Play Roaring Wilds for Free

Don’t expect to be dazzled by the design and theme of this online slot, because it’s pretty basic, but then again, it’s not the design and theme that payout, it’s the symbols on the reels. The bold black screen is broken up by the vibrant paylines (either side of the machine) and stacks of symbols on the reels – these include your typical fruity symbols of watermelons, plums, oranges, grapes, cherries, lemons plus red 7s gold bells and gold stars. As with all Novomatic slots, you will find the control panel stationed to the lower of the screen with display boxes for your balance, bets and wins and various buttons to help you with your gameplay.

Stuffed into a handful of symbols are huge cash rewards, the highest of which is 4,000,000 coins. Land a win line full of golden stars to trigger the jackpot, high rollers can win the amount stated. Low limit stakes can scoop 20,000 coins for just a 40-coin stake. The red 7 symbol is the next highest paying symbol, offering substantially less than the golden stars with up to 200,000 coins. Gold bells offer up to 60,000 coins and the grapes and watermelons offer medium values of up to 40,000 coins for a 5 of a kind combination of symbols.

Like to be wowed and entertained whilst playing online slots? Sadly, you will only get to benefit from wilds, scatters and a gamble feature whilst playing. Wild symbols are represented by the wild logo – simple really, and this symbol can appear stacked across the reels to hit big winning combinations. Wild symbols substitute for all other game symbols. Scatters are the golden stars – three or more in view will return you a cash sum. Now, the gamble feature is a simple game of chance that can leave you with a huge smile on your face or quite the opposite.

When you land a base game win (other than the jackpot), the gamble button will highlight in orange on that control panel. Hit the button and a deck of cards will shuffle on a new game screen. Study the last 5 cards called and decide what colour the next suit will be, now, it’s a 50/50 game of chance so be careful. If you predict correctly, you double your dough to the amount shown on the screen. Guess incorrectly and you lose everything, including your original base game win. The gamble feature allows you to take your cash without even making a prediction, if you get cold feet at the last minute, plus, at any stage after winning, you can run with your money.

Novomatic fruit machine slots have good and bad sides to them – the bad side of things comes with the design and lack of bonus features, but when it comes to the good, you can win heaps of cash for little stakes. You’ve got to take the good with the bad, if you want to win, a bit like spinning the reels really, because you will go long periods without triggering a win in this medium to high variance slot, but these wins will be big more often than not. There is no download needed to play, you simply launch it and away you go. Navigation is simple and the screen is uncluttered, allowing for a pleasant gameplay. The sounds that accompany the spins are basic and if you do opt to gamble, the deck of cards shuffling can really get up your nose.
