All the advantages of a classic video slot

Wild Wild Symbols

Dead or Alive consists of 5 reels, 3 rows and 9 pay lines, which are counted from left to right. Combinations consist of classic symbols, premium symbols, a wild symbol and a scatter symbol. The playing cards represent classic symbols. These are the symbols that appear the most frequently, but they are also the ones that yield the least. They multiply your bet as follows:

Symbol	Set of 3	Set of 4	Set of 5
10	2 x your stake	10 x your stake	25 x your stake
Jack (J)	2 x your stake	10 x your stake	40 x your stake
Queen (Q)	4 x your stake	12 x your stake	50 x your stake
King (K)	5 x your stake	15 x your stake	75 x your stake
Ace (A)	10 x your stake	20 x your stake	100 x your stake

The rewards obtained with the premium symbols are more interesting. These symbols are specific to Dead or Alive and fit perfectly with the Wild West theme of the slot game. When you get 3 or more on a payline, your bet is multiplied as follows:

Symbol	Set of 3	Set of 4	Set of 5
Whiskey Glasses	10 x your stake	50 x your stake	200 x your stake
Cowboy Boots	12 x your stake	60 x your stake	300 x your stake
Cowboy Hat	15 x your stake	75 x your stake	400 x your stake
Revolver Holster	20 x your stake	100 x your stake	750 x your stake
Sheriff Badge	20 x your stake	125 x your stake	1000 x your stake

Dead or Alive also has a wild symbol represented by the "Wanted" Poster. This symbol is a wild card and replaces any other symbol to create a winning combination, with the exception of the scatter symbol which we will discuss below. Another advantage of the Wild symbol is that if you line up 5 in a payline, you get 1500x your stake!

Bonuses and Free Spins

The Scatter symbol is represented by two crossed revolvers and allows the free spins bonus to be triggered when at least 3 of them appear on the reels. Twelve free spins are then offered to you, and the winnings obtained during these spins are doubled! In addition, the Wild symbols become “sticky” for the duration of the free spins, meaning that they remain in place from one turn to the next, giving you the opportunity to create even more winning combinations. And that's not all: the first time a Wild symbol appears, you get 5 additional free spins. 

Take part in the gold rush

As we have already mentioned, the Dead or Alive slot machine transports you to the fascinating world of the American West. This is your opportunity to become the Sheriff and impose your law! Although this game dates from 2009, the graphics are of high quality and the attention to detail is remarkable, right down to the woodwork that surrounds the game screen and is reminiscent of the buildings of the Gold Rush. The sound effects and the animations give the impression that a storm is approaching and reinforce the feeling of total immersion. 

Despite longevity of more than 10 years, Dead or Alive is still among the most popular slot machines, and this is not surprising! A simple and clear game mode, enticing bonuses and a captivating atmosphere: what more could you ask for? And for even more immersion in the Wild West, do not hesitate to try Dead or Alive 2, released in 2019!
