Saddle up with Bandida the Galaxies Most Wanted Outlaw in Leander Games Slot

Bandida online and mobile slot is a funky sci-fi themed casino game that subtly blends together space opera and steampunk to bring you the baddest, if not the cutest, doggone outlaw this side of the galaxy! You ride side by side with the pixie cut outlaw Bandida as she zips across the multi-verse nabbing coins, gold bars and the rare red diamonds this world is known for.

Of course like all true heroes not everyone loves Bandida as much as you do, help her outsmart and outmanoeuvre her greatest detractor, the Sherriff. 

In return for your love and support, Bandida will share her wealth with her favourite sidekick – you!

 Step into the Steampunk Wild West with Bandida

As soon as you load Bandida the background music sets the scene – any Wild West aficionado will instantly recognise the classic guitar strains, however, this has been jazzed up. With a slightly faster tempo and some more techno inspired overlays you know this is a Wild West with spaceships for horses and laser pistols in their holsters.

The actual design style is a slightly flat cartoon with a lot of muted tones to give it that deserted desert feel. It brought to mind a slightly updated version of the Lucky Luke cowboy cartoon from the early 80’s. Who doesn’t want to see Lucky Luke in space?

The overall muted tones help the symbols and their animations to really pop! For example, our protagonist, Bandida, stands out in stark contrast to the rest of the world with her multi-coloured asymmetrical hairstyle, steampunk goggles and pink corset.

The symbols on that fill the reels are:
✓ Steampunk Pistol Wild Symbol – Land 5 of these on the reels for 500 coins
✓ Funky Bandida – The cutest and most prolific thief in the galaxy is worth 400 coins
✓ Stoic Sherriff – This tough guy only has eyes for Bandida but can be ransomed for 300 coins
✓ Red Diamond – Steal 5x rare red diamonds and claim 200 coins from Bandida
✓ Gold Bars – These gold bars worth up to 200 coins on the reels
✓ Gold Coins – Money does make the multi-verse go round, win 200 coins for five of these

The last four low-value symbols are made up of the A, K, Q and J card symbols. In keeping with the steampunk theme, these have been outfitted with all sorts of gears, pistons and pipes! Landing five of these on the reels will bring in anywhere from 50 up to 100 coins for your trouble!

 Who Says Crime Doesn’t Pay?

Bandida has several fun bonus features for you to enjoy – our only complaint is that they seem to take so long to hit. This does leave long stretches of gameplay where its simply just regular reel spins. 

Bandida’s Way feature

When the stars align you and you land 3x Bandida symbols on the first reel you unlock Bandida’s Way. This sees her expand to fill the first reel and suck all Red Diamond, Gold Bars and Coins into her space pistol. Her symbol then replaces them for a chance at big rewards.

Criminal Record feature

Collecting Most Wanted posters from the reels boosts Bandida’s notoriety from Rookie to Pickpocket to Robber to Most Wanted! With each rise in her infamy, you get a chance to unlock new rewards!

✓ Reaching Pickpocket rank will trigger Bandida’s Way feature
✓ Reaching Robber rank will trigger Bandida’s Way & add a 2x win multiplier
✓Reaching Most Wanted rank sees Bandida’s Way triggered & triggers Jailbreak free spins

After Bandida’s Way feature ends and all free spins have been played, her criminal status will reset to Rookie rank, and the fun begins again.

Jail Break free spins

This feature sees Bandida jailed for her crimes and sentenced to nine years behind bars! You receive 10 free spins, and each spin sees 1 year of her 9-year sentence being served!

You can help spring her from jail early by collecting Bail symbols on the reels! Get your leader out of jail early and she rewards you by activating Bandida’s Way which remains active for all your remaining free spins – including retriggered spins!

Bank Vault progressive jackpot

The Bank Vault progressive jackpot is triggered randomly by any player contributing to the jackpot prize pool! The prize pool becomes available to be won when the jackpot is seeded with €10,000 and is guaranteed to be won before the cap of €19,137 is reached!

That’s a pretty tight window, and a lucky bandit could find themselves taking home a massive score for being in the right place at the right time!

 Get Ready to Ride, ‘Pardner’

Leander Games Bandida slot is an enjoyable space opera with easy graphics, a laidback score and fun features. While the slot does have great features you will have to be willing to put in a lot of time to get to experience them all. Reaching Most Wanted rank will require you to have landed 260 Wanted posters on the reels. Given Bandida is a 20 Payline slot played out across a 5x3 reel base this takes an incredibly long time to achieve.

Since Bandida is a medium to high variance slot this will mean long periods of play with few to no wins, all in the hopes of landing a big win or unlocking one of their rarely seen special features.

Bandida slot is ideal for the mature player who has a big budget, or who wants to be online to try to lay claim the Bank Vault progressive jackpot!
