Cash Patrol

Introduction 

Cash Patrol is an online slot from game maker Pragmatic Play. It is played on 5x3 reels with 25 fixed paylines that pay from left to right. There is a wild symbol that appears on reels two to five and substitutes for all other symbols in this online slot apart from the collect and scatter symbols.

The latter appears on the centre reels. When three appear, it pays 1x and triggers eight free spins. There is also a money symbol, which appears on reels one, two, three and four and has a random value, and five collect symbols that can appear on reel five and combine with any money symbols to create different features. These include extra rewards, multipliers, expanding symbols, and re-spin with sticky money symbols.

There are four top-paying symbols: the car, cash, cop cap, and handcuffs. These are supplemented by four lower-value playing cards from jack to ace.

The Who Wants to be a Millionaire Megaways online slot from Big Time Gaming is also available as a free slot here at Slots Temple and has its own slot review.

Theme, graphics and soundtrack 

Let’s continue our Cash Patrol slot review with a look at the theme, graphics and soundtrack. 

The theme of this online slot is a cop chase. A team of city cops is chasing the cash-wielding money symbol baddie, who turns out to be quite good for the player when cops land on the fifth reel. The symbols are cartoon-style but well-crafted, and the backdrop is an image of a mean city street.

The soundtrack keeps players on their toes with a TV cartoon-style tune.

Cash Patrol free spins

Three bonus symbols on the centre reels trigger eight free games. The money symbols and all the collect symbols are active during this phase. All the money symbols landed are added to a bonus pot.

The value of the bonus pot is added as a giant symbol across reels one to four at the end of this phase and a final free game is awarded. If a collect symbol lands on reel five, the bonus pot is paid out. This feature can be re-triggered with no limit on the number of times this happens.

Cash Patrol review: our verdict

We have to conclude our slot review by congratulating the designer for providing clear information on the RTP and variance and excellent information screens. Too often players are left to find their way through the game, but this is not the case here. 

The RTP is healthy and the bet spread wide, making this slot easy to recommend.
