Wild Bounty Showdown Game for Free – Demo & Review

Wild Bounty Showdown is a leader among Wild West–themed slots because of its 96.75% RTP, making it better than most of its peers like Sticky Bandits 3: Most Wanted (96.25%) and Money Train 2 (96.4%).

Its 3-4-5-5-4-3 reel layout delivers 3,600 ways to win, an unusual difference from the conventional 5x3 layouts of games such as Dead or Alive II (NetEnt). Its unique grid creates both visual appeal and gameplay variety. Volatility is high, keeping up with Money Train 2 by Relax Gaming. However, its top win of 5,000x is lower than that of its competitor, which is 50,000x.

The first thing that came to mind when we entered the game was that the graphics were poor. However, the reason for this was a unique layout, but we quickly grew accustomed to it and even started to like it.

This game features a cluster payout system, where the symbols of the winning combination disappear and are replaced by new ones. While waiting to see which symbols would fall from above, the adrenaline level rose. It got even more exciting when we saw three scatter symbols on the reels, triggering the free spins round.

To activate the free round, collect three scatters anywhere on the reels. You will get 10 free spins, and if you get an additional scatter combo during the bonus games, you will get +2 free spins each time that happens. The free spin session automatically starts with an x8 multiplier, which can increase up to 1,024x. With every new win during the same spin, the multiplier gets doubled. You can also activate the bonus buy feature and jump straight into the free spins round. The cost will be 75 times your bet.

Ten symbols in total are part of the gameplay. Four of them are card symbols (J, Q, K, and A), and collecting them brings lower-value rewards. Additionally, there are four premium symbols, including the Masked Bandit, Pistol, Cowboy Hat, and Whisky Bottle, that offer higher rewards.

Also, there is a Golden Bar scatter that activates the bonus rounds, as well as a Wild symbol that substitutes for every paying symbol. On a random spin, some symbols can be gold-framed (excluding scatter and wild). If that symbol is part of the winning combination, it will transform into a wild symbol when new symbols fall from the top. This only happens on reels 3 and 4.
