If poker was the favoured game of the Old West then let’s find out what all the fuss was about in the company of this online slot from Microgaming/Fortune Factory Studios; it’s called Showdown Saloon and it offers base game respins along with a free spins round.
Showdown Saloon is a five reel slot with three rows and fifteen fixed paylines; those reels spin on a tabletop strewn with poker chips, bullets and playing cards while twangy guitar soundtrack plays in the background.
The theme-related symbols include a pistol, a pile of blue chips, a bottle of booze and some dice; 10, J, Q, K and A represent the lower values.
The wild symbol is a Royal Flush which will substitute for all others to help form winning combos except for the Free Spins bonus icon.
Bonus Features
Mystery Stacks
In the base game and free spins there are stacks of mystery symbols which transform into matching ones on that reel; however the two leftmost stacks will always result in the same symbol.
Mystery Stacks Respin
This is triggered by landing two full stacks of matching symbols on reels one and two; those reels will be locked and the others respun for a chance at a win. Another matching stack on the next reel will continue the feature.
Free Spins
Trigger this by landing three, four or five full stacks of Free Spins symbols starting from the left hand side for which you will receive five, ten of fifteen free spins respectively.
Verdict
There’s a genuine Old West atmosphere to Showdown Saloon which complements the gameplay nicely; three separate bonus features add to the fun and it’s the Mystery Stacks Respin which seems to occur most frequently.
