During my sessions, the gameplay, bets, features, and bonuses of Cash Eruption The Western mainly revolved around a base game where expanding wilds and symbol collections keep the reels active even during losing streaks. The Triple Cash Eruption Bonus created the two moments of significant impact I enjoyed by triggering its Multiplier and Collection features.
Symbol Collections Keep the Base Game Action-Packed
Despite the presence of outlaw expanding wilds, I found wins landed too infrequently in the base game to make this feature one that piqued my interest. The cash bags flying into the safes above the reels added enough action to hold my attention, but I found this collection mechanic to be a bit repetitive after it failed to trigger a feature for a few sessions.
The Collection Feature Offers Jackpot Wins
Activating the collection feature after just 23 spins isn’t something you’re going to do all the time, but it provided me with a good start. I enjoyed how quickly the feature reels filled with coins emblazoned with sheriff stars and jackpots. Each winning spin that reset my respin counter to three heightened my hopes, if not expectations, of big wins. As I landed my 12th coin, I got really excited by the prospect of landing the 15 coins needed to win a 1,000x grand jackpot, and was gutted when it didn’t happen. A 55x my bet return for my first time was a satisfying if unspectacular outcome.
Multipliers Boost Coin Prizes
The respin mechanics of the multiplier feature are very similar to the collection feature, but I liked the twist that the randomly chosen spin multiplier boosts prizes between 2x and 5x. I found this feature more exciting, despite the overall win being only 39x my bet. I lost just eight coins over my 200+ spins, but the irregularity of my sessions confirmed that you could steal some bounty but must be prepared to be gunned down mercilessly.
