Free slot: Bounty Showdown

How Bounty Showdown works

Like every week, many providers offer new slot machines to their players. On this Tuesday, September 14, 2021, it is the provider Fantasma Games, which works in collaboration with Relax Gaming, that is making the Bounty Showdown slot available to online casino players. When you visit this slot, you will be plunged into the heart of the Wild West. Behind the starting grid are two men on horseback (on the right) and a wooden church (on the left). With an exciting background sound and beautiful colours, this slot is a real visual and auditory success. As far as the slot itself is concerned, a starting grid of 3 horizontal rows and 5 columns awaits you. There are no features in the base game, but bonus rounds can be unlocked with each spin.

The different symbols of Bounty Showdown

The Bounty Showdown slot has several different symbols. Rarely in the online casino world is there a wild symbol available in this slot. The first symbol we'll look at is the scatter symbol, represented by a skull and crossbones in the middle of a Colt Python magazine. This symbol allows you to get the free spins on this slot.

Then there are premium symbols. These are called premium symbols because they appear less often than the other symbols, but pay more consistently when they connect. They are represented by characters reminiscent of the Wild West.

• A masked man on a red background;

• A woman with a cigar in her mouth on a purple background;

• A man holding a dynamite against a green background;

• A woman with a long knife on a blue background.

In the following screen, the value displayed for each symbol and for a starting bet of €1.

As with every slot machine, in addition to premium symbols, you also have non-premium symbols in this slot machine. These symbols are so called because they appear more often than the other symbols, but pay much less when they connect. They are represented by the highest values in a pack of cards, namely Ace, King, Queen and Jack. As in the previous screen, the value shown in the following photograph is for a starting bet of €1.

The different connections of Bounty Showdown

Bounty Showdown is a slot machine that features a classic starting grid in the online casino world. As a result, the connections it offers are quite classic, as there are 10 different paylines available in this slot. They are broken down as follows:

For a connection to occur, a symbol must appear at least once in the first three columns of a row it connects. The further a symbol appears on your starting grid, the bigger your final win will be. It is important to note that connections on the Bounty Showdown slot machine only work from left to right.

How the Bounty Showdown bonus works

As mentioned in the introduction to this slot, Bounty Showdown contains a bonus feature. To trigger it, you will need to get at least three times the scatter symbol on a single game spin. Once this is achieved, the slot automatically grants you 10 free spins.

Before you start your free spins, you will be taken to an animation where several numbers are displayed. The barrel will spin and stop on a number and this number will simply be the multiplier of your winnings. Before each bonus round, you will be allowed three throws and each number the barrel stops on is added to the previous one.

To win money on this machine, you need to have the biggest multiplier. Every time a scatter symbol appears on your grid, it will pay you. In the following example, you can see that it appears once and pays you 18 times your original bet, as it has an 18x multiplier. It is possible to get extra free spins in this slot. To do this, you will need to get three scatter symbols on a single spin. As well as giving you three extra free spins, you'll also get a spin to increase your multiplier. This is the only feature to get your teeth into on Bounty Showdown.

Our opinion on Bounty Showdown

Bounty Showdown is a very good creation from Fantasma Games. First of all, we must underline the excellent work done by the studios regarding the sound atmosphere or the animations present on this slot machine. Unfortunately for it, this slot can quickly become redundant for those who like slots that offer features, whether in the base game or in the bonus rounds. Indeed, Bounty Showdown is a slot that is sorely lacking in features and this is quickly felt after a few spins. Fairly volatile, Bounty Showdown is still a slot where you can win up to 4,500 times your original bet if you're lucky. As far as the RTP (theoretical return to players) is concerned, it is 97.11%, which puts it in the high average range of slot machines. Finally, for those who don't have the patience to wait for the bonus feature, you can buy it directly for 80 times your initial stake.
