Software development company from the Isle of Man, Microgaming, and one of its partner studios, Fortune Factory, have extended the supplier’s catalog by another amazing slot addition – Showdown Saloon. This time, the story is taking us to the old west, as dust and dirt of the American frontier bring players to a saloon full of fast-paced western action.
Equipped with 5 reels and 15 paylines, this astonishingly beautiful slot with a cowboy theme is loaded with excitement, thrill, pattern-based Mystery Stacks, re-spin rounds and of course additional spins.
The well-illustrated graphics combine all sorts of accessories a saloon from that period was so proud of – pistols, playing cards, rolling dice and poker chips, as these symbols capture the essence and bring the wild west theme closer to players…
Distinctive audio effects, and a quite catchy funk melody reach peak when train whistles and ricocheting bullets kick in, building a suspense and intense atmosphere. Aiming for big rewards makes the gameplay even more extreme, as Mystery Stacks can be activated on every reel.
Second Game Under Fortune Factory Studios
Head of game production at Fortune Factory, Phelan Sykes, expressed his delight about the launch:
“Enriched with exciting graphics and sounds, Showdown Saloon gives you the feeling of mingling with card sharks and gunslingers in a classic wild west saloon. Optimized for desktop and mobile, the game allows players to set their sights on high stakes wins.
We are confident players will enjoy the game as much as we do and look forward to releasing more games for Microgaming in the future.”
David Reynolds, games publisher at Microgaming also shared his opinion:
“Showdown Saloon is a fast-paced, thrilling and rewarding experience for all kinds of players. The soundtrack is orchestrated with high production and fits perfectly with the theme – you can't help but tap your feet and get into the wild west zone as re-spins set the scene for exciting rewards.
Showdown Saloon is the second game under the Fortune Factory Studios brand, and there are plenty more exclusive titles coming from this talented collective. Players will experience high volatility gameplay within this title as they aim to hit that full reel blackout.”
Features That Amplify The Western Theme
As previously mentioned, Showdown Saloon offers a collection of features that amplify its theme. One of the most engaging components of the game is Mystery Stacks, that can be loaded on each and every reel.
This symbol can be replaced by another single icon, whereby the upper limit is fixed to three across all reels. Additionally, stacks on reels one and two always boast the same matching figure, and the re-spin round is activated when “the full symbol stacks of the same symbol land on reels one and two.”
Apart from this trait, there is a phenomenal bonus round during free spins. Players will have an opportunity to trigger up to 15 extra rounds, but the intensity increases as guns and poker chips start flying far and wide, making the entire ambience even more energetic.
The game description also reads the following:
“Once the reel deck is filled with matching symbols, players can set their sights on some high stakes wins up to 1500x their bet.”

look pretty nice, but Went we will play, Owner will cheat, disconnect us from the server.... See that so many time, you're on the run and then they drop dead, we get disconnect or other tactic. It's time that all Online Casino Act honestly and not only think of there pocket. We should be able to deposit 50$ and BUST the slots and win 1,000$ it happen so rarely. we double up, make 100$ 140$ then increase our bet and then nothing nothing... So frustrating not be able to win big except went we bet 10$ 20$ spins.
