Wild Outlaws

The Wild Outlaws slot by Light and Wonder is a wild west-inspired slot with cowboys and outlaws. It channels that black-and-white western outlaw movie aesthetic albeit with color and prizes. The background is set in the middle of a town street and you can feel the tension as if a gunslinging duel is about to happen. On the reels, you will see various cowboy-themed symbols with winning ways instead of paylines.

There are a few extra features in the game that include sticky wilds that look like wanted posters. Everything is designed to immerse you in the wild west theme. The ultimate feature is the Wild Revolver bonus where reels expand and you can win big. But there are also other mechanics like Premium Play and Gamble which make the game even more exciting. Let us see how all of this works and more in this Wild Outlaws slot review.

When it comes to the base game of Wild Outlaws, it is all about gunslinging in the main city square. You will be focusing on revolver bonus symbols and wanted poster wilds as these are the only features appearing in the base game. Before that, let us cover the basics.

There are 6 reels and 4 rows in the game with winning ways instead of paylines. There are 4096 ways to win and up to 10.000 ways in the free spins mode. You score a payout by landing at least 3 identical symbols on consecutive reels starting from the leftmost reel. The vertical position of the symbols does not matter as long as the reels are adjacent. Wins on multiple ways are added for a total payout.

The most common way of scoring wins are the 10 regular symbols. There are 6 low-wins that appear as card symbols from 9 to K. The 4 high-win symbols look like cowboy boots, a cowboy hat, an animal skull, and a bag of gold as the highest-paying symbol.

Players can also enable quick-spins with the lightning icon if they want faster gameplay.

When it comes to betting in the Wild Outlaws slot by Light and Wonder, there are a few different options for the player. The main one includes placing a regular wager on the reels anywhere from $0.2 to $10. This is a lower betting range than usual which might be relatively helpful not to overbet. The most you can win in this game is 16150x the bet. As for the RTP value, this game is just slightly above average with 96.10%.

Additional betting options also include activating Premium Play where your stake increases by 1.5x. Moreover, there is also the Gamble feature but more on these later.

Furthermore, the most common payouts are from regular symbols. Landing 6 symbols in a winning way will get you up to 1x your bet for the low-win symbols. As for the highest-winning symbol, you will get 10x the bet in the same circumstance.

There are various extra features in the Wild Outlaws slot by Light and Wonder that affect both your winnings and how you place bets. We can split them into the random passive features and the features you activate like Premium Play or Gamble. Let us cover both categories one by one.

• Wild and Bonus Symbols – Wilds in this game look like wanted posters and appear on reels 2, 3, 4, and 5. They serve their traditional function of substituting for regular symbols. Bonus symbols look like gun barrels.
• Wild Revolver Bonus – When you land two bonus symbols there is a chance that this bonus will trigger. If it does, the bonus symbols will change into bonus wilds and a number of bullets will be shot onto the reels transforming random symbols into wilds as well.
• Free Spins – Landing 3 or more bonus symbols activates free spins. Each bonus symbol’s gun chamber will spin and determine a value between 1-6. Once all have finished spinning, the combined values determine the number of free spins you get. There are 4 new reel positions in free spins that can hold sticky wild symbols once activated by landing wilds on their respective reels. With each locked wild comes a win multiplier as well.
• Premium Play – When you activate this button, your stake will change to 1.5x the original. If more than 1.6x the Premium Play stake is won then the Sheriff Bonus is activated and 12 sheriff badges are displayed. Each badge will reveal either a multiplier to your win or free spin bonuses.
• Gamble – When the Gamble button is active and 5x the stake, or 2.5x in combination with Premium Play, the Gamble is triggered. The Gamble screen will show the gamble cash value and gamble entry into free spins. You can adjust these values and have a chance to win them while gambling. A win will increase the current payout or add a number of FS while a loss will exit the Gamble screen.

As you can see, there is a lot to play with in this slot.
