Play Wild Weather for Free

The 3x5 game matrix of Wild Weather is set against a dark blue mountainside. It is designed in a minimalistic style, making use of silhouettes to represent the many different weather conditions which feature as symbols on the reels.

This five-reel, 18-payline slot contains a total of 12 weather-related symbols to help you form winning combinations. A minimum of three matching symbols are needed to secure a win, with the popular win-both-ways mechanic featuring to make that requirement a breeze. Or, perhaps, we were just lucky the wind blew matching symbols onto the same payline while we conducted our review of Wild Weather.

Mobile optimized to ensure wild temperature swings can be experienced by players using the latest tablets and smartphones, Wild Weather is playable for real cash from a low limit of just 0.10 credits. However, you might even fancy upping the size of your bet if you’re hopeful that the sun will shine on you during your gaming session. If that is the case, you can risk a high limit of 100 credits each time you spin the reels.

If you’ve played any casino slot machines developed by Tom Horn Gaming before, we bet you’re expecting to hear about alphanumeric playing cards featuring as the least valuable symbols. Thankfully, a gust of wind must have blown them all away. Not a single playing card has been included on the pay table of Wild Weather, as the creative geniuses in the Tom Horn Gaming design department have used theme-related temperature symbols instead.

You’re not going to be too impressed when it’s -0.5° or 0°, because 3x the line bet is the most you can win. Rising temperatures will please you, though. In stark contrast to those chilly temperatures, up to 6x the line bet is on offer whenever the thermometer hits 10°, 22° or 30°.

Whenever it’s a calm or sunny day, you should expect wins worth up to 10x the line bet. However, as the payouts on the pay table highlight, you’ll be crossing your fingers for treacherous weather conditions. The sight of rain or snow falling will see you secure up to 15x the line bet. Things get even more exciting when you hear roars of thunder and see bolts of lightning flash in the sky, as that could see you collect the top prize of 20x the line bet.

Base game payouts on the Wild Weather slot machine might not sound too impressive, but the inclusion of two wild symbols that can expand in different directions is the main reason why payouts have been set so low by Tom Horn Gaming. The only expanding wild you’ll see during the base game is the tornado. Whenever tornadoes force their way onto the reels, they will transform the symbols above and below into wild symbols by expanding vertically. We’ve got a feeling you’ll be pleasantly surprised at how often these appear to help you land those epic stormy wins.

The other special symbol to watch out for is the sun. It represents the game’s scatter symbol during the base game to award 5, 10 or 15 free spins whenever you land three, four or five scatters simultaneously. It’s not possible to win additional free spins, but the good news is that the sun now becomes an expanding mega wild for the duration of the feature. This means that every time you see the sun, it will expand in a random direction to fill a square block of 2x2 symbols. The unpredictable nature of the expansions can lead to some frustration when the wild doesn’t expand in the direction you need, but you’ll find a smile beaming across your face every time the sun shines on the reels.

Wild Weather may remind veteran online slot players of Today’s Weather by Genesis Gaming. It might look older than its late 2014 release date, but the gameplay of Today’s Weather more than makes up for its poor visuals. It’s a high-paying five-reel, 25-payline slot that has been packed with bonus features, including an exciting 5 Day Forecast feature. If you’re lucky enough to pick a sunny day, you could receive up to 25 free spins with a multiplier worth up to 10x.

And for the daring storm chasers out there, you’ve got to check out Tornado Farm Escape by NetEnt for an entertaining gaming session. This fun-filled five-reel, 20-payline slot focuses on a group of animated farm animals hearing a tornado warning on the radio. They see this as a prime opportunity to run away from their farm owner, and they promise very exciting bonuses for players kind enough to aid them in their escape. Get your rubber boots on for this one.

Who would have thought that a slot with a meteorological theme could be so dramatic, yet so enjoyable? Tom Horn Gaming has done a superb job developing the Wild Weather video slot, combining multiple weather conditions into a single online slot. The incredible animations that spring upon you as quickly as a shower of rain are a sight to behold, especially considering the minimalist nature of the symbols.

Tom Horn Gaming has advertised the payout percentage of Wild Weather as ranging between 94% and 96%, describing it as a medium-volatility slot. These are just more positives which join the overall design, sound effects and bonus features. For these reasons, we’re going to keep spinning the reels of Wild Weather in search of more stormy wins.
