Advantages
- Cluster Pay
- Free Spins
- Buy feature
Disadvantages
- Only x973 max win
In Buster’s Bones slot free play, the Cluster Pays mechanism may be found on reels that are 6×6 in size. The slot machine may not pay out very much – up to 973 times the stake – but it is rather dangerous, and we say this based on the fact that its volatility level is between medium and high. With a return to player percentage of 96.07%, the chances are satisfactory. In return for a minimum stake of C$0.10, a spin will be initiated; however, you are free to spend anything from C$0.10 all the way up to C$200 on the same round.
The slot has a great design, but with the reputation that NetEnt has built for itself, we can’t expect anything else. The main characters in this game are dogs who take on the role of wild west cowboys. As a backdrop, we have the American wilderness, and the playing field is part of the wall of a seedy saloon, with the high-paying symbols being dogs. Each one is unique and kind of cute.
Features of Buster’s Bones Slot
- The gameplay focuses on the Cluster Pays engine, which requires players to build clusters of five or more identical symbols that are next to one another. An Avalanche will be triggered as soon as a cluster has been formed, and the symbols involved will be removed from the reels. Additional symbols will fall into those spots, which may result in the formation of more clusters and the continuation of the avalanche.
- It is possible to collect any Bone symbols that are in play at the same time whenever Buster makes an appearance. They are all transformed into additional Wilds, and the sum of their numbers also determines the kind of multiplier that will be applied to the wins that Buster is responsible for contributing to.
- A random modifier might put Buster and Bones together on the reels, giving players another chance at winning with this combination.
- The Free Spins round is the most important bonus feature, and in order to trigger it, you need to have at least one Buster symbol and two Scatters on the screen at the same time. After that, you are awarded eight Free Spins, during which Buster will apply a growing multiplier (collects Bone symbols to boost it).
- If you don’t want to, you may skip waiting for the 2 Scatters and 1 Buster to show up by themselves. Alternatively, if you’re willing to spend 60 times your wager, you’ll get immediate entry to the saloon and the Free Spins bonus round.

Our opinion
It seems to us that this maximum profit of only x973 does not correspond much with the level of volatility. It seems to us that when the game rarely gives big profits, it should be really big. What does make a nice impression is the extremely low purchase price of the Free Spins round, which is only 60 times the bet. At what percentage the Free Spins manage to deliver more than that profit is definitely worth investigating.
The base game, Buster’s Bones Slot, is interesting enough to keep your attention for a while. Most important, of course, is what payouts the game gives, and in our opinion, they are big enough to give it some time.
