins with a roaming wild symbol.
Redtail Robber Cash Vault Heist answers the question of what Ocean's Eleven would be like if the heist was carried out by one character, and he's covered in fur. Robbert Redtail is the central protagonist, and he stands next to the gaming area, all suavely sophisticated as if he's waiting for a getaway Uber ride. When Coins land, Robbert absorbs them, and there is a chance his gear upgrades. When the bonus round triggers, he is upgraded to his final form, but returns to his initial state when the round concludes. Naturally, his clothing makes absolutely no impact on the features, but is used for a bit of optical amusement. Not only are the cops and robbers in Redtail Robber Cash Vault Heist animals, but the game also has a futuristic look, with a nod to cyberpunk expressed with touches like the tech, the neon-drenched city backdrop, and Robbert's upturned LED collar.
The bet range in Redtail Robber Cash Vault Heist is $/€0.10 to $/€50, with the GO Ultra side bet available. The heist plays out on a 5x4 grid, possessing 20 paylines which line up regular wins starting from the leftmost reel onwards. Rated medium volatile, the RTP has a highest of five possible values of 96.2%.
On the paytable, we find J-A ranks, police badges, wristwatches, fox icons, and a rhino detective. Winning lines of 5 matching royals are worth 3x-4.5x the bet, and lines of 5 matching high pays award 12x-25x the bet. Fox symbols are wild, so they substitute any regular pay symbols in winning combinations.
Redtail Robber Cash Vault Heist: Slot Features
Redtail Robber Cash Vault Heist's extras are made up of Fox symbols, Fox Collect, mystery symbols, a bonus game, the GO Ultra, and free spins.
Fox Symbols & Fox Collect
The Fox symbol may appear on the rightmost reel in the base game. As well as being wild, the Fox symbol may have a multiplier of x2-x10. The multiplier is used to multiply winlines the wild is part of, as well as all Coin prizes and Cashpots that are collected. Coin symbols land anywhere with values of 0.2x-5x. Landing a Fox symbol triggers the Fox Collect feature, paying out the values of all landed Coins.
Mystery Symbols
When mystery symbols land on any reel, they reveal a random Cashpot prize. The four possible prizes are 10x, 20x, 50x, and 100x the stake. Any mystery symbol on the grid will pay out its prize value at the end of the spin.
Bonus Game
Each Coin that lands has a chance of triggering the bonus game. Hitting 6 Coins on the same spin guarantees the bonus will trigger. If free spins and the bonus trigger at the same time, free spins will play out after the bonus. The bonus round awards 3 lives/spins and is played on a 5x4 grid where only Coins and mystery symbols may appear. Whenever a new Coin or mystery symbol hits, the spin count resets. When no more spins can be started, the values of all landed symbols are paid out.
GO Ultra & Lucky Coin
Activating the GO Ultra increases the stake by 50%. If the GO Ultra is enabled when the bonus game triggers, the Lucky Coin is added to the grid. The Lucky Coin moves to a new position after each spin. When the Lucky Coin moves, it either doubles adjacent Coins or absorbs adjacent symbols, removing them from the grid, depending on which side of the Lucky Coin is showing. Diagonally adjacent Coins do not count. The Lucky Coin can win up to 5,000x with the GO Ultra enabled when doubling Coin symbols.
Free Spins
Scatters are present on the three middle reels. Landing 3 key scatters triggers 10 free spins. At the beginning of the round, the Fox symbol is added to the reels and is sticky. This means the Fox Collect feature can trigger on each spin as long as Coins land. Between free spins, the Fox symbol moves to a new position and randomises its multiplier. Landing 3 scatters awards an extra 10 free spins up to a maximum of 100.
Redtail Robber Cash Vault Heist: Slot Verdict
Play'n GO has crafted a visually entertaining title with Redtail Robber Cash Vault Heist, blending an anthropomorphic animal theme with futuristic cyberpunk leanings. Robbert Redtail's changing appearance adds some light humour to the proceedings, and the game's presentation, the neon-drenched backdrop as well as the animalistic goodies and baddies, help create a certain level of futuristic immersion. Heists are pretty common in online slots, but the heist-of-the-future setting and critters instead of human crooks help this stand apart from others in the broader crime slot genre, while keeping the mood light and carefree.
The game also comes with a variety of features, though they're classic gaming components for the most part. Land Coins and Collect symbols, collect Coins, pretty simple, though letting the Fox symbol multiplier be able to boost values is a benevolent touch. A much-needed touch too, since unaltered Coin values are on the smaller side, maxing out at 5x. The mystery symbol values are more enticing, and might be profitable - if Robbert's combining one of his higher-value multis to them. The bonus game is pretty cut and dry, with not a lot going on. Unless you're willing to pay extra for the GO Ultra, in which case the Lucky Coin adds extra suspense to the round, though some gamblers might not be thrilled at having to pay extra to experience all of the features. That leaves free spins, which earn their inclusion by keeping the Fox symbol on the grid at all times with the potential to collect Coins for the entire duration.
The result is a game which should entertain players looking for features they're associated with, set in a high-tech framing, where winning potential reaches 15,000x the base bet. Beneath the animal crime in the future skin are some features that appear in one form or another throughout the studio's work, and beyond. Don't expect futuristic gaming to match the theme, in other words, but there is something here for players drawn in by the sorts of slots Play'n GO produces.
Redtail Robber Cash Vault Heist stand out more for its theme than gameplay, but there is entertainment to be had here for players who enjoy Play'n GO's style.
