Bonus Features in Cat Wilde and the Doom of Dead

The Cat Wilde and the Doom of Dead slot comes with 2 bonus features as opposed to the single feature found in Book of Dead. As well as the Free Spins feature with a special expanding symbol, you’ll benefit from expanding wilds throughout the free spins and base game.

Expanding Wilds feature

Keep an eye out for the Eye of Ra symbol which is the wild. When it appears on any reel, the wild symbol will expand to give you a wild reel. Known as the Expanding Wilds feature, it can appear on all 5 reels. When it becomes a wild reel, it transforms into an ancient Egyptian Pharaoh.

Free Spins feature

Cat Wilde and the Doom of Dead focuses on the Free Spins feature. This is played when you land 3 compass scatters on reels 1, 3 and 5 simultaneously. Beginning with 10 free spins, 3 scatters appearing during the feature will give you 10 more free spins. In fact, the number of free spins are unlimited meaning infinite retriggers.

Before the free spins commence, a symbol is randomly chosen to become the special expanding symbol. This chosen symbol can expand to cover all positions on that reel. It will only expand when part of a winning combination. Furthermore, expanded symbols will pay in non-adjacent positions, i.e. scatter style, for further winning potential. Finally, all wilds expand to give you wild reels.

The special expanding symbol can lead to a screen full of the same symbol. The higher value the symbol, the higher your winning potential. Below shows you the max win if you were to fill all 5 reels with that symbol:

This makes it easier, in theory, to fill the reels with 1 particular symbol. Here’s what you would win, per free spin, if you had all 5 reels with the same symbol:

• Q, J or 10 royals = 200 x stake
• A or K royals = 300 x stake
• Anubis = 1,000 x stake
• Tutankhamen = 2,500 x stake
• Cat Wilde = 10,000 x stake
• Wild = 10,000 x stake

Bear in mind that the max win has been capped at 5,000 x stake though.

Theme – Audio & Design Features – ancient Egyptian classic

The Cat Wilde and the Doom of Dead slot has an ancient Egyptian theme. Set outside a traditional burial chamber, it looks pretty much like other slots from Play ‘n GO. Focusing on Rich Wilde’s daughter Cat, the graphics and animations are high definition.

Symbols include A, K, Q, J and 10 royals, Anubis, Tutankhamen and Cat Wilde herself. Cat Wilde is the most rewarding symbol with 2, 3, 4 or 5 in combination paying 3, 25, 75 or 1,000 x your total stake.

The Eye of Ra symbol is the wild which substitutes for all symbols and expands to give you wild reels. When the wild expands, it transforms into Egyptian pharaohs Ramses, Thutmose, Amenhotep and Hatsheput.

Looking a lot like other slots mentioned above, there’s a Cat Wilde and the Doom of Dead mobile slot which is available to play on smartphone and tablet devices which use iOS, Windows and/or Android operating systems. The simple 5×3 layout works well on smaller screens.

Cat Wilde and the Doom of Dead Review Summary – same formula but with expanding wilds

The Cat Wilde and the Doom of Dead slot bears many similarities to the Book of Dead slot which is Play ‘n GO’s most popular game. With the addition of the expanding wilds, it is unique in that sense but ultimately is just another version of the Play ‘n GO favourite.

The best version is actually the Ankh of Anubis slot which offers 15,000 x stake wins on each spin. Another option is the Rich Wilde and the Shield of Athena slot which features Cat Wilde and can pay up to 10,000 x stake per spin.
