Sometimes crime does pay when you are playing Catch & Snatch, a high volatility video slot from Belatra Games. Set in the high paced criminal underworld, Catch & Snatch is your opportunity to experience a life of crime, without the risk of going to jail.
Symbols of the Underworld
All of the base symbols in the game are taken from the criminal underworld. You’ve got gangsters, dolls, fast cars and stacks of cash. And a few smoking guns of course. You win if you get three or more symbols along any of twenty different paylines, going left to right.
| 3 | 4 | 5 | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Gangster | 2.5 | 8 | 25 |
| Female Gangster | 1.75 | 7 | 20 |
| Waitress | 1.25 | 6 | 15 |
| Money | 0.75 | 3 | 5 |
| Gun | 0.5 | 2.5 | 3.5 |
| Car | 0.5 | 2 | 3 |

The Big Bossman
The head honcho of the criminal enterprise is a larger gentleman wearing a purple suit and smoking a cigar. He is wild, and can substitute for any of the other symbols.
When he appears in full, he is also the scatter symbol. Three full bosses on reels 1, 3, and 5 will trigger free games.
During the free games, you are just opening safes with every spin. Each safe that you open increases the total multiplier that is applied against your base bet, and that is your eventual payout.
In addition to opening safes, various criminal symbols can appear as well. Each one has a different impact. The lady seen above multiplies the value of her reel by a variable multiplier of 2 to 6.
The waitress adds her value from 10 to 30 to all the reels.
The tough guy multiplies the reels by a random value between 2 and 6.
The big boss man grants additional free games.
Conclusion
Catch & Snatch from Belatra Games is an enjoyable and interesting video slot. The theme, that of being part of some criminal organization, is quite entertaining and the depictions of members of said organization are quite well done. In terms of graphical effects and the overall artistry of this game this has been a superb effort.
When it comes to gameplay, we maybe could have seen a little more. Not that there is anything wrong with the game mechanics, it is fun to play, and you do have some nice features like the bonus round, but it just feels like it is slightly lacking. That the developers could have gone the additional mile but didn’t.
Other than that, the RTP is quite reasonable, and should offer sufficient value to consumers in terms of frequency of jackpots and overall playing experience. This is a fun slot to play, and the bonus round is well designed and executed. Definitely worth checking out.
