The ‘Wild’ symbol is wild.
There are three bonus features when playing Cowboys and Aliens. The first bonus feature is activated when you receive the ‘Ray Gun’ symbol anywhere on reel 1. When this happens the Ray Gun will randomly shoot up to four other symbols, changing them into Wild symbols.
The second bonus feature is activated when you receive three or more of the ‘Cowboys and Aliens’ scatter symbols anywhere on the reels. When this happens you will be awarded 8 complimentary spins. During the complimentary spins, an area of 4 symbols will be randomly highlighted on the reels. These four symbols will act as wild symbols. Each spin the symbols affected by this change.
The third bonus feature is activated when you receive the ‘Bonus’ symbol on reel 1 and 5. When this happens you will be taken to a new screen and asked to select one of the three characters; the Cowboy, the Cowgirl or the Indian. Once you’ve selected your character you’ll be taken to a new screen and waves of aliens will attack your characters. Select the aliens to try and stop. Each alien you successfully stop will award a cash prize, a multiplier or additional ammo. The bonus feature ends when you run out of ammo.
Conclusion
Cowboys and Aliens offers some great bonus features and the unique pay structure is fun, but its house edge is prohibitively expensive.
