Wild Booster

Overview

Pragmatic Play are excited to introduce their latest fruit machine styled slot. Yes, this slot will add to the line-up of fruit slots that are already on offer, but Wild Booster has been designed with the readymade market in mind and brings the elements where competitors fruit slots waiver. There are some developers that do something to surpass the genre whilst others are obsessed with certain areas of the game play. Wild Booster is the ideal choice as it brings everything together perfectly and is sure to be a huge hit not only with fruit fans but with players all over.

Theme & Symbols

Although Pragmatic Play have only created a few fruit games they certainly know the drill well and this transcribes with the vibrant purple wall that sits behind a gold-framed 5x3, 20 pay line grid, which is covered in classic fruit symbols. The slot is big, bold, and brash and all you would expect from a Vegas style slot with no hidden surprises when it comes to the visuals. The soundtrack plays along in the background adding some crescendo here and there. Wild Booster is one of those slots that players will either love or play every now and again, although take my advice and give it a chance as it really is great fun and provides some fast-paced enjoyable game play.

When it comes to the symbols first are the lower paying symbols that are represented by the four card suits clubs, diamonds, hearts, and spade which are jewel encrusted and well designed. Next come the cherries, lemons, strawberries and lucky 7s. Landing five of these premium symbols will see you rewarded with 5x – 30x your stake. As the name suggests there is something cooking when it comes to the wild. For starters they can substitute for all the symbols apart from the scatter to create winning combinations and the other power they have is looked at below.

Game Play

Wild Booster can be played on all devices giving players the freedom to play wherever no matter where they are provided, they have an internet connection. The bet range caters for a wide range of players and starts from just 10p per spin up to a maximum of £100 per spin. The developers have rated the slot as 5/5 so as high as they come. The features activate far more often that you may first think but be prepared as they can be all over the place. Big multipliers are possible, but you will need lady luck on your side to reach them. The return to player is solid as you would expect from this developer and when the wild booster is generated it is worth 96.47%.

Features

The first feature in Wild Booster revolves around you boosting a shape or form. The Wild Boost win multiplier feature has a chance of activating on any spin where you land at least 1 wild symbol. When this is active there is a random multiplier of 2x up to 100x that is selected and will apply to all win combinations where there is at least one wild.

The next feature is the Super Boost Free Spins which is activated when three or more of the diamond shaped scatters land on your reels. Prior to the feature beginning you must select whether you want to play with the Ultra Boost or Mega Boost option. In both a multiplier trail appears on the reels above and the diamond scatters that have landed the win are collected in it.

The Mega Boost round beings with a 2x multiplier whereas the Ultra Boost starts with a 3x multiplier. The multipliers will be applied to any winning combinations that have a wild included. The bonus rounds begin with 5 free spins and if you collect a further 5 scatters the multipliers are upgraded. The difference between the two features is that the Mega Boost has multiplier values of 5x, 10x, and 100x multipliers and the Ultra Boost has 6x,12x and 50x multiplier values.

When you upgrade the multiplier, you will also be rewarded with 5 more free spins. If the multiplier reaches the maximum level, you cannot win any further free spins. If you cannot decide which feature to choose you should think that although the Ultra Boost offers a lower maximum multiplier more scatters are presented on the reels giving you a better chance of increasing the multiplier.
There is also a feature buy should you wish to use it and for 75x your total bet you are guaranteed to land 3 – 5 scatter on the following spin.

Conclusion

I must admit when I first saw the slot I had decided on the outcome, however I am pleased to advise that I was wrong. Initially I saw Wild Booster as just another fruit slot, but it offers far more in terms of features and ways to win. There is no doubt that it will be a huge hit with fans of this genre, but I think it will pick fans up along the way as it is the type of slot you play once but find yourself revisiting the game again and again.

Wild Booster has a good pace that flows smoothly, and the Super Boost Free Spins frequently land which meant there was always something extra on offer. However, regardless of the options that you choose there is a worthwhile 5,000x your stake as the highest win on offer.

My rating for this slot would be 7/10 and this is a slot that feels as though it is destined to entertain all types of players. I would recommend that players give this a spin or two and see for themselves exactly what they could walk away with.
