The old West is our destination for this brand new online slot from IGT and it’s a game dedicated not to the cowboys and outlaws of that era but instead it’s a tribute to the girls, mostly scantily clad ones, who inhabited the frontier towns in that exciting period.
Western Belles plays out over five reels and up to forty paylines; the design of the game immediately brings to mind it’s subject matter with the reels set in a wooden frame against a desert background. Even the lower value playing card symbols are designed with the theme in mind.
The higher value symbols are a boot, a ten gallon hat and two girls posing in a kind of 1940s style. A big red lipstick mark is the wild symbols and the feature is activated by the Bonus scatter symbol.
Bonus Features
Stacked Wild
When you are choosing the number of lines you would like to play it’s also possible to ensure that one stacked wild appears on every spin. This wild will cover all positions on one random reel but will cost an extra 160 coins per spin (200 coins total wager) so think carefully about whether or not you want to activate it.
You must be playing with all forty paylines to use it and the stacked wild can also contain a Bonus symbol.
Free Spins
There are five free spins available for any player who can land the Bonus scatter symbol on reels two, three and four; five free spins may not sound like much but there are more stacked wilds on the reels for the duration and if you’ve paid for the extra wild reel in the base game you will find yourself with two in this feature.
The free spins can be re-triggered by landing more scatter symbols up to a maximum of 255.
Western Belles Online Slot Playing Tips
The guaranteed wild may be a fun feature but it costs a lot of money; you will have the same chance of triggering the bonus whether you’re playing one or forty paylines so use this feature carefully.
Verdict
This is a top quality slot with some great graphics and appropriately Western sound effects and it’s well worth checking out. Two extra features only add to the cowgirl fun.
