Thunderkick pulls the trigger on Wild West-themed slot The Gunman of Goldwood
Multiplier Wilds and expanding symbols take centre stage in Old Western showdown
Independent slots studio Thunderkick has launched The Gunman of Goldwood, the latest addition to its distinctive product portfolio that places players at the heart of a duel on the American frontier.
The titular Gunman is the game’s highest-paying symbol, surrounded by revolvers, knives, and whiskey bottles. Bull skull Wilds amplify win potential in the base game, with any combination featuring one, two, three or four Wilds receiving a respective multiplier of 2x, 4x, 8x, or 16x.
The Duel feature also enhances base game action and can be triggered at random on any spin. Once activated, any symbol that forms part of a winning combination expands to cover the entire reel, significantly increasing payouts.
The bonus game can be triggered by landing three to five scatters, with players awarded an initial 8 to 16 free spins. The Duel feature remains active throughout the round, expanding winning combinations, whilst one Wild is randomly dropped on reels two to four before every spin, boosting wins.
Free spins can be retriggered by landing an additional three to five scatters, helping to unlock the game’s 7,500x win potential. A number of Ante Bet and Bonus Buy options are also available in regulated markets where legislation allows, providing players with control over their gameplay.
The Gunman of Goldwood continues Thunderkick’s portfolio expansion, showcasing the provider’s commitment to delivering high-quality, feature-rich gaming experiences that strike a balance between entertainment and payout potential.
Johannes Polbring, Product Owner at Thunderkick, said: “The Gunman of Goldwood is the first game I have created from scratch at Thunderkick, and I am incredibly happy with the end product.”
“The slot breathes new life into a classic theme, with the Duel feature and base game multiplier Wilds promising anticipation and immersion from the outset. The features are strong and proven, however, the combination feels new and exciting.”
“I look forward to seeing how players respond to the game, and I am optimistic it will perform well and drive engagement on behalf of Thunderkick’s operator partners.”

Former Gambling Minister the Rt Hon Stuart Andrew MP to speak at Bacta’s Annual Convention
The former Gambling Minister the Rt Hon Stuart Andrew MP who was named Shadow Secretary of State for Culture, Media & Sport in Kemi Badenoch’s top team has agreed to speak at the forthcoming Bacta Annual Convention which is taking place on Thursday 28 November.
Bacta members are on course to be at the 2024 Convention in record numbers based on the number of pre-event registrations received for the high-profile industry event.
With three weeks to go registrations are ahead of the same stage last year with members responding positively to Bacta’s ‘Going for Growth’ theme set against the new political landscape punctuated by Labour’s landslide General Election victory in July and November’s election of Kemi Badenoch as Leader of the Conservative Party. The confirmed attendance of the former Gambling Minister is likely to accelerate registrations.
Looking ahead to Convention George McGregor Bacta’s Executive Director (Government Relations) said: “First of all I am delighted that Stuart Andrew who oversaw the White Paper only to see it paused by July’s snap general election has agreed to join us at our Annual Convention. Members are responding in great numbers to both the Parliamentary Reception which is officially at full-capacity and to the Convention taking place the following day.”
He added: “Our keynote speakers which will include Stuart Andrew will feature in a panel which will explore amongst other topics the dynamics of the relationship between the industry and government, the fate of the White Paper and how we can collectively determine a future in which gaming operators are not expected to wait over a decade before they can raise their prices!”
He continued: “The Annual Convention is an important benefit of Bacta membership. It represents an invaluable opportunity to network with colleagues and quiz the politicians and officials who play such an important role in determining the future of an industry which pays an estimated £270 million in tax and contributes £1.9 billion to UK GDP.
