Le Cowboy™ Slot

Le Cowboy™ Slot RTP, Details & Wager Limits

Le Cowboy™ is a Cluster Pays slot with a 6×5 grid configuration. Winners are created by connecting 5 or more matching symbols vertically or horizontally. After every win, the winning symbols are removed from the reels and new ones drop into vacant positions—like most Megaways slots.

Enter the dusty American town with as little as 5p up to £40 per spin (up to £5 in the UK), a bit tighter than Hacksaw Gaming’s usual range. There are also autoplay and turbo modes for players outside the UK.
The Le Cowboy™ RTP is 96.28%, a touch above average. However, it can drop as low as 86.33% at some online casinos, so shop around for the highest paying version. Scoring 3 out of 5, the volatility falls in the medium range.

What’s even better is the massive Le Cowboy™ max win of 25,000x the bet, which is available in every game mode. It will certainly rival some of the best real money slots in the provider’s catalogue.

Le Cowboy™ Theme—Meet Smokey, the New Sheriff in Town

Our moustached raccoon buddy, Smokey, has cosplayed several characters in the past, like Zeus in Le Zeus™, a Viking in Le Viking™, and a King in Le King™. As you must have clocked from the trend, here, he’s in his cowboy era, donning a hat and boots as a Sheriff, and takes a position beside the grid as usual.

The game has a Wild West setting, unfolding in a small dusty town where Smokey faffs around with his revolver in hand. The design maintains the lighthearted vibe of the previous online slots in the “Le” series, and in my opinion, it is the most appealing yet.

The playful banjo soundtrack works nicely for the theme. I didn’t get repetitive during my playtest at Le Cowboy™ casinos. Here’s what the paytable looks like:

Symbol	Payouts/Info
10	5 to 14+ = 0.2 to 50x the stake
J	5 to 14+ = 0.2 to 50x the stake
Q	5 to 14+ = 0.2 to 50x the stake
K	5 to 14+ = 0.2 to 50x the stake
A	5 to 14+ = 0.2 to 50x the stake
Hat	5 to 14+ = 0.4 to 75x the stake
Cactus	5 to 14+ = 0.4 to 75x the stake
Revolvers	5 to 14+ = 0.6 to 100x the stake
Skull	5 to 14+ = 0.6 to 100x the stake
Badge	5 to 14+ = 1 to 200x the stake
Wild | Wanted Poster	Substitutes for all regular paying symbols
Scatter	3+ triggers a bonus round

Le Cowboy™ Mobile Slot

I tried the Le Cowboy™ mobile slot on smartphones and tablets, and it ran smoothly each time. The solid 6×5 grid adapts nicely to smaller screens on mobile casinos, and even Smokey fits right in without looking out of place.

As with many free slots, the Le Cowboy™ demo felt a little cramped when I played in portrait mode. The grid appears bolder, but it ends up obscuring the view of the dusty street and saloon door in the background.

Le Cowboy™ Bonus Features

The Le Cowboy™ slot game treads on the path of its prequels by offering 3 bonus rounds and a new Revolver Reveal feature. There’s also a Bonus Buy option.

Revolver Reveals

When a wild is a part of a winning cluster, it transforms into a Revolver Cylinder symbol, which is activated after all subsequent cascades. The Revolver Cylinder has 2–6 shots, and each shot fires at random symbols on the reels. Note that a spot can be hit multiple times.

The fired symbols are transformed into Coin, Diamond, Clover, Loot Bag, or Reload symbols.

Reload Symbol

If the fired symbol displays a Reload symbol, the Revolver Cylinder would be again loaded with 2–6 shots, repeating the process. Coins hit upgrade to the next tier, and Green Clover upgrades to Gold.

Coin and Diamond Symbols

After Revolver Cylinder unloads its shots and there isn’t another Reload symbol in view, the transformed Coins and Diamonds will reveal their values:

• Bronze Coins: 1x–4x the bet
• Silver Coins: 5x–20x the bet
• Gold Coins: 25x–100x the bet
• Diamonds: 150x–100x the bet

Green and Gold Clover Symbols

The Clover symbols will activate once the Coin and Diamond symbols have revealed their values. They are basically multipliers with values between 2x and 20x, but they apply to symbols differently:

• Green Clover: The multiplier applies to all Coins, Diamonds, or Loot Bag symbols on adjacent squares to it
• Gold Clover: The multiplier applies to all Coins, Diamonds, or Loot Bag symbols on the reels
  Loot Bag

After the Clover symbols have applied their multipliers, the Loot Bag symbol is activated. It collects all the values of Coins and Diamonds, as well as other activated Loot Bags, and sums them up.

