Design and Audio
Given the fact Wolf Gold was released in early 2017, the design is pretty basic. In fact, the game's visuals are reminiscent of the classic slot machines found in brick-and-mortar casinos. The center of action in Wolf Gold is the canyons where various beasts are found prowling. From buffalo to cougar, this dry land is inhabited by all types of rugged animals. But the most eye-catching among all is the wolf with its devilish eyes and an ominous gaze. Silence ensues in this extended land; all we can hear in the game is the howling of wolves matched by high-pitched cries of eagles.
Features
There are two features in Wolf Gold, each one hosting a capacity to take your wins a notch higher.
###Free Spins Free Spins follow the classic formula of landing 3 scatters on the reels. It is important to note that scatters appear only on alternate reels (i.e., 1, 3, and 5). Once the required winning combination occurs, 5 free spins are allotted to you. **Reels 2, 3, and 4 are combined during the free spins feature, on which only giant symbols occur. **Hitting 3 more scatters during the feature generates 3 additional free spins. Retriggers come with no limits!
Money Respin Feature
The moon orb is a money symbol gaining random cash value on each spin. Landing 6 money symbols in a spin activates the Money Respin Feature. The action unfolds on a special reel from which all symbols vanish except the money symbols. 3 respins are awarded, and each time a money symbol lands, it stays in its position, and the count of respins resets to 3. The feature continues until no respins are left, or all 15 positions are filled with the moon orb symbol.
Values of all money symbols on reels are added together after the feature ends. If all 15 positions are filled with money symbols, you become eligible for the Mega Jackpot offering 1000x the stake. Even if you have no luck with the Mega Jackpot, there are still chances of winning Mini and Major jackpots worth 30x and 100x the bet, respectively.
Payouts
Wins require a combination of at least 3 identical symbols on any given payline. Aim for five matched symbols to extract the highest wins from each symbol. Starting from the basic symbols, Wolf Gold has A to 9 card symbols accelerating wins up to 2x the stake. Once animal symbols come into view, wins start taking major leaps. Cougar, mustang, eagle, and wild buffalo offer in the range of 8x to 20x the stake for five of a kind.
**Wolf is the game's wild symbol **substituting for all except scatter and money symbols. Along with wild buffalo, a pack of five wolves provides the highest returns of 20x the stake. Wolf Gold's maximum payout potential is a remarkable 2500x the stake that originates from the jackpot.
Theme
In Wolf Gold, Pragmatic Play reiterates the theme of wild animals found in many of its slots. However, a unique thing about this game is its setting. The reels are placed in the stony valley where several predators lurk and come out towards the evening. But great wealth is hidden in these rocky cliffs, and to help you reach closer to riches, a pack of wolves might come to your aid.
Volatility
Wolf Gold is neither too steep nor too straight. Instead, the slot has medium volatility suggesting a frequent winning potential of varying payouts.
