Sticky Bandits Wild Return

They say the Wild West never sleeps, and Sticky Bandits Wild Return proves that the outlaws are back with bigger heists and even more daring moves. Created by Quickspin, the game is a sequel to the original Sticky Bandits, a slot that stirred curiosity but fell short on delivering substantial payouts. Thankfully, Sticky Bandits Wild Return remedies some of those missteps, coming in with improved graphics, bolder features, and better gameplay overall.  

The slot plays on a 5x4 grid and gives you 40 paylines to work with, offering a decent balance of volatility and features. Unlike its predecessor, which relied heavily on the sticky wild mechanic, Sticky Bandits Wild Return has added new gameplay elements such as the Quick Slot Bonus and mega outlaw symbols. The minimum bet starts at 0.40, making it accessible for most players, but the action is always high stakes in this rugged desert saloon. 

Quickspin has managed to maintain the signature feel of the original while taking things up a notch. If you’re familiar with Quickspin titles, you’ll notice their usual level of attention to detail is very much present here, with high-definition graphics and sharp animations. For fans of their earlier releases like Big Bad Wolf or Pirates Charm, this one offers a similar mix of visuals and well-crafted bonus features.

Sticky Bandits Wild Return is a blend of the classic and the thematic. On the one hand, there are the classic card ranks, and on the other there are outlaws, bandits and whiskey glasses. A complete paytable is below: 

The wild symbol substitutes for all regular symbols and appears fully stacked, while the three bandit characters can land as 2x2 or 3x3 mega symbols, covering multiple reel positions to increase your chances of potentially scoring big wins. Apart from the wild symbol, Sticky Bandits Wild Return also has a scatter, responsible for activating the Free Spins bonus feature. 

Quick Slot Bonus 

The Quick Slot Bonus is a new addition that separates Sticky Bandits Wild Return from its predecessor. Land the Quick Slot symbol on reel 5, and you’ll activate this mini-game, where you get up to three spins on a classic one-armed bandit machine. If you manage to line up three lucky sevens, you could win up to 500x your stake. It’s a brief but potentially lucrative side feature that adds some variety to the base game. 

Lucky Shot Free Spins 

The main event in Sticky Bandits Wild Return is the Lucky Shot Free Spins feature. To bring this into play, you'll need to get three skull scatter symbols anywhere on the reels. You'll receive seven free spins to start, but here's where the action ramps up: each time an outlaw symbol lands during the free spins, they fire a shot, transforming random symbols into sticky wilds. If these wild shots hit a 2x2 or 3x3 outlaw symbol, all the positions will turn into sticky wilds for the remainder of the bonus round. These wilds stay locked in place, giving you the chance to potentially rack up some impressive wins.

Sticky Bandits Wild Return is just one of an abundance of Western-inspired slots at BetVictor. Thus, players who’ve enjoyed this slot release will also want to check out Sticky Bandits Roulette Live, as well as Money Train and Wanted Dead or a Wild.
