Pragmatic Play’s latest release is an adventure you don’t want to miss. There are modifiers, Ante Bet, huffing, puffing and big wins!
Skip the Market and Hit the Bank
This little piggy did not go to the market. Instead it went to the bank to deposit the piles and piles of cash it had won in the Greedy Wolf slot.That basically summons up my first experience with the latest release from Pragmatic Play.
Time to Huff and Puff
I’m sorry to say, but having played a few slots with a three little pigs theme over the years, I didn’t have much hope for Greedy Wolf. I’m glad that I gave the piglets a chance because this version of the dynamic trio together with Mr Huff and Puff himself would even make the 1886’s original author, Joseph Jacobs, proud.
Filled with fun modifiers, Free Spins and even guaranteed wins – let me tell you about the wild ride of Greedy Wolf!
The wolf has a tendency to go a bit nuts
Lowered Expectations
As far as the numbers behind the scene go, nothing is out of the ordinary. I mean a 96.48% RTP and 3,000x max multiplier won’t shatter any records. Add to that a medium/high volatility and your expectations are capped at a decent game.
Three pigs and the wolf, what a classic
Say Hello to the Modifiers in Play
As mentioned, there are some helpful modifiers in play in this game and I will always welcome modifiers with open arms. I mean, who wouldn’t?
This time, Pragmatic Play has been kind enough to throw in as many as three of them and I might as well start from the beginning.
Flip the switch on the Ante Bet and be on your way
Activate Ante Bet
Before I get into it, there is an Ante Bet that you can activate if you want to. If I can, I always do as it increases your odds of getting into the bonus round but also raises your bet by 25%.
In Greedy Wolf, instead of needing 6 scatters for the bonus round, if your Ante Bet is activated, you only need 5 scatters. Nice!
Greedy Wolf Wild
Completely at random, you might get company from a full stacked wolf symbol on reel number 3. He is called greedy for a reason and when Mr Wolf shows up, every single pig symbol on the reels will turn into a wolf.
Things can get a bit wild
3 Little Pigs Wilds and Respins
I told you this game was wild and to add even more proof to the statement, a random number of wilds can be added on the first 3 reels at any time. Wait, there’s more.
The wolf isn’t done quite yet and if he wants to, he can come in and move the wilds one step. This in itself triggers a respin but he can also decide to blow all wilds off the screen and thereby end the feature. Come on, man!
Now that’s a nice win
I Won 63,000,000
I was really lucky and the wolf helped me load up on wilds, which resulted in a BIG WIN! Unfortunately, thanks to the idiotic way Pragmatic Play continues to show the bet and credit amount, the win isn’t as big as it looks.
According to the game, my bet was 3,750,000 dogecoins but the win is impressive regardless and shows as much as 63,000,000. I wish it was €63,000,000!
Guaranteed Win
As you can see, I’ve saved the best for last. There are not a lot of games that offer guaranteed wins but this one does.
Once again it’s up to the wolf and when he comes onto the screen, he will huff and puff and blow away all symbols. New symbols will fall into place and GUARANTEE you a win. This win will either be a 20x win or you will get enough scatters to trigger Free Spins!
Wolf magic at its finest
Free Spins, Baby!
I wasn’t even aware of the feature when I was trying the game so when I saw the wolf appear and blew away all symbols, I was caught off guard.
You need 6 scatters (5 with Ante Bet activated) to trigger Free Spins and all of a sudden after the wolf had done his magic, there were 7 scatters on the screen. Free Spins here I come!
Thank you, wolf
Bonus Round Coming Up
They say he’s greedy but so far the wolf has been very generous if you ask me. With 6 Free Spins in my pockets I had high hopes but it wasn’t until the last spin that something happened.
Reveal the hidden amounts in the end
Upgrade Your Scatters
The reason for this is that the bonus round works a little bit differently than we’re used to. All the scatters that got you here will stick around. Each of them gets a straw mark. Every time a scatter hits a position like that, it will be upgraded from straw to wood, then brick and finally a castle.
Another win that looks bigger than it is
Hidden Numbers
It’s not until the end of the run that you will find out what this means. This is when the wolf comes onto the screen and blows the houses away. As all symbols disappear, different amounts will appear behind them. The better the house, the bigger the prize.
In the end I won 48,000,000 which once again, looks absolutely insane.
I Had a Great Time
With all that happened during my trial run, I only have positive things to say about the game. There are fun helpers, big wins, Ante Bet plus much more and I guess the only thing missing is the option to actually pay for your Free Spins. I didn’t need it this time though and I was granted a bonus round thanks to the Guaranteed Win feature.
In my book it’s a must-play game. At least give it a shot and see what you think. Clearly having luck on my first try helps and makes me a bit biased but I will definitely give Greed Wolf another chance.
I played the game at BitStarz but it can also be found at mBit Casino, Wild Tornado and Rocketpot.
Let me know what you think after you’ve tried the game!
