This slot is for the Western film lovers.
Themed around cowboys with a gold rush vibe, the game is set in a low-lit saloon. Players will find themselves in the company of sheriffs and bandits, some surly-eyed, and others seductive. The cinematic atmosphere suggests players are up against the bad guys, and the showdown starts with each spin.
With plenty of booze and guns, this world is bronco-ready, though occasionally stereotypical.
If players are in the mood for a light-hearted Western feel, it’s a fun ride.
The background music brings to mind the moment in a Western film when the villain and hero lock eyes. This adds drama to each spin, as if the happy ending is on the line.
Overall, the soundtrack blends into the general atmosphere and most players will probably leave it on.
The animation style leans into the fantasy of the frontier. The symbols are predictable, but fun choices such as lucky horseshoes, spurs, whiskey, and pistols. The highlight is the characters which span from a sexy cowgirl-turned-bandit to a gruff-looking sheriff. Each one has their personality highlighted upon wins as they animate.
Unapologetically committed to its genre, the visuals and music certainly add an enjoyable atmosphere.
Cowboys Gold is a five reel, three row slot, with 10 win lines.
Gameplay is smooth and stays exciting (see next section for bonuses).
The Wild symbol substitutes for all symbols except the Bonus symbol and the Renegade symbol.
Appearing only on reels 2, 3, and 4, the Bonus symbol triggers the Free Spins Feature whenever players land three.
The Free Spins Feature can also be awarded for any number of Bonus symbols and a Renegade symbol. Players can retrigger the Free Spins Feature up to three times. Each time the feature is retriggered, players gain 5 additional free spins, and they will see a Multiplier increase for the collect money feature (up to 25 spins and x5 Multiplier).
The Money Collect Feature means that Cowboy symbols can be given a bet Multiplier (an amount assigned at random). This Multiplier may be x1 to x100 the player's total bet. Should a Renegade symbol land on a spin, the player wins the total of the Cowboy Multipliers on the reels at the time.
Landing a Renegade symbol during the Free Spins Feature adds escalating Multipliers to wins.
