Desperados Wild Megaways gameplay info

The Desperados Wild Megaways Slot Game is visually enticing, with a wooden structure framing the reels. In the backdrop, we can see the sandy desert and cloud-filled blue skies. The accompanying soundtrack further enhances the theming.

In terms of symbols, you’ll find the usual low-playing playing card royals – 9, 10, J, Q, K and a – alongside high-value bottles of whiskey, crossed pistols, dynamite sticks and a sheriff’s badge. Unusually, there are four wild symbols, which are all represented by various cowboys. Each wild can substitute for all standard symbols to help form winning combinations. The bonus symbol in the game is the heap of gold coins.

Desperados Wild Megaways Slot minimum bet sits at a reasonable $/€/£00.20 per spin, with the highest possible wager limited to $/€/£20.00 per game. Given the relatively low upper bet limit, high rollers might choose to swerve this slot.

Cascading reels and free spins

Alongside the Megaways, the game has an inbuilt cascading reels feature. It means that each time you form a winning combination, the contributing symbols will disappear, and new symbols will drop in from above to replace them. It allows new combinations to develop, and the process can continue with the reels repeatedly cascading until no new winning combinations are available.

The free spins bonus round can be triggered by landing a minimum of four gold coin bonus symbols in any position across the reels. When this happens, you’ll be able to choose from two possible free spins options:

Sunset Free Spins. You’ll be awarded eight free spins with an increasing win multiplier that will go up with each successful cascade. Scatters and wilds can only appear on the horizontal reel at the top of the screen, but if you land three or four of them, you’ll be rewarded with five or ten extra free spins, respectively.

Jailhouse Free Spins. You’ll be awarded 12 free spins, and any wilds that land will fall to the bottom of the reel and lock in place until the end of the free spins round. If you manage to fill an entire reel with wilds, you’ll be rewarded with an additional five free spins.

Before deciding which option you want to go with, you’ll also be presented with an opportunity to gamble for even more spins.
