Duel of the Dead Megaways Slot Information

We have ended up in a deserted Western town. To the left of the reels are a few buildings but no people, just some tumbleweed rolling by and a bird flying through now and then. To the right of the reels stands a church that looks like it has been burning. The six reels can have anywhere between 2 and 7 symbols on each spin, except the last one, which always has 4 positions and a locked iron door with a black-dressed man in the bottom. That’s where Deadeye Bob can appear in the Duel feature.

The setup gives the player a maximum of 84035 ways to win, instead of the usual 117649 ways in Megaways slots. The reels have a black frame, and the lower-paying symbols have a dark-gray background. To make a win, you need to land at least 3 of the same symbol on adjacent reels, starting on the first reel to the left. You can play Duel of the Dead Megaways on mobile phones and other devices.

The lower-paying symbols are the royals 10, J, Q, K, and A. They will give you between 0.8X and 1X the bet for a 6-of-a-kind win. The higher-paying symbols are three women and two men, some very similar to the actors of Django Unchained. The Kerry Washington look-alike, another woman, and two fellas who share features with Jamie Foxx and Leonardo DiCaprio pay between 2X and 3X the bet for a win containing 6 symbols. The sheriff, who only appears on reel 1, pays 10X the bet for a 6-of-a-kind win. The Wild Symbol substitutes all symbols except the Scatter Symbol.

What features are available in the slot Duel of the Dead Megaways?

The features are Wild Symbol, Zombies Go Wild, Duel, Free Spins, and Bonus Buy.

Wild Symbol

The Wild Symbol is a zombie hand doing thumbs-up or another sign. It can only appear on reels 2, 3, 4, and 5 in the Zombies Go Wild and Duel features. The Wild Symbol substitutes all symbols except the Scatter Symbol.

Zombies Go Wild

The Zombies Go Wild feature is triggered whenever the Sheriff Symbol lands on the first reel, which is the only reel she can appear on. All symbols on reels 2-5, except Scatter Symbols, are transformed into zombies for a while, and the sheriff starts shooting at them. If a zombie is hit, it gets a 1X multiplier, and every hit after that increases that zombie’s multiplier by 1.

When the sheriff stops blasting, all multiplier zombies turn into Wild Symbols with their respective multipliers while the rest of the zombies go back to the symbol they were before. The feature can trigger in the base game and free spins.

Duel

Deadeye Bob can randomly break out of his cage on the sixth reel during the Zombies Go Wild feature and trigger the Duel feature. Each time the sheriff hits him with a shot, up to 3 multipliers are added to random zombies. The Duel continues until Deadeye Bob hits the sheriff with a bullet. The Duel can trigger within and outside of the free spins.

Free Spins

Landing 3 Scatter Symbols, depicted by sheriff stars saying “bonus,” triggers the free spins. Each Scatter that lands during the feature triggers an extra spin. If the Zombies Go Wild feature is activated, there’s a guaranteed bullets counter telling you the minimum number of bullets the sheriff will shoot. If more Wilds are added than the number of the counter, the counter will be upgraded with the new number and saved for the rest of the feature, or until even more Wilds are added, and the number is upgraded again.

The Free Spins finish when the player runs out of spins.

Bonus Buy

You can buy 5 free spins for 77X the bet. If you want to spice up the feature even more, you can pay 98X the bet for 5 free spins, which guarantees to trigger the Zombies Go Wild, and maybe the Duel. If you want to be guaranteed that the Duel will be triggered, you have to pay 183X the bet. 

Duel of the Dead Megaways Slot Conclusion

Duel of the Dead Megaways is definitely something different from the regular casino slot. We have seen shootouts before in games such as Wild West Duels, Wild Duel, and Wanted Dead or a Wild, but none of them have characters on each side of the reels shooting at each other. Zombies Go Wild is a cool feature that can trigger in both base game and free spins as soon as the best-paying symbol, the sheriff, turns up. She brings her shotgun and starts blasting toward all the symbols on reels 2-5 that have been transformed into zombies. Every zombie she hits will turn into a Wild when she’s done, and hitting a zombie twice or more will give it a multiplier.

When the Zombies Go Wild is over, there’s a chance that Deadeye Bob will break free, and the sheriff will continue to shoot, creating more Wilds and multipliers until Deadeye Bob hits her. The mean zombie can also turn up in the free spins, giving you some really sweet wins.

We can’t be the only ones thinking of Leonardo DiCaprio and Jamie Foxx when we see the characters in this game. The question is if the game developer has gotten inspiration from the Tarantino film or if it’s totally coincidental. Anyhow, the symbols look good and suit the game’s theme. The RTP of 96.22% is also considered good, although not amazing. Landing the game’s max win of 20000X the bet would be pretty amazing, though.

Duel of the Dead Megaways from Kalamba Games has a sheriff shooting zombies with a shotgun, turning them into Wild Symbols.
