The Good, the Bad, and The Ugly slot is obviously inspired by Sergio Leone’s 1966 masterpiece, combined with Morricone’s brilliant musical piece. It is an ‘on reels’ version of the extended Western epic, presenting the adventures of three gunslingers in pursuit of stolen gold.

Detailed review about The Good, The Bad and The Ugly Slot

The Good, The Bad and The UglyGluck Games Studio published their 2020’s creation on Microgaming’s platform, intending to entice the gambling enthusiasts who are fans of American westerns, recognizing the genius of the ‘spaghetti’ trilogy, and who, above all, as the main characters of the movie/game looking for their ‘golden’ score.

In the game, there is a reference to the Union prison camp – from the movie (Wilds behind bars – Sticky Wilds), there is the dust hovering above the west town after the bridge is blown- also from the movie. You can see the developers – completely immersed by the superb atmosphere of Wild West trying to enliven the Sad Hill cemetery hopelessness and despair into the slot.

Technically this is a game with a standard 5×3 playing field, across 10 pay lines, with Medium Volatility and 95% RTP, built with the maximum prospect of 100 000 CAD (calculated as 5000x the total bet via max stake), offering multi-choice Free Spins and great respect to the unforgettable film soundtrack.

Personal testers’ opinion about The Good, The Bad and The Ugly slot

  • The pictures are crisp, the sound is just perfect, exactly like the previous release – the Psycho Candies slot (2020) from this German-based studio. The slot is very well done design/artistic-wise, with smooth gameplay. And yet, the game is semi-popular (perhaps because of the low RTP). Nowadays, only Progressive Jackpot slots have an RTP below 96%.
  • Paytable-wise: Scatters (skull/snake knot) don’t pay, only trigger the bonus round, but 5 different (faces) Wilds pay 50x the total bet for 5OAK. They, however, do not double the payouts when they substitute on any win line. The regular 10 symbols pay from 50x (for the chest) to 3x (for the 10 cards), all total bet for 5OAK on a pay line. This is just one average – ‘not good, and not so bad’ provision, but considering the small number of pay lines, you can imagine the game won’t pay large amounts on a regular basis.
  • Gameplay-wise: Besides the poor return, other reasons for disfavoring The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly slot could be the insufficient hit frequency (only a little above 20%), missing re-triggers for some of the Free Spins options or multipliers in the base game. In fact, there is not much happening during the main spins. There is no buffer function to help you to recover from the empty spins, and your balance slowly goes to bust. The only chance for good cash is in the Free Spins. And thank god, they do come often.
  • The 3 choices you are given before the Free Spins start are simple to comprehend, but only 2 of them are attractive (The Good and The Bad options). At the same time, the 3rd one (The Ugly) is just an instant cashout (up to 100x the current stake), so nothing much to anticipate there. Now the 2 engaging modes are thrilling, and although hard to provide in practicality some super huge prize, it is still possible (5000x the total bet – the developers announced).
  • Our team secured a juicy 555x the total bet top win in the Free Spins (The Good – mode) via 10 CAD stake, but that was exceptional. Unfortunately, the bonus rounds (all 3 modes summed up for the statistics) brought not more than 48x the total bet, which is entirely insufficient.

In all respects, graphic and design-wise, this slot belongs to the top-shelf games. From there – it follows tumble in rank, for it lacks dramatic elements in the base game, and the return certainly could be better—neutral advice for both games with real deposits as well as with bonus money.

Bonus Features

Wilds – The 2 female and 3 male western characters pay 50x (for 5OAK), 15x (for 4OAK), and 4x (for 3OAK) on a pay line, plus they can be combined (any character counts). Also, they are the usual substitute for the other
10 paying symbols from the paytable.

Free Spins – 3 Scatters (skull/snake knot) anywhere on the reels will initiate the Free Spins selection. The bonus options presented are available immediately (no need for level-up to gain access).

  • The Good FS – 10 Free Spins, in which every Wild dropped will become Sticky till the remaining spins. This is the most lucrative option and is the only 1 that allows re-trigger.
  • The Bad FS – 5 Free Spins are granted immediately on the 1st stage, and the x3 multiplier will be attached only to the wins with Wilds in it. Gathering more TNT icons will increase the multiplier in the next 3 stages to 7x/15x/50x consecutively, plus by the end of each stage, you will get additional 5 spins.
  • The Ugly FS – there is no play of any sort, just an instant cash prize between 25x and 100x the current bet.
