Wolf Fang The Wilderness Overview

The features included in this game start with the wild icon feature. The wild icon in this game is the wolf. This symbol can substitute for other regular icons to help players score more wins in both the base and free spins game. The other main feature in this game is the free spins round, triggered when players simultaneously land three or more scatter icons on the reels. The game, at this point, will give you a choice between two free spin sounds with different parameters. All features will be explained in more detail later in the review.

Wolf Fang The Wilderness Theme and Symbols

The theme for this game is a desert animal theme. Like the previous game in the series Wolf Fang, the chief inspiration for this game comes from the animal kingdom, more specifically, the world's apex predators. In this slot, it is no different apart from that the game now focuses on the predators of the desert. This means players will see snakes, eagles, mountains, lions and wolves. The only one that doesn't really fit this desert setting is the black bear. This inaccuracy is commonplace with games of this type, though, as designers rush to try and pack the board with the most exciting images they can find, regardless of their thematic relevance.
The background for this game is an arid landscape on the edge of a desert. From the looks of the type of trees and the scrub located around the screen, this could be an image of Nevada in the US. The image was captured sometime during the early morning hours, with the faint glow of the sun starting to rise on the right-hand side of the screen. It is a scene which is quite calming and juxtaposes with the faces of the killer animals on the board.
The playing board for this game looks to be made out of wood, with the corners receiving some details with rope bindings.
The symbols are split into low-paying, high-paying and special symbols. The low-paying icons are the 10, J, Q, K and A in playing card royals. The A is the most valuable of these, worth 10x the take for the top combination. The more lucrative icons, however, are the snake, the bear, the mountain lion and the bald eagle. The eagle is the most valuable regular symbol, paying out at 200x the stake for the top combination. The special icons here are the free spins scatter and the wild which is a lone wolf.

Game Play

Further information, including a short tutorial and a display of the paytable, can be found via the menu button in the right-hand corner of the screen. The spin and auto spin buttons are located in the centre of the screen. Volatility for this slot is rated in the low range. The return to player percentage for Wolf Fang The Wilderness is 95.9%, which is below average. The biggest payout that players can win on one spin is 2,000x your stake.

Wolf Fang The Wilderness Features

The first feature in this game is the wild icon feature. The wild in this game is the wolf. It can substitute for any other regular icon on the board to help score more wins in the base and free spins game.
The main feature here, however, is the free spins round, triggered when players land three or more of the scatter icons on the board simultaneously. If you manage to do this, then the game will offer you two free spin rounds to choose from.
The first one offers 20 free spins in which all the medium symbols will fall out in the form of complex symbols of the size of 1x2.
The other bonus round offered is one with ten free spins, but in which all the medium-sized symbols will fall out in the form of symbols with a stack of 1x3.
This game has no bonus buy or gamble options, and the free spins round cannot be re-triggered from within the bonus.

Conclusion

Like its predecessor, this free slots no deposit offers straightforward gaming with a couple of nice features. You aren't likely to win amazing life-changing amounts, but you could get a few tidy wins. The theme, although quite engaging, feels a little lazy with not overly impressive graphics. This is a solid game but nothing that will have us recommend it above anything else in the Spinomenal canon. Try also Buffalo, a fun demo game full of bonus.
