Wolf Gold Ultimate (Pragmatic Play) Slot Demo & Review

There’s not much to say about the theme of Wolf Gold Ultimate, as it’s your typical American Midwest animal slot, with no story and just wide-open rocky landscapes as the backdrop and glorious beasts as the symbols. While that’s nothing special, Wolf Gold did inspire similar releases from other developers down the years. Blueprint Gaming’s Wolf Legend has a similar theme and look, while Booming Games’ Howling Wolves Megaways is another popular title in the genre. 

The payouts on Wolf Gold Ultimate have not changed from the original, with The Wolf Wild and the Buffalo sharing the top spot with a 20x the stake return when either line up 5 times across a payline. The Eagle has a top prize of 16x, the Horse nets you up to 12x, and the Mountain Lion has a top return of 8x. Each of the Ace, King, Queen, and Jack pays up to 2x the stake for five-symbol combinations. 

We end this section with the potential bets that can be placed on Wolf Gold Ultimate. The minimum stake supported begins at €0.25, and the maximum bet permitted is €250.00.

As with the original slot, Wolf Gold Ultimate has a 5×3 reel configuration and 25 fixed paylines across its playing grid. You receive payouts whenever three or more of the regular or wild symbols line up across a payline, starting from left to right.

Ante Bet

For 60% on top of your current spin bet, you can use the Ante Bet feature to spin with double the chance of triggering the slot’s bonus game. 

The money symbols only appear during the Hold & Win bonus, which triggers when six or more of them land anywhere in view during a base game spin.

Hold & Win Bonus

Initially, the bonus game starts on one unlocked 5×3 set of reels, but it’s possible to unlock two more 5×3 reel sets and a final 5×1 set. You receive 3 re-spins of the reels from the get-go, but that counter resets to 3 each time a new cash or jackpot symbol lands on an active reel set. 

As those symbols land, you’ll also unlock the other reels. You’ll need 9 to unlock the first, 18 for the second, and 32 for the third. 

If you manage to unlock the 5×1 grid, it can land the following special symbols:  

• Collect: This will collect the values of all money symbols on the same reel on the other reel sets. It will also collect future money symbols that land on that reel during the bonus.
• Plus Cash: This increases the money values of all values of the symbols on the same reel on the other grids by between 3x and 15x. 
• Multiplier: These land with multiplier values between 2x and 5x that apply to all symbols on the same reels of the other grids. 

Once you fill all positions on the grids or run out of re-spins, the bonus game ends. You’re awarded the combined values of all cash prizes collected

Bonus Buy

The buy bonus feature to the left of the reels allows you to buy the bonus game outright for 80x the current spin bet.
