It sounds like you’re asking about the **”Wanted Dead or a Wild” slot game** and its **bonus features**, particularly the **”Dead Bonus.”**
Here’s a breakdown of what that likely means:
—
## **Game Overview**
**Wanted Dead or a Wild** is a Western-themed online slot from **Hacksaw Gaming**.
It’s known for its **dual bonus system** — one called **”Wanted Bonus”** and the other **”Dead Bonus”** — each with different features and volatility.

## **Dead Bonus**
The **Dead Bonus** is one of the two main bonus rounds in the game.
Here’s how it generally works:
1. **Trigger:**
Land 3+ **skull scatter symbols** to enter the Dead Bonus.
2. **Gameplay:**
– You start with a set number of **free spins** (often 10).
– The reels have **sticky wilds** (represented by coffin symbols).
– Each time a coffin lands, it opens to reveal a **multiplier** (e.g., 1× to 10×) and stays sticky for the rest of the bonus.
– If multiple wilds contribute to a win, their multipliers are **added together** before applying to the win.
3. **Retrigger:**
Landing additional scatters during the bonus awards extra free spins.
4. **High Volatility:**
The Dead Bonus is typically higher volatility than the Wanted Bonus, with potential for bigger wins if multiple high-multiplier wilds stick on the reels.

## **Wanted Bonus**
For comparison, the **Wanted Bonus** is triggered by **3+ sheriff badge scatters**:
– Features **multiplier wilds** that increase with each spin (not sticky).
– Lower volatility but can still deliver solid wins.
