Learn how a win forms before you spin
Five identical symbols joined edge to edge make a win in Wild West Gold Blazing Bounty, a Western-themed video slot. Only horizontal and vertical neighbours connect, so diagonal symbols do not count. There are no paylines and no ways to pay. When a spin forms several separate clusters, each one pays its highest win and the amounts are added together.
Ten free spins start when three or more Scatter symbols land anywhere on the grid. The number of Scatter symbols sets the pool of Multiplier values that Wilds can receive during the round. Wilds that land during the feature stick in place and build up until it ends. The feature cannot be retriggered.

Blazing Bounty
Follow each step before your first spin
Most players first worry about what a spin costs and how a win is counted.
Bet range before the first spin
Set the bet before the first spin, anywhere from A$0.20 to A$240. Every cluster win is worked out from that stake, so the same grid pays more at a higher bet.
Only the top win pays
Five or more identical symbols touching edge to edge, across or down, form a win. Only the highest win per cluster pays, and clusters in one spin add up.
Watch for WILD and SCATTER
The base game runs on WILD and SCATTER symbols across the 5x5 grid. Sticky Wild and Multiplier work in the free spins, where WILDs stay put and draw from a multiplier pool.
Ten free spins for three scatters
Three or more SCATTER symbols anywhere on the grid trigger a fixed 10 free spins, however many scatters land. It cannot be retriggered. The WILD multiplier pool depends on the scatter count.
How long will a session last?
Set your limit before the first spin, because the game has high volatility and no session length can be predicted. Stop when the limit is reached, not after the next big win.

Play for moneyWhat a single session can and cannot tell you
Three SCATTER symbols on the 5x5 grid start the Free Spins, but how often they land is not known in advance. The result of one session is random, and it stays random whatever the RTP. An RTP describes the average over a very large number of spins, not the next one, so a session can end far below or above the figure.
96.47, 96.48 and 96.51 are the three RTP versions of this slot. Which of them runs in the lobby is shown only in the game rules. So the rules are the only place to confirm which version you are playing.
x7,500 times the bet is the most this slot can pay, and a win at that ceiling is reached very rarely. At the A$10 example top bet that ceiling reads as A$75,000, but it is a limit, not a target.
Five questions answered
Sitting down to Blazing Bounty for the first time
The answers below cover volatility, RTP, learning the rules, the bonus buy and the earlier Wild West Gold.
How volatile is Wild West Gold Blazing Bounty?
The top win is 7,500 times the bet, which is A$75,000 at the A$10 example bet. The game has high volatility, so results swing widely from spin to spin. Nobody can predict when a large win will land.
What is the RTP of Wild West Gold Blazing Bounty and its versions?
96.47, 96.48 and 96.51 percent are the three RTP versions. RTP is a long-run average measured on A$100 staked, so it says nothing about a single session.
How do I learn Wild West Gold Blazing Bounty before staking real money?
A$0.20 is the minimum bet. Start there to see how clusters, Wilds and Sticky Wilds behave before you raise the stake. Three or more Scatters anywhere on the grid start the Free Spins round.
Can I buy the bonus in Wild West Gold Blazing Bounty?
A$1,000 is the cost of the Free Spins buy at the A$10 example bet, which is 100 times the bet. The Super Free Spins buy costs 500 times the bet, or A$5,000 at the same bet. Both buys are unavailable while the Ante Bet is on.
How does Wild West Gold Blazing Bounty differ from the earlier Wild West Gold?
10,000 times the bet is the top win of the earlier Wild West Gold, which returns 96.51 percent. Wild West Gold Blazing Bounty tops out at 7,500 times the bet with 96.48 percent. They are separate games with their own figures.
