Hood Vs Wolf Demo (PG Soft) Slot Demo & Review

Game Overview

Online slots themed on classic fairytales are nothing new, but developer PG Soft has gone full throttle in their release of Hood Vs Wolf, giving this classic story a bit of a twist by incorporating an anime theme into it, too. The result is something quite unique, and I think you’ll like what they’ve done here, so rather than me waffle on in this intro, let’s get straight into it and find out more about the game.

To enhance the base theme of the game, the Hood vs Wolf slot includes some special features. There is a basic wild symbol that appears on the reels, substituting for all standard symbols to help form wins for starters. Then we have the Rock, paper and scissor symbols, which can also land on reels two or four, triggering a game of Rock, Paper, Scissors, which determines how many free spins will be played once the bonus round starts. The final inclusions of the slot are the Battle Feature, which pits Red and the Wolf against one another and the Mini Janken bonus, where small prizes are up for grabs.

We’ve got much to get through in this review, breaking down each of the features for you, but if you want to cut through all of that and just try out the game instead, we’ve got you covered with our Hood Vs Wolf demo slot that’s free to play and comes loaded with unlimited fun credits.

It’s quite a clever and savvy piece of design from PG Soft that mixes the fairytale and anime-slot theme genres to create Hood vs Wolf, especially as the Anime niche is quite sparse on games to play. Yes, you’ve got classic titles from Pragmatic Play, like Starlight Princess 1000 and Mochimon, but those who are seeking something entirely unique that really digs deep into the theme will be pleased to see an interesting alternative enter the market.

Moving our attention next to the paytable, we find the Wild as the highest paying symbol in the game, worth 50x for winning combinations of five. Next, we have the standard premium symbols with Hood & Wolf paying 15x, the Basket and Claw valued at 8x, and the Flowers and Tail paying 5x the bet for a five-of-a-kind win. That leaves the lower pays, where the Ace and King share payouts of 3xm and the Queen and Jack both pay 1.5x, respectively, if five match across a payline.

Wrapping up this section, we end with the betting structure where players can choose from a minimum/maximum of €0.30/€375 a spin.

Hood Vs Wolf features a 5×3 reel configuration with 30 paylines in play. Wins will be awarded when three or matching symbols line up from the leftmost reel first across an active payline.

Mini Janken Feature

The game also contains rock, paper and scissors symbols. These can only appear on reels two and four of the game, with the winning symbol awarding a prize. If you’re unclear on the rules, scissors beat paper; paper beats rock and rock beat scissors.

Battle Feature

During the base game, one-half of the top screen is occupied by the Wolf and the other by Red. There is also a collection bar at the top of the reels, which shows how far one character is pushing the other, each having a score. At the end of a spin, if Hood’s Power or Wolf’s Power symbols appear on the reels, those symbols are added to the collection bar. Should one or the other reach a score of 18, then you get to experience the Hood Feature or the Wolf Feature.

Before the Hood or Wolf feature begins, you will play three rounds of rock, paper, and scissors. Both you and the opposition pick one of the options for each round, and both characters reveal their selections.

Wolf Feature

You’ll get five free spins awarded for each round of rock, paper, and scissors that the wolf wins, with a single frame on a random position of the reels in every spin, too. Should any wild, Red Riding Hood, Basket or Flower symbol land in a frame during the Wolf Feature version of free spins, then all instances of such on the reels will be replaced by between 3 and 8 wild symbols, including the symbol in the frame.

Hood Feature

At the opposite end of the scale, for every round of rock, paper, scissors that Hood wins, you’ll get five free spins and 5 frames in random positions of the reels for each free spin. Should the wolf, claw and/or tail symbol land in one or more of those frames, they will be transformed into wild symbols.
