Texan Tycoon Slots
Texan Tycoon slots is a wealth-based slot featuring a rich oil tycoon and his oil rigs. It’s a 25-payline bonus slot from RTG that has a progressive jackpot, too. Our review of this slot game covers what you can expect to find while playing it.
Start With the Paytable
We want to mention the Oil Tycoon Wild first. When he appears and helps form a winning payline with three or more symbols, you get a 2x to 10x multiplier. The 10x, which we won often, is one of the best multipliers we’ve encountered in a base game. Most symbols require a match of three or more symbols, but the higher-paying symbols offer a prize with two or more matches.
- 9, 10, and Jack – 5, 15, or 100 coins
- Queen, King, or Ace – 5, 25, or 250 coins
- Oil Barrel – 2, 10, 50, or 500 coins
- Worker – 2, 15, 150, or 750 coins
- Truck – 3, 20, 200, or 1,000 coins
- Money – 5, 50, 500, or 1,500 coins
The Oil Well scatter pays 1x, 2x, 20x, or 200x. These prizes are multiplied by your total bet. If you have a total bet of $5, you’d win $1,000.
How the Free Spins Feature Works
Three or more Oil Well scatters trigger the free spins bonus round. Choose one of the triggering wells to determine how many free spins you win. It’s possible to get up to 25 free spins, and all of these spins have a 3x multiplier in play.
Set Your Wager and Spin the Reels
The jackpot is often well over $2,500 when it’s randomly awarded to a player. The only way to win it is by playing Texan Tycoon often. With bets as low as 25 cents with all 25 paylines active, you don’t have to spend a lot to win thousands.
While you can spin the reels yourself, we found it much easier to turn on autoplay. It’s a one-click option that you can start and stop by tapping the “Autoplay” button. The reels aren’t as fast as some games, so we appreciated not having to wait and click the button again each time the reels finally stopped.
We spent time playing the game at 25 cents per spin. Our experience proves it’s worth it. Four of our 10 spins were winners and some had the 10x multiplier from the oil tycoon. We kept going to try to trigger the bonus feature and finally did on our 18th spin. Our pick resulted in 8 free spins.
This is an older slot game that’s not as advanced as newer slots, but it’s still worthwhile. Give the reels a spin and see if you have even better luck.
