Wild West is a five reeled premium video slot from SkillOnNet. We say premium because it includes the latest slot software, eye popping animation, sound effects and prizes which would make the richest of cowboys blush. The wild west jackpot is won with five gold bar symbols and pays an impressive $100,000!

Wild West Bounty Slot Theme

Wild West Bounty is themed from top to bottom with outback cowboy and bandit items. The background has been designed to look like a desert complete with cactus plans whilst the reel case appears to be a bullet riddled saloon bar.

An acoustic guitar riff plays during every win whilst each spin is also accompanied by bespoke music. Every aspect of the slot uses its own music or sound effects, our favorite plays during the bonus game - it’s very wild west showdown! We know sounds aren’t everyones cup of tea which is why a handy mute button has been located in the bottom lefthand corner.

The reel icons are also sympathetically designed to match the theme. They include cowboy boots, gold bars, horseshoes, wagons, wanted posted, feathers, cowboy hats and sheriff badges.

The betting options are also high quality and range from 1 penny to $/€/£30 per spin. This is mighty impressive when you consider the quality of the slot and the prizes available.

Wild West Slots Features

The sheriffs badge symbol is wild and can replace any other symbol excluding the scatter and bonus. This one is the most active of all three features, when we tested the slot at least.

One or more dynamite scatters prompts a bandit to shoot up the screen leaving five bullet holes. You select one of these bullet holes to be awarded a random number of free spins which makes a refreshing change from other slots which preset free spins depending on the number of triggering scatters.

The bonus game is an old fashioned six shooter dual where playing chicken can earn you big bucks. This is triggered with three or more wanted posters on an active payline. During the bonus game you face your foe and the longer you hold your nerve the larger your prize will be, if you wait too long he shoots you and you end up with nothing.

The Tin Can bonus game is awarded when 500 points have been collected, this is shown in the top right. Each bonus icon awards points with 30 points awarded when playing the lowest coin denomination. You are given five bullets and shoot at cans, each hit awards an instant win. When you return to the reels the bonus counter increases to 1000 points needed for the next game.

The 1000 point game is another shooting gallery, this time it is much harder to win because the targets are moving. If you’ve got a steady hand you’ll do well in this round.

Wild West bounty impresses with its five bonus rounds, slick gameplay and of course that humongous jackpot - this is definitely one to try.
