There are two ways to make big bucks in Texas; either you'll own land or pump oil. This slot is based upon the latter and includes five reels laden with oil rig paraphernalia. Players can also look forward to added features such as wilds, free spins, scatters and multipliers.

Texan Tycoon Theme

Oil derricks can be seen above the reels, but you'll have to imagine them pumping because they are stationary. The reels on the other hand do include some animated graphics, whilst the others aren't but are equally striking (no pun intended).

The Texan Tycoon appears on the reels wearing his stereotypical white suit. He is joined by oil riggers, oil wells, oil drums, big rig trucks and huge stacks of cash icons. Even the regular icons have been steel plated and include 9, 10, J, Q, K and A.

We've been obsessed with Texas ever since the program oil riggers was launched, plus the overall look reminds us of other popular slots and cartoons which are around at the moment. Therefore we like the theme, albeit somewhat of a strange one to choose for a video slot.

Betting Options and More Functions

Bets range from an ultra cheap 0.01 to a much more serious $125 per spin. You can even try the slot out for free on our site by following the link above. This is a great opportunity to try before you buy (so to speak) and, if you do wish, review it too.

Texan Tycoon Slot Features

The Texan tycoon, complete with ten gallon hat and mustache, can only appear on the middle reel. This icon is wild which means if can count as any other icon so long as it's not the scatter. This clever icon will also double all wins it helps create.

The oil-well icon plays as a scatter and three will launch a pick me game. You choose one of the oil wells which causes oil to spew out from the top before revealing up to 25 free spins. All prizes are tripled during the free spins feature too; with a little luck you'll land some hefty combinations.

Our Take on Texan Tycoon

Oil rig workers are famed for being brave, or foolhardy, because their job is so dangerous. Thankfully you can reap the benefits they enjoy without any physical risk, or dirty oil :-). We liked the added detail used on the free spins game and thought the inclusion of progressive jackpots was great too. You can play Texan Tycoon at any of the casinos listed below, or for free above.
