How to play De Rat Heist (members only)

Instead of fixed lines, matching symbols on adjacent reels pay in any position, starting from the leftmost reel. The more matching symbols there are on each reel, the more ways the combination pays.

De Rat Heist pays with ways to win.

  1. Set your stake. Choose your total bet per spin. Wins are paid as multiples of this stake.
  2. Check the paytable. Open the game's info screen to see what each symbol pays and the exact rules for this version.
  3. Spin. Each spin's result is decided by a certified random number generator, independent of previous spins.
  4. Trigger the bonus. Land the required scatter symbols to start the free spins feature.

How winnings work (members only)

What 96.01% RTP costs per $100 wagered, the 10,000x max win at a $1 stake

The top prize is capped at 10,000x your stake. On a $1 spin that is $10,000; on $0.20 it is $2,000. When the cap is reached the round usually ends immediately.

Multipliers are applied to wins as they land; in many games several multipliers add together or multiply each other, which is where the largest wins come from.

What 96.01% RTP means

Expected return = stake × 96.01%
Over $100 of total bets, the long-run average loss is $3.99

RTP is a long-run average across millions of spins. Any single session can finish far above or below it, especially on a very high volatility game.

The published hit frequency is 20.82%, meaning roughly one spin in 4.8 returns something — though many of those wins are smaller than the stake.

Features explained (members only)

4 features explained: wild symbols, multipliers, respins, free spins

Wild symbols

Wilds substitute for regular paying symbols to help complete winning combinations. They do not normally replace scatter or bonus symbols.

Multipliers

Multipliers increase a win by a set factor, such as 2x or 10x. They can be attached to symbols, applied to a whole spin, or grow during a feature, and are a main driver of the biggest wins.

Respins

Selected reels or the whole grid spin again without a new stake, usually triggered by a specific symbol combination or near-miss feature.

Free spins

A bonus round of spins played at no cost to your balance, usually triggered by landing three or more scatter symbols. Wins during the round are added to your balance, and many games let you retrigger extra spins.

Strategy tips (members only)

  • Size your stake to the volatility. Very high volatility means most spins lose and a large share of the return comes from rare big features. Treat it as entertainment with a strict budget and a stake of around 0.5% of your session budget or less. A simple rule: bring at least 400 spins' worth of budget, so a $50 budget suggests a stake of about $0.12.

3 more tips and a session planner

  • Check which RTP version you're playing. Backseat Gaming offers this game at 96.01%, 94.01%, 92.01%, 90.01%. Open the game rules at your casino and prefer sites running the 96.01% version.
  • Bonus wagering: at 96.01% RTP, clearing $1,000 of wagering costs about $39.90 on average. Check the bonus terms, as some casinos exclude specific games. Run your numbers in the wagering calculator.
  • Set limits before you spin. Decide your loss limit and session time in advance and stop when you reach either. No pattern or betting system changes the outcome of a spin.
