About The Bounty
The design and theme are pretty standard as far as Wild West-themed slots go, set against a dusty town surrounded by old wooden buildings. The lower value symbols are represented by royals on old-fashioned playing cards, characters make up the higher value symbols including the Sheriff, a miner, and a thief.
Gameplay
A silver deputy badge is one of the wilds and this substitutes all symbols and can also pay up to 100x the bet on a payline.The Sheriff’s badge is the second wild, it can deliver a 2x multiplier which doubles your win if it helped in a winning combination.The Ambush Bonus features triggers when scatters land on the reels awarding 8 free games. Each win during the feature is awarded a 2x multiplier. If a bullet symbol appears it adds another spin and a dynamite symbol adds another 1x multiplier to your winnings.Look out for Wanted posters, you need to collect six of the same to trigger the Bounty Jackpot. The jackpots are worth between 5x to 1,250x the bet. If you land a golden poster this doubles the jackpot, multiple finds can lead to a huge 5,000x the bet.
Conclusion
The Bounty is nothing new in terms of design and I feel the graphics look a little outdated. However, the features can be highly lucrative, and more likely to attracts players rather than the design itself. With the addition of the bonus features and multipliers present in the base game there’s plenty of potential, but bigger wins are most definitely found in the features and the highest possible win you can achieve is 5,000x.
