Game Overview

If you asked most people to name a famous explorer, you’d probably find that the most common answers would include Christopher Columbus or James Cook. However, ask a slot player, and I’d imagine the name Wilde would spring to mind. One of provider Play n Go’s most popular characters is Rich Wilde, who has starred in many top-quality slot adventures. More recently, Rich’s female counterpart, Cat, has sprung into action, and she’s the leading lady in this latest release. Let’s explore further and see where she’ll be taking us this time. Cat Wilde and the Incan Quest is a high volatility, five-reel slot featuring a maximum win of 10,000x and an RTP of 96.20%

It looks like we’re off to visit the Incas on this occasion, the people who established a vast empire in the 15th century, covering much of modern-day Peru and Chile. These days, they are best known for their temples and monuments, many of which still stand today, along with their pioneering use of the coca leaf for medicinal purposes. Play n Go has recreated the scene beautifully here, with some stunning visuals on display. Upon first inspection, this appears to be a simple slot where wins are achieved by matching symbols from left to right across a win line, but dig a little deeper, and you’ll find two separate bonus rounds to aim for. The first is a free spins bonus, which takes the falling wilds element of the game one step further, with them now also expanding to cover the whole reel, and a coin collection style bonus featuring the popular three re-spins that reset when any additional symbol lands.

If you love the sound of being an explorer but can’t quite muster the enthusiasm to leave your sofa, then no worries! All you’ll need to get stuck into the action is your mobile device or laptop; then, you can go and check out the Cat Wilde and the Incan Quest demo slot, which is available to play free of charge below!

Cat Wilde And The Incan Quest Slot Theme, Stakes, Pays & Symbols

Cat Wilde and the Incan Quest paytable

As I’ve alluded to, this is far from the first adventure for the Wildes. They’ve been featured in many other adventure-themed slots and have explored many of the world’s most famous ancient cultures and environments. As today’s review sees Cat leading the mission, let’s check out a couple of her other expeditions. First, there’s Cat Wilde and the Doom of the Dead, a high volatility, 5-reel slot with a potential maximum win of 5,000x. Join Cat as she ventures into Egyptian tombs in search of full reel wilds and a bonus round that features expanding symbols. Or, also sticking with the Egyptian theme, we have Cat Wilde and the Pyramids of the Dead. This is another 5-reel title featuring a max win of 10,000x and has expanding symbols, as well as jackpots to hunt for. Phew, quite the heroine, isn’t she? Next, we’ll venture further into the features of Cat Wilde and the Incan Quest, beginning with those all-important payouts.

To receive the maximum payout for each symbol, you’ll need to match five of them across one of the game’s 10-winlines. As you may have guessed, it’s Cat herself at the summit of the paytable, and she’ll return a prize of 200x your stake for each line of five symbols. Next, it’s the Panther at 80x, the Vulture at 60x, and the final premium symbol, the Snake, will pay 50x for a winning combo of five. Keeping it simple over in the non-premium section are the classic royal symbols, with the Ace and King sharing returns of 5x, whilst the Queen and Jack have equal payouts of 4x bet for five of a kind win.

Play’n Go stick to their usual betting structure on Cat Wilde and the Incan Quest, with players having a wide choice of options available to them, starting from a minimum of €0.10 a spin and maxing out at €100 a press.

Cat Wilde And The Incan Quest Slot Base Game & Modifiers

Cat Wilde and the Incan Quest base game

Checking in on the game set-up, we can see that Cat Wilde and the Incan Quest operates on a five-reel, three-row formation with 10 fixed paylines active. Achieving a win is simple; players will just need to match a minimum of three symbols from left to right along a payline, and all wins must commence from the leftmost reel.

Falling Wild Respins

During any spin, it is possible to land falling wild symbols on any row position within reels two, three, or four. Landing at least one will trigger the falling wilds re-spin feature, which sees all these wilds held in position and the reels spin again. It is possible to land further falling wilds during these re-spins, and landing a new one on top of an existing one will cause the wild to expand and cover that whole reel. After each re-spin, all wilds will move down by one row position, and the re-spin feature will end once all wilds have fallen off the bottom of the grid.

Bonus Game

Cross shaped bonus symbols can appear on the grid during the base game and falling wilds re-spin round. Landing three of these will trigger the bonus game. Once triggered, the bonus symbols will convert to stake multiplier values of either 1x, 2x, 5x, or 10x, and all other symbols will be removed from the screen. Three re-spins will then commence, where the aim is to land additional stake multiplier values, which will reset the spin count back to three. This is a common feature seen in many recent games, but there is a difference here: jackpot amounts can be won by filling specific rows with stake multiplier values, as detailed below.

Fill one row: awards the minor jackpot of 50x stake.
Fill two rows: awards the major jackpot of 500x stake.
Fill all three rows: awards the mega jackpot of 10,000x stake.
Only the highest value jackpot amount is awarded per bonus round.

Cat Wilde And The Incan Quest Slot Bonus Features

Cat Wilde and the Incan Quest free spins feature

Free spin scatter symbols appear on all reels, and landing a minimum of three scatters will trigger the free spins feature. The number of scatters landing will determine the number of free spins as follows:

Three scatters: 6 free spins
Four scatters: 7 free spins
Five scatters: 9 free spins

Free Spins Feature

During the free spins bonus, the falling wilds re-spin feature can still be activated as in the base game. Any falling wilds that appear in the free spins round will expand to cover the entire reel. There are no scatter symbols present during this bonus, so it cannot be re-triggered.

Pros

There are lots of action-packed features, including two bonus variants.
The presence of a 10,000x jackpot in the re-spin bonus is great to see.
Sticky and expanding wild re-spins are great fun.

Cons

Cat Wilde And The Incan Quest Slot Review Final Thoughts

Well, what an adventure that was. This is a very good game, and I really enjoyed the number of features packed into it, from the two bonus rounds to the wild re-spins; there always seems to be something going on to keep you entertained whilst playing this slot. Special mention to the graphics and design as well, as I think Play'n Go has made this title look great. Potential downsides for some people could be a repetitive theme and fairly low symbol values at the bottom of the end of the paytable.
