Wolf Gold slot review

Wolf Gold is a video slot from Pragmatic Play, released in April 2017. It uses a 5-reel, 3-row grid with 25 fixed paylines, and if you want to see how it compares with Big Bad Wolf and other games in the genre, our video slots section has more.

The headline feature is the Money Respin. Land six or more Moon money symbols in the base game to start three respins. Each new money symbol resets the counter to three. The feature can also trigger during free spins, and filling all fifteen positions awards the Mega Jackpot of 1,000x the bet. That jackpot is a fixed multiplier.

Free spins start when three Sunset Canyon scatters land anywhere on the reels. You get five free spins, and during them the three middle reels combine into one giant symbol. Three more scatters during the feature award three additional spins, with no limit on retriggers.

The game has three fixed jackpots inside the Money Respin feature. Mini pays 30x the bet, Major pays 100x and Mega pays the top amount. These are fixed multipliers that do not grow over time. The top prize is awarded only when all fifteen grid positions are filled with money symbols. You can try the game for free on this page before playing for real money.

How Wolf Gold works

The game has 25 fixed paylines. The Wolf wild substitutes for all paying symbols except the scatter and the money symbol. It is also stacked.

The Sunset Canyon scatter is the key to free spins. Three scatters anywhere on the reels trigger five free spins. During the feature, the three middle reels merge into one giant symbol. Three more scatters during the feature add three spins, with no cap on retriggers.

The Moon money symbol is the trigger for the Money Respin. Six or more of these anywhere on the grid start the feature with three respins. Each new money symbol that lands resets the respin counter to three. Money symbols carry cash values up to 100x the bet. The feature ends when respins run out or the grid is full.

The Money Respin can also start during free spins if six or more money symbols land. The same rules apply. Three respins, reset on each new money symbol, and the fixed jackpots. Mini pays the smallest multiplier, Major pays the middle one and Mega pays the top amount, all fixed.

The Info and Paytable screens in the game explain the paylines and symbol values.
