The Good, The Bad and The Rich Slot Review

The Good, The Bad and The Rich Slot Overview

The Good, The Bad and The Rich drops me straight into a dusty Western town with a bank front and drifting sand behind the reels. It runs on a 5x3 layout with 25 fixed paylines, but one key feature can flip it into a 243 ways mode. I get a high volatility ride backed by a spaghetti Western style soundtrack, so the slot feels like a mix of slow stand offs and sudden shoot outs.

Layout and Gameplay in The Good, The Bad and The Rich

To hit a win in The Good, The Bad and The Rich I need at least three matching symbols from the leftmost reel along one of the 25 lines. Bets start at 0.10 and go up to 8 per spin, whatever currency the casino uses. The interface feels typical for Red Tiger, with clear stake controls under the grid and an autoplay option that takes the grind out of progress chasing.

Most spins use the 25 line format, but when the 243 ways feature is active any symbol on adjacent reels from left to right can pay. That shift changes how I read the grid, since stacked symbols then matter far more than line structure. The game runs well on mobile and desktop, and the clean layout helps when several modifiers and wilds land together during busier sequences.

Symbols and Paytable in The Good, The Bad and The Rich

The symbols in The Good, The Bad and The Rich start with Western styled 10, J, Q, K and A, each paying four times the bet for five of a kind. Premiums are a horseshoe, hat, money bag, pocket watch and golden cash register that pay between six and twenty times the stake for five. Wilds can land on every reel, stand in for any regular symbol, and pay twenty times the bet for a full line.

In longer sessions I find the paytable leans heavily on premiums once certain features kick in. When the game strips out royals or stacks higher symbols during special modes, the gap between a dead spin and a strong hit becomes noticeable. That mix suits the high volatility model, since a couple of lines of watches or registers with wild helpings can pull a balance back quite quickly.

Game Progress Features in The Good, The Bad and The Rich

The Good, The Bad and The Rich places three progress meters above the reels, each tied to a feature. A crossed guns progress scatter can land on reels two, three and four, and every time one drops it adds a point to the current stage. Ten scatters fill a meter and that feature then activates on the very next spin. Progress stays linked to the chosen stake, so changing the bet pauses that trail.

Once a stage is complete, its modifier can also trigger randomly on later spins. If a feature fires and the resulting spin does not pay, it hangs around and repeats on following spins until a win appears. The first feature, called Remove Royals, strips all 10 to A symbols from the reels while it is active. That leaves only premiums, wilds and special icons on the grid, which sharpens the game nicely.

The second stage adds Random Wilds to reels two, three and four, again persisting until they produce a win. The third and most dramatic feature converts the slot to 243 ways and stacks all paying symbols in blocks of three. I needed roughly eighty spins to hit the first stage, then around seventy for each of the next two on my test runs. Once active together, these modifiers can produce some hefty combos.

Free Spins and Feature Buy in The Good, The Bad and The Rich

The free spins round in The Good, The Bad and The Rich triggers when three, four or five scatters land anywhere on the grid. That awards ten, twelve or fifteen spins. During the bonus no new scatters or progress scatters appear, so what I bring in from the base game matters. On the other hand, any opened features trigger more often in free spins, and each activation adds one extra spin to the counter.

There is also a feature buy option in The Good, The Bad and The Rich, which lets me skip the wait. Any of the three progress features can be bought for twelve times the bet, and the free spins round costs one hundred times the stake. I tend to reserve buys for testing, since the math still leans high volatility and it is easy to burn through a roll quickly if the bonus misfires.

RTP, Volatility and Max Win in The Good, The Bad and The Rich

The Good, The Bad and The Rich comes with high volatility, so stretches of dry spins are common before the grid lights up. The highest stated RTP sits around 96 percent, although other versions dip to roughly 95.70, 94.66, 92.70 or even 90.75 depending on the operator. Max win figures quoted in different material range from about 8,136 times the bet up to over 10,462 times, so there is serious headroom.

The Good, The Bad and The Rich Slot Verdict

As a slot fan who has played a lot of Western themed games, I find The Good, The Bad and The Rich fairly generic on the surface. The town backdrop, lonely bank and rolling tumbleweed all tick familiar boxes. The charm comes more from the progress system and how those three modifiers can overlap. When Remove Royals, Random Wilds and stacked 243 ways spin together, the action feels far more intense.

The progress meters filled quicker than I expected, which makes the whole structure feel less grindy than it first appears. I would still class The Good, The Bad and The Rich as a game for players who enjoy swingy sessions and chasing high impact features rather than constant nibbles. If you like high volatility, Western styling and persistent modifiers that build over time, this one deserves at least a few spins.
