Amid a flurry of activity over the past few months, Push Gaming has released the latest installment of its fan-favorite “Fat” series, with the 1920s-themed video slot Fat Banker now available network-wide in regulated markets. The B2B gaming supplier’s new game follows recent hits such as the vampire-inspired Nightfall and Fire Hopper.
Here, players will travel back in time and watch the jolly banker fatten his pockets as he and his wife and their pooch cruise around NYC in grand style.
Game Symbols & Paytable:
The high volatility, 50 payline online slot has a 25,000x max win, along with a Fortune Link Feature, Multipliers, Red & Gold Car features, and a Fat Banker Free Spins Feature. All of this and more is played out in view of the iconic Manhattan skyline, with a 6×6 game grid home to eight regular symbols including diamond, club, heart and spade card icons as the low pays worth from 0.05 to 0.50 and a top hat, cigar, dog and banker’s wife as higher pays worth from 0.15 to 10.00 for six-of-a-kind.
Winning combinations of three or more matching symbols pay on adjacent reels from the far left side of the grid to the right and the Fat Banker symbol is a Wild symbol that substitutes for all other symbols with the exception of Silver Safe, Bullion and Multiplier symbols.
During the base game, Bullion Symbols, which are Instant Prize Symbols, can land on all reels except for reel six, and award bet multipliers of 1x, 2x, 3x, 5x, 10x, 25x, 50x and 100x the stake. In order for their prizes to be awarded, a silver safe must land on reel six.
Feature-Packed:
Furthermore, the Red Car feature can be activated when a spin ends. When that happens, Wild Money Bags with multipliers attached, Silver Safe and Bullion symbols can be randomly added to the reels to boost wins.
If a player lands the Fat Banker with a Wild Money Bag, they are awarded entry into the Free Spins round. Initially, five free spins are awarded to the player, and after that, the Banker symbol makes its way to any Wild Money Bag that lands. They are collected and the progress meter increases.
As the meter fills, the Fat Banker also grows, and extra free spins are also awarded. Additionally, Money Bag symbols can land with a multiplier, which is also collected and amassed, while any win created by the banker is multiplied thereafter.
During the free spins round, the Red Car mechanic that shows in the base game has made the upgrade to a Gold version. Activation sees Wild Money Bags or a random number of instant prize symbols can be positioned across the playing space. This helps to boost the size of the banker and can award more free spins.
Growing Franchise:
Commenting on the release via company blog, James Marshall, Chief Executive Officer for Push Gaming said: “Fat Banker expands upon our much-loved Fat Series whilst adding its unique twist on the growing franchise.
“I’m proud of our team’s work to bring a fresh 1920’s theme, new instant win prizes, multipliers, and additional features to the franchise. We are looking forward to adding this release to our growing portfolio of high-quality hits and are excited to see players’ reaction to it.”
