Fat Banker

It’s time to fatten the proverbial goose with the new chubby-themed slot from Push Gaming. Fat Banker provides the stereotypical banker with all the trappings of success, and more than a hint of serious cash. And that could be heading your way if you land the right symbol combo as there’s a top payout of x25,000.

Calling a banker “fat” may not seem like an ideal way to set up a slot, but it’s a recurring theme for Push Gaming and not a personal attack on bankers! This is the latest instalment in a “fat” series of games for Push Gaming which have proven to be a real hit with players. Previous titles include Fat Bunny, Fat Santa and Fat Drac! Whether it’s a good idea to insult a vampire’s physique is still questionable…! 

Fat Banker has plenty to offer with a 6x6 grid that's filled with 50 traditional paylines, providing lots of opportunities to win. Betting starts at 0.10 and increases to a max bet of 100.00. Volatility is high, so you might have to wait a while for the banker to empty his pockets, but the potential for a lucrative win makes it worth the wait.

Push Gaming describe Fat Banker as a 1920s themed slot, and that aligns with the chic good looks of the design. The reels stand in the centre of a pristine city street with a road sign on the left declaring it to be "Banker St" - just in case you were in any doubt about where you were. On the right-hand side of the reels is a commanding building with imposing pillars and flags. This is presumably the bank, while on the opposite side of the street is a cafe with a menu blackboard outside. If that's where this chubby banker goes to scoff his lunch, the food must be very good! 

Playing card suits make up the low pays on the reels and pay out x1 for matching six. The high pays include a top hat, puppy, cigar and the banker’s wife, all worth up to x10-x20 for a full win of six symbols.  

The banker makes an appearance on the paytable, and he's the most valuable of them all, offering x40 for lining up six. However, the banker is also wild and can substitute for any of the other regular pays to bring you more wins. But the banker isn't the only wild; there are also wild money bags and wild money bags with a multiplier which comes with a multiplier of x2, x3 or x5. All of the wilds can land on reels 2-6.

Just like the fat banker’s dinner plate, this slot is overflowing with symbols that can bolster your own personal coffers.  

Bullion symbols can land on reels 1-5, and each one has its own cash value, which could be anything up to x100. If a silver safe lands on reel 6 at the same time, the cash value of the bullion symbols is collected up and awarded. Even better, if a multiplier lands on the board at the same time, the bullion value will be multiplied before the silver safe collects them. 

Reel 6 has some symbols which feature blue frames; these are known in the game as hot spots. If there are bullion symbols on the board and a silver safe lands in a hot spot, you'll trigger the bonus Fortune Link round. This takes you to a separate board which only has bullion symbols, multipliers and blanks. Starting with two respins, you'll take your turn with the aim of landing bullion and multipliers. Every time you land bullion or multipliers, your respins reset. The bonus continues until either the grid is filled or you run out of respins. In the end, you'll be awarded the value of the bullion and the multipliers. 

Back in the base game, if you land the banker on reel 1 plus at least one other wild on the reels, you’ll enter the Fat Banker Free Spins round. Starting with five free spins, the banker will remain on the reels for the duration of this bonus round. If one of the wild money bags land at any time, the banker will move and pick it up. 

When you have collected five money bags, the banker will expand to a 2x2 symbol, and you'll receive three extra spins. The more money bags you collect, the larger the banker will grow and the more free spins you'll collect. The maximum size for the banker is 6x6, with a total of 11 additional free spins to pick up along the way. Note - the banker can collect money bags with multipliers, too, for even bigger wins! 

And the features just keep on coming! Landing certain symbols provides the potential for the Red Car or Gold Car feature to randomly trigger, giving you the potential for a win or triggering a bonus.  

If you really can't wait, there's also the bonus buy where you'll have the option of three different features at a cost of x30 to x600, depending on which one you choose.

Fat Banker is a huge slot that's overloaded with features, and Push Gaming has undoubtedly played its part in filling up the player's proverbial plate. The return to the Roaring Twenties will be a blast for many players with this slot which offers enormous potential and the capacity for multiple wins.
