The John Wayne

Rules of the John Wayne Slot

The structure of the John Wayne slot includes 5 reels with 3 cells each and 25 configurable payoff lines. The control menu is situated underneath the reels. The number of active payoff lines can be defined by the “+” and “-” keys in the Lines menu. The Line Bet element is situated near the menu and it allows gamblers to define the size of bet per line in the range from 0.01 to 50 credits. This sum is automatically multiplied by the number of active payoff lines. The maximum overall bet size in this video slot is 1250 credits.

You can use the Spin button to launch the reel spins. Before you do that, you can pull up payoff table by clicking on the Info button and find out more about payoffs and coefficients available in the game. The control panel also has the Bet Max button (instantly places maximum bet on all active payoff lines) and the Auto Play button (activating the automatic spins mode).

Symbols and Coefficients

In the John Wayne slot, the wild symbol is the actor’s portrait. In winning combinations this symbol replaces any other symbols except the Bonus writing and the Sheriff’s star. The wild symbol has following coefficients: 10, 100, 500, and 5000. The highest payoffs are granted by the icons featuring close-up portraits of John Wayne and have following coefficients:

• John Wayne in a black hat – 50, 200, 1000
• John Wayne in a white hat – 30, 100, 500
• John Wayne in a gray hat – 25, 75, 300

The cowboy hat icon will multiply your linear bet size by 20, 60, or 200 times. The bandana and boots icons have coefficients equal to 15, 50, and 100. Playing card symbols will get you payoffs with coefficients ranging from 5 to 75.

The Sheriff’s star icon allows gamblers to get instant bonus payoffs. Their size depends on how many star icons you got in a single spin anywhere on the reels. If you get three-star icons, your overall bet will be multiplied by a coefficient in the 4 – 8 range, four-star icons will get your overall bet size multiplied by a coefficient in the 20 – 30 range, and five-star icons – by a coefficient in the 80 – 120 range. The exact coefficient is assigned randomly by the slot.

The Bonus icon grants the gambler access to free spins if it appears simultaneously on the first, third, and fifth reels. At first, you’ll get three free spins with a coefficient equal to 1. Before the round begins, you’ll see a playing field displaying various icons. You’ll have to choose some of them, and depending on your choice, the final number of free spins and the coefficient will be defined. During the free spins, an additional wild symbol might appear on the middle reel.

How to Win the John Wayne Slot

The Return to Player rate in the John Wayne slot is 93.97%. Gamblers can get the highest payoffs during free spins. Thus, it is a good strategy to gradually increase the bet size until you get the bonus free spin round. In addition, impressive payoffs can also be obtained during the regular round thanks to the star icon.
