Hacksaw Gaming Wild West Showdown
Triggered by green VS symbols. When multiple Outlaw DuelReels appear in a winning combination, their multipliers add together before applying to your win. Only one VS symbol can land per reel.
Activated by orange Bounty VS symbols. These provide progressive multipliers during free spins that increase each time Kate wins a duel, building massive win potential throughout the bonus round.
Red dynamite bundles substitute for all paytable symbols. Landing five wilds across a payline awards 3.00x your bet, making them valuable targets alongside the DuelReels mechanics.
Bullets and Bounty introduces a genuinely innovative mechanic with its DuelReels feature. Unlike standard expanding symbols, each VS trigger initiates a visual duel sequence where Katherine O'Callaghan faces off against an outlaw. The outcome determines your multiplier, ranging from 2x up to 100x. The critical distinction between Outlaw and Bounty DuelReels fundamentally changes your strategy during different game phases.
The True Grit bonus presents an immediate decision: accept 10 guaranteed free spins with progressive multipliers, or gamble for Four Shots to Freedom. The gamble wheel offers 33.3% chance at the premium bonus, 33.3% for 5x cash, 16.7% for 10x, and 16.7% for 20x. Statistically, the RTP remains identical at 96.26% regardless of choice, making this a pure volatility preference rather than mathematical advantage.
Four Shots to Freedom provides the most engaging bonus structure. The Bullets & Bounty Bar collects Bounty Hunter symbols appearing anywhere on the reels. Reaching each threshold triggers a DuelSpin where the specified number of VS symbols are guaranteed. Level 4 DuelSpins guarantee all five reels transform into DuelReels simultaneously, creating the game's highest win potential outside the hidden epic bonus.
Bad Blood FeatureSpins at 6.00 EUR offers the highest RTP at 96.36%, guaranteeing minimum two VS symbols each spin. This mode effectively turns every spin into a potential multi-multiplier event. Draw or Die FeatureSpins costs the same but guarantees Bounty VS symbols specifically, valuable for players who prefer the progressive multiplier mechanic over immediate additive multipliers.
The BonusHunt FeatureSpins at just 0.30 EUR increases bonus trigger frequency fivefold. With the always-gamble strategy, this achieves 96.33% RTP, making it mathematically superior to base game play whilst maintaining the thrill of organic bonus triggers. For extended sessions, this represents the optimal balance between cost and entertainment value.
The fixed 19 paylines create multiple crossing patterns across the 5x3 grid. Wins evaluate left to right from the leftmost reel, meaning symbols must connect sequentially. The payline structure favours mid-reel VS symbol placement, as these positions participate in more payline patterns. A VS symbol on reel 3 potentially multiplies more winning combinations than edge-reel placements.
Base game RTP of 96.27% sits comfortably above industry average. Feature buy options range from 96.24% to 96.36%, with Bad Blood FeatureSpins offering the mathematical edge. The minimal RTP variance across purchase options indicates Hacksaw Gaming balanced the features for entertainment preference rather than creating obvious mathematical advantages, allowing players to select based on desired gameplay experience rather than chasing fractional RTP differences.
