Dead West - Play for Real Money & Demo

Step into a deserted Wild West town where every spin can set off a chain reaction. Dead West from NetEnt brings a dark frontier setting to an action-packed slot, combining cascading wins, expanding features and persistent Hot Zone multipliers.

Played on a 6x7 grid, Dead West uses a scatter pays mechanic rather than traditional paylines. Land eight or more matching symbols anywhere on the grid to create a win, then watch the winning symbols disappear as new ones drop into their place. With a range of special features, a single spin can develop into a much longer sequence of wins.

The game has a 92.09% RTP and high volatility, making it a good choice for players who enjoy feature-heavy online slots with plenty happening across the reels.

Dead West Game Features

6x7 Grid and Scatter Pays

Dead West uses a 6x7 grid, with winning combinations formed by landing eight or more matching symbols anywhere on the reels.

Once a winning combination is formed, those symbols are removed from the grid and new symbols fall into the empty positions. If another winning combination appears, another avalanche begins automatically.

This means one spin can produce several consecutive wins as the reels continue to change.

Feature Lane

Above the main grid sits the Feature Lane, which can introduce special symbols into the game following an avalanche.

When one of these symbols reaches the main grid, its feature is activated once there are no further wins. The available features include:

• Bomb - Removes the symbol and surrounding symbols from the grid.
• Swap - Changes nearby symbols into the same symbol, with repeated transformations potentially creating Wilds.
• Multiply - Increases the value of multipliers on its reel and neighbouring reels.
• Expand - Turns its position into a Hot Zone and can increase its multiplier.
• Expand+ - Creates a larger area of Hot Zones and can build even stronger multipliers.

Once the feature has finished, another avalanche can begin.

Hot Zones

Hot Zones are a key part of Dead West's gameplay. At the beginning of each spin, at least two random positions are highlighted and given a multiplier of 1x, 2x or 3x.

If a Hot Zone forms part of a winning combination, its multiplier is applied to the win. After the winning symbols disappear, the multiplier can increase before the next avalanche.

Hot Zones can remain active throughout a sequence and carry over into the free spins feature, giving them the potential to become increasingly valuable.

Wild Symbols

Dead West includes regular Wilds as well as larger Colossal Wilds.

Regular Wilds can substitute for other paying symbols, while Colossal Wilds can occupy 2x2 or 3x3 positions, counting as four or nine Wilds respectively.

The larger Wilds can make a significant difference when they appear alongside winning combinations.

Dead West Free Spins

Land three or more Scatter symbols to trigger the free spins feature.

The number of Scatters determines how many free spins you receive.

The same number of free spins can be awarded again when additional Scatters appear during the feature.

One of the biggest advantages of the free spins round is that Hot Zones remain active between spins. This allows their multipliers to continue playing a role throughout the feature rather than resetting after every spin.
