Wild Wild Rage (Pragmatic Play) Slot Demo & Review

As I alluded to in the introduction, Safari slots are ten a penny, but if I were to pick out one to recommend to our loyal readers, it would be Majestic Gold Megaways from iSoftBet. It’s one of the better Megaways slots around, in my opinion; it has a worthwhile 10,000x the stake maximum win and includes features like Mystery Symbols and a cracking free spins bonus round with a progressive multiplier. 

I might be pessimistic, but I’m not holding out much hope on Wild Wild Rage offering anywhere close to what Majestic Gold does as, on an initial look, the symbol payouts are not great, considering no tumbles or modifiers are playing a part in this title. The Leopard has the best reward of 8x the stake for a 5-symbol combination, the Buffalo has a 4x top return, and the Zebra, Vulture, and Meerkat pay up to 2x, 1x, and 0.8x, respectively. In terms of the non-premiums, there’s the Ace, which can deliver wins of up to 0.6x, and the King, Queen, and Jack, which all have a top return of 0.4x. 

Completing this section we end with the betting structure on Wild Wild Rage. Low-rollers will be disappointed to see a minimum entry point of €0.25, whilst, at the opposite end of the scale, high-rollers can play at up to €150 a spin.

The base game is played across 5 reels in a configuration of 3-3-4-4-4, consisting of 576 ways to win. When three or more matching regular symbols land on consecutive reels, starting from the first reel, you receive a payout as per the paytable for that symbol.  

Money Collection Feature

The following special symbols can appear on the reels during the base game and free spins bonus:

• Money Symbols: Holding cash prize values of 1x, 2x, 3x, 4x, 5x, 6x, 8x, 10x, 15x, or 25x the stake.
• Jackpot Symbols: Mini (50x), Major (100x), or Mega (500x)
• Multiplier Symbols: 2x, 3x, or 5x that apply to Money Collect wins.

The Jackpot and Multiplier symbols can only appear on the fifth reel, while the Money symbols can appear anywhere on the third, fourth, and fifth. Wild symbols, which substitute for all regular symbols, can appear on the first and second reels only. 

Whenever the Wild symbols land on reels one and two, any money, jackpot, or multiplier symbols on consecutive reels after reel two are collected.

Ante Bet

You can spin with an increased chance to trigger the free spins round via the Ante Bet feature, which costs 20% on top of your current stake. 

As for the main bonus game on Wild Wild Rage, it is triggered when Wild symbols land on reels one and two, and a scatter symbol lands on the third reel. 

Free Spins Feature

You’re given 10 free spins; during this bonus, the Money Collect feature is in full swing again. There are more wild and money symbols on the reels during those spins. You can also re-trigger the bonus unlimited times when the same wild symbol and scatter combination used to trigger the bonus lands.
