Grand Patron Slot Review

Don’t you tickle my foot bottom ha ha, baby please
Don’t you play with my nose ‘cause I might ha-choo sneeze
(Bless you)
Well you are the bun and me a cheese
And if me the rice well maybe you are the peas

These poetic and sublime lyrics ✍ đŸŽ¶đŸŽ¶ are part of a song titled Mr. Boombastic by the Jamaican-American singer and songwriter Orville Richard Burrell, a.k.a. Shaggy. đŸŽ€

And unfortunately, this song has been playing in my head since I discovered that one of the features in Grand Patron slot from BGAMING is called Bombastic. đŸ’ŁđŸ’„ But being the kindhearted and generous soul that I am, I thought I’d share my earworm with you.

Gameplay

BGaming has outdone itself with a stunning-looking game. AK-47s and RPGs flank the 5-reel grid, which, incidentally, also has 2 reels that spin horizontally – one on the top and one at the bottom.

Those 2 extra reels are locked, save for a single position, and you can unlock them during Free Spins. More on that later.

And I love the little touches, like the security cameras that move constantly with their red recording lights.

And here’s something I don’t say often –perhaps only ever with rock music-themed games – the tunes are sweet! It’s all chilled guitar vibes which I didn’t even mute.

The game offers 20 paylines, a high volatility rate and the most kick-ass potential payout you’ll see in a while: $400,000! The max multiplier is no slouch either, at 10,000x. As for the RTPRTP stands for “Return to Player.” The RTP describes the total bet amount that a game returns to players over millions of spins, and that figure is represented by a percentage. Table games, such as Roulette, typically have higher RTPs than many slots.

, that’s 96.67%

The game has Wild symbols and Bonus Scatters, and if the latter land simultaneously on the top and bottom horizontal reels, you’ll trigger the Wanted Free Spins round.

Features

SPAWNER:

Land the same symbol on the two horizontal reels simultaneously, and 3 of the same symbols will be added to random reel positions.

BOMBASTIC:

Hitting a Bomb symbol on a horizontal reel triggers this feature. The other symbol represented on the horizontal reel is now the target, and if any of those symbols are on the grid, they’ll be destroyed.

Landing 2 Bomb symbols – one on either horizontal reel – clears the entire grid.

PRISON:

Landing a Prison symbol (a question mark) on a horizontal reel means that whichever symbol is currently on the other horizontal reel will be “put in jail.” Let’s say it’s a box of Cigars.

When Cigars land on the main reels now, they’ll be locked in place for the duration of the round. The more you lock in place, the more money you can make.

WIN MULTIPLIERS:

It’s possible to land a Win Multiplier on a horizontal reel. It will then boost the other horizontal reels’ symbol by its value, or it can boost all line wins that occur straight afterward.

FREE SPINS:

Land a Bonus symbol on the two horizontal reels simultaneously to trigger 12 spins. The horizontal reels can now be unlocked, but you’ll need to land two of the same symbols on these reels to achieve that goal.

So, for example, you land 2 Wilds on the horizontal reels. That initiates the Spawner feature and then the adjacent positions on the horizontal reels are unlocked.

You’ll keep playing until you run out of spins.

ANTE BET:

The Ante BetAn Ante Bet is an option that costs a percentage of your bet but increases your chances of landing triggering symbols that initiate a feature. doubles your chances of triggering the Free Spins round and it costs 30% of your current bet.

However, I used the Ante BetAn Ante Bet is an option that costs a percentage of your bet but increases your chances of landing triggering symbols that initiate a feature. extensively and only triggered Free Spins once in at least a hundred spins. I reckon the Buy Bonus is the better choice, even though it costs more.

BUY BONUS:

Click on the yellow star and you can choose between 3 immediate options:

  • Pay 100x for the Free Spins round (12 spins)
  • Pay 250x for 15 Free Spins, and a Prison symbol
  • Pay 1,000x for 15 Free Spins, and 2 Prison symbols on the first spin

Performance

The game performed with no issues during testing.

Maximum Win

Bet $40 a shot and land the 10,000x max multiplier for a $400,000 payday! You can bet as little as $0.20 if 40 bucks is too much.

Conclusion

Good luck understanding how this game works by reading the info sheet. The standard of English is poor and sometimes confusing, and all the nuances haven’t been listed. Luckily, y’all have me to wade through the mire and explain what’s what.

As for the game itself, I enjoyed the novelty of Grand Patron slot, and there’s no denying that the stats are incredible. Figuring out what’s happening doesn’t take too long; it takes a couple of spins, and you should have the gist of it.

If, however, you prefer a simpler game but still want to be in line for a shit-ton of money – and a low volatility rate, too – then check out Aviamaster – also from BGaming.

It’s what’s known as a casual game, where you fly a biplane from warship to warship, collecting multipliers as you go along.
