Great Hook Hold and Win: Help Detective Hook Bust the Catleone Family for up to 1,300x Wins

1spin4win put a 1930s gangster detective on a 5x3 evidence board and built a Hold and Win bonus around it. Detective Hook is chasing the Catleone family's casino fraud operation, and the gold coins marked with cat pawprints are the clues that crack the case open. Two jackpots and a 1,300x max win hang in the balance. 

The game runs on a 5x3 grid with 243 ways to win. Symbol pays start at 1x your bet, which is a decent floor, but they took seven to eight spins to land during my session. Base game wins came in between 1x and 4x when they did show up. There were times when I went up to 15 spins without a single winning combination so I wouldn’t call this slot medium volatility. 

Three gold coins anywhere on the grid trigger the Hold and Win bonus with three respins, only coins, jackpot symbols, and blanks appearing until the counter runs dry. Each coin sticks to the grid during the round and resets the respin counter back to three. My first trigger landed four 1x to 2x coins and wrapped up at 7x, which is about as low as the feature gets. 

Ten spins later it fired again, this time dropping a 10x coin into the mix alongside the smaller values for a 31x return. Neither run came close to the Minipot or Megapot, but the second trigger showed how quickly the feature can shift when a higher-value coin lands and resets the counter.

Overall, the Great Hook Hold and Win slot by 1spin4win looks and feels outdated from the start and the features don’t do it any justice either. All it has going for it are the coin symbols, which land frequently enough to trigger the bonus easily. That said, the bonus doesn’t have a particularly high win ceiling either. I’d skip this one if I were you.
