John Wayne

Play the John Wayne Slot Game for free

Get ready to set foot in the Wild West in this exciting slot from Playtech, one of the world leaders in online slot creation. The main star of this slot is pretty easy to pinpoint, as it’s the man who has starred in more Westerns than any other – Duke, AKA John Wayne. Despite the fact that Wayne’s films were made many moons ago, he still translates well to online slots though and fans of the famous actor will absolutely love every spin at this fun and exciting game. In fact, even those who have never seen a John Wayne movie in their life will enjoy spinning the reels at this slot.

So, what are the main features of this slot from Playtech? Well, the first thing to mention is that it has 25 different paylines, which is about average in the online slots world. This leads to loads of excitement, as there are many chances to spin in winning combinations. You’ll be hooked from the moment the slot starts loading, thanks to the great music playing in the background, and the fun features continue when the game loads, including a number of exciting bonuses – but more on those further down the page.

Graphics & Symbols

But what about the game’s looks? Well, as you can imagine, you’ll find John Wayne on the reels, in various different guises. You’ll also find a number of quintessentially Western items on the reels as well, such as cowboy hats and sheriff’s badges. It would have been nice if they’d not included a bunch of generic 10-A symbols though, and had instead thought up a few more unique symbols for the reels. Still, this doesn’t take away from the Wild West feel of the slot too much though.

It’s also important to mention that this slot is suitable for all levels of slot players. This is because the minimum stake per spin is just 0.01 coins, while the maximum bet is a massive 1,250 coins! It’s important to think about how much to bet before each spin, as larger amounts lead to larger potential wins, but you also don’t want to overstretch your finances when you play.

It should be mentioned that there is another slot that goes by the name of John Wayne, this time produced by WMS. While this is also a great slot, it doesn’t quite reach the levels of the Playtech offering though, so players should stick to the one being described in this review.

Bonus Features

Any good slot has to have some great bonus features, and this is certainly the case at John Wayne from Playtech. In fact, there are two bonus games for players to enjoy, plus wild symbols during the base game. These wild symbols can replace most other symbols on the reels to create nice winning combinations. While they are found at most slots, they seem to feature more in wins at John Wayne than elsewhere – so expect to see them quite a lot when you play! They are pretty easy to identify, as they have John Wayne walking with his dog, with a huge “WILD” emblazoned behind them.

The first of the main bonus games is triggered when landing three or more of the sheriff’s badge on the reels. This leads to a simple pick me style game, whereby you’ll need to choose one of the badges, revealing a prize. The more stars you spin in to activate the feature, the larger your prize will be. The most that can be won is 120x your total bet. It’s not the most exciting feature in the world, but it is certainly one that can provide some handsome prizes.

The other bonus on offer is far more exciting though, and it starts when you get the Bonus symbol anywhere on reels one, three and five. To start with, you’ll be awarded three free spins with a 1x multiplier, but you can increase these by shooting prizes. There are six different things you can win, and they are: more free spins, increased multipliers, more bullets, free games re-triggers, mystery extra wilds, and mystery extra scatters. Once you’ve run out of bullets, your free spins will start to play out.

It should be mentioned that you’re able to trigger the other feature while the free spins are active. This means that you could win even more money from the feature!

The other feature to talk about, although not really a bonus feature, is the amount of money that can be won when playing this slot. The jackpot is the figure that most people look at, and at John Wayne it is worth 5000x your bet per payline. It is won by getting five of the wild symbols on an active payline. More important than the bonus is the number of wins players experience while playing a slot though, and there’s good news for those playing John Wayne. This is because it regularly sees wins spinning into view. Most of them are on the small side, but these are important, as they keep you ticking over until the next big win spins into view.
