DEAD OR ALIVE SLOT theme, STAKES, PAYLINES & SYMBOLS

Wild West slots have been around ever since the first online casinos hit the web in the late 1990s, but the trend only really gathered pace following the success of the original Dead or Alive online slot. The game is getting on a little bit now though – the graphics and presentation look dated, and the maximum jackpot of roughly 14,000x the total stake is no longer the head-turner it once was. These issues probably played a part in NetEnt’s decision to finally release a sequel to their smash-hit game, which is something that the developer appeared to be deliberately putting off for the longest time. The decision to update the original game with better graphics, a larger jackpot, and a couple of additional bonus rounds was probably a good one, even if it effectively renders the first game obsolete.

One of the best aspects of Dead or Alive 2 is undoubtedly the huge payout for hitting all five scatters - at 2,500x the total bet, this dwarfs the return of every other combination on the paytable. A premium is also attached to the wild symbols, which can award up to 166x your stake when all five appear on a payline. The highest-paying regular symbol is the sheriff's star, offering a payout of 111x the total bet for a full payline of five of a kind.  Next, the gun and holster can pay up to 83x the bet for all five symbols, followed by the cowboy hat, which has a return of 424x for a complete payline. The final two high-paying symbols are the cowboy boots and whiskey bottle, boasting payout of 33x and 22x, respectively. As for the low-paying royals, those payouts range between 3x for five tens up to 11x for five aces.

Dead or Alive 2s wager options are a tad more restrictive than those of its predecessor, but there’s still a decent range of options between the minimum bet of €0.09 a spin, and the maximum stake, which reaches up to €18.00. So, to conclude, it shouldn't matter what size your bankroll is when you enter the game, as a stake should be available that's relative to it and allows you to have plenty of spins.

base game & modifiers

Dead or Alive 2 is a relatively straightforward online slot, but I’d argue that this is probably one of its greatest strengths. The game uses a traditional 5x3 video slot layout, spanned by just nine fixed paylines. The small number of lines means that you won’t be winning as often as you would on a game with 243 ways, but the wins you do hit are inevitably much larger. The paylines are arranged a tad differently from some other nine and ten line games, so it’s possibly worth checking the paytable diagrams before you begin to play.

DEAD OR ALIVE 2 slot bonus features

Hitting three or more bonus scatter symbols anywhere on the reels will trigger the free spins feature, which always awards 12 spins as standard. Triggering combinations that feature four or five scatters also benefit from a cash payout of 25x or 2,500x the total bet, respectively.
