Wanted Dead or a Wild
HacksawDescription
A Western-themed slot from Hacksaw on a 5x5 grid with 15 paylines, built around duelling VS symbols and a medium to high volatility profile. Its top prize reaches 12500 times the stake, and a Bonus Buy option gives direct entry to the bonus games.
How to play
The game uses 5 reels and 5 rows with 15 fixed paylines, so the bet is set first and then the reels are spun. Wins form along the lines, and VS symbols that land can trigger DuelReels, where they expand into wild reels if they are part of a winning combination after expanding. Three bonus games are available through play, and the Bonus Buy lets a player go straight into one of them. Autoplay is among the tools offered. A free demo lets the game be tried without staking, and it plays on phones and tablets as well as on desktop.
Theme and symbols
The setting is the Wild West, with outlaws, duels and a train robbery as the central ideas. The named symbols on the reels are the VS symbol, which marks a duel, and the Wild.
Features
DuelReels: landing VS symbols starts a duel. Once expanded, a VS that is part of a win becomes a wild reel, the winning outlaw's multiplier is applied to the whole reel, and several wild reels can appear together.
The Great Train Robbery Bonus Game: Wild symbols that land become sticky and can contribute to any number of winning combinations across spins.
Duel at Dawn Bonus Game: raises the chance of several VS symbols arriving at once, with up to five expanded DuelReels filling the screen.
Dead Man's Hand Bonus Game: a two-phase bonus. Wilds and multipliers are collected first. In the Showdown phase, the collected Wilds are placed in random positions on every spin and the accumulated multiplier applies to all wins.
Bonus Buy: purchases direct access to one of the bonus games; the bonus buy guide explains the mechanic. The medium to high volatility means results can swing noticeably, and the max win cap is 12500 times the bet. More titles are collected among all Hacksaw games.
