European release of Bank Buster, the third Viridian
Hyperlink from Aristocrat. Featuring a charismatic safe-

raiding antics, the game combines a four level progressive
jackpot with six swag-snatching Bonus Features.
The six Bonus Features comprise: ‘Pop Gun’, awarding one of four jackpots or a random credit prize;
‘Cop Out’, a ladder climb to higher riches with bonus credits along the way; ‘Hot Cash’, 10 Free Games to
hit three Jackpot Symbols, for one or more of the four jackpots, or a credit prize; ‘Line Up’, matching
two amounts to win that credit prize or one of the four jackpots; ‘Money Grab’, three jumps to grab a
credit prize note, jackpot, more jumps or misses; and ‘Safe Cracker’, open five safes to reveal gold bars
(collectable towards a jackpot win), credit awards or dynamite (five additional safe picks).
The fast-paced action of frequent, random feature hits, triggering jackpot wins, free games or bonus New B2 from Global Draw
