Join a team of crazy outlaws trying to pull off a wild train heist in Sticky Bandits Thunder Rail, a brand-new Western slot from Quickspin.
Set in the vast Arizona desert, the Sticky Bandits Thunder Rail game follows the Blackwood Gang as they try to rob a locomotive carrying a huge supply of gold. The action starts on a 5x4 grid with 26 paylines — but the expanding reels can transform that into a 7x7 layout with 53 lines while you play.
Sticky Bandits Thunder Rail boasts stylish comic-book visuals, a slick animated intro sequence, and a cinematic soundtrack. The theoretical Return to Player is above average at 96.33%, and the biggest payout on offer is 10,000x the bet.
