A whole 5 years have passed since the grisly men of the west rolled through town in 2013’s First Dead or Alive slot. Now, with the lust for big scores and loot to be had the action has returned to the unnamed western frontier in Dead or Alive II. Players have 3 free spins features available, yes sir-ee, not to mention a host of other delectable chances to rake in the bucks. So, let’s ride into town and see what treats you’ll find in this hotly awaited sequel.
Dead or Alive II is the latest creation of NetEnt, one of the biggest and most prestigious iGaming studios in the world. The graphics of this title are simply splendid, and show just how high the production value efforts are of NetEnt titles. The game opens to a screen with a bunch of characters central to the western theme, as well as all the specific features you’ll encounter as the game unfolds. The background to the reels is the main road of a dusty old town, while the symbols lie directly on the background. NetEnt have ensured that mobile users will have a seamless experience, as desktop users are definitely not placed above their mobile counterparts.
NetEnt has made the max win in coins 2,000,000, which is a massive amount. Obviously you have the chance to set your coin value so the higher you set it the higher the cash payout will be. The wagering limits are quite strange in Dead or Alive II online slot. The maximum players can wager is £18.00 per spin which is a little random, while the minimum bet available to players is £0.09 per spin. Experienced players will know that the higher you wager the higher your wins are likely to be.
The symbols are very much a continuation of the original, with symbols divided into higher paying symbols, lower paying symbols and a few special symbols thrown into the mix. The lower paying symbols are very standard and you’ll recognise them as playing cards 10, J, Q, K and A. The font of these symbols is very much styled on the western saloons from yonder years. The higher paying symbols consist of a bottle of whisky and a glass, some rugged cowboy boots, a snazzy Stetson hat, a vintage six shooter and a sheriff’s badge. The sheriff’s badge is the highest paying of all symbols with the potential to pay 1000x your bet if 5 of a kind line up.
NetEnt have included 5 different wild symbols – 5 residents of the western town, all wielding weapons except for the 1 scallywag lighting his tobacco. Wild symbols substitute all regular symbols to create a winning payline. The scatter symbol is represented by 2 crossing revolvers lying under a cow skull. This symbol will make the free spins a reality.
By landing 3 or more scatter symbols on the same spin you’ll trigger a free spins round. However, instead of being given a set number of spins the player will be able to select 1 of 3 free spins options. There’s the Old Saloon Free Spins, the High Noon Saloon Free Spins and the Train Heist Free Spins.
In the Old Saloon Free Spins all wins will be multiplied by 2 while 5 extra spins will be awarded if 1 or more sticky wilds land. The High Noon Saloon Free Spins award multipliers if 2 – 3 wild symbols fall on the same reel with 5 extra spins for sticky wilds landing during the spins. The last free spins option is the Train Heist spins and wilds falling adds a multiplier as well as 1 additional free spin. Get the multipliers all the way to 16x and 5 free spins will be awarded.
So there you have it, Dead or Alive II slot. There isn’t too much to set this game apart from what you might have played in the past, but the free spins options are a nice touch and let you take your bonus round destiny into your own hands. It’s also generous of NetEnt to add 5 wild symbols to increase the winning potential. This is a good game for beginners as well as seasoned players.
