The One Armed Bandit bonus features

This online slots game is set against a backdrop of a dusty canyon, with a wooden sign swinging in the wind that looks like it might display the name of the studio, if only we could see the whole of it.

The low value symbols – hearts, spades, clubs and diamonds – look as if they are printed onto sewn leather, with stitching included. The high value symbols include all those cowboy necessities such as hats, pistols, spurs and hip flasks. The pistols are the most valuable according to the online slot tips, awarding 80 times the stake for five across a winning line.

Wilds

The Sheriff’s badge acts as the Wild symbol, substituting for any other symbol except the Scatter.

Re-Spins

A masked bandit represents the Scatter. Landing one to four of these desperados will trigger a corresponding number of re-spins. When this feature activates, the Scatters will transform into Wilds.

During Re-Spins, x5 Multiplier Wilds can land, boosting the win potential. Re-spins can be reactivated if more Scatters land and they will continue until no more Scatters appear.

Free Spins

To activate free spins, one Scatter must land on each of the five reels on the same spin. This awards 10 casino free spins, with an x5 multiplier, as the sheriff faces off with each member of the bandit gang in turn. Any unused Re-spins will become additional free spins and added to the player’s tally.

During the free rounds, every second Scatter will increase the multiplier factor by x1, up to a max limit of x20. The Bonus symbol (a hardened cowboy with an impressive moustache) comes into play here.

Every single Bonus awards a free spin. Two Bonuses and the multiplier increases by x5. A further two means the multiplier increases by x10!
