Theme

The game’s theme revolves around the iconic 80s music band Bon Jovi, whose hit song "Wanted Dead or Alive" is immortalized in this slot. Players will feel like they’re part of a Wild West showdown as they navigate through five reels and twenty paylines. The graphics are crisp, colorful, and vibrant, with animated elements that bring the game to life.

Design

The design of Wanted Dead or Alive slots reflects its Western-inspired theme. Players can expect to see classic slot symbols such as high-value playing card icons (Aces, Kings, Queens), cowboy boots, sheriff badges, guitars, and wanted posters featuring a distinctive illustration of Bon Jovi’s frontman Jon Bon Jovi. The game’s background image showcases an open range with rolling hills, a fitting backdrop for the Wild West setting.

Symbols

The slot features nine regular symbols, each with its own distinct payouts:

  1. Sheriff Badge : pays 3x bet
  2. Guitar : pays 5x bet
  3. Wanted Poster (Jon Bon Jovi) : pays 10x bet
  4. Cowboy Boots : pays 15x bet
  5. A, K, Q, and J are the four low-value playing card icons that pay between 2x to 1x bets

Payouts

The payouts in Wanted Dead or Alive slots are influenced by the number of winning combinations formed on active paylines. Players can win up to 1500 times their stake for a single spin, making it an attractive option for high-stakes players.

Wilds

As with most slot games, there is no traditional Wild symbol. However, Jon Bon Jovi and his fellow bandmates appear as stacked wild symbols on reels two through five, increasing the chances of forming winning combinations. When a stacked wild appears on a payline, it expands to fill the reel and replaces all other regular symbols.

Scatters

The game features three scatters, each representing one-third of Bon Jovi’s iconic song title: "Wanted," "Dead," or "Or Alive." These scatters can appear anywhere within the five reels. When a player lands at least two scatters on an active payline, they trigger the slot’s top prize: 1500x their total bet.

Bonus Features

In addition to free spins and re-spins triggered by wilds and scatters, Wanted Dead or Alive has several bonus features:

  • Wanted Feature : when a player lands at least two "Wanted" scatters on an active payline, they win 20 times their total bet.
  • Dead Feature : three or more "Dead" scatters reward players with up to 50 free spins and 2x multipliers for each spin.
  • Or Alive Feature : four or five "Alive" scatters activate up to 75 re-spins, giving players an opportunity to score significant wins.

Free Spins

Wanted Dead or Alive offers two types of free spin features: the Wild West Free Spin feature and the Rock Star Re-Spins feature. In the former, three to five wild reels appear on a player’s first, second, third, fourth, or fifth reel respectively, triggering 10 to 50 spins with multipliers up to 1x, plus two times your bet multiplied by total line wager.

The latter offers re-spins as described above.
