Dead Or Alive Symbols & Payouts
Not only do three or more scatter symbols trigger free spins, but it’s also the highest-paying symbol. The wild symbol is also a paying symbol and is the second-highest-value symbol. It can substitute for all symbols except the scatter symbol in Dead or Alive.
You’ll find that the sheriff’s badge is the next highest paying, followed by the gunslinger’s belt, a Stetson, cowboy boots, and a shot of bourbon. The royals, A, K, Q, J, and 10 comprise the low-value symbols. Here’s the Dead or Alive paytable for a bet per spin of £0.90:
Symbol | Match 2 | Match 3 | Match 4 | Match 5 |
10 | - | £0.20 | £1.00 | £2.50 |

Dead or Alive Bonus Features
When you turn up in a dead-beat town like this one, you’d better be able to hold your nerve and hope the bonus features get triggered. You’ll find that a range of outlaws like Jesse James appears as the sticky wilds, and the revolver scatter symbols can trigger free spins.
Here’s what you need to know about the game’s special features:
Sticky Wild
Wild symbols become sticky during free spins, and you’ll come up against some of the scariest outlaws around. When a wild symbol lands during a free spin, it stays in position and turns into one of five notorious outlaws: Billy the Kid, Jesse James, Della Moore, the Apache Kid, or Belle Starr. Five extra free spins will be activated if one or more sticky wild symbols appear on the reels.
Free Spins
The symbol with two revolvers and their bullets is the key to the free spins in this slot. If you land three or more revolver scatter symbols anywhere on the reels during the base game, you’ll be awarded 12 free spins. The winnings from free spins are paid at 2x. Free spins can be retriggered once per free spin session.
As we mentioned above, wild symbols become sticky during this round. If free spins are retriggered, the sticky wilds remain in place, so the gun-slingers can help you to make even more winning combinations.

The Wild West was a rugged and unforgiving place where you often had to shoot first or risk being shot. That period of American history was notorious for its bandits and outlaws, and tales of their infamous law-breaking deeds have been passed down over the years.
So, it’s no surprise that plenty of slots use the Wild West and its notorious inhabitants as the inspiration for some rapid-fire gameplay. There have been some incredibly successful Wild West-themed slots, such as Sticky Bandits, Money Train, and Tombstone.
