How Wild West Gold plays
Wilds land only on reels 2, 3 and 4 and carry 2x, 3x or 5x; several wilds on one line add their multipliers. Three scatters on reels 1, 3 and 5 start 8 free spins in which every wild becomes sticky with its multiplier for the rest of the round. Scatter overlays can land on any symbol during the round, and two to five of them add 4, 8, 12 or 20 spins. If the round pays under 10x bet, 10x is awarded.

Features in this game
- Sticky wilds: A wild that stays in place for more than one spin, usually through a respin sequence or a whole free spins round.
- Multipliers: A value such as ×2 or ×10 applied to a win, a spin or a whole feature, multiplying the amount paid.
- Free spins: A bonus round of spins played at no extra cost, usually triggered by scatter symbols and often with extra features.
What the figures mean
An RTP of 96.51% is a long-run average across millions of spins. It works out at a house edge of 3.49%, so every £100 staked costs £3.49 on average. A session of 200 spins at £1 stakes £200, and the expected cost of that session is £6.98, although the real result will usually land a long way either side. Work out your own figures.

Notes on the data: 40 paylines from the launch release (the game symbol vs40wildwest agrees). The intro-screen meter reads 'low' even though the game pays up to 10,000x; treat the indicator with care. Pragmatic does not print a volatility word in this game's rules; 'volatility_indicator' is the three-step low/mid/high setting the build ships for its intro-screen meter (read from the game files on demogamesfree.pragmaticplay.net).
