Game Overview
What was your favourite cartoon when you were growing up? Or maybe you still sneakily watch a few now as an adult? One of my all-time greats back then and, to be honest, even now, is Wile E. Coyote and Roadrunner. So, imagine my joy today upon discovering that game provider OneTouch had created a slot titled Wild Coyote Megaways. This is a 6-reel game that comes with 117,649 paylines, an RTP of 96%, and a maximum win of 10,000x bet. We’re off to a good start, at least.
In true Megaways fashion, the game is jam-packed with features and modifiers for players to enjoy. There’s a TNT symbol which acts as the mystery, and all instances of it will transform into a paid symbol when it appears on the reels. We have the Roadrunner wild too, which can spawn a full reel multiplying wild when it rolls into view on the top tracker. This cascading reels slot also includes a free spins bonus with a progressive win multiplier in play that increments in value each time you successfully create a win reaction. Finally, OueTouch has included a bonus buy option which will cost 100x the bet to activate.
Beep Beep. Who are you rooting for as the Coyote and Roadrunner once again go head to head. Could this finally be the day that good old Wile finally gets the ultimate prize? Why not try out the free demo of Wild Coyote Megaways below to find out, it’s available to play below.
Wild Coyote Megaways Slot Theme, Stakes, Pays & Symbols
Of late, when game providers have transformed a cartoon-like theme into an online slot, the subject matter has been a little more adult related. There was Ted Megaways, for example, from Blueprint Gaming, and come to think of it; they also made Rick and Morty Megaways which proved to be a big success with players. Yes, in the past, we have had classics such as Top Cat, and just recently, Avatar UX released LooneyPop, but generally, we don’t see an abundance of old classics being released as modern-day slots. This is likely down to licensing more than anything else, but I’m sure the regulators are keeping an ever-increasing eye on what themes providers are tapping into. Let’s be honest; they’ve got their noses in pretty much everything else these days.
Over we go to the paytable, and I’ve got a feeling there will be a lot of fun symbols to check out. Unsurprisingly, Wile is the most valuable symbol, worth 10x the bet for a six of a kind win. Next is the mallet that pays 4x for all six on a payline, followed by the rocket at 2.5x. Finally, finishing off the premium pays are the sticks of dynamite paying 2x for a completed line of six, and the baseball bat paying 1.2x if all six hit across a payline. Then, dropping down to the lower pays, we have the classic royal cards. First up is the ace paying 1x for a full payline, followed by the King and Queen, both worth 0.8x. Last up; we have the Jack paying 0.6x, and wrapping up the show is the ten, which pays 0.5x for a six of a kind hit.
I was slightly taken aback by the betting range on Wild Coyote Megaways. Things start well with the minimum/maximum stake coming in at €0.20 and €100, respectively, but the game has a massive jump from €0.80 up to €2, which I thought was a little odd. There will be a lot of players that won’t want to make such a hike up in stake but might feel playing under €1 doesn’t interest them much either. Hopefully, this is just an oversight in the demo, and the casino version will include more options for punters to choose from.
Base Game & Modifiers
OneTouch has opted for a typical Megaways slot format for Wild Coyote. So we have a 6-reel game with a top tracker also present above reels 2, 3, 4, and 5. This allows each reel to display up to 7 symbols and a maximum of 117,649 paylines. Banking some cash across this payline structure will require you to land a minimum of three matching symbols on adjacent reels, starting from the leftmost reel first. There is only execution to this rule, with that being the top-paying symbols, where you’ll only need to match two to be awarded a win.
Wild Symbols
Whilst the wilds do not carry any monetary value of their own, they will substitute for all other regular symbols in the game. However, they can only appear on the top tracker on reels 2, 3, 4, and 5.
Tnt Symbols
Poor old Wile E. Coyote never had much luck with his TNT and dynamite, did he? But things could be about to change in this game as the TNT symbol acts as the mystery within the game. Whenever it appears on the reels, all instances of it would transform into a randomly selected symbol from the paytable.
Roadrunner Wild
The notorious Roadrunner is always trying to outsmart Wile, and hopefully, you’ll see a lot of this unique symbol during your gameplay. It can only appear on the top tracker on reels 2, 3, 4, and 5, but when it does, it will transform the reel below it into a full reel wild with a multiplier of up to x6. This symbol is particularly useful in the free spins feature, as it will always have the max value of 6x.
Wild Coyote Megaways Slot Bonus Features
There is one main bonus feature in Wild Coyote Megaways which is triggered when a minimum of four scatters land in view. Hitting a basic four scatter trigger will award 10 free spins, whilst hitting five, six or seven will reward you with 12, 14, and 16 spins, respectively.
Free Spins
You’ll begin the free spin feature with a win multiplier of x1 in play. This is a progressive multiplier and will increment in value by x1 each time you hit a win reaction. Keep your eye on the top tracker during this bonus, too, as any symbols that match in the reel below it will be transformed into wilds, increasing your chances for more winning combos. Additional free spins can be won if 3 scatters appear in the top tracker, with this adding 4 extra spins to your current total.
Bonus Buy
If you’re eager to get down to business and pursue Roadrunner, you can buy your way into the free spins courtesy of the feature buy option. If this is available in your jurisdiction, you can trigger the bonus at 100x the current bet.
Wild Coyote Megaways Slot Review Final Thoughts
I really liked the design of Wild Coyote Megaways, and I think it’s a decent slot adaptation of one of the greatest cartoons ever made. Yes, I admit, there are not any new and exciting features here that you won’t have seen on several Megaways games before, but I love the theme, and it’s great to bring a bit of nostalgia into your slotting from time to time. I have no doubt others’ opinions of this game will differ, but all slots are subjective to the person playing them, and this is one I thoroughly enjoyed.
