Blaze a trail to the wild west in the latest release from Silverback Gaming

Quickly following September’s release of Golden Calaveras, Silverback Gaming is pleased to announce the launch of its second game since the acquisition by GAN, Wilds of The West.

This 4-line, 6-reel slot boasts 4096 ways to win as well as a multitude of game mechanics including Locked Wilds, Gamble Win and Free Spins. The Sheriff’s badge symbol is Wild and sticky in both the base game and the Free Spins round. In the base game, Wilds are Locked in place for between 3 and 5 consecutive spins, whereas in Free Spins they are sticky for the remainder of the feature.

All wins in the base game can also be moved into the Gamble Win feature, giving players the option to either take a 50/50 to double their win in a classic Red or Black card feature, or to take their chances with the Bonus Wheel, gambling their win for a chance to enter the Free Spins round. The bigger the base win, the higher the chance of winning the Bonus Wheel feature.

Landing three or more Gold Wagon scatter symbols triggers 10 Free Spins with any Wilds in that base spin being carried through into the bonus feature. These and all subsequent wilds that land during the Free Spins game are locked until the end of the round, leading to huge winning possibilities. Also, landing any further scatter symbols during Free Spins triggers additional spins, with each scatter awarding 2 additional spins.

The game is licensed in 11 jurisdictions and available in 29 languages, so in the territories that allow it, there is also a configurable Buy Bonus button.

Raphael Di Guisto, Founder at Silverback Gaming, said: “We’re so excited to bring another great, feature-laden game to market so quickly after our last launch. Wilds of The West has some amazing, sticky features which we’re sure will lead to some great wins.

“Everyone loves a sticky Wild, so we made the brave decision to make all Wilds sticky, even in the base game, for at least 3 spins. In the bonus game this can lead to whole walls of Wilds and massive wins up to our simulated max win of 5000x.

The launch enhances Push’s relationship with Kaizen Gaming, which has already seen success with its award-winning content in Greece, Denmark, and Brazil.

Agreements with over 15 direct integration partners have been achieved in 2024, and the supplier’s significant growth will be bolstered by several more announcements in the remainder of Q4.

Fiona Hickey, Chief Business Development Officer at Push Gaming, said: “Bulgaria is a territory we’ve been working on for some time, so it’s particularly pleasing to launch there with such an established and respected name as Betano.

“We know the strength of our product, and allied with Kaizen Gaming’s prominent positioning across regulated markets, we can make the most of our regional entries. They’re a fantastic strategic partner to work alongside, which breeds exceptional confidence that every launch period will perform strongly.”

Evangelos Dedoulis, Director of Product, Gaming and Rewards at Kaizen Gaming,  added: “Push Gaming is responsible for some of the finest games on the market, and as such, we have been eagerly anticipating bringing them to our Betano platform in Bulgaria too. In other markets where we have integrated Push Gaming’s titles, the reception from our audience has been exceptional, and we expect the same in this case too.”
