Duck Shooter Slot Machine

Get ready with your outdoor gear and prepare your virtual shotgun for an exciting duck-hunting adventure on Duck Shooter. Step into the world of this beloved outdoor activity with the latest 2018 release from German game developer Gamomat (formerly Bally Wulff). Adjust your gun visor correctly to trigger the bonus round, where every hunter symbol on the reels will shoot at ducks to guarantee wins. The more hunters you have, the bigger the potential win, with a chance to claim up to 2,500 times your bet.

Gamomat has a rich history of creating entertaining slot games for traditional casinos. As we entered the 21st century, they also expanded their offerings to online casinos. Established as early as 1950, the brand is now part of the German gaming company group Schmidt.Gruppe. Many of their slots feature engaging storylines and have quickly become favorites among players worldwide. Among Gamomat’s recent popular releases are titles like 40 Thieves, Book of Crazy Chicken, Thor’s Hammer, and Ramses Book. Duck Shooter takes players back to the nostalgic days of duck hunting.

The Duck Hunting Reels

Duck Shooter unfolds against the backdrop of a marsh swamp in the early morning hours. The hunting grounds feature five reels, four rows, and 10 to 30 flexible paylines. The game boasts sharp graphics and seamless animations, showcasing the high-quality standard associated with this game provider. An engaging yet straightforward soundtrack builds up to a dramatic climax on significant wins.

There are nine pay symbols in the game, ranging from Js to As at the lower end. Premium symbols, in terms of value, include a duck, a water flask, shotgun cartridges, a pair of binoculars, and a hunting dog. The duck symbol appears stacked on all reels and plays a special role in the free spins feature. The hunter acts as the wild symbol, appearing exclusively during free spins. Scatters are represented by gun visors, with a minimum of three needed to trigger the bonus round.

The Duck Numbers and Stats

This game, with medium variance, boasts an RTP typical of the industry at 96%. Players can adjust the number of paylines before each spin, choosing between 10, 20, or 30 lines. However, this adjustment is not permitted during the free spins round. Betting options range from 0.30 to 18 credits, catering to adventure on the maximum 30 paylines. Lower bet sizes are applicable to 10 and 20 paylines. Wins for landing a five-of-a-kind combination range from 3x to 66x the stake. Both single and stacked duck symbols can reward base game wins of up to 200 times your bet. Perform well in the bonus round, and your hunting spoils could increase to 1,500 times your stake.

Designed in modern HTML5 format, the slot is accessible for play on desktop, tablet, and mobile devices across various operating systems. The auto-play feature allows for continuous spinning until manually stopped. In certain markets, there may be limits on the number of consecutive auto spins, with the requirement to set a loss limit.

The Hunting Free Spins

Triggering three, four, or five gun visor scatters in a single spin will award 10, 15, or 25 free spins, without the possibility of retriggering. During the free spins feature, a hunter and a special duck symbol are introduced to the reels. The hunter can land on any reel and serves as a wild symbol, initially paying out any line wins. Subsequently, the hunter will shoot at all duck symbols present on the reels. The standard duck symbol grants a coin win of 5 times the bet, while the special duck symbol, known as “Super Shot,” pays out 50 times the bet. Up to five hunters can appear in a single free spin, each shooting at ducks and awarding coin wins.

Other Hunting Reels

Duck and goose hunting has been a cherished pastime for many. Evolving from a necessity for food in ancient times to a recreational outdoor activity in the modern era, hunting holds a special place in many cultures. Hunters traverse marshlands in small groups, often using duck call whistles to attract their target birds. It’s common for hunters to employ dogs to retrieve the ducks or geese they’ve shot.

Unsurprisingly, hunting has been a prevalent theme in video slots. The theme of hunting extends beyond ducks and includes targets such as frogs, bounties, treasures, and trolls. If hunting or ducks are themes that captivate you, you might enjoy trying out games like Count Duckula by Blueprint Gaming, Kate Lee Bounty Hunter by Amaya, or Hunting Party by Booongo.

A Duck Verdict

What were my thoughts after spinning the reels on Duck Shooter: quack, quack, or yahoo? To be honest, I find myself somewhere in the middle. The slot’s strengths lie in its top-notch design, flawless animations, and the relatively frequent appearance of free spins. The potential win of 2,500 times the bet is also quite appealing, although it falls short of the massive wins offered by some of today’s more thrilling slots, which can exceed 5,000 times the stake. Achieving that top win, or even coming close to it, seems challenging on this slot. It would require multiple “Super Shot” symbols on every free spin, along with one or more hunters landing on the reels. My testing indicates that such occurrences are unlikely to be frequent.

Nevertheless, Duck Shooter proves to be reliable for regular wins ranging from 50 to 200 times the initial stake during the bonus round. Are you ready with your oiled and loaded shotgun? Then join the hunter on the reels of this Bally Wulff slot and try your luck at securing a substantial hunting bounty.
