Dead or Alive Game Description

Dead or Alive is a western-themed video slot. Background sound effects play that resemble the well-known coyote howl from The Good, The Bad and The Ugly. You can see a western town in the background of the video slot, with a lamp swinging back and forth and a windmill turning. Symbols on the Dead or Alive video slot include Wanted Posters (sticky wild symbols), Pistols (scatter symbol), Sheriff’s Badge, Gun/Holster, Cowboy Hat, Boots, Whiskey and Ace, King, Queen, Jack and Ten symbols. The high card symbols make more sense in Dead or Alive than most other video slots, as playing poker is a staple of the western genre.

Dead or Alive Summary

Dead or Alive offers a unique sticky wild symbol gimmick for its free spins feature, which definitely makes it stand out a bit and can lead to some good wins. The main negatives to the Dead or Alive video slot are that we could think of so many great ideas for bonus games and it doesn’t have one and also that the payouts aren’t very high. The actual presentation of the slot with the 3D-style symbols is excellent and one of the reasons we like playing the Dead or Alive video slot at Bovada.
