Dead Riders Trail Slot Review

Dead Riders Trail: Slot Overview

Dead Riders Trail from Relax Gaming drops you straight into a biker heist, playing on a 6x6 grid with up to 46,656 ways to win. Wins form when three or more matching symbols land on adjacent reels from the left. Every win triggers cascades that remove symbols and blast away nearby stone blocks, opening extra win ways. The whole setup feels like an action video game with a board game bonus bolted on.

From a gambling point of view, Dead Riders Trail is very high variance with a default RTP of 96.2 percent, rising to 96.5 percent when you buy features. Stakes run from 20 pence up to 20 pounds a spin, while the hit frequency sits around one win in four spins. The game can go cold for stretches, but the max win reaches a serious 50,000 times your stake.

Slot Details for Dead Riders Trail

Dead Riders Trail uses ways to win instead of fixed paylines, so only the longest combination of each symbol pays. Between three and twenty four stone blocks can land on every spin, acting as blockers until cascades blast them away. Clear every block in view and you spin the Feature Wheel, which is where the bigger money lies. In free spins, average returns sit around forty eight times your bet.

Theme, Audio and Symbols in Dead Riders Trail

Dead Riders Trail opens with an armoured truck rolling into an ambush, then dropping you in front of the reels with masked bikers, flying banknotes, police sirens and a heavy hip hop soundtrack. I like the way the background sells the outlaw story without getting in the way of the grid. Everything feels sharp yet slightly comic book, which suits the over the top multipliers and explosions you see once the bonuses start running.

On the paytable, the low symbols are the four card suits, worth up to around 0.2 times your bet for six of a kind. Premiums are four gang members and the game logo, topping out at one times stake for a full line of logos. It looks weak, but the 6x6 layout and cascades carry a lot of weight. The Route 666 wild appears on reels two to six and substitutes any paying symbol.

Bonus Features in Dead Riders Trail

Bonus play in Dead Riders Trail starts with the stone blocks. Between three and twenty four of these land on each spin, doing nothing until wins explode them. When a sequence clears every block, you earn a spin on the Feature Wheel. The wheel can land four or seven free spins, the Bonus Trail or the Super Bonus Trail, with a golden truck moved nearer the start. If it lands free spins, you can gamble them for a shot at the trail feature.

In the free spins round, some stone blocks carry bombs. Any win adjacent to a bomb blows it, turning the entire reel into a single symbol type picked to give the best payout available. That reel transformation can link with cascades for hefty chains. Clear all blocks during free spins and three extra spins drop in with no stated limit, so you can keep the session alive as long as the cascades co operate.

The Bonus Trail in Dead Riders Trail is where I have seen the biggest swings. Your pawn starts with three fuel cans and moves one to six steps each turn round a board of cash tiles and trucks. Cash tiles pay bet multipliers up to one thousand times, while trucks fire modifiers like Cash, Sniper, Payer, Two Knife, Refuel, Shoot Back, Collect and Collect All, plus persistent versions that repeat on every following move.

Dead Riders Trail Slot Experience and Strategy

From my own sessions, Dead Riders Trail feels like a slot built around the board feature, with the rest acting as support. Regular wins are small because of the low symbol values, so I treat the base game as a way to clear blocks and chase the wheel. On the gamble, I only risk seven free spins; punting four spins into that knife game feels too thin for my bankroll.

Dead Riders Trail Slot Verdict

For me, Dead Riders Trail hits that sweet spot between chaos and structure. The cascades and stone blocks keep the base game engaging, but the big moments sit on the Feature Wheel and especially the trail. When those persistent modifiers line up, you can watch the board fill with fat numbers very fast. Just as often, though, the pawn runs out of fuel early and you limp away with a forgettable return.

I would only recommend Dead Riders Trail to players comfortable with very high volatility and long downswings. The slot rewards patience and a decent bankroll, because most of the stated 50,000 times stake potential sits in stacked trail modifiers rather than the free spins. If you like board style bonuses and sweat fuel cans ticking down, this is one of the stronger trail games released in recent years.
