Slot Features
Wild symbol in the game can appear on all reels and it can substitute for all the symbols except the Scatter, to help form win combos. At the same time, Wild can form win combos for 5 Wilds on the same pay line.
Modifiers
The base game comes with 3 modifiers: Greedy Wolf Wild, 3 Little Pigs Wilds and Respins, and Guaranteed Win. Greedy Wolf Wild is a randomly fully stacked and expanded Wilf symbol that can hit on reel 3. At this point, all Pig symbols will transform into Wolf symbol before the pays are awarded.
With 3 Little Pigs Wilds and Respins a random number of Wilds will be added to the screen on reels 1 through 3. Then the Wolf will come with a chance to move the Wilds one position to the right and trigger a respin, or he will blow the Wilds out of the screen and the feature will end. Respins will keep happening for as long as there are Wilds on the screen.
The Guaranteed Win will happen randomly on a no-win spin when a Wolf will come on the grid and blow all the symbols away after which new symbols will fall to fill the spaces and award a guaranteed win of x20 the bet or trigger the Free Spins feature.
Free Spins
Hitting a minimum of 6 Scatters will trigger the feature and award 6 spins. At the beginning of the feature, all the positions of the triggering symbols will be marked with a square. Each time a Scatter hits on a square during the feature the square will get upgraded, and if it hits in a non-square position it will become framed. Squares progressively upgrade from the initial straw setting to wood, then brick and last the castle. All the markings will remain in position till the feature ends.
At the end of the feature, when you run out of the spins, all the marked positions will transform into houses and the Wolf will appear to try and blow them away. If he manages to do so, the blown houses will reveal random money prizes hidden behind each of the houses. If however, you manage to upgrade all the positions to the castles during the feature, the money prizes will be revealed immediately and the remaining spins will be forfeited. You can win additional spins by hitting an additional 3+ Scatters during the feature on the same spin.
Summary
Greedy Wolf has a design fitting to the theme, and you will get the feel like you’re in an illustrated book of fables. In terms of gameplay, we can say that the game is simple and straightforward, but doesn’t seem to have been a challenging project for Pragmatic Play’s team, as we know they can do much better. Numbers are modest and they come with medium volatility, varying RTP and a max cap that does not go over x3000 the bet.
Lard Have Mercy: Porking It Right & Blowing Hard For Bonuses On Greedy Wolf!
Greedy Wolf, the video slot that had me huffing and puffing with curiosity last June! I remember my finger hovering over the spin button, the ante bet activated like a secret weapon for easier triggers. Little did I know I was in for a reminiscent ride that would make even the Big Bad Wolf's head spin!
From the moment I fired up Greedy Wolf, I couldn't help but draw comparisons to my local casino favorite, Huff and Puff. Both games share that fairytale charm, but Greedy Wolf struts it's furry stuff with a beefier 5x4 reel setup that had me salivating at the extended reels.
Here's a little secret, triggering that hard to earn bonus round without the ante bet? It's about as likely as the Three Little Pigs inviting the scary wolf over for tea. Trust me, I've tried, and it's enough to make you want to blow the house down in frustration. But with the ante bet enabled? Oh boy, the slot gods are smiling down on you and for some reason sunlight just appears from nowhere, like hope arrived by surprise! Without bonus bets = hopeless, with bonus bets = body roll dance!
Speaking of bonuses in Greedy Wolf, I managed to snag the 6 scatter extravaganza. It was more amusing than a wolf chase through the forest. I walked away with a tasty 150x win, which had me grinning like the disappearing Cheshire Cat (wrong fairytale and wrong time, I know, but you get the thought).
Although, here's where Greedy Wolf falls a bit short of it's porcine-pursuing cousin. In Huff and Puff, those brick houses are practically gold mansions in appearance, overflowing with large prizes including a few coin jackpots. Greedy Wolf? Well, let's just say the construction budget was a bit tighter! No jackpots displayed or anything that would be surprisingly high to players like myself!
The scatters in the feature are not as abundant as the meat options at a wolf's dinner party. That being said, I've got to give a standing ovation only to the Greedy Wolf's wild feature. The middle 3rd reel, completely covered by our handsome lupine friend, transforming any pig symbols into top-tier wolves. It's a sight that'll have you howling proudly and scrambling for that screenshot button faster than you can say "not by the hair on my chinny chin chin".
At the very end, Greedy Wolf left me feeling... well, "greedy" for more. It's got that good enough charm, it's got small potential, but it could use a little more oomph in the RTP department. If I were the casino manager, I'd consider giving this wolf a bit more bite. The bark is there but not enough for it's chompers.
Greedy Wolf gets a tight 7 out of 10 from this seasoned slot spinner from Canada. It's not quite ready to blow any house down, but it'll certainly huff and puff it's way into your heart and maybe your wallet, if you're lucky!
