Dead West is a NetEnt slot with seven reels, high volatility and an RTP of 96.03%. The game uses an Avalanche mechanic, where winning symbols clear and new ones fall into place. Players can use the demo version to play for free and practice before playing for real money.
The feature set centres on Hot Zones, which appear in random reel positions and carry multipliers that can rise after a win. Special symbols on the Feature Lane can trigger Expand, Expand+, Multiply, Swap or Bomb effects, each altering symbols or multipliers on the grid. Colossal Wilds can also appear on the vertical reels, while regular Wilds may drop in after an Avalanche.
Free Spins are awarded with 3 or more Scatter symbols, with additional spins possible during the bonus round. Hot Zone multipliers carry over into Free Spins, and all Special Features remain active. An optional Elevate Feature can increase the chance of Free Spins or guarantee Hot Zones, Special symbols, or Scatter-triggered rounds at higher bet levels.
