Dead, Dead or Deader Slot Overview

Dead, Dead or Deader is a casino slot from Nolimit City, taking players on another gruesome journey through the ruthless Wild West, where the Grim Reaper has his hands full around the clock. Dressed in bleak graphics reflecting the unforgiving reality of those turbulent times, the game puts the 19th century's most popular capital punishment in the highlight. Similarly to a highly graphic release from 2022, Tombstone R.I.P., the sound of strained ropes, opening trapdoors, and snapping necks will accompany the gameplay led by xNudge Wilds and growing multipliers. It may sound scary, but if you've chosen the life of an outlaw, you must consider the consequences once a heist goes south. However, you can always sell your companion down the river if you're a heartless bastard and let him sway on the noose while you're enjoying the entire take of 19,347x the bet. The choice is all yours so let your conscience be the judge.

Dead, Dead or Deader Slot Information

The game's environment is everything but welcoming. We find ourselves before a blood-spattered page of paper spread on a dirty red background, with no eye-pleasing decorations in sight. A somber yet relatively lively soundtrack infuses the atmosphere with an uneasy vibe, heralding the grim upcoming events. The grid's area is divided by uneven black lines as if carelessly drawn with a piece of charcoal. Between them, symbols combine with the scarlet backdrop when they settle in their assigned positions. If at least 3 matching ones land on neighboring reels, starting from the leftmost one, a win will be awarded. Players can dive into the ruthless world of gunslingers from any modern device, be it a desktop, a smartphone, or a tablet.

Symbols in the paytable are split into two categories. The low-value group includes royal letter and numbers from 10 to A, awarding from 0.3x to 0.4x the bet for 5 in a combination. High-paying icons appear as black pictures of a pair of shackles, a moonshine jug, a sheriff star, a pair of revolvers, and an outlaw. Those pay from 0.75x to 1.2x the bet for matching 5 on a winning way. Alongside the regular symbols, there are Wilds represented by skulls, x Nudge Wilds in the form of a hanged cowboy, and Scatters depicting tombstones.

Wilds

Wilds can land on all five reels in any position. Counting from the leftmost reel, they will carry multipliers of x1, x2, x3, x4, and x5, respectively, depending which reel they land on. Wilds landing on the same column will have the same multipliers.

xNudge Wilds

A stacked xNudge Wild can land on reels 2, 3, and 4. Whenever it appears, it nudges to full visibility, awarding a global win multiplier increase by 1 for each step. Multipliers from several xNudge Wilds simultaneously will be added together. After the symbol completes its move, additional features may trigger.

The Hanging = the man on the symbol is hanged, awarding a respin with the xNudge Wild held in place.

The Deadlock = once the respin is over, the man's neck can be snapped again. This will double the multiplier and award another respin with the xNudge Wild remaining sticky.

The Dropout = the man on the symbol is hanged but instantly falls from the rope without awarding a respin. If this happens after a respin, the multiplier value reverts to the previous one and no further respins are awarded.

Scatters

Scatters are available only on reels 2 through 5. Landing 3 of them simultaneously activates the Dead Spins bonus, while landing 4 activates the Deader Spins bonus. If only 2 appear on the grid at the same time, they become Wilds with multipliers following the same logic as the standard Wild symbols.

Dead Spins

Players receive 12 free spins, during which xNudge Wilds always become sticky for at least one additional spin, with their multiplier doubled before the next spin starts. If a Scatter appears on the last reel, the bonus will be upgraded to Deader Spins, with 2 additional rounds added to the tally.

Deader Spins

The round also begins with 12 free spins if triggered from the base game. Identical rules apply as during the Dead Spins, although the multiplier on the xNudge Wild gets tripled instead of doubled.

Just Die Already

Upon reaching or exceeding the value of 19,349x the bet, the game round ends and marks achieving the maximum win of the game. It can also be awarded by landing a fully visible stacked Casket symbol on any reel. If it lands only partially, it acts as a blocker with no value.

Ante Bet

Players can make use of Nolimit Booster bets that increase the value of the base stake in exchange for improved spins.

1.5x = a spin with a guaranteed Scatter on the second reel.

7x = a spin with a guaranteed xNudge Wild on any of the 3 middle reels.

779x = a spin with guaranteed 3 xNudge Wilds.

Feature Buy

Dead, Dead or Deader offers several options for triggering features instantly for a set price.

99x = 12 Dead Spins

499x = 12 Deader Spins

299x = Lucky Draw with a 50% chance for either bonus.

Dead, Dead or Deader Slot Conclusion

Nolimit City has displayed its unique grim graphic style in numerous gritty releases before, like in Deadwood R.I.P. or Remember Gulag, but Dead Dead or Deader feels like the ultimate washed-out environment aiming to fill the players' hearts with misery and sorrow. And if the design alone doesn't make much of an impression on you, there's an explicit depiction of hanging the poor gunslinger on the xNudge Wild symbol. To counter the balance of the overall melancholy, the producers added a bit of their twisted dark humor on the big-win presentations, where one outlaw gets continually shot by the other while spewing some funny dialog. Still, the game is as far from being an eye candy as possible, with its limited color palette and lack of flashy embellishments. Of course, it doesn't mean that it lacks anything in the quality department. We fully realize that this is not a result of carelessness and rushed decisions but rather meticulous planning to deliver the scene in the exact mood as the producers imagined it.

Once we peek into the game's technical profile, it quickly proves that it's one of Nolimit City's more straightforward setups, relying almost exclusively on Wilds and xNudge Wilds. It's hard to blame producers for such a decision, given the feature proved so successful numerous times before, starting with the release of the first Tombstone in 2019. This time, the doubling or tripling multipliers empower the stacked symbols even further and respins occasionally offer a welcome extension of the round. Just like the visuals, the gameplay feels quite raw and unforgiving, and yet presents a clear win potential that may lead to the top prize of 19,349x the bet, even by landing a single Casket symbol in the base game. The probability of that happening at an average of 1 in 802,000 spins is not too shabby either.

Dead, Dead or Deader brings along rough gameplay combined with equally crude visuals to create a solid composition based on time-tested features.
