Gentleman Thief Demo Slot - Review for Canadians, Demo Play & Payout Info

Introduction

Welcome to Paris and the world of the Gentleman Thief. If you are looking for a romance themed slot, you will be out of luck, so what exactly does this 5x3 reel, 25 payline slot have to offer?

The answer is a classic slot with below-average metrics but a high-value paytable. There is the usual crop of features we would expect from this type of slot, including wilds and free spins. The bonus game is quite generous, offering six picks from eight safes; however, this slot seems tired and missing the spark its title suggests.

Fun money players might enjoy a trip to the capital of romance with a few no-deposit spins here at Slots Temple, but this World Match slots game lacks visual or gameplay appeal. 

Theme, graphics & soundtrack

Gentleman Thief might have a certain retro charm for some but looks woefully old-fashioned in an era of great-looking graphics.

The French accordion soundtrack does a huge amount of the heavy lifting, establishing charm and atmosphere, and there are no royals to make the game look even worse; however, the graphics are flat and uninteresting, using a mashup of styles - from cartoon sketch to photos - that never gel into a cohesive overall look.

The symbols are also quite random, ranging from scrolls and a sarcophagus to busty babes and leering light-fingered Larries. There is even a martial artist to confuse things even further. There is no sign of the diamond that is supposed to be the motivation for the big crime.

There is a decent game struggling to get out of Gentleman Thief, but World Match needs to spend way more time and effort on the visuals.

Gentleman Thief RTP and variance

This slot has medium volatility and a below-average RTP of 94.34 per cent. Given the terrible graphics and average gameplay, we are not sure why anyone would play Gentleman Thief - perhaps its classic features could appeal to new players learning the game?

Gentleman Thief review: our verdict

What can we say about Gentleman Thief? The premise of a major heist on one of the biggest museums in the world, the Louvre in Paris, is sound enough; however, it is let down by the terrible graphics and frankly forgettable gameplay.

Gentleman Thief is a good starter slot due to its classic gameplay. There is a high-value paytable that should appeal to real and fun money players alike; however, this is one gang you are not going to want to hang around with for too long.

If you like the theme, Thunderkick’s Wild Heist at Peacock Manor slot is everything Gentleman Thief isn’t, from the polished and superior graphics to the 96.1 per cent RTP.
