Wolf Strike Slot Review

Wolf Strike RTP, Details & Wager Limits

The Wolf Strike slot is played on 5 reels, 3 rows, and has 20 fixed paylines. Winning combinations are formed by matching symbols from left to right, beginning from reel 1. You need 3 matching A-9 symbols for a winner, but the higher paying symbols will payout with just 2 matching.

Bets range from just 10p up to £50 per spin, which caters to all bankrolls. Simply use the + and – buttons below the reels to adjust your stake. Up to 99 autospins are also possible in territories outside of the UK.

The Wolf Strike RTP is 95%, which is less than the average for an online slot but fairly normal when you consider there are jackpots. 40% is reserved for the base game, with 30% used for the Hold and Win Respins feature, and 25% set aside for the Free Spins feature.

This isn’t unusual to see when you have a slot with jackpots, and what’s even better here is that the slot volatility is set to medium. This essentially means that you’ve got a better chance at landing more frequent big winners compared to a slot with higher variance.

The maximum win here is 5,100 x your stake, which is pretty generous. Your best chance of landing this is during the Free Spins feature as there are chances to land more and more free spins during the bonus round.

Theme – join the Wolves on a journey across North America

The theme here is typically native American, with the dramatic audio using instruments like drums and the traditional flute. It’s quite repetitive, so you’d be forgiven for muting the sound after a while.

The reels are set in the North American countryside, with lakes, trees, mountains, and a shooting star in the background. With the dark visuals, the bright symbols certainly stand out and it’s really pleasing to the eye.

On the reels, you’ll see the usual A-9 royals as the lower-paying symbols. These are joined by buffalos, deers, pumas, and wolves. The wolf is the game’s wild symbol. The Wild Wolf is the most rewarding symbol, paying 0.3, 2.5, 8 or 50 x your stake, for 2, 3, 4 or 5 in combination respectively.

In the base game, if the Wolf Wild lands on the same reel as 2 Nuggets, it causes the Wolf symbol to fully expand and payout the Golden Nugget’s value. Not only that but those nuggets can also randomly transform into a jackpot symbol.

Wolf Strike Mobile

Iron Dog Studio uses HTML5 for all slot games. Things are no different with the Wolf Strike slot game and it’s available to play on mobile, laptop, PC and tablet devices. The 5×3 layout works well on smaller screens, especially with the sharp HD visuals.

Wolf Strike Bonus Features

There are 3 main bonus features attached to the Wolf Strike slot and they’re all ones that you’ve probably come across with numerous other slots – free spins, respins, and fixed jackpots. Let’s expand on each one so that you can fully understand what’s going on.

Hold and Win Respins feature

Landing 6 golden nuggets in the base game of the Wolf Strike slot will trigger the Hold and Win Respins feature. It works as you’d expect – 3 respins will occur and your aim is to land more nuggets. If 1 or more land, the respins rest to 3 and you carry on until either the reels are full or you don’t land any further nuggets.

Each nugget will have a value attached to it, with the average nugget value being 3x. Once the bonus round is over, the values are all added together and you win that total amount. Iron Dog states that the average feature win here is 30.43 x your stake, which is pretty generous.

In the screenshot above, you’ll notice a stone with a paw imprint on it – this is the Strike Nugget symbol. If you manage to land 3 or more of these during the respins, you will land the mini, minor, or major jackpot:

• 3 Strike Nuggets = Mini Jackpot
• 4 Strike Nuggets = Minor Jackpot
• 5 Strike Nuggets = Major Jackpot

Here’s a helpful breakdown of the jackpot payouts:

Free Spins feature

Landing 3 or more scatters in the base game will trigger the Free Spins feature. Here’s how many free spins you could get:

Simply spin away until the free spins run out. During the bonus round, landing 3, 4 or 5 scatter symbols will award 4, 6 or 10 additional free spins. Please note that Scatters turn into Golden Nuggets during the Free Spins feature.

If you land 6 nuggets during the Free Spins feature, you will trigger the Hold and Win Respins feature with a higher payout than if it was triggered in the base game.

Wolf Strike Summary – A simple but fun slot from Iron Dog

The Wolf Strike slot draws many comparisons from Pragmatic Play’s Wolf Gold slot with its Free Spins and Respins feature, but this one is arguably a step up due to the fact that the max win is 5,100 x your stake here, which is double that of Pragmatic’s release.

We tested the game thoroughly and we are happy to say that we landed the Hold and Win Respins feature a number of times. The same can’t be said for any of the 3 jackpots or the Free Spins feature. These are a lot harder to come by. Nevertheless, it’s a fun slot to play, and if you’re a fan of the theme, we’re sure you’re going to enjoy it.

Looking for more wolves? The Big Bad Wolf Megaways slot from Quickspin is a more fairytale type game but the max wins here are big at 30,540 x your stake. The Curse of the Werewolf Megaways slot is even bigger in terms of max win potential at 40,976 x your stake.
