Wildies (Pragmatic Play) Slot Demo & Review

The backdrop on the Wildies slot looks like the sort of place I’d imagine the Pragmatic Play team go for their lunch. There can surely be no other explanation as to why the developer has so many slots featured on cakes, sweets, and candies, right? Well, perhaps not, but they do have a lot of games in this genre of online slots, you have to admit. So this time around on the menu at Pragmatic, we have Wildies, a 5-reel, 4-row, and 25-pay line slot with a lip-licking max win of 7,500x and a 96.01% RTP.

Aside from the theme, what else can you expect from the Wildies slot game? To start, you’ll benefit from wild respins that could deliver wild symbols with multipliers of up to 10x the stake. If you trigger the free spins bonus, those wilds remain on the reels and move one position each spin, while a scatter collection meter can deliver more wilds with bigger multipliers and additional free spins. Finally, you can buy straight into that action via a buy bonus feature if you wish at a bargain basement price of 80x the bet.

I don’t know about you, but slots with this theme instantly make me feel hungry no matter what time of day it is. If you’re feeling a bit peckish, it’s probably not the best idea to fire up our Wildies demo slot below, but just like a lovely piece of chocolate fudge cake, the temptation to play it might end up being too much.

Wildies Slot Theme, Stakes, Pays & Symbols

Wildies Slot Paytable

I know I was poking fun at Pragmatic Play in the intro, but there are plenty of other developers that have a hunger for sugary-filled treats as well, which you can aptly tuck into here at our demo casino. Max Win Gaming offers the Wild Donuts slot with a 10,000x max win and a cluster pays mechanic, while PG Soft’s Bakery Bonanza slot is another well-crafted option that offers payouts of up to 35,000x across its 32,400 ways to win. If those two are not enough to satisfy your cravings, check out Pragmatic’s Sugar Rush 1000 free play slot along with their Sweet Bonanza 1000 demo, both of which would send your dentist into a meltdown if he saw the goodies on offer in them.

To be honest, I’m getting a sugar buzz just recalling those slots, and that’s not good, considering I’m about to open the paytable up on Wildies. The Cherry-Topped Cake promises the best payout in this slot, with 30x the stake up for grabs for a five-symbol combination. That’s shared with the Wild Symbol, which, as you’ll see later, plays an important part in this slot. They’re followed by a Plate of Jelly with a max win of 24x, a Cappuccino worth up to 16x, and a Candy Cane that returns a maximum of 12x. The Ace, King, Queen, Jack, and Ten represent the lower pays in Wildies, and all pay 1x the stake for a winning combo of five.

If you want to get your mits on all the goodies in Wildies, you can play for as little as €0.25 a spin up to the maximum stake, which is €250.00. The great thing about this range is that there are 40 different stakes to choose from, ensuring low, mid and high rollers can all find a suitable entry point when spinning for real money


Wildies Slot Base Game & Modifiers

Wildies Slot Base Game

The base game on Pragmatic Play’s latest slot involves a 5×4 reel set, 25-fixed paylines, and, as you probably expect, judging by its name, plenty of wild symbol-focused action. As long as the symbol combination starts from the leftmost reel, you’ll receive a payout as per the paytable when three or more matching symbols move across a payline across consecutive reels.


Wild Respins

Wild symbols are two positions in size and can land vertically or horizontally anywhere on in view. They can create or enhance winning combinations by substituting for regular symbols. Additionally, when they land, the Wild Respins feature is triggered. The symbol remains sticky on the reels while all other positions receive a respin. Any new wild that hits the reels rewards another respin, a process which continues until no new instances of that symbol appear.

If further wilds do land as part of this feature, they carry a win multiplier. The second to land holds 2x, the third carries 3x, the fourth has a 5x multiplier, and the fifth holds 10x. Those multipliers apply to any wins created with the help of the wild symbol. Plus, if more than one is part of a winning combination, their multipliers are added together before they’re applied.


Wildies Slot Bonus Features

Wildies Slot Free Spins Feature

You have one main feature to shoot for whilst playing and triggering the free spins bonus on Wildies requires at least three scatter symbols to land simultaneously on a base game spin.


Free Spins Feature

No matter the number of triggering scatter symbols, you’ll receive 6 free spins. However, three gives you one Wild symbol present on the reels from the start, while four and five give you two and three, respectively. Those and any other wilds that land during the feature remain on the reels and move one position on each spin.

As you spin the reels, any scatter symbols that land are collected and for every third, you’ll receive a guaranteed wild on the next spin and an additional 3 free spins. The second wild added this way holds a 2x win multiplier, the third a 3x, the fourth a 5x, and the fifth a 10x win multiplier.


Bonus Buy

If you’re playing in a country where they’re allowed, there is a buy bonus feature you can use to purchase the free spins bonus. It costs 80x your current stake and guarantees at least three scatter symbols on that spin.


Pros

  • The Wild Respins feature can deliver impressive wins - especially during the free spins bonus.

Cons

  • Variable RTP models are available.
  • It can be difficult to reach the 3rd level and beyond during the free spins feature.

Wildies Slot Review Final Thoughts

If you ignore the common theme and focus on the gameplay and features, the WIldies slot delivers a lot of what many of you will enjoy. Sure, it’s not as feature-packed as some other titles, but the slot provides good entertainment and the potential for some reasonable payouts.
