Saddle up, partner, because youโ€™re heading back to the days when Jesse James and Billy the Kid ran riot. Outlaw Saloon is a Wild West-themed online slotsย game brought to you by Gold Coin Studios.ย 

Get ready to step back in time to an era when bands of outlaws ran the show, where everyone was considered a cowboy or cowgirl, and throwing back tequilas at the saloon on a Sunday was the thing to do.

Check out this in-depth review of Gold Coin Studioโ€™s Wild West-themed slot.

Game Overview

Thereโ€™s a proliferation of online casino games set in the Wild West, but this is Gold Coin Studioโ€™s first foray into it. This is an entertaining 5×3 slot with 20 active paylines. The minimum bet is $0.2, and the maximum bet is $25.ย 

Youโ€™re taken on a journey to a dusty outlaw saloon in a desolate town by a cowgirl and two cowboys, where youโ€™ll find several great features and bonuses in this online casino game. Thereโ€™s a return to player (RTP) of 96%, which is respectable for online slots.ย 

This video slot has multipliers up to 9x your original wager, several free spin bonuses and a unique wild symbol feature that increases your odds of winning. The game ticks all the boxes to boost your odds when playing online slots.

A maximum win of 10,000x your original bet, alongside the interesting wild symbols, free spins, a general slots bonus and scatter symbol prizes, means that this could be a lucrative game if you play your cards right.

How To Play

If you regularly partake in online gambling, particularly slots, then Outlaw Saloon’s base game will be super straightforward. Keep in mind, however, that itโ€™s not really this area with the potential for big wins but the features and bonuses that really make this game worth playing.ย 

As with most slot games, youโ€™ll need to land three or more of the same symbols across paylines on adjacent reels to form a winning combination. In Outlaw Saloon, winning combinations start from the left side. Lower-paying symbols are the card suits, while there are several different high-paying symbols that youโ€™ll get more details on in the graphics section.

Regular wilds will appear on the second, third and fourth reels thatโ€™ll substitute for any regular symbols and improve your chances of forming a winning combination. However, the most valuable payouts of this game lie in the special wild features, bonus rounds and free spins (covered below.)

Graphics

Outlaw Saloon takes place on the creaky wooden porch of an old-school saloon located in a rather desolate town. The purple and blue sunset behind the building sets the mood, while a soundtrack with banjo and accordion certainly adds a sense of Wild West adventure.

The lower-paying symbols in Outlaw Saloon are the playing cards, which are represented as hearts, clubs, diamonds and spade card suits. These will pay out 5x your original wager if you land five of the same symbols across the payline.

The higher-paying symbols to look out for include a money bag, a cowboy holding cards, a cowgirl, a gun-slinging cowboy, poker chips and the Outlaw Saloon logo. These will award between 12.5x and 100x your wager for landing five symbols.ย 

The regular wild symbol is just a simple W thatโ€™ll replace all other regular symbols. There are five other special feature wild symbols that youโ€™ll see below.

Features

Outlaw Saloon really delivers on this front, and you can look forward to several unique features to enhance your winnings.

Special Wild Features

Three special symbols act as wilds in Outlaw Saloon. These are the sheriff badge, gold bar and drink symbols.ย 

The sheriff badge is actually the original scatter symbol, and itโ€™ll land on reels two, three and four. Itโ€™ll lock in place when it lands while the rest of the reels respin. If you end up with eight of these locked symbols, youโ€™ll trigger eight free spins. The badge can also randomly act as a wild, replacing all regular paying symbols.

The gold bar is a wild that also only appears in the second, third and fourth reels, and youโ€™ll get a free spin for every gold bar you land. Land three, four or five anywhere on the reels, and youโ€™ll get 50x, 500x, or 5000x your original bet, respectively. Gold bars do not count toward regular winning combinations.

Three different drink symbols will only appear in their respective free spins features. Look out for the whiskey, tequila or wine symbols during your free spins round, as these special wilds could reward you with a respin, multiplier or cash prize.

Bonuses and Jackpots

When it comes to the dos and donโ€™ts of playing online slots, one of the most obvious dos is looking for games with good bonus rounds. Luckily Outlaw Saloon has three different free spins bonus rounds.

Land eight or more of the sheriffโ€™s badge symbol, and youโ€™ll trigger a free spins bonus. Youโ€™ll have to choose between three free spins options, each represented by one of the gameโ€™s three main characters. Each round has eight or nine free spins depending on the number of sheriff badges that landed to trigger the round.

Multiplier Free Spins

The whiskey bottle symbol is the special wild for this round and itโ€™ll land across reels two to four. Each whiskey bottle will award one free spin and landing one, two or three whiskey bottles will have a multiplier of 3x, 6x and 9x your bet, respectively.

Guaranteed Respins Free Spins

Any whiskey bottles that land in this round will be replaced with tequila shots. One tequila guarantees another tequila and an extra respin, and theyโ€™ll be locked in place while the reels spin. These act as wilds and will replace other symbols to form a winning combination.

Cash Prize Free Spins

The wine glasses are the wilds here, and theyโ€™ll land on reels two, three and four. If you land them during this round, theyโ€™ll award one respin per symbol. The symbol awards a cash prize between 2x and 50x your bet.
