Quickspin brings back the outlaws for Sticky Bandits: Wild Return slots

The new sequel introduces 3x3 high-value bandit symbols and an all-new 500x jackpot.

Quickspin is bringing back the outlaws for more gun-slinging action in Sticky Bandits: Wild Return slots.

The sequel to 2017's Sticky Bandit is meaner, leaner and more rewarding than ever before. Look out for the new desperadoes, who can appear as giant 3x3 symbols anywhere on the reels. Trigger the free spins, and these giant symbols even turn into a cluster of sticky wilds.

New to the franchise is a unique jackpot mechanic called the Quick Slot bonus. Keep your eyes peeled on the reels for a dusty old slot machine. If your luck is in, you can watch your win multiplied by up to 500x.

It's been a good couple of weeks for Western slots as we saw the launch of The One Armed Bandit Slots as well as Money Train slots.

Sticky wins and spins await

Trying to outgun the success of the original Sticky Bandits game was a tough job. But it's a challenge the team at Quickspin readily took on. Erik Gullstrand, Chief Product Officer at Quickspin commented:

The first Sticky Bandits is one of the classics in our portfolio – it’s popular with the team at Quickspin, and it also happens to be one of our top-performing slots.

We wanted this game to be bigger and bolder in every way, so we’ve also incorporated a shootout where the bandits turn into Sticky Wilds.

With lofty goals in mind, did the team at Quickspin succeed in making Sticky Bandits: Wild Return slots much better than the first? Let's find out:

Sticky Bandits Wild Return Slots Review: Bad Ass Bandits

One of the key selling points of the original slot was the high-quality HD visuals and spaghetti western soundtrack. Both of which make a welcome return for the sequel.

Visuals: A dusty old saloon, rugged outlaws and smoking barrels - Quickspin have nailed the Western look and feel. Symbols wise, we have your low-value cards and high paying outlaws. Most striking of the symbols is the new flame-haired bandit, who adds some diversity to the style of the game.

Sound: Nothing beats spinning and winning to a toe-tappingly good spaghetti western soundtrack. And this slot doesn't disappoint. The saloon piano in the Quick Slot bonus is also a nice touch.

Animation & Effects: It's once again superb stuff from Quickspin. Land a win and the symbols engulf in a satisfying flame animation. Then we have the bonus round, which pits the gunslingers in a punchy shootout.

Sticky Bandits Wild Return Free Spins: Wicked Bonus Rounds

Everything you loved about the original game is alive and well in the sequel. Only this time, the Sticky Bandits bring a lot more variety to the table.

3x3 Mega Symbols: All of the bandit symbols can come in variable sizes. They can either appear as a single symbol, a 2x2 symbol or a 3x3 mega symbol. The final of the three sizes becomes valuable in the free spins.

Quick Slot Bonus: Land a slot machine symbol on the reels and you could enter the Quick Slot bonus. The mini machine will spin and reveal a coin reward. You will then take these coins and play on a classic one line slot machine. A max jackpot of 500x can be won for matching triple sevens.

Free Spins with Sticky Wilds: Land three bonus symbols and you will trigger 7 free spins. Remember those 3x3 mega bandit symbols? If a mega bandit shows up, then it will turn into a cluster of sticky wild symbols. These symbols will stay in place for the duration of the free spins.

Our Verdict

If you enjoyed the first game, then chances are you will like the sequel too. Our only issue is the removal of the giant wilds in the base game. It was truly a spectacular site landing two of these on a base game spin. And now we are going to have to get into free spins for some of that juicy wild action.
