Wild West Slot Review

NextGen Gaming slot releases often come along in pairs and this month sees Titan Storm, also available here on the site, being joined by Wild West. The name may be a little uninspiring and it is fair to say that there are already plenty of games out there that make use of the same theme, as evidenced by the Wild West slots section that is absolutely packed with great games. However, we’re always willing to expand the selection and a few spins will immediately demonstrate that this is one of the most innovative new slot titles that NextGen has ever released.

The first unusual feature on Wild West becomes apparent as soon as you set about placing your bets. The game is played over just ten win lines, and the normal part of placing coins on these lines continues as standard. However, you’ll also have the option of placing the Super Bet alongside your main stake, and can unlock additional features by doing so. All ten lines together with an additional ten coins will apply a two times multiplier to all wild wins. Ten lines and a further forty coins will multiply all wild wins by five and it is well worth having a few practice spins to see how this works out for you.

Keep Em’ Coming Cowboy

The wild card that you’ll need to land for these multipliers is, understandably, the cowboy. However, not only will he fill in for any other symbol but he’ll also award free spins. The best part is that you only need one to land on the board for five completely free spins, just as long as he forms part of a winning combination. When you enter that bonus, further cowboys are worth five more spins each and you can also land the chip stack scatter, which pays the chip prize, displayed on the screen during the bonus itself. On one occasion, while playing for $5 per spin ($1 plus the forty coin ante), the chip was worth $500 and we landed two stacks of three on a single spin making for quite the lucrative round!

There is plenty to get excited about here on Wild West by NextGen and it is plenty of fun to play. See it in action now without risking any of your bankroll by playing with no deposit required right here on the page, or find the real money version at the recommended casinos featured at the top of the feature.
