A close look at Buckshot Wilds, from theme and features to every spin.
Buckshot Wilds takes NetEnt's established expanding reels formula and dresses it up in Wild West gear, giving players a 5x4 grid that can grow to 5x8 rows and 48 paylines. Up to three wild symbols can land on any spin, sliding down one row each time before dropping off the bottom, which keeps the reels feeling alive even outside the main bonus. When a wild lands on a trigger symbol it sets off a symbol shootout, turning adjacent symbols wild across horizontal, vertical and diagonal directions. Random expanding reels can also widen the grid to its full 8 row height, cloning wilds found in the top four rows further down the same reel. Landing 3, 4 or 5 scatters triggers the free spins round, where the reels lock into their expanded form and each spin guarantees a new wild, with extra free spins available on retrigger. Set in a dusty desert town that shifts to a lively saloon scene during the bonus, Buckshot Wilds leans on a classic western aesthetic rather than anything groundbreaking. A feature buy option lets players jump straight to the free spins for those wanting faster access to the action.
Slot Rating
* Exact score 2.7208, rounded to 2.7 for display.
Buckshot Wilds rounds up a familiar set of expanding wild mechanics for a solid, if not spectacular, Wild West shootout. It is a steady medium to high volatility ride rather than a game built for jaw dropping jackpot wins.
