Wanted Dead or a Wild — slot review and demo

Wild West with DuelReels™ mechanic

The slot is built on a 5×5 grid with 15 paylines. The main feature is the DuelReels™ mechanic, triggered when VS symbols land. If such a symbol becomes part of a winning combination after expanding, the entire reel turns into a wild with a multiplier from one of the duelists. When multiple expanded reels participate in one combination, their multipliers are added together and multiply the payline win.

Three bonus modes inspired by westerns

The Great Train Robbery — a train heist with sticky wilds that remain on screen and participate in all subsequent wins. Duel at Dawn — a dawn duel with increased probability of multiple VS symbols landing simultaneously, which can fill the screen with expanded DuelReels™. Dead Man's Hand — a two-phase game: first you collect wilds and multipliers, then in the Showdown phase all accumulated wilds are added to random positions on each spin, and the total multiplier is applied to all wins. Bonus Buy function is available for instant access to any of the modes.

96.38% RTP and above-average volatility

The provider states 96.38% RTP (versions with 94.55%, 92.33%, 88.42% are also available — check with the operator). Volatility is above average (4 out of 5), maximum win is x12500 the bet.
