Downtown is a new online pokie from developer 1×2 Gaming. Any movie buff will instantly recognise that the game is based on the Sin City film. We anticipate that this new online pokie will be a big hit, thanks to the huge success to the movie and graphic novel franchise. Sin City is a movie based on the famed graphic novel of the same name by Frank Miller.
It was released in 2005, and was an instant blockbuster hit. Directed by Robert Rodriguez and Quentin Tarantino, the film starred big names like Bruce Willis, Jessica Alba and Mickey Rourke. While a game based on the film may seem a little bit outdated, 1×2 Gaming is actually right on time. Sin City: A Dame to Kill For will be released later this month, and it is generating a great deal of buzz in the media.
Of course, we’re sure that 1×2 Gaming wants to distance itself from the Sin City brand. The game begins with a cinematic sequence. It is a sweep of a city skyline, and really sets the mood for the rest of the game. The plot involves the mob chasing you, and you’ll have the resort of shootouts and showdowns to get them off your back. There is a Shoot Out bonus, which is triggered when three or more cells appear on the same payline.
When this occurs, the player is taken to an abandoned town. The player is prompted to shoot at different buildings, and each one has a different cash value. Prizes are accumulated as the player shoots down each building. The Free Spins game is also quite generous. When three or more free spins symbols appear on the same payline, the players wins between 5 and free spins. During this round, all prizes are doubled.
