Riches of Robin Slot Overview
Riches of Robin is a medieval-themed video slot from Play'n GO, built on a 5x3 grid with 20 paylines. Released in March 2020, it uses an unusual mechanic where each symbol position operates on its own independent reel strip. Default RTP sits at 96.65%, volatility is medium-high, and the max win caps at 10,000x.
I found the independent reel strip concept interesting on paper but less dramatic in practice. For a serious session, you need to understand this is not a standard payline game. Each position spinning independently does create more combination variance per spin. Still, I'm not entirely sold on the theme; Robin Hood has been done to death, and the cartoonish art style feels aimed at casual players rather than high-rollers.
Paytable and Symbols
Low-value symbols are card suits (spades, hearts, diamonds, clubs) paying up to 2x your stake. High-value symbols include Friar Tuck, Alan-A-Dale, Little John, King Richard, and Maid Marian. Marian is the top regular payer at 20x. Robin Hood acts as the wild, substituting for everything except the scatter.
Four types of Money Bag symbols drive the instant-win mechanics. Green, blue, and purple gem bags pay x20, x100, and x1000 respectively. A fourth bag awards up to x18 with its value displayed on the bag itself. These bags are the real engine of the slot. Without them landing consistently, the base game drags. Low-value suit symbols paying just 2x means you will burn through bankroll quickly during cold stretches.

Bonus Features Breakdown
Three distinct features keep this slot alive. Money Bag Quick Hit fires when up to 3 Money Bags land with no other feature active. Robin takes a shot at each bag; every hit adds its value to your winnings. Simple mechanic, low ceiling, but it breaks up dead spin runs in the base game.
Heist Re-Spins trigger at 4 or more Money Bags on the reels. Bags lock in place, you get 3 re-spins, and every new bag resets the counter back to 3. Re-spins continue until you run out or fill every position. Combined totals from all locked bags pay out at the end. With a proper bankroll, this is where your session turns around; the purple x1000 bag locking during re-spins is the path to serious returns.
Free Spins need the archery target scatter landing in the middle of rows 2 and 4. You receive up to 20 spins with up to a x5 multiplier on every win. Re-triggers add 2 spins and bump the multiplier by 1, capping at x10. After hitting x10, each re-trigger gives 4 extra spins instead. Both Money Bag Quick Hit and Heist Re-Spins remain active during free spins, and the free spins multiplier applies on top of Money Bag values. Average trigger takes around 268 spins, which is steep. No bonus buy exists here, so you grind for every entry.
Bonus Buy Options
When up to 3 Money Bags land with no other features active, Robin shoots the bags. Hit bags have their values added to winnings.
Triggered by 4 or more Money Bags. Bags lock on the reels, 3 re-spins are awarded. New bags reset the counter to 3. Ends when re-spins run out or all reels are filled.

Volatility, RTP, and Max Win
Default RTP is 96.65%, which is solid for a Play'n GO title. Be aware that RTP ranges; some casino configurations drop to 94.67%. Always verify before committing real money. Volatility is classed as medium-high, though in my experience it plays closer to high during extended sessions. Dead spins stack up fast when Money Bags refuse to appear.
Max win of 10,000x is decent but not exceptional for this variance level. You need Heist Re-Spins inside Free Spins with a maxed multiplier to approach that ceiling. Realistically, most bonus rounds will land between 50x and 500x. For serious players chasing five-figure multipliers, the ceiling is a bit low for the grind required to get there.
