The Cowboy, Bandito, Bandit King, and the Prospector symbols in the Gold Rush Showdown slot machine game are scatter symbols. This means that the Cowboy, Bandito, Bandit King, and the Prospector scatter symbols do not need to appear in a line on an enabled payline to win.
The Prospector scatter symbol can be scattered anywhere on the five reels to complete winning combinations, provided three or more Prospector scatter symbols appear.

If you win you may repeat the Gamble Feature on the next card (and then subsequent cards) or you may collect all or half your winnings. You can continue playing the Gamble Feature game until your potential winnings exceed the maximum win limit.
You can keep collecting half until your balance is less than double the minimum stake level. After that you must either bet or collect all.
All cards are dealt from a new pack - so the card that came up in the previous gamble could be the same card in the next one (so it is always an equal bet).

When the Showdown Bonus Feature game enters the bonus round, the scene is outside a saloon in a Wild West town. Shoot as many bandits as you can in the Showdown Bonus Feature game and win a cash reward for each bandit you shoot.
You have two options here, you can either play the game yourself in "Manual Fire" mode, where you must click on the screen wherever the bandits appear in order to take them out, or play in "Auto Fire" mode, where the Cowboy (Billy The Quid) will do the shooting for you.
To play in "Manual Fire" mode, click on the "Manual Fire" button to enter the Showdown Bonus Feature game. Each time a bandit runs across the screen, appears at a window inside the saloon or pops up to take a shot at you from any other hiding place, you must click anywhere on the bandit's body to shoot him. For each bandit you shoot, a Bonus Prize award will be displayed in the bottom left of the Showdown Bonus Feature game screen.
You have unlimited bullets, but only 6 bullets available at a time, after which the game will automatically re-load your pistol for you. You cannot fire while it is re-loading.
See how many bandits you can shoot before the Bandit King shows up and challenges you to a showdown. How long the Bandit King takes to show up will vary from game to game.
To play in "Auto Fire" mode, press the "Auto Fire" button, and just sit back and watch as Cowboy (Billy The Quid) cleans up the town! He'll do his best to get as many bandits as he can, but remember even Billy will not hit them all.
At the end of the shoot-out, the game will finish and move on to the Showdown scene. Just watch as Billy takes on the Bandit King (caught red-handed after robbing the town!) and wait to see what's in the villain's bag of loot. You will score a cash reward for all the gold and gems in the swag bag.
If you find 3 diamonds in the swag bag, you win the Progressive Jackpot, as displayed on the counter in the top centre of the Gold Rush Showdown slot machine game screen. The chance of winning the jackpot is directly linked to the stake.
A percentage of all bets placed is put towards the jackpot balance and into a reseed fund. When the jackpot is won, it is reset to the balance stored in the reseed fund.
When the Progressive Jackpot is won, all other players will be notified within 30 seconds by the flashing of the Progressive Jackpot balance.
Bets placed when the Progressive Jackpot has been won and a reduced balance is available will be voided.
Due to communication delays two players may nevertheless appear to win the Progressive Jackpot simultaneously. In this case the first payout will be for the full Progressive Jackpot value, whilst the second player will receive the reseed value.
After the Showdown, a summary of your winnings will be displayed before returning to the reels.
When the Showdown Bonus Feature game is complete, you are returned to the regular Gold Rush Showdown slot machine game and your Bonus Prize game wins are added to your win total.
