Syndicate theme and story

This is a Mafia slot in all its glory and centres around three gangs: Gangsters, Mad Boys, and Bad Girls. It has a movie feel and features lots of good-looking characters; however, whether their charm translates into wins is another matter.

Syndicate RTP and variance

This choice of Evoplay slots online has a theoretical return to player average of 95.20 per cent, which is a little on the low side compared with the industry average of around 96 per cent. The maker says the game has ’low high’ variance.

How to play Syndicate

You can’t miss the Syndicate spin button in the centre of the mobile screen; however, in case you need a few more pointers, here are some other settings you might need to find:

1. You can hold down the spin button to set the game to autospin mode, which will set the game to spin the reels automatically without you having to press the spin button. Holding down the spin button will open a menu of autospin options, enabling you to choose how many games you want the slot to spin.
2. At the bottom of the autospin spinning choices is where you will find the turbo mode tab. Click on this if you want to play the game at a faster speed.
3. Click on the gear symbol to access a range of different settings. These include:
   - Sound volume
   - Music volume
   - Visual settings, such as enabling HD graphics
   - Turbo mode
   - Intro settings
   - Swipe mode
   - More autospin settings
4. In this menu, you can also click the coin stack to set the amount you want to bet on each spin. In demo mode, this ranges from 0.1 to 500.
5. The ‘i’ tab gives you access to the game’s paytable.
6. The book tab is where you can read the game’s rules. This gives you all the information you might need about the game and its features.

Syndicate bonus features

Respins

Every spin in this gangster-themed slot sparks a a respin. All the winning combinations become sticky and stay on the reels during the respin, leading to more wins and yet more respins.

Scatters

The game also has a trio of scatter characters in the form of the three gang bosses, Frank, Bonita and Cesare. If you manage to land eight of these characters anywhere on the reels, you will trigger the free spins round. You will get one free spin for each character scatter that lands, up to a maximum of 20 free games. 

Boss Goes Wild

During these bonus games, the scatters act as wild icons that can substitute for others symbols to help you create winning combinations. The gang boss wilds can land on any reel except for the first one and can replace any of the symbols. If you only get six bosses in the first instance, you will still benefit from a respin, even though you won’t trigger the free spins bonus. Who knows what will happen on the respin? It is also worth mentioning that if you trigger the free spins bonus, only the bosses that help you to get there will appear in the free games round.

Wilds

The game also has traditional wilds, which will substitute for all other symbols except the scatter. The wild doesn’t appear on the first reel and doesn’t make an appearance during the free spins bonus when the bosses take over the role.

Syndicate review: our verdict

This is a good-looking game with a well-thought-out theme and some really attractive characters - in every sense of the word. It brings the glitz of the gangster world to your desktop or mobile device, along with some of the danger of the Mafia world. Thankfully, playing this game is not likely to put you in the firing line!

The respin after each win is a great feature, as are the free spins with the Boss Goes Wild bonus. Even if your prize pot doesn’t seem to fill up that quickly, this is a game that makes it feel like it wants you to win.
