Slot Features
The sheriff’s badge is the Wild symbol in the game that can substitute for all the symbols in the game except the Scatter, and it can appear only on reels 2 through 5. Each time a Wild lands it will come with a random multiplier attached that can be x2, x3 or x5. If you happen to hit more than 1 Wild then the multipliers will multiply each other.
Free Spins
You will need to hit at least 3 Scatters to trigger the feature or buy your way into the feature. If you choose the classic way to the feature then you should know that apart from triggering the feature, the Scatters will also award scatter pays, which will depend on the number of triggering symbols. Once the feature is triggered, you will get 7 spins awarded.
During the feature, Wilds will also come with multipliers attached, and they will also stick to the reels until the feature ends, however, it’s not going to be unusual to see them change in size as the reel size changes.
Gold Badge is the Scatter overlay symbol that can appear randomly during the feature on top of any symbol including sticky Wild symbols, and these can award extra spins. You will need a minimum of 2 Overlays and can get a max of 6 Overlays to trigger between 2 and 6 spins. The number of spins depends on the number of symbols.
Summary
Wild West Gold Megaways is the expected revamp of the original. When we’re talking about visual aspects, it looks as solid as the original and the changes are cosmetics, luckily for the better. In terms of gameplay, there are some slight changes but mostly contributed to the new Megaways mechanic. What we found disappointing is the lowered max exposure which in Megaways version is now x5000, which, if you ask us, is seriously underestimating the power of Megaways, and I am sure everyone expected higher numbers. In any case, it’s a solid slot but with a very disappointing max win cap.