In addition, once the last Loot Bag has been activated, all shot positions are reactivated, revealing new symbols, and the reveal process repeats. Lastly, after all reveals and activations, all Coin and Loot Bag values are added and awarded.

Bonus Game

As with many new online slots, landing at least 3 scatters triggers the bonus round. Here, there are 3 bonus rounds, depending on the number of scatters in the triggering spin. Each of the bonus games awards 10 free spins and an extra 2 or 4 spins whenever 2 or 3 scatters land, respectively.

However, the scatter symbol can’t appear during the Pistol at Dawn bonus, so free spins cannot be retriggered.

High Noon Saloon

Trigger this bonus round by landing 3 scatters in the base game. At the start of the round, you get to choose to either gamble or go straight into the action. The High Noon Saloon bonus maintains the base game’s mechanics with better chances of hitting Revolver Cylinders.

Opting to gamble will activate one of the following outcomes:

• #1 Upgrades the round to the Trail of Trickery bonus game. You’ll also get the chance to gamble
• #2 Awards a cash prize of 1x–4x the bet
• #3 Awards a cash prize of 5x–20x the bet
• #4 Awards a cash prize of 25x–100x the bet

The bonus round ends after the outcome is awarded.

Trail of Trickery

In the Trail of Trickery bonus, you also have the chance to either gamble or spin the reels. A Bullet Collector is positioned outside the grid, and each winning cluster adds 1 bullet to it. On the last free spin, Smokey will fire all the collected bullets, and the hit positions will reveal Coin, Diamond, Clover, or Loot Bag symbols.

If you choose to gamble instead, you’ll receive 1 of the following outcomes:

• #1: Upgrades to Pistol at Dawn bonus round
• # 2 & 3: Award an instant cash prize of 5x–20x the bet
• # 4, 5, 6 & 7: Award instant cash prize of 25x–100x the bet
• # 8: Awards an instant cash prize of 150x–500x the bet

Pistols at Dawn

Unlike the other bonus rounds, this one doesn’t have a gamble option. So you’ll move directly into free spins. It maintains the mechanics of the Trail of Trickery, and in addition, the Bullet Collector is progressive. It starts at 5 and triggers on every free spin. Revolver Cylinders and Reload symbols have been activated.

After all the bullets in the collector have been shot, it resets to its last collected value before it was activated. Furthermore, Silver Coins are the lowest type of Coin that will be revealed during this bonus round.

Buy Bonus (Unavailable in the UK)

Activate any of the following Buy Bonus options to enhance your play for a fee:

• BonusHunt FeatureSpins™ (3x the bet): 5x more likely to trigger a bonus game
• Wild West FeatureSpins™ (75x the bet): Guarantees that at least 2 Wild symbols appear
• High Noon Saloon (65x the bet): Triggers the High Noon Saloon bonus game
• Trail of Trickery (250x the bet): Triggers the Trail of Trickery bonus game

Play Le Cowboy™

Le Cowboy™ Slot

Le Cowboy™ takes Smokey to the dusty grounds of the Wild Wild, delivering another solid addition to the “Le” series with a new all-time high potential payout.

Pros

• Eye-catching visuals with amusing characters
• Max win of 25,000x in all game modes
• Interesting gameplay
• Packed with bonus features
• Offers 3 bonus rounds

Cons

• Bonus features might be a bit complex for newbies
• High rollers might find the £40 max bet low

We can say that Hacksaw Gaming has cracked the code to keep the core reveal feature fresh across all of its “Le” releases. While the coins and clovers still reveal the same cash and multiplier values, the way they’re triggered in Le Cowboy™ is distinct.

Instead of Gold Squares, we get a more straightforward Revolver feature, where Smokey shoots at random symbols, transforming them into special symbols. Moreover, the max win for this Wild West adventure is 25,000x the bet, the highest so far in the charming series.
