How we selected these casinos
A casino appears here only if it carries NetEnt games, is approved for your country, is currently active, and its offer has been checked recently enough to still be true. Ranking happens among the sites that pass all four — your market decides who is eligible, not who scores well. A site that cannot serve you is absent, not ranked low.

About Dead or Alive
Dead or Alive is the NetEnt western that turned sticky wilds into a staple. It runs a 5x3 grid over 9 lines, and the studio states an RTP of 96.82% with a 30% hit frequency.
Why the free spins round is the whole game
Three or more scatters award 12 free spins. Any wild that lands stays locked for the rest of the round, and every wild on a line triples that line's win. Because the wilds accumulate rather than reset, the round's value is decided by how early they arrive — a wild on the first spin is worth far more than the same wild on the eleventh. That asymmetry is why the game reads as far more volatile than its 9 lines suggest, and NetEnt scores it 9.9 out of 10.
What the ceiling actually means
NetEnt publishes a maximum payout of 8,600x the bet. That figure describes the free spins round with a full line of tripling wilds, not ordinary play, and the 30% hit frequency it sits beside describes spins that return anything at all — including less than the stake.
Stakes and what is not published
Bets run €0.09 to €18.00 across the nine fixed lines. NetEnt does not publish a paytable for this title, so that field is left empty rather than filled from a secondary listing.

Dead or Alive: common questions
What is the RTP of Dead or Alive?
The stated return for Dead or Alive is 96.82%. That is a long-run average measured over millions of spins, not a promise about the session you play.
What is the maximum win in Dead or Alive?
Wins in Dead or Alive are capped at 8,600x your stake. That is the ceiling of the game's maths rather than a typical outcome — reaching it is rare.
How volatile is Dead or Alive?
Dead or Alive is a high-volatility game: wins land less often and the gaps between them are wider, so a bankroll that survives long dry spells matters more here than it does elsewhere.
Can you buy the bonus in Dead or Alive?
No — Dead or Alive has no bonus buy. The bonus round can only be triggered in normal play.
What are the minimum and maximum bets in Dead or Alive?
Stakes in Dead or Alive run from 0.09 to 18 per round, in whatever currency your casino uses. Individual casinos can narrow that range.
