Cops n Robbers Smash n Grab Overview

Cops n Robbers Smash n Grab from Inspired Gaming reunites the cop and robber characters from the original series for another go at the vault, running on a 5x3 grid with 243 ways to win.

Two symbols drive everything here. Land the Bonus symbol (a lit bomb) three or more times and you trigger the Wheel Bonus, while landing the scatter symbol (a money bag) six times triggers Free Spins. Both paths lead to the same underlying frame-building system, where marked positions climb from level one to level three before flipping over to reveal cash.

At Slots Temple, under our Best Slots Odds Guaranteed commitment, we publish Cops n Robbers Smash n Grab at the highest available RTP of 94.5%.

How to Win at Cops n Robbers Smash n Grab

Cops n Robbers Smash n Grab pays out across 243 ways to win on a 5x3 grid. A winning combination forms when three, four or five symbols match across adjacent reels starting from the left. The number of ways is calculated by multiplying the matching symbols on each adjacent reel, and only the highest win per combination is paid, though awards from different combinations on the same spin all add together.

The cop tops the paytable, paying 2x your bet for five in a row. The striped robber follows at 1.6x, then the boss at 1.4x, the cash bundle at 1.2x and the police car at 1x. The royals fill out the lower end, with A, K, Q and J each paying 0.5x for five, and the 9 and 10 paying 0.3x. None of these line wins are where the money is, so the real interest sits in the bonuses.

The wild symbol is the Robber, and it substitutes for everything except the Bonus symbol and the scatter symbol. Wilds only land on reels two, three, four and five, so they extend wins that have already started on the leftmost reel rather than kicking them off. The money bag is the scatter and the lit bomb is the Bonus, and those two are the keys to the two bonus rounds.

Features

Both main bonuses feed into one shared engine. Positions on the reels get marked, those marks become frames that climb through three levels, and at the end of the round every frame flips over to reveal cash. The Wheel Bonus and the Free Spins round are just two different ways into that engine.

Reel Modifiers

At the start of any base game, Fortune Spins or Fortune Bet spin, a win announcement can fire before the reels settle. When it does, one of three things is guaranteed to follow. Either three or more Bonus symbols land to award the Wheel Bonus, six or more scatter symbols land to award Free Spins, or a win of 10x or more drops into view.

Every Bonus symbol that lands also adds to a progressive pile, and each addition carries a chance to grow the pile further or award the Wheel Bonus outright.

Wheel Bonus

Land three or more Bonus symbols anywhere in view and you trigger the Wheel Bonus. The number you land changes the wheel you spin. Three Bonus symbols award the full wheel with every feature and Prize Pot in play, four removes the Mini Prize Pot, and five removes both the Mini and Minor Prize Pots.

Landing more Bonus symbols up front trims the prize pool down to better average value rather than making the wheel itself bigger, which is a tidy way of rewarding a stronger trigger without overcomplicating the wheel. The segment sizes on screen are for show and do not reflect your real chance of hitting each prize.

The wheel can land on one of three feature segments, all of which lead into a six-spin round built on the shared frame engine. Go Large fills the reels by sending 2x2, 3x3 or 5x3 supersized scatter symbols spinning through, with one landing fully in view and converting into single scatters that build level one frames.

Bouncin' Bombs sends the Bonus symbols rolling right across the reels, converting positions into level one frames and upgrading any frame a second or third bomb passes over. Golden Safes turns the Bonus symbols straight into scatters that build level three frames, the highest tier, before the six spins begin.

The wheel can also pay one of four pots directly. The Grand is worth 1,000x your stake, which sits well above anything the base game line wins can produce.

Pot Award
Mini 10x stake
Minor 25x stake
Major 100x stake
Grand 1,000x stake

Free Spins

Six or more scatter symbols landing anywhere in view triggers the Free Spins round, and you start with six spins. Ways wins still pay throughout. Every triggering scatter and every new scatter builds a level one frame, and any scatter landing inside an existing frame upgrades it a level. A scatter that lands on a level three frame, the top tier, moves down to the next lowest frame and upgrades that instead, and if there is nothing to upgrade it finds a spare space and starts a fresh level one frame. Fill every space with level three frames and you bank a 10x win on the spot. Land three or more scatters on any spin and you also collect an extra spin, which is the main way the round extends itself.

Cash Collections

Once the spins run out, the frames cash in. Each level one, level two and level three frame animates in turn and reveals its cash value, with the higher levels also able to drop a pot. The safe colour tells you the range you are dealing with. The red safe pays between 0.5x and 1.5x your stake, the silver safe between 2x and 8x plus a possible Mini or Minor pot, and the gold safe between 10x and 250x or any pot at all. Stacking gold frames is where the round builds toward its bigger results, and a board full of upgraded frames is what the whole feature is working toward.

Safe Cash range Pots possible
Red 0.5x - 1.5x stake None
Silver 2x - 8x stake Mini or Minor
Gold 10x - 250x stake Any pot

Fortune Bet

Toggling Fortune Bet on sets a new stake at 1.5x your current bet in exchange for better bonus access. With it enabled, Free Spins triggers on only five scatter symbols instead of six, and a bonus respin is awarded when two Bonus symbols land or when a spin doesn't trigger a feature. During that respin the reels holding Bonus symbols lock in place while the rest spin again, and any ways wins on the initial spin or the respin are paid. The award structure, Gamble entry point and big win thresholds all stay the same as the base stake, so you are paying for easier triggers rather than a different game.

Cops n Robbers Smash n Grab Summary

Cops n Robbers Smash n Grab ties its entire bonus structure to one shared idea, mark a position, upgrade its frame, then cash in once the spins are gone. Go Large, Bouncin' Bombs, Golden Safes and the standalone Free Spins mode all run on that same engine with a different flavour of how frames get built.

Landing more Bonus symbols up front trims the prize pool down to better average value rather than making the wheel itself bigger, which is a neat way of rewarding a stronger trigger without overcomplicating the wheel. The trade-off is a top RTP of 94.5%, which is on the low side, so the value really lives in how often the bonuses land rather than in the base game line wins.

This isn't the only Cops n Robbers title in Inspired's catalogue. Cops n Robbers Bigger Big Money Soccer uses the same characters but runs on a completely different runner and chaser trail mechanic rather than frames and wheels, so it is worth a look if you like the theme but want a different bonus rhythm.
