A cat and a mouse who cordially loathe each other, a black-and-white city scrawled with neon graffiti: RIP City Dice turns the Hacksaw Gaming duel into dice form, landing on the Belgian market with its old-cartoon charm intact. On Dragon Casino, the title takes its place on the online dice slots shelf and leans on classic paylines, two bonus rounds named after the rivals and a Wild that spreads out.

Released by Hacksaw Gaming, the game fully owns its cheeky style. Let us make the introductions.

Ro$$ versus Maxx: the world of RIP City Dice

The whole story hinges on a stubborn feud. To the left of the reels, Ro$$ the tomcat glares at the screen; to the right, Maxx the mouse puffs nervously on his cigarette, a spare already ready between his fingers. Between the two stretches a 1930s city drained of its colour, where only the neon tags and the high-value symbols burn bright on screen. Hacksaw cultivates the same raw graphic contrast here as in its previously noted releases, between old-fashioned charm and grating humour. The result is anything but flashy, yet the mutual hatred of the two characters is enough to give the title real personality, far from the interchangeable backdrops of the genre.

The grid and symbols of RIP City Dice

The game plays out on a matrix of five reels and five rows, crossed by nineteen fixed paylines: a run of three to five matching symbols, left to right, is enough to pay. The paytable reads on two levels. At the bottom, the 10-to-A royals handle the everyday business, worth five to ten times the stake for five of a kind. At the top, five premium symbols take over — a peeled banana, a skull topped with a candle, a pair of dice, a smiley face and a billiard ball, returning fifteen to twenty times the stake for a full line. Taking the time to run through this hierarchy helps you spot at a glance which combinations are truly worth chasing.

The Ro$$ Bonus of RIP City Dice

The first bonus round carries the tomcat's name. The Ro$$ Bonus is built around his predatory temperament and hands out its rewards through its own logic of free spins and boosted wins. It is one of the two doorways to the game's real potential, where the base lines give way to a more nervous mechanic. The trigger has to be earned across the reels, unless you take the paid shortcut we will come to further down.

The Maxx Bonus of RIP City Dice

In mirror image, the Maxx Bonus puts the mouse in the spotlight and offers a second variant of free spins, with its own mood and its own pace of payouts. Having two distinct features rather than a single bonus changes things: depending on which one you land, a session can take a radically different turn, which feeds replayability. It is also what pushes you to try both before settling on a preference.

The expanding Wild Cat of RIP City Dice

At the heart of the base game, two types of Wild can appear across all the reels. They stand in for the paying symbols and sign off fine lines themselves, up to twenty-five times the stake for five in a row. On top of that comes the Wild Cat, a special symbol that shows up on a single tile before expanding to cover more of them. That expansion can span a whole reel and turn a humdrum spin into a winner, multiplying the possible lines in one stroke. It is the little touch of madness that spices up the spins outside the bonus.

Buying the bonus on RIP City Dice

For anyone lacking the patience to wait, the title allows the direct purchase of its features, with five options on the menu. Each one targets a precise trigger and a different budget, from a simple burst of speed to a full plunge into the richest part of the game. Handy, but to be handled with judgement: buying a bonus exposes you straight away to maximum volatility, without the warm-up of the classic spins.

RTP, volatility and top win of RIP City Dice

On the numbers side, the title shows a reference RTP of 96.22%, in the upper-middle of the market, bearing in mind that Hacksaw issues the game in several payout configurations — so it is best to check the active value in the paytable. The volatility, rated three out of five, places the game in a balanced register: wins land at a decent pace without the sums soaring on every spin. The ceiling, for its part, is worth a look, since a single spin can return up to twelve thousand five hundred times the stake. Stakes, precisely, range from ten cents to one hundred euros, suiting small purses and bolder players alike.

Managing your stake on RIP City Dice

A high top win paired with medium volatility sketches a clear profile: fairly steady sessions, punctuated by peaks that can catch you off guard. Within that frame, matching your stake to the play time you want remains the healthiest reflex — a moderate stake stretches the fun and gives the bonuses time to show up. Those eyeing the ceiling would do well to reserve the feature buy for a budget set in advance, rather than repeating it spin after spin. Responsible play always starts with a limit fixed before the very first spin.

Is RIP City Dice worth a spin?

In the end, RIP City Dice stands out thanks to a contrarian wrapper, two clearly distinct bonus rounds and a win ceiling that gives you ideas. Its measured volatility keeps it accessible without curbing its ambitions, and the Ro$$/Maxx duo lends it a tone you will not come across everywhere. You will unearth it among the new releases on our Belgium casino online. Fancy carrying on in the Hacksaw world?
