Wolf Gold

You'll be howling with delight at Wolf Gold, the online slot from Pragmatic Play which takes a wander through the stunning American West. OK, that might be a slight exaggeration, but you'll undoubtedly enjoy this enchanting journey, with the chance to meet plenty of local wildlife along the way. But it's not just a nature trip. There are cash prizes in it for you, too. Strike it lucky, and you could be collecting the top payout of x2500. 

Africa may be the most famous spot for safari tours, but slot studios seem to enjoy visiting the American wilds too. Buffalo and wolves both seem to have captured the imagination of developers, with both animals featuring heavily in American West slots. Wolf Gold leans towards the mystical, too, with a hint of a Native American theme. With wolves howling as you spin the reels, there's rather a haunting feel to the play - which is curiously irresistible.  

Wolf Gold is set out on a 5x3 grid which includes 25 fixed paylines. The betting begins at 0.25 and can increase all the way up to the max bet of 125.00. Volatility is medium, and the top payment is capped at x2500, so this slot might suit casual and social players rather than the hardcore high rollers. 

The American west is known for its desolate beauty, and this is represented perfectly on the reels. There's a real sense of being out in the wilderness with the eerie night sky and glowing rocks.  

The low pays in the paytable are made up of the standard J-A playing cards. Premium symbols add a little more interest, with a cougar, mustang, eagle and buffalo making an appearance.  

The wolf hasn’t been forgotten; this is the wild symbol and can help you to make more winning lines by substituting for any of the regular pays. 

There are two bonus features in Wolf Gold.  

The first is the Free Spins feature which is triggered when you land at least three sunset canyon scatter symbols. This will reward you with six free spins. During the bonus round, giant symbols are introduced to play; these fill the entirety of reels 2, 3 and 4 and can deliver big wins. You can retrigger the feature by landing three more scatters. This will grant you three more free spins, and there’s no cap on the number of times the round can be retriggered.  

The second bonus feature is triggered when you land six of the full moon symbols. This unlocks the Money Respin bonus, where all the symbols are removed and replaced by the moon symbol, complete with cash value.  

You'll be playing with three respins; every time a moon lands, it will remain fixed in position, and your respins will start back to zero. You might also land blank spaces; these will eat away at your respins and won't award any prizes. When the reels are either full or you've run out of respins, the cash values in sight will be added up, and you'll collect the win. 

Among the moon symbols that can land during the Money Respin bonus feature are prize pot symbols. These are represented by special moon symbols; land the Mini prize pot symbol, and you'll win x30 or the Major prize pot symbol for x100. If you manage to fill the full screen with moon symbols and no spaces, you'll win the top prize pot of x1000. 

Wolf Gold from Pragmatic Play follows a popular theme but is smoothly executed. With free spins and cash prize pot payouts, there are lots to play for, but the modest top sums mean this is more suited to casual and social players rather than those chasing the big money.
