Wolf Gold Pokie

The pokie machine has 5 reels and 25 fixed lines. To play the game, players need to adjust a bet. When setting a bet ranging from NZ$0.25 up to NZ$125 per spin there is no need to think of chances of hitting a jackpot, because only a jackpot size depends on a bet, not the probability of winning it. The betting range is broad enough. The pokie machine is absolutely affordable to play for Kiwis favoring penny slots and is also attractive for high rollers ready to stake NZ$5 per line. As soon as the bet is decided upon, players may set the reels in motion and let them bring some line combinations or play features. Line combinations are produced by regular and feature symbols. Regular icons are four playing cards from J to A (pay between x5 and x50 the line bet) and four wild animals (x10 to x500). These symbols pay from left to right when there are at least three icons of a kind on any payline. Wolves are wild symbols doing a lot of good to a lucky player from New Zealand. Wilds substitute for any regular symbol in any line combination. Unfortunately, they cannot do the same in respect of scatters and bonus symbols. Instead wilds pay: hitting 3, 4 or 5 wilds on any payline adds to the bankroll from x1 up to x500 the line bet. It is up to NZ$2,500 if the online casino game is played for real money and the stake is set at the maximum value of NZ$5 per line. There is one more bonus coming with wild symbols. They appear on the reels just the way true wolves appear in the wilderness, in a pack. Wilds come stacked and take an entire reel at once. Chances are to have the 5×3 field taken entirely by 15 wolves generating up to NZ$12,500 for a player. This is why the slot machine is called Wolf Gold! Scatters pay a rather modest award of x1 the bet if a player manages to land 3 scatters in any position on reels 1, 3 and 5. And a cash award comes with a free spin bonus. The scatter bonus symbol looks like the full moon fitting perfectly well into the imagery and theme of the pokie machine. The moon can land on any reel in the base game and during free spins and when it does so, it triggers a Money Respin feature and greatly assists players in winning some decent money or jackpot as the case may be.

From time to time, moons find their way to the reels. Their appearance has no effect until there are at least six of them. Values written across the face of each moon represent a cash award it will pay out when the bonus feature starts. An attentive player may notice that some moons land with figures equal to Mini and Major Jackpots. The next second, the reels brush off all other icons, while moons become sticky and keep their positions. No other icons or symbols appear till the moment the feature is over. Then the online casino game starts running 3 Money Respins one by one. A player’s aim is to fill as many empty cells with new moons as possible. This looks unlikely as soon as there can be up to nine empty cells, and three respins are obviously too few to collect 9 moons. But there is a special bonus: every new sticky moon resets the counter of Money Respins back to 3. So, starting with 6 moons and 9 empty cells, a lucky player can reset the counter every spin and always have respins at his disposal. The total win in the feature may include Mini or Major jackpot equal to x30 or x100 the total bet which is paid as an extra to values written on top of other moons. This means a potential win would exceed NZ$3,750 or NZ$12,500 (these are values of Mini or Major jackpot, respectively, at max). With the best prize, Mega jackpot, the feature follows the same way, that is, no extra efforts or rounds are needed. To win the Mega jackpot amounting to x1,000 the stake (in New Zealand dollars or bitcoin) a player needs to collect all 15 Moons during Money Respins. Note that the jackpot functionality is also present in a mobile casino version of this video pokie.

The feature unlocks when three scatters land. The online casino pokie grants all winnings earned in the triggering round and transforms reels 2, 3 and 4 into one huge reel hosting one huge symbol. In other words, it is a 3×3 block of matching symbols. Having added stacked wilds on reels 1 and 5, a player gets an extremely lucrative configuration with 15 icons of a kind and the slot machine will thus pay the top line award on all the 25 lines. Although the initial number of free spins is only 3, the feature is retriggerable and there is no limit on the total number of extra FS players may win.

The Wolf Gold pokie by Pragmatic Play is a decent choice in terms of features and payouts. It accepts bets between NZ$0.01 and NZ$5 per line and pays up to x500 the line bet in the base game. A bonus feature draws hefty cash awards and 3 jackpots of x30, x100 and x1,000 the total bet. Free spins play with a giant 3×3 symbol on reels 2–4 and retrigger without limit.
