Wild Gambler Slot Review

How to play Wild Gambler slot

This video slot has a common setup that includes five reels, three rows, and 20 fixed paylines. Betting in this game is perhaps the most difficult to navigate, simply because there are so many options. Let’s discuss basic betting rules first. You adjust your line bet with arrows and see your stake displayed on the right-hand side. The smallest line bet is €0.01, for a minimum total bet of €0.20. The biggest line bet is €5.00, for a maximum total bet of €100.

This game includes an optional Lock and Spin feature. You can select to place and/or lock any wilds in place throughout the game. Doing so will cost you, and the price depends on how many wilds you want to lock in and where they’re located. We’ll discuss this feature more later in this Wild Gambler review. Autoplay is available in this game when you are not using lock and spin. You can play 10 to 99 spins at a time.

Symbols and payouts

The symbols in this game certainly embrace the wild theme. The lowest-paying icons are 10, J, Q, K, and A, each of which is patterned after a different animal hide. There is a mix of predator and prey symbols, each baring their teeth or batting their eyes. These are the flamingo, zebra, cheetah, and rhino, with the rhino paying out 800x the line bet when there are five on a payline. The most valuable symbol is the Wild. This is appropriately represented by a snarling lion.

He substitutes in for all other symbols and pays out up to 1,000x the line bet. When playing with a maximum bet per line of €5, the lion wild will award you with a win of €5,000! You only receive payouts from wilds when there are five on a payline. The wild is the only icon affected by lock and spin. If you’re not within the free spins feature discussed in the following section, then you have to pay for each wild you retain on the reels. Keep in mind that your wins are still determined by the line bet, and you can’t win more than €5,000 on a single payline.

Best Wild Gambler bonus feature

The best Wild Gambler bonus feature are the meerkat free spins. These funny little creatures pop up throughout the game. There’s one meerkat for each reel, and one letter for each meerkat. When all five show up, they spell out the word bonus and award you with eight free spins. If you’re using Autoplay, it will pause your plays and prompt you to click to begin the bonus round.

The highlight of these free spins is that you gain free access to the lock and spin feature. Rather than footing the bill like you do in the base game, all existing and new wilds are automatically locked in for free. They remain that way through the end of the feature to help you build up big wins. We don’t encourage you to replicate our results. However, as an example, we won over €800 during free spins with three locked wilds and a line bet of €0.50. There’s great winning potential here.

RTP & volatility

The Wild Gambler RTP ranges between 91.89-97%, depending on the number of locked wilds. This is significantly higher than the 95% average for video slots, which should attract players. The game also demonstrates medium volatility. Gamblers will see a steady mix of low-value and high-value wins throughout gameplay.
