Grand Loot Review

Pariplay doesn't seem to lose productivity and kick-starts 2021 a couple of amazing titles. Grand Loot is one of the early releases, a mafia-themed slot, deeply inspired by Relax Gaming's blockbuster Money Train 2. Well, by saying 'inspired we mean a bonafide copy, or a reskin, with some tweaks applied to the gameplay. For those not in the know, Grand Loot is a slot with a decent potential and exciting bonus game, but with nothing to offer in the base game.

Grand Loot - Slot Outlook

It's been half a year since the release of Money Train 2, but it still dominates casino lobbies and keeps many punters all over the globe hooked onto it. The key to the success is the Hold and Win feature with a touch of Relax Gaming's creativity, which ended up capturing the hearts of the gambling community. Grand Loot follows in the footsteps of Money Train 2 and offers a similar experience. Grand Loot plays out in a 1930's American city, presumably Chicago, which was the capital of criminal bands activity back then.

Grand Loot - Reel Screen

The actions take place across a 5x4 reel set with 40 ways to play, while behind it a rainy alley illuminated by street lights reflecting in the puddles with a couple of old-school Cadillacs parked on the roadside makes up the backdrop.

An atmospheric sight indeed. And it gets even more atmospheric as the soundtrack comes live, adding a final touch to the gameplay.

When it comes to the math model, Grand Loot comes with stats almost identical to those found in Money Train 2. The volatility is high, and the RTP is solid at 96.24%. However, you can get lower values depending on where you play, since true to Pariplay's approach, the slot comes in different RTP versions. Hence, be sure to check the paytables before depositing.

Anyway, wins should occur fairly often for the hit rate is decent at 21.53%, meaning that every fifth spin will theoretically be a winning one. What's more, like the Money Train 2 slot, Grand Loot comes with an impressive potential of 50,000x the stake.

As we head over to the paytable, we get 8 regular symbols, split into two categories. Lows are made up of whiskey, cigars, pistols, and newspapers, while premiums include posh cars, bouncer, gangster, and mafia boss. All symbols pay out for three-of-a-kind wins and more, and full combo wins are worth from 1x to 1.6x for low-pays, and 2,4x to 4x for highs. A gorgeous femme fatale is the Wild symbol, which acts as a substitute for any other regular symbols and pays 10x for 5-of-a-kind wins. Moreover, Wilds can appear in Stacks up to 1x4 in size.

Grand Loot - Bonus Features

Speaking of bonus features, Grand Loot can't boast a broad variety of extras. To be more precise, you won't find any bonus features in the base game as the slot relies heavily on the bonus game, which is the only feature implemented here. Anyway, you can't say that Grand Loot is dull since bonus pops up pretty often and delivers a solid dose of excitement, as well as decent rewards.

Whenever 6 or more Scatter symbols appear simultaneously on any base game spin, the Grand Loot Bonus feature comes into play.

Players will then proceed to a new type of reel set with 3 spins to start, where blanks, cash values, and premium are the only symbols that are available. Once players hit the required combination, all triggering Scatters will transform into random cash prizes and stick to the reels. Now, all new symbols that land onto the grid also stick to it for the remainder of the bonus feature, as well as reset the number of spins back to 3.

Premium symbols, though, alter their role and now play into the features. Whenever one of those appears in view during the Hold and Win spins, it applies a special modifier, explained below.

• Booster - reveals a random Multiplier of 2x-5x and applies it to 2-3 random symbols in view.
• Sniper - reveals a random Multiplier and adds it to all symbols in view.
• Sniper with a Golden frame - reveals a random Multiplier and adds it to all symbols in view and repeats on each spin for the remainder of the bonus game.
• Collector - reveals a random Multiplier and then collects values of all other visible symbols in view and adds them to the revealed Multiplier.
• Collector with a Golden frame - acts in the same way as the Collector symbol, but repeats on each spin for the remainder of the bonus game.

You can also boost symbol values to get better prizes. When all 4 positions on the reel are filled with multipliers or special symbols, a 2x Multiplier will be applied to all symbols on that reel at the end of the bonus game.

Grand Loot - Slot Verdict

Grand Loot is an exciting, rewarding, well-balanced slot with a gorgeous look, and it's a decent alternative to the Money Train 2 slot. Yet still, Relax Gaming's brainchild surpasses Pariplay's one in some aspects.

Let's take the base game. While the Grand Loot slot has nothing to offer other than simply spinning, Money Train 2 has Respins with a progressive Multiplier. Not that it really enlivens the gameplay, but it's always helpful to have a random bonus that can award extra prizes.

Next, oddly enough, is the bonus game. Same max wins are on offer, but it feels like achieving it is much more likely on the Relax Gaming's slot. There are simply more bonus symbols included, which have a positive impact and can help you get better rewards. Finally, it's weird that Pariplay omitted the Bonus Buy option since Grand Loot is a slot game with a focus on the bonus game, and it's quite obvious that players would opt to get straight access to it. Equally obvious that Money Train 2 features the Bonus Buy.

Pros

• Great use of the theme and immersive atmosphere
• Exciting bonus game
• Decent RTP and 50,000x potential

Cons

• Dull base game
• No Bonus Buy option
