Wild Moon Saloon: Our Verdict

Wild Moon Saloon stood out to us when we first played it. Something about the graphics just made it pop, and the soundtrack added to the immersion, making it a desirable and tempting slot straight from the off.

First impressions really matter, and Hurricane Games has done a good job at actually making a Wild West Slot look a little different. It’s a very saturated theme, so to even pull that off is a feat in itself.

How did gameplay measure up though? Wild Moon Saloon had moments of promise in both the Base Game and Free Spins, but when it comes to Free Spins, success or failure depends entirely on your setup. Wild Moon Saloon adopts a Wild Heist at Peacock Manor kind of system where you’ll pick your set up going into free spins, with the prospect of unlocking more within the bonus round.

Mega Cards are the key to success, but extra Free Spins are often awarded, and they won’t bring much value unless you’ve got other features behind you to make them worth it.

Overall, Wild Moon Saloon is a good slot with good prospects, but it can leave you frustrated and dejected at times where the setup just doesn’t go your way.
