| Updated: October 2, 2024Wolf Gold is a 5×3 online slot developed by the Pragmatic Play studio. Players can win on 25 fixed paylines and have their chances of success boosted by a variety of special features including the blazing reels, the money respins, and stacked wilds. Here you can pocket one out of three jackpots – the Mini, Major or Mega prizes.
Paytable and Payouts
Wolf Gold uses animal-related symbols for its winning combinations. The biggest regular prize of 500x the line bet drops whenever five buffalo symbols hit a payline. The majestic bald eagle rewards you with 400x the stake per line for five of a kind while five mustang symbols and five cougars offer rewards of 300x and 200x the line bet.
The symbols containing A, K, Q, and J offer payouts of lower value which range between 5 coins and 50 coins for the first bet level. The game pays for a minimum of three matching symbols. These must align from the leftmost to the rightmost reel for you to receive a payout.
Extra Features and Symbols of Interest
This Pragmatic Play release features a wild wolf symbol which substitutes all regular icons and pays 500x your line bet for five of a kind. There is also a scatter containing a canyon landscape which pays 1x your total bet for three of a kind.
The scatters can appear only on the first, third, and fifth reels. When this happens on the same spin, the player gets 5 free spins. The second, third, and fourth reels rotate together as one giant symbol for the duration of the feature, which increases the players’ chances of success. You get 3 more free spins each time you land the triggering scatter combination within the feature. There is no limit to the free spins you can retrigger.
The full moon is yet another symbol of special interest. Six or more moons appearing on the same round unlock the money respin. The other symbols disappear and the game award 3 respins. Every time you land moon symbols within the respins, their number is reset back to three. This process goes on until you hit a snag with three respins without new moon icons. You win the Mega jackpot if all positions on the reels get filled with moons.
Recap
While Wolf Gold does not stand out with anything groundbreaking where graphic presentation is concerned, its extra features suffice to keep things interesting for players. The game comes with an average theoretical return of 96.01%, medium volatility, and a betting range of $0.25 to $125 per spin.
