the bounty slot theme, stakes, pays & symbols

The Wild West has been the basis for many online slots during the past decades, the most obvious example being the Dead or Alive games from NetEnt. Since the release of that game, there have been countless attempts to dethrone it as the king of Wild West online slots, but the only game that successfully managed to achieve this was NetEnt’s own sequel – Dead or Alive 2. Any developer creating a Wild West-themed online slot cannot avoid their game being compared to those previous, hugely popular examples, which means that it is a brave decision on the part of any software house to release a game such as this one. I’m pleased to see that Snowborn has not completely copied off the look and feel of Dead or Alive; the developer has instead used a photo-realistic look to try and differentiate their game.

How about the paytable, then? The sheriff's star acts as the game's wild symbol and has a return of 100x the current bet for a full pay line of five-of-a-kind, matching the value of the highest-paying regular symbol. A male outlaw is pictured as that top symbol, whilst a female outlaw takes the second-placed spot with a return of 40x for all five of her symbols. An older gentleman is next, paying 20x the bet for a five-of-a-kind combination, followed by another dodgy looking guy who is busy chomping on a cigar – 10x your current bet for all five of his symbols. There are four lower-paying royal symbols, represented by a sharp-looking set of playing cards, all four of which will pay you 4x the current bet for a completed pay line.

The minimum bet of €0.15 per round should suit players with smaller bankrolls, while the maximum of €45.00 is also likely sufficient for high rollers trying this game. For everybody else, there are plenty of intervals between these two extremes!

base game & MODIFIERS

The regular gameplay of The Bounty utilises a regular 5x3 playfield, whilst the 15 fixed paylines give the developers plenty of scope to include some big wins on their paytable. As we have previously seen, however, the most significant wins available in the base game are line hits of just 100x your stake – all the game's bigger wins will require you to hit a bonus round or jackpot feature. On that note, let's move straight onto those.

the bounty slot bonus features

There are two main bonus rounds in The Bounty; first is the bounty jackpot bonus game which is triggered by landing the entire stacked bounty symbol that appears on the fifth reel only. Secondly, we have a free spin round which requires you to land all three available scatters on reels three, four, and five. We’ll examine each of these features in turn:
