The Bowery Boys review

Theme and Style

The Bowery Boys is themed around a 19th-century New York gang.

Players will head back in time to the gritty streets of Hell’s Kitchen where a host of mean gangsters and deadly weapons await. With a little luck and a mysterious golden key, players will try to make it to dawn in this cut throat world.

The Bowery Boys slot theme will appeal to fans of the film Gangs of New York and the series Peaky Blinders.

Visuals and Soundtrack

The tension-inducing soundtrack is filled with quick string notes that will make players feel as if they are running through the moonlit streets of New York.

The symbols include a variety of intriguing characters, from a femme fatale lighting her cigarette on a bomb fuse to an intimidating man with a mustache. A couple about to kiss adds a sense of romance to the narrative.

Letters also appear among the symbols, scrolled on ornately decorated paper. A pistol, a man being kicked by a foot, and a bomb all heighten the sense of violence.

Beyond the reels, a dark alley and a faint moon in the sky above can be seen. Observant players will notice the delicate Ben-Day dots in the animation, giving the world an old newsprint aesthetic.

Overall, the animation and soundtrack create an engaging historical crime vibe.

Strongboxes function together with the Key symbol to reveal prizes. Any amounts revealed will be added to a tabulation above the reels. The prizes can be between 2x and 250x the player’s bet.

The total win bar sits above the reels and keeps track of the amount pending to be awarded. At the end of a round, this amount has any pending Strongboxes and Multipliers applied to it and then resets.

Blasting Bomb Multipliers can land at random on the reels with values between x2 and x100. These Multipliers can only be applied if there is a pending amount in the win bar.

The Bowery Boys features three different versions of the Free Spins feature.

If players land 1 Bonus symbol, they are awarded the Strongbox Storage bonus feature, starting with 10 free spins. During this feature, players can store as many as 5 Strongboxes without landing a corresponding Key symbol.

When players land 2 Bonus symbols, they are awarded the Daisy’s Dynamite bonus feature, starting with 10 free spins.

They will progressively store Dynamite Multipliers until they land a Detonator symbol. The Multipliers can have values between x2 and x100.

The Bowery Savings Bank bonus feature begins when players land 3 Bonus symbols. This feature begins with 10 free spins. During this feature, every win results in a matching amount being added to a Vault and displayed as a total. This amount will only be awarded if players land the Dollar symbol.

If players land the Dice symbol, the displayed Vault value will be multiplied by between x2 and x12 as decided by the dice.

Landing the Police Officer Badge means losing between 10% and 50% of the current Vault value to a bribe.
