Wild Times Slot Review
Over the last decade there has been a major shift from online
slots developers to provide games💶 with captivating themes that tell a story and boast
cinematic animations, however many of us old-school players who remember spinning💶 the
reels of real money fruit machines in pubs years ago still prefer those kind of slots
as they are💶 straight to the point and let you get many more spins in per hour rather
than having to watch scenes💶 that don’t interest you.
Golden Age of Slots
With golden
laced reels, Wild Times has been developed by Barcrest and takes us💶 back to the golden
age of classic 3-reeled slots with traditional symbols like fruit and bars, which were
also used💶 in fellow Barcrest titles like the Hot Frootastic slot machine and the Red
Hot Wild slot machine, falling on the💶 reels accompanied by a catchy tune bellowing out
in the background before you hear crunching sounds echo out as the💶 reels come to a stop
and you see whether you’ve landed a winning combination or not.
When you add in the
💶 fact that there are 5 fixed paylines and the usual Barcrest stakes of between 10p and
£500 each spin it💶 just sounds like another run of the mill online fruit machine,
however the features that have been included are what💶 make it stand out from the pack
to lure you into having a wild time.
It boasts a Wheel Multiplier which💶 will boost
winning combinations that a Wild symbol is part of, plus you can choose to play in Big
Bet💶 mode where the number of paylines will be increased to 27 and you have four games
to choose from for💶 varying stakes - with a 10x Wild multiplier featuring in the highest
priced one!
Classic Fruit Machine Symbols
It’s the typical classic💶 fruit machine
symbols you’d expect to find on the reels that feature in Wild Times with the Wild
symbol boasting💶 a retro design laced with gold, and while can substitute for all
symbols as there are no other special symbols,💶 it only appears on the second and third
reels.
The most valuable symbol of all is a red star which has💶 been laced with gold
with three of these delivering a sparkling win of 500x, the blue star and shiny gold
💶 bell both offer wins of 100x, the bar and watermelons are worth up to 50x, while the
plums, lemons, oranges💶 and cherries are the lowest valued symbols on the reels with
three of each only being worth 20x, however they💶 do bring frequent wins so we can’t
complain too much!
Wheel Multiplier Bonuses
You’ll be enjoying wild times on the reels
every💶 time you see one of the retro Wild symbol appear in a winning combination as this
will see the Wilds💶 transform into a multiplier wheel with four values on it – 2x, 3x,
4x or 5x. Whichever multiplier bonus the💶 wheel stops at will be multiplied by the value
of the winning combination, and should you be lucky enough to💶 land two of these on the
same line it’s a Super Wild win that you’ll be celebrating with enhanced
multipliers.
Pay💶 for Big Bet Mode
We’ve seen the Big Bet feature included in numerous
online slots developed by Barcrest before and it’s💶 a welcome inclusion here to up the
ante from the base game in the hope of the reels getting even💶 wilder.
As already
mentioned, this sees the number of active paylines increase from 5 to 27 and you’ll get
to choose💶 from four different priced games, with the Wild multiplier values increasing
the higher you go as follows.
£10 Game: Wild multipliers💶 worth 2x, 3x, 4x and 5x
£15
Game: Wild multipliers worth 3x, 4x, 5x and 6x
£20 Game: Wild multipliers worth 4x,💶 5x,
6x, and 8x
£25 Game: Wild multipliers worth 5x, 6x, 8x and 10x
Ready for a Wild
Time?
Wild Times will hit💶 the mark for those of you who love playing slots with classic
symbols but also enjoy the added thrill of💶 base game features as the Wheel Multiplier
bonuses that are applied whenever Wild symbols are part of winning combinations ensure
💶 a constant flow of wild times and big wins across the three reels!
