Have you been waiting for a slot that feels like an ‘80s crime flick dropped straight into a reel set? Fortunately for you, Miami Mayhem is it. Hacksaw Gaming launched this high-octane title just last month and it doesn’t waste a second easing you in. Between its wild crew of outlaw characters, expanding wild reels, and mission-based gameplay, this one is nothing less than pure chaos — in the best way possible.

With a 5×4 grid, 14 fixed paylines, and a decent max win of 15,000x, Miami Mayhem is much more than flashy visuals, it’s about stacking multipliers, unlocking missions, and surviving long enough to see those wins pile up.

Crew Reels — Meet the Gang

At the heart of the sweepstakes slot game are 5 characters — Ghosting Gordo, Roxie Rizz, Vinny the Vice, Lola la Reina, and Diego el Fuego. Each one can trigger a Crew Reel, which then expands to cover the full reel and acts as a wild. What really makes these reels especially dangerous is their multipliers, up to 100x, which stack together when more than one Crew Reel lands. 2+ of these on the same spin can quickly turn into a screen-clearing payout and we hope you’re playing with SC.

It’s a simple but undoubtedly deadly system, and it means even base spins can explode without touching a bonus round.

Mission Mode — Wanted Spins

Things really heat up when a Wanted symbol lands as this triggers Mission Mode which is 3 respins and a target symbol to hit before the countdown ends. If you land this, and you move up the Wanted bar, you raise your multipliers and unlock tougher missions. However, if you miss it, the mode ends. It’s simple, but tons of fun.

The deeper you climb into the Mission Mode, the better the rewards. Crew Reels also start to guarantee multipliers at higher levels, so there’s a constant sense of escalation. It’s not just spinning for chance because it feels like you’re actively pushing toward a win, which is a rare feeling in slots.

3 Distinct Bonus Games

We love Miami Mayhem because it doesn’t settle for just a single bonus — it gives you 3, each with its own personality.

  • The Hit. Triggered with 3 scatters and you get 10 free spins, a guaranteed Mission at the start, and Wanted Levels that climb as you go.

  • We Split. Triggered with 4 scatters and the Crew Reels that land during the round get stored in the Mayhem Bar. After your last spin, they all reactivate at once, using the current Wanted Level multiplier for a final blowout.

  • Get Lit. The rarest of the group is triggered by 5 scatters and you get 10 free spins with one guaranteed Crew symbol every spin and a permanent Wanted Level 5 multiplier. This is the slot’s top-tier feature, and it feels like a finale scene from the movie. There’s a reason it’s called Get Lit.

The variety undeniably keeps the game fresh since you won’t groan when you hit another bonus — you’ll be curious which one you’ve landed. Hopefully, for the sake of your bankroll, it’s the Get Lit bonus round.

FeatureSpins and Bonus Buys

Hacksaw knows players don’t always want to wait for features, so Miami Mayhem includes 5 FeatureSpin options so you can get to the good stuff without the wait, but they’ll cost you.

  • Bonushunt (3x). Boosted bonus odds.

  • Beach Please (50x). Guarantees two Crew Reels.

  • Mayhem Mode (50x). Starts every spin with a Wanted symbol.

  • The Hit (100x). Jump straight into the 10-spin feature.

  • We Split (300x). Access the Mayhem Bar bonus instantly.

Sure, they’re definitely not cheap, especially We Split, but the control they give over gameplay is a big win for those who want to cut straight to the action. Unfortunately, if you want to jump to the Get Lit bonus round you’ll have to work your way to it as there’s no option to buy this in advance.

How It Feels to Play

The hit frequency is 33.25%, so right around 1 in 3 spins delivers at least a little something. That’s surprisingly generous for a slot with this much volatility, and it keeps the game from feeling like a grind.

The RTP is 94.34%, which is slightly lower than average but typical for Hacksaw’s more intense titles like this one. Bonus buy versions hover around the same percentage, so you’re not punished for buying in.

In terms of pace, Miami Mayhem doesn’t feel like a slow burn. We’ve noticed that the base spins give you just enough Crew Reel action to keep you going, and once you hit Mission Mode or one of the bonuses, the game flips into overdrive. It will keep you on your toes.

Style and Atmosphere

Visually, this game is without a doubt pure Hacksaw. Gritty, neon-soaked, and heavy on attitude — just like every other Hacksaw game on the market. The characters look like they were pulled out of a VHS crime drama, complete with street weapons and dark swagger. The synth-heavy soundtrack nails the retro Miami Vice vibe, and the reel animations — especially expanding Crew Reels — pop hard against the grim backdrop. The developers spared no creativity on this one.

It’s less “day at the beach” and more “nighttime deal gone wrong,” which is exactly what makes it stand out from other games.

Get Gritty with Miami Mayhem

Miami Mayhem is one of those slots that doesn’t just spin — it tells a story, so pay attention to the spins. Between the Crew Reels, Wanted missions, and 3 distinct bonus rounds, it keeps players in the action instead of just waiting for random luck.

The 15,000x max win, mission-based progression, and stacking multipliers give it plenty of punch for high-risk players, while the hit frequency keeps it from feeling like a bankroll drain. You’ll feel like this slot checks all of the boxes and it’s a big reason why we’ve named it our Game Of The Week.

If you’re into gritty slots like Hacksaw’s RIP City or even Chaos Crew, Miami Mayhem will feel like a natural next obsession to keep you spinning for weeks on end. Just be ready: this isn’t a game about small, steady wins. It’s about building tension, stacking multipliers, and blowing the roof off when it all connects.
