The True Sheriff Slots
The True Sheriff is a thrilling online video slot game with an wild west and adventure theme and was crafted and released by innovative developers Betsoft Gaming in October 2013.
This game takes players on a journey to a small frontier town where a ruthless villain is intent on robbing the saloon and there is only man brave enough to confront him which is the good old Sheriff of course. It is packed with some amazing bonus features particularly in the memorable duel showdown and the double up round.
A gaming grid framed in wood is presented of 5 reels, 3 rows and 30 active paylines. The backdrop shows the dusty streets with the sheriff standing to the right of the reels. The visuals bring a cartoon element with some high definition 3D graphics and cinematic animations like when the sheriff flips his hat, enjoying a smoke or shooting his Colt 45 . The soundtrack features a shrill howling coyote backed with some tense country music.
Players will need to land at least three matching and identical symbols on a payline to create wins which pay out from left to right. Bets will need to be laid first to begin the game and the minimum bet starts at just $0.60 per spin with the maximum bet is $150.00 per spin. This wide betting range offers a multitude of options for every kind of punter from beginners to the high rollers.
A useful convenience is the Autoplay button which allows for a number of pre automated spins (up to 1,000) to be set up beforehand which can aid greatly in maintaining a particular gaming budget. Equally, it is a handy tool for those who dislike manual play.
A Double Up Feature can be used after every winning spin and every correct guess on whether the next card will be red or black will double payouts.
The RTP (Return to Player Percentage) is 97.03% and the volatility is medium. This means that a consistent flow and frequency of medium sized payouts can be expected during the course of the game. This makes it an appealing choice for a wide spectrum of player including novices and more experienced veterans.
The gaming symbols are stylized in an Old West fashion and include the low paying playing card symbols Ace through to Jack styled as spurs, belt buckles and horseshoes. They are joined by an attractive barmaid the old mayor, a sneaky looking bandit and the brave Sheriff who are the premium paying symbols. The sheriff pays the highest with 5 of a kind earning players 1,200 their line bet.
The wild symbol is a blue card labelled as ´Wild´´ and it appears on the three middle reels and can substitute for the other gaming symbols but not the scatter or bonus symbols. It also pays out a huge 3,000x for five across a winning payline. The sheriff´s badge is the scatter and it triggers the free spins whilst the bonus symbol is represented by the gun.
The gun plays a pivotal role in this slot. When the gun symbol appears anywhere on the centre reel the Sheriff will pop up, draw his gun and start shooting to turn five random symbols into wilds. Whenever a winning combination is created using this random wild players can earn a re-spin with the wilds that remain stuck on the reels. Three wilds will allow payouts up to $150, four wilds will bring 10x the bet up to $1,500 and five wilds will earn 100x the bet up to $15,000.
Three, four and five Sheriff badge scatters will award players with 10, 12, and 15 free spins respectively. These free spins cannot be retriggered and below each reel there is a sheriff badge counter where the badges are collected and players can earn themselves an extra bonus prize at the end of the free spins.
If the gun symbol spins between the sheriff and the villain symbol then the Showdown Bonus Feature begins. Choosing heads or tails will determine the size of the payout and every win during the bonus round will take players one step higher to the main prize and if chosen incorrectly players will go back one step.
The True Sheriff slot game is fully mobile optimized so it is perfect for on the go play from wherever and whenever. Players can enjoy a seamless gaming experience from either a desktop or from a compatible smartphone or tablet device such as iOS Apple, Android or Samsung.
