Cowboy Coins Slot RTP, Details & Wager Limits

The Cowboy Coins slot is played with 6 reels, 3-4 rows and 2,304 ways to win. Reels 1 and 6 have 3 rows with reels 2-5 have 4 each (3 x 4 x 4 x 4 x 4 x 3 = 2,304). Landing 3, 4, 5 or 6 matching symbols across adjacent reels, starting from reel 1, will form a winning combination.

Bet options vary between 20p and £100 a spin. As with all Pragmatic Play slot games, click/press the plus and/or minus buttons which appear either side of the main ‘Spin’ button. Non UK players can opt for the Autoplay function where you can choose up to 1,000 autospins. Furthermore, there are Quick/Turbo Spin modes for quicker spins (again, not available in the UK).

The Cowboy Coins RTP is 96.08% which is marginally higher than the 96% online slots average. Pragmatic Play also offer 95.06% and 94.12% RTP versions which may be used at even the best online casinos in the UK. To find out which RTP you’re playing with, open the Paytable from within the Cowboy Coins slot game.

Cowboy Coins comes with a 21.7% hit frequency rate meaning a win every 4.6 spins on average. Triggering the Free Respins feature will take approximately 284 spins.

Highly volatile (5/5), big wins can land in a short time span but will be hard to achieve. When it comes to payouts, Cowboy Coins offers you 30,000 x bet max wins. The big wins will undoubtedly come in the Free Respin feature. It will occur once every 10,425,449 spins with wins of 1,000 x bet or higher occurring every 150,954 spins.

Theme – collect bounties in the Wild West

With a Western theme, the Cowboy Coins slot takes you on a quest to collect bounties in the Wild West. Based on cowboys, its set in a typical dusty frontier town like the one you see in the Quentin Tarantino-produced Django Unchained film. With clear visuals and big/colourful symbols, the Western soundtrack has a rock feel to it as it’s been created using guitars.

On the reels, symbols include Western styled A, K, Q, J and 10 royals. Higher value symbols include a hand of cards (displaying a Royal Flush), pistols, cowgirls, cowboys and sheriffs. The Sheriff is the best paying symbol with 2, 4, 6.25 or 10 x bet awarded for 3, 4, 5 or 6 in combination.

Unusually in Cowboy Coins, there is no wild symbol to substitute for paying symbols. There are, however, 2 Pistols Scatters and 2 Sheriff Badge Money symbols. In the main bonus feature, there’s a whole host of special symbols (more details below).

Cowboy Coins Mobile

Released on the 13^th of February 2023, Cowboy Coins has been created using HTML5 technology. This means it’s available to play on mobile, laptop, PC and/or tablet devices. The 5×3 setup works well on all mobile devices, including those operating with iOS, Android and Windows.

Cowboy Coins Bonus Features

The Cowboy Coins slot comes with 3 bonus features. Money and special symbols can land on the base game to pay cash prizes. It’s all about the Free Respin feature where you aim to land Money symbols on the middle reels and special symbols on the outer reels. This can lead to 30,000 x bet max wins.

Money and Special Symbols feature

Look out for the 2 Sheriff Badge Money symbols: gold and silver. Appearing on reels 2, 3, 4 and/or 5, money symbols have a random value between 1 and 10 x your total bet. Payer symbols land only on reel 1 and are worth up to 10 x bet.

When a Payer symbol lands on reel 1, its value is added to any money symbols on the reels. If a Collector symbol lands on reel 6 with Money symbols on the reels, its value plus money symbol combined values are won. This is known as the Money and Special Symbols feature.

Free Respin feature

The Free Respin feature is triggered when 3 or more 2 Pistols Scatter symbols land anywhere on a base game spin. With 3 respins awarded, only money or special symbols can land will land.

Money symbols will appear on the middle reels and are worth up to 50 x bet. Special symbols land on the outer reels. If any symbol lands, the number of respins resets to 3. A typical respins feature, here are the special symbols you will encounter:

Special Symbol	Description
Payer	Appearing on the left reel, Payer symbols add their values to the Money symbols on the grid.
Super Payer	Also appearing on the leftmost reel, it acts like the Payer symbol but values are added on each respin.
Multi Collector	Appearing on the top reel, its value plus the value of a random Money symbol is awarded between 2 and 30 times.
Super Multi Collector	Also appearing on the top reel, it works like the Multi Collector but it occurs on every respin.
Collector	Appearing on the right reel, it pays its value plus the value of all Money symbols.
Super Collector	Like the Collector, this occurs on every respin.
Double Booster	Appearing on the bottom reel, it randomly chooses 2-5 random Money symbols and doubles their values. The difference from the original values is then awarded.
Super Double Booster	This works the same as the Double Booster but it occurs on every respin.

When 1 of the edge reels is filled with special symbols, 1 extra position is added to that reel (just 1 time). If you fill the screen with symbols entirely, the feature will end. Furthermore, a number of Money symbols will appear on the main reels. This is equal to the number of triggering 2 Pistols Scatters.

Money symbols will appear on the middle reels with special symbols landing on the outer reels. If any symbol lands, the number of respins resets to 3. A typical respins feature, here are the special symbols you will encounter:

Buy Free Respins feature

Players outside the UK can enable the Buy Free Respins feature. You have the choice of 5 options. They include access to the Free Respin feature as well as different versions involving special symbols. With the RTP changing for each option, here are all the details:

Cowboy Coins Review Summary – watered-down version of Relax Gaming’s Money Train 3 slot

The Cowboy Coins slot is Pragmatic Play’s answer to other popular respins slots such as Money Train 3 (Relax Gaming) and Fire in the Hole (Nolimit City). Respins features have become increasingly popular and for good reason.

Graphically though, Cowboy Coins is good but it quite typical of a slot game with this theme. To stand out amongst the vast amount of Wild West themed slots is hard so Pragmatic Play needed to up and ante quite a bit in my opinion.

In terms of the gameplay, I do like the fact you can win cash prizes from Money, Payer and Collector symbols but expect these to be low most of the time. However, it’s all about the Free Respin feature where you’ll come across reels around the main reels which display special symbols. The Super special symbols will generate the biggest wins though as their functions apply on every respin. I do like the way the feature displays as it’s clear what each special symbol does and affects the Money symbols.

With 30,000 x bet max wins, the Cowboy Coins slot can dish out some big wins. However, competing in terms of respins and payouts, it falls a little short. Money Train 3 and Fire in the Hole in comparison offer 100,000 and 60,000 x bet payouts respectively. On the Wild West front, Tombstone RIP and Dead or Alive 2 come with 200,000 and 111,111.11 x bet top wins.

Overall, Cowboy Coins is a good Pragmatic Play slot game. Aesthetically good with big win potential, this Wild West draw is one to try if you like respins. For something a little different, Pragmatic’s The Dog House Multihold is recommended. It comes with up to 4 reel sets in the free spins.
