COWBOYS & ALIENS

About Cowboys & Aliens

The worlds of cowboys and aliens collided for the first time in 2011, with the release of the eponymous and much-maligned Jon Favreau film. The Western-themed Playtech title, which spans 5 reels and 9 paylines, is a true blockbuster. Cowboys & Aliens includes three different bonus features. The Alien Weapon feature, which is triggered when the gun symbol appears on the first reel, is the first. When it appears, the gun's triangle spins at random, selecting a number between one and four. The number specifies the number of random symbols that will be shot at and transformed into wilds. This essentially means that on a re-spin, you can earn up to four wild symbols. 

Special Features

The spaceship wild, on the other hand, is the best-paying symbol in the game, paying 10,000 for five and replacing all other symbols except three: the Alien Attack bonus, the Alien Weapon rifle, and the Cowboys & Alien scatter. The game is quite simple to learn. Info, AutoPlay, and Spin buttons are located at the bottom of the screen. Additionally, there are plus and minus buttons to help you configure your line bet. The paylines are fixed at nine, but each line can be staked between 0.01 and 100 credits. Meanwhile, you can set AutoPlay to 10, 25, 50, or even 99 spins. 

Another interesting bonus is the Alien Attack Bonus. It is triggered when the Bonus symbol appears on reels one and five. The aliens will assault in three waves, and all you have to do is choose which one to kill. Three characters, Verity, Zeke, and Indian Warrior, appear on a split-screen, each with their own ammunition but varying hit accuracy. Zeke has a six-bullet pistol with high accuracy, Verity has a whip with 20 shots and low precision, and the Indian Warrior has a dozen arrows with medium accuracy. You'll get a cash bonus, a 2x multiplier, or more ammo for every confirmed kill. 

Bonus Features

When your ammo runs out or all of the aliens are killed, the bonus ends. If you successfully assassinate all of the aliens, you will receive an additional monetary prize. You'll also be awarded if you have any extra ammunition. Finally, there's a feature called Free Games. Three or more Cowboys & Aliens scatters anywhere on the reels will activate this feature. Eight free spins and comic strip wilds will be given to you. A highlighted rectangle appears on the reels during every spin. The highlighted rectangle becomes wild when the reels stop spinning. A rectangle covering a new area will act as wild on the next spin, and this will continue until the last spin.
