Cowboy Coins Slot by Pragmatic Play 🎰 Free Demo and Review

Cowboy Coins Review

Imagine all the heavy-hitters in the Wild West slot genre in the same saloon, and in walks Cowboy Coins. Eyes are squinting, and there is tension and violence in the air. A newcomer in this genre will always be measured against what has come before is the point we’re trying to make, and Pragmatic Play’s effort is solid stuff for the most part. It’s heavily inspired by the Money Train series, and the visual presentation is a tad too generic to really stick out.

The good news is that you get a Money Collect feature also in the base game, and it even comes with the possibility of a Payer special symbol to boost the win. The main attraction is the Money Train inspired Free Respins round, and it comes with 4 special symbols along with 4 persistent super versions of each special symbol. The 30,000x potential makes this a solid gunslinger for sure, but it’s not quite up there with the top dogs.

Cowboy Coins Slot Features

The premium symbols pay between 3 and 10 x your stake for 6 of a kind wins, with one cowgirl and 2 cowboys as the top-tier symbols. There are no wild symbols in this game, and you win from the leftmost reel to the right. Money Symbols appear on reels 2, 3, 4, and 5 only, and they come with cash prize values between 1x and 10x your stake.

Payer symbols appear on reel 1 only, and it too comes with values between 1x and 10x your stake. The Payer adds its own value to all Money Symbols in view, and you win the Payer value plus the total Money Symbols prizes when this happens. Alternatively, you can land the Collector symbol to collect all Money Symbol prizes in view, and its own value is also part of the total win.

The Free Respins feature triggers from 3+ scatters in view, and you start with 3 respins and the same amount of sticky money symbols as you got triggering scatters. You will land only blanks, money symbols, or special symbols during the feature, and the main grid lands only money symbols or blanks.

The special symbols appear on special reels bolted on around the main grid, and all non-blank symbols become sticky in place when they land. This resets the respins tally to 3 each time, and here is an overview of the special symbols:

• Payer - add their value to regular money symbols.
• Super Payer - does the same persistently on every respin.
• Multi Collector - pay their own value, plus a randomly chosen money symbol value.
• Super Multi Collector - does the same persistently on every respin.
• Collector - pay their own value, plus the value of all present money symbols.
• Super Collector - does the same persistently on each respin.
• Double Booster - doubles the value of 2 to 5 randomly chosen money symbols.
• Super Double Booster - does the same persistently on every respin.

When you fill all the extra special reels with sticky special symbols, you get one extra position that opens up.

The Bonus Buy feature is available in some jurisdictions, but not in the UK for sure. If eligible, you can pay 100x the stake for the regular Respins Bonus. You can also pay 500x your stake to be guaranteed the super version of your chosen special symbols after the first respin. The bonus buy RTP ranges from 95.99 to 96.27 %, and you can check the details in the paytable info section of the game.

You get a relatively brief taste of the base game, before we purchase the Super Payer Respins round at 0:50 into the 3:22-minute highlights video. The feature plays out for the remainder of the video, and you can check it all out for yourself by hitting the play button below.

Review Summary

We like that you get a taste of the modifier symbols also in the base game, and the money collect feature does break up the grind in a somewhat entertaining way. It’s seldom super lucrative in the main game, of course, but that is hardly something you can expect. It’s there to provide a teaser for what’s to come, and the visual presentation is typical Pragmatic Play stuff. A tad too generic, perhaps, but still overall solid enough to get the job done.

The Money Train inspired Respins round is certainly the big highlight of this release, and we like how the “5th wall” is shattered in a hail of bullets in both the intro and the outro. The special modifier symbols can certainly make a dent, and not least their persistent super alter egos, and we have no complaints about the solid 30,000x potential. The 1 in 10,425,449 spins hit rate is pretty decent as well, and with a less generic presentation this would be up there with the best of them. It’s still a solid Wild West effort for sure, and well worth a closer look.
