Maverick Saloon Introduction
Howdy partner, it’s show time with this wild west themed free pokies game, Maverick Saloon from Games OS. There is plenty of action and drama with some great authentic sounds, so you will feel like you are part of the skirmish! If you think back to the American Wild West, images of galloping horses and dancing girls will spring to mind, with the background noise of gunshots and horses neighing.
The saloons were simply drinking establishments for the workers of the old American West, but gradually spread to towns and cities, as alcohol was served 24 hours a day. Quite often drunken brawls would start, and it is here in Maverick Saloon that you play in the middle of a street, lined with wooden shacks in a gold rush town. Play amongst buxom bargirls, gun wielding cowboys, sheriffs and feathered Indians to name but a few.
This game is exciting and fast paced, and not for the faint hearted! There are 9 paylines to this game, on five reels. The aim of the game is to match 3, 4 or 5 of the lower paying symbols - the nine through to the Ace. There is also the bargirl, Indian and cowboy that pay out in this way too, with a maximum of 400x your total bet. The top paying symbols are the sheriff and the priest, who pay out 750x your total bet, making this pokie a high paying game.
How to play
To set the game up, decide on how many lines you want to bet on, up to a maximum of nine, and how much you want to bet per line, between $0.05 and $250, making an overall maximum bet of $2250. You can set it to autospin between 10 and 2000 times, and there is a turbo button which spins the reels a lot faster than the normal playing mode. The spin button is a wooden wheel symbol to the bottom right of the screen. Let’s get spinning!
Special Symbols
Look out for the Wild Symbol, which substitutes for all the other symbols apart from the bonus symbol. It also doubles all wins. The bonus symbol needs to be matched 3 ,4 or 5 times anywhere on the reels to trigger the free spins. This is where the excitement happens, as you get to shoot at a Maverick, which determines the number of free spins, and the multipliers kick in here too.
Gamble Feature
Not all pokies have a gamble feature, but with Maverick Saloon you get to choose whether to gamble your win or not after every spin. This is where the last win amount is your stake and you gamble on the suit and colour of the next card. If you guess the colour correctly, your win is automatically doubled. Guess the suit right and your winnings are increased by four times.
Each time you win you can choose to either collect the winnings or have another go, up to five further times, to increase your pot of gold. Beware though, this is a gamble and you could lose the lot too!
