The call of the West… that’s the idea behind this theme but we have more to discover yet as we progress through our review for this slot game. Western Call is certainly calling to us, so can we find out whether this is an appealing slot to try? Does it offer superb prizes? Let’s find out more about it.
Developer details to start things off
It’s always sensible to find out which developer created a specific game, as that alone can tell us much about it. In this case, we can thank the team at Arrows Edge for developing the slot.
It does include a demo version
It looks cool too, as we’ll find out shortly. We merely want to say that trying a game before you pay for your spins is always a smart idea if you can do it.
What’s the theme?
The theme here is the West, as seen and experienced through the eyes of various animals. It soon becomes obvious the West in question is the American West, with plenty of charming animals in action in the rocky background.
Blessed with a charming design
The feel of this game is a real Arrows Edge experience – and that is a good thing for sure. Aside from that, you can expect sharper graphics than ever. The animals are nicely designed and have a cartoon feel. They also move occasionally.
Getting to grips with the Western Call slot game
Okay, so you’re ready to play the game and discover just what might happen on those reels. There are five of them in action, with three symbols appearing on each one. The wild is a bison with flashing green eyes, labeled as a wild, and landing on all reels. It replaces everything apart from the bonus symbol. That one is shown as a grinning wolf, and it’s labeled as a bonus too.
Arrows Edge is well known for three jackpots, and we have two of them here – the Cash Grab jackpot and the Mystery Jackpot. You can see the value of each above the reels.
How many paylines does this game have?
There are 28 – an unusual number, but you can adjust the quantity to play fewer lines if you wish. Just remember that if you do this, you’ll forego any prizes landing on un-played lines.
Betting range
Arrows Edge always gives players a significant betting range to work with. For example, we have the smallest bet of 28 cents to cover all the lines, i.e., a cent per line. If you go to the top of the scale, you can wager $252 per spin.
An easy to find paytable
Yes, it is hiding behind the question mark, as always, offering quick access to the information you need to read before you play the game.
Playing the bonus Wild Animal Feature
Find a bonus wolf on each of the middle three reels and this round begins. You’ll see several wild animals on the screen, and you are invited to choose one. This could result in receiving an instant prize. Conversely, you may receive either some re-spins or free spins, which we’ll look at below.
Free spins and re-spins in Western Call
So, what happens if the re-spins prize comes your way? Well, you’ll receive five free re-spins of the reels. The animal you chose to reveal that prize will be an extra wild throughout those spins.
If you end up with the free spins, you’ll receive 15 of those. Once again, the triggering animal turns into another wild symbol throughout those spins. There are no multipliers involved either in the freebies or the re-spins.
RTP details
We have no information on this percentage for the game just yet. Rest assured we will update our review should that info become available.
Our rating for Western Call slots
This is a superb game. It plays at a nice speed and we liked the animations on winning combinations. Those wilds come in useful, and it is great to have another wild joining the regular one if you reach the free games or re-spins. There is plenty here to warrant a score of 8/10.
How much could you win?
We know there are two progressives here, but we also know the odds of bringing home one of those are not in our favor. The top paytable prize is worth 1,000x your line bet if you can find five wild symbols on the same paid line. This could mean the standard wild or any animal wild you see in the re-spins or free spins.
Play the demo to hear that Western Call today
The game has plenty of appeal and it’s reassuring to see that we can try it before committing a portion of our budget to the real thing. We’re tempted to do just that though!
Are you going to play for real?
If you like the demo and you like the smallest bet worth 28 cents per play, this game sure does have a lot of appeal.
It’s great on mobile platforms too
Yep, it is, and you can certainly make the most of playing it on Android or iOS if you don’t want to play at your computer. Take the Western Call experience with you wherever you go.
