Online Slot Review of The True Sheriff by Betsoft

The True Sheriff Free Spins

The Sheriff's badge is the Scatter and if 3 or more symbols land anywhere on the reels that will create winning combinations and they will also activate 10–15 free spins. Free spins are played with the same bet settings you had during the main game and they cannot be changed. Three symbols award 10 free spins, four award 12 free spins and five award 15. 

One more bonus feature is active during free spins. Every time a Scatter symbol appears on the reels, it will be added to a separate scale. After free spins are over you will win additional payouts, depending on the number of segments of the scale that are filled. Your reward will be proportional to your total bet. 

Wild Guns Bonus

The gun symbol anywhere on the third reel activates the Wild Guns feature. The sheriff who is next to the game screen, shoots several times and turns random symbols into Wilds. These symbols then trigger free re-spins and stay fixed in their positions.

Symbols with the word "Wild" replace missing symbols in combinations and can also create combinations of three, four and five symbols in a row if they land on adjacent reels along one of the active paylines,starting with the leftmost reel. 

Showdown Bonus

Once the gun appears between sheriff and villain symbols, the bonus game is launched. The length of a combination and the position of symbols affect this bonus level. There are four types of combinations with the gun, the symbols need to land in the order "sheriff–gun–villain" or "villain–gun–sheriff" and can only land:

• On the first, second and third reels
• On the third, fourth and fifth reels

However, if the winning combo lands on the second, third and fourth reels, so the gun is in the centre of the screen, the Wild Guns bonus as described above, will become active but the bonus game will not be launched.

You will see a duel between the sheriff and the villain and you need to play a "heads or tails" game to try to guess the result. If you guess correctly, you will win and the villain will be defeated. If you guess incorrectly you will lose.

By guessing correctly several times in a row, you move the scale to the largest prize of the bonus game. Your win depends on the size of your total bet, so the higher the cost of a spin, the greater payout you will get. 

Symbols and Payouts

Rewards in the paytable are shown in credits and the size changes depending on your bet and line settings. Below we list the winnings for combinations if you are playing with the maximum bet:

• 10 and J - 25, 100 and 450 coins for three, four and five symbols of a kind
• Q and K - 25, 150 and 600
• A - 50, 225 and 900
• A lady - 75, 300 and 1,200
• A man with grey moustache - 75, 450 and 1,800
• A villain - 150, 600 and 4,500
• A sheriff - 150, 900 and 6,000

You can see in the pay table that only two symbols out of nine cover the cost of a spin by appearing in three positions in a row. Special symbols help you increase rewards. These are:

• A gun - is a symbol that launches free spins
• The Wild - is a blue picture that says "Wild"
• The Scatter - is the sheriff's badge
