The Great Train Robbery
Three or more TRAIN ROBBERY scatters launch the great train robbery feature. This is a free spins bonus round, with sticky wilds, so any wilds you hit stick around for the entirety of your free spins.
Duel At Dawn
The Duel at Dawn free spin feature is triggered after three DUEL scatter symbols hit during the base game. During this bonus round, VS symbols come at a high frequency, triggering a shootoff between various multipliers. Whichever multiplier wins the duel is then multiplied against the value of any winning combinations.
Dead Man’s Hand
The Dead Man’s Hand feature is triggered when three or more DEAD scatter symbols show up during the main game. This game has two phases. The first is a collection phase, where you try to accumulate as many wilds and multipliers as possible without going three consecutive spins without hitting anything. Then, once you miss for three spins in a row, you shift to the showdown stage.
The showdown stage has three spins, and on each board you get as many wilds as you accumulated during the previous stage. Not only that, but every win is multiplied by the value of all the multipliers that you got during the collection stage.
Buy Bonus
Another feature of Wanted Dead or A Wild is the ability to buy bonuses. You can buy your way directly into any of the bonus round features, Duel at Dawn, The Great Train Robbery, or Dead Man’s Hand.
Conclusion
You don’t have to be a desperado or outlaw to enjoy Wanted Dead or A Wild. What we found really cool about this game is that it has three different and distinct bonus rounds, each with their own unique aspects. Aside from the excellent gameplay, the general design and overall look and feel of the game is very nice as well.
The theme of slot, that of the wild west, has a lot of potential. This was such a romantic time period in American history and it is no surprise there is an entire film genre devoted to it. The general lawlessness of the period allows for a lot of conflict between good and evil and the heroes of this era tend to be fairly complex characters themselves as well.
Overall, we had a blast playing Wanted Dead or A Wild, it is a great slot and we think a lot of people will enjoy it.
