Break Da Bank Again Pokie Machine
Break Da Bank has been a popular Poker machine for some time, but it was originally released in a fairly basic 3 reel format, so being the nice people that they are, Microgaming have responded to customers and updated it into a 5 reel game with 9 lines of opulent action.
Players don’t have to worry about being robbed blind in this game, as like all Microgaming pokies, it’s been fully audited for fair play, and comes with some bonus rounds that will boost da bankroll when they kick in.
How To Open Up The Bank
Set in and around a bank vault, Break Da Bank Again has some brightly coloured 3D effect images of piles of banknotes and coins, precious stones, a stack of shiny gold bars and a cheque that has lots of zeroes on it. Big and bold 10, J, Q, K and A’s complete the basic line up and of course there’s the obligatory Wild and Scatters, although here they multiply win values several times over.
Players don’t need to be rolling in cash, as the minimum wager is just 0.01 per spin, and higher rollers can stake the maximum 22.50 by putting 2.50 on each of the paylines. The high card symbols are pretty standard, with a couple of coins being paid out for 3 of them on a line running from the left hand side, up to 90 for the A across all reels, while the picture symbols are the higher value ones.

The blue Jewel rewards players with a generous 1,500 coins for a full line, and naturally with so many images of wealth, the Coins, Bullion and Cash also have some decent wins associated with them. But the big money comes from the Wild and Scatter, with the Break Da Bank Again logo being Wild and any winning combination that it makes by substituting for other symbols will be multiplied in value by 5 times. That’s a generous payout, however, there’s a bit of a catch as the Wild has no value of its own, so getting a line of them won’t bring in any massive wins like it would in some other pokies, but it makes up for this during the free spins round when each winning line that it completes will result in a win 25 times the base value.
The Vault Door gets cracked open to start the free spins when at least three of them are scattered over the reels. Players are first rewarded a Scatter win which will be a multiple of the amount wagered, and then enter a free spins game, with the number of spins dependent on how many Scatters triggered them, so if three landed 15 spins play out, four of them start 20 free games and five Scatters will being a nice 25 spins.
Big multipliers are in effect here as well, with all wins paying out at five times their base value, but the Wild symbol has a special place during the free spins, as any combination that it completes will be award a 25 times multiplier prize.
Modest wins can be turned into big payouts if players choose to play the Gamble game, where a face down playing card will be seen, and the aim is to correctly decide if it will be turned over to be revealed as Red or Black, for a doubled pay-out, or anyone who likes a bit more risk can try to guess the correct suit for a quadrupling of the win. Like all Gamble games, it’s a fun distraction, but anyone taking up the option to play several rounds for a big win is taking quite a risk, but nothing ventured, nothing gained.
Splash The Cash, Or Lock It Away?
This colourful game has sharp graphics, classy animations and lots of images of money and riches across its reels, but the real cash comes from the Wild multiplier, particularly in the free spins round. I’m not a fan of the 9 through A symbols which turn up in many pokies, but that’s personal preference, and other than that, Break Da Bank Again is a worthy successor to a game that has been pleasing the crowds for years.
