Cowboys And Aliens Slot Overview

Cowboys and Aliens is one of the slots from the Playtech collection. Inspired by the comic book series of the same name and the subsequent movie Cowboys and Aliens brings together two of the most popular genres of slots in one cosmic adventure.

The base game opens on a classic 5x3 grid which creates just 9 active bet ways. Fortunately, the game comes with some interesting features to enhance gameplay, which could otherwise prove a little dull. There is a top value wild symbol and more can be added when the Alien weapon symbol lands on reel 1. The game also has a paying scatter symbol and three or more trigger eight free spins. Large wild rectangles appear in different positions during these games played on different reels.

There is also a bonus symbol and when it lands on the two outside reels, it triggers a bonus game where players can win cash prizes, a win multiplier and extra rounds during the bonus.

Favourite genres combine in this comic book slot.
