How it plays
Le Bandit uses a standard 5-reel, 3-row grid with 20 paylines, which is more conventional than many Hacksaw titles — but the mechanics layered on top are anything but routine. The Wanted Wild is the base-game anchor: it lands on a reel and transforms the entire column into a stacked wild, dramatically improving hit potential on any spin it appears.
A persistent Bounty Meter fills as Wanted Wilds land during base play. Filling it progresses towards the free-spins trigger and can award a cash prize at milestone thresholds, giving the base game a secondary reward loop beyond standard scatter hunting.
The bonus round
Scatters award Free Spins with an attached multiplier trail. Each Wanted Wild that lands during free spins advances the multiplier, which applies globally to all wins on that spin — not just the wild-assisted ones. The multiplier does not reset between spins, meaning a late-round sequence of Wanted Wilds compounds the multiplier to levels capable of reaching the 15,000x ceiling.
A Buy Bonus option is available where regulations permit, entering free spins at a cost relative to the stake.
Is it worth playing?
96.21% RTP is solid for the Hacksaw catalogue. The column-wide Wanted Wild means even a single wild symbol triggers a materially different spin compared to a standard substituting wild — it is a satisfying mechanical difference that justifies the slot’s standing in the high-volatility tier.
