Rusty & Curly

Rusty & Curly Slot Machine Review

Hacksaw Gaming has never been shy about weird. And Rusty & Curly? It’s very much on brand. This slot takes what should be a basic western-themed setup and flips it with a chaotic duo of cartoon outlaws, plenty of humor, and a bonus system that feels one notch away from unhinged. It’s fast, unpredictable, and, oddly enough, oddly lovable.

First Impressions: Weird West

Visually, it’s all a bit scrappy in the best way. Rusty and Curly are hand-drawn misfits, part-cowboy, part-clown, riding shotgun across 5 reels with a ramshackle mix of safes, dynamite, and wild-eyed horses. You’re not getting polished graphics here — instead, it leans into awkward charm.

The soundtrack? Banjo-driven chaos, with enough twang to either make you grin or mute it after five minutes. Either way, it sets the tone.

Core Mechanics and Bonus Mayhem

Gameplay-wise, Rusty & Curly follows a 5×4 grid with 14 paylines. It might sound minimal, but Hacksaw slots rarely care about standard structure. The excitement here comes from:

• Wild Multipliers — dropping randomly and stacking

• The “Double Trouble” feature — where Rusty and Curly both appear and multiply each other

• Free Spins with sticky wilds (and if you’re lucky, the duo shows up again)

• Chain Reaction wins — not quite tumbling, but things can pop fast

It’s not exactly a strategic slot, but it’s definitely engaging. You never know what the next spin will do — which, to be fair, is kind of the point.

At a Glance

Is It Fun or Just Strange?

A bit of both. Some players will find Rusty & Curly way too offbeat. Others — especially fans of Hacksaw’s slightly chaotic portfolio — might love the randomness and style. It’s not the kind of slot where you “settle in.” It’s more like crashing a strange party where things might explode or rain coins at any moment.

One downside: when the bonus doesn’t land, it can feel like a drag. The base game has bursts of life, but it’s really the features that carry the weight. That said, when Rusty and Curly sync up just right, the results are pure adrenaline.

Final Thoughts

Rusty & Curly is not going to be everyone’s favorite — but that’s never been the point. For players who like risk, weird charm, and an unpredictable ride, it’s absolutely worth spinning. Just maybe don’t expect to understand it fully. That’s part of the fun.
