Rip City

Rip City, also styled as R.I.P. City, is a Hacksaw Gaming slot inspired by old-school cartoon slapstick. Ro$$ the Cat and Maxx the Mouse lead the chase across a grid with five reels, five rows and 19 paylines.

The main mechanic is the Wild Cat, an expanding wild that can interact with regular WILD symbols to collect multipliers. The game also includes separate Ro$$ and Maxx bonus games, Bonus Buy and two FeatureSpins™ options. Its listed maximum win is 12,500x the bet.

Hacksaw Gaming lists Rip City's volatility at 3 out of 5. The maximum win is 12,500x, giving the expanding Wild Cat and bonus mechanics a clearly defined upper limit.

Four RTP configurations are listed: 96.22%, 94.27%, 92.32% and 88.02%. The presence of multiple settings means the available RTP can vary between versions of the game.

A Wild Cat symbol can drop onto the grid and expand, potentially covering an entire reel. This creates a larger wild area that can help complete wins across the game's 19 paylines.

The feature gains an extra layer when an expanding Wild Cat covers a regular WILD. That WILD changes into a multiplier, is swallowed by the cat and then applies its value to the entire expanded Wild Cat symbol.

The Ro$$ Bonus Game is a free spins feature in which Wild Cat symbols are more likely to appear. Its focus stays close to the base mechanic, but with more opportunities for expanding wild reels.

The standout result occurs when five Wild Cats land across the top row. This produces a full screen of expanded Wild Cat symbols.

The Maxx Bonus Game uses a progressive reel activation mechanic. The first time a Wild Cat lands on a reel, that reel becomes active. New Wild Cats can then appear on the same reel throughout the remaining free spins.

Activating all five reels early creates more opportunities for additional Wild Cats during the spins that follow. This gives the Maxx feature a different rhythm from the Ro$$ round, with progress building as more reels are activated.

Rip City includes a Bonus Buy option that provides direct access to one of its bonus games. The supplied game information does not list the individual purchase prices.

BonusHunt FeatureSpins™ increase the bet in exchange for improved odds of triggering a bonus round. Wild Cat FeatureSpins™ instead guarantee two or three Wild Cat symbols on every spin, depending on the selected price.

The free Rip City demo is useful for seeing how the 5x5 grid and 19 paylines work before focusing on the special modes. Watch how far each Wild Cat expands and whether it covers a regular WILD to add a multiplier.

The two bonus games are worth comparing separately. Ro$$ increases the presence of Wild Cats and can produce a full screen through the five-symbol top-row combination, while Maxx rewards early reel activation across the remaining free spins.

Rip City builds most of its identity around one central symbol. The Wild Cat can expand across a reel, absorb WILD multipliers and behave differently within the Ro$$ and Maxx bonus games.

The key specifications are a five-reel, five-row layout, 19 paylines, volatility rated 3 out of 5 and a 12,500x maximum win. Players checking a particular version should also note which of the four listed RTP settings applies.
