Cash Crooks Slot Review — Hacksaw Gaming

This review is based on pre-release promotional material provided by Hacksaw Gaming. Details may change before or at launch on 13th August 2026. A full review will follow once the game is live.

Join Betty and Clyve as they cross the country, leaving behind empty vaults and confused tellers.

Hacksaw Gaming introduces a feline crime duo in Cash Crooks, a 5x4 paylines slot where vault-cracking is the central mechanic and a spin of the Vault Dials can deliver one of 12 multipliers or skip straight to the 10,000x max win in a single moment. The tone is playful heist — cartoon cat crooks, a bumbling bear cop, and a gold-trimmed bank interior — but the mechanics underneath are pointed. At medium volatility of 3 out of 5, the Vault Dials system gives every vault symbol landing a genuine prize moment, while two bonus games, a gamble feature, and a Hidden Epic Bonus™ provide the full escalation ladder for players pushing deeper.

Core Gameplay

Cash Crooks runs on a 5x4 paylines grid following Betty and Clyve, two cat crooks working their way across the country one bank at a time. The central base game mechanic is the Vault Dials system — when Vault symbols land on the reels they activate the dials, which spin to award one of 12 distinct multiplier outcomes or a direct Max Win. The mechanic operates as an instant prize moment within the base game rather than a separate feature trigger, meaning every Vault symbol landing carries immediate win potential without requiring a bonus round to be entered. How many Vault symbols are needed to activate the dials, whether multiple vaults landing simultaneously compound the outcome, and what the 12 multiplier values actually are will be confirmed at launch.

Bonus Features

Two bonus games are available in Cash Crooks, accompanied by a gamble feature that adds a risk layer to feature play not commonly paired with Hacksaw Gaming's standard bonus structure. The gamble feature suggests players can risk their current bonus position or accumulated wins for an enhanced outcome — though its exact mechanics are not yet confirmed. Sitting above both standard bonus games is the Hidden Epic Bonus™, Hacksaw Gaming's premium feature tier that appears selectively across their portfolio as a rarer, higher-ceiling reward. Whether the gamble feature serves as the gateway to the Hidden Epic Bonus™ or operates independently will be confirmed at launch.

Feature Access & Buy Options

Bonus buy availability has not been confirmed at this stage. Given Hacksaw Gaming's standard release format, direct bonus access and an ante-bet option are likely inclusions, but nothing has been officially announced for Cash Crooks.

Next Steps for This Review

At launch the review will be updated to cover confirmed RTP, the full bonus buy menu, the complete range of Vault Dials multiplier values across all 12 outcomes, how the gamble feature interacts with the two bonus games, and what the Hidden Epic Bonus™ requires to trigger and what it delivers. A final score and full gameplay analysis will follow once hands-on time with the game is available.
