The Wild 3 Slot

The Wild 3 video slot, developed by NextGen Gaming upon 5 Reels/10 Paylines/High Variance/Western Theme/Lock and Load Respins/Lock and Load Respins/Super Bet feature.

Despite the fact that contains, an attractive in design concept, my sessions were frustrating. Beware of your Balance, if you try any spin with those '3 Wilds in effect - You can be deceived'.

There are basicly two things you need to know about "The Wild 3", if you want to do good on this NextGen slot:

First: It's a grind game, so anything below 100-150 spins per session will most likely result in a loss. Second: You NEED to play this one with the SuperBet feature activated at level 2. If you find this a bit pricey, you can lower your initial betsize accordingly.

The slot itself is a 3x5 format with 10 paylines, so the win frequency in the base game will normally be quite low. The lion's share of the RTP, which clocks in at 96,78%, is allocated to the random features and the bonus, which all have high potential.

And this is where the SuperBet feature becomes important. At level 2, you have all the wild symbol features activated. The Wild Racoon distributes extra random wilds when activated, the Wild Coyote exchanges all cacti symbols with wilds, and the Wild Bull multiplies any win by 2-10. Obviously, big wins occur, when all three wild features activate simultaniously, but even 2 out of 3 can make the win substantial.

The Wilds only appear on the 3rd reel and can be activated either during normal spins, or if you trigger either of the features "Lock 'N' Load Respins" or "Voltimer Vulture Fly-By". From experience I can say, that it's quite hard to trigger the full bonus, which gives you 5 initial spins with one or more wilds active, while the "Voltimer Vulture Fly-By", which gives one initial spin with one or more wilds active, occurs pretty often.

The full bonus has high value; I have never had below 190x in it, and it quite often triggers the last "important-to-mention-feature", the "Rob The Rich" picking game, that can land you an additional 60x, if your picks are spot-on.

I like this slot, as it has many features and a load of potential. But of course, like any high volatility slot, this can be as dry as the desert wind. If the game won't trigger the random features, especially the "Voltimer Vulture Fly-By", you're left with a low paying base game, that can clean your balance pretty fast. So proceed with caution - and SuperBet level 2 activated.

When this slot is cold, RTP can easily plummet below 10%, which is a bit too brutal, even for my taste.

This game is one of the cruelest games you will ever play. Lets just put it this way I deposited over £200 playing at 40p spins I would say about 98% of those spins were dead spins. No bonus was hit and the biggest win I had was about £4.50. Seriously avoid this game at all costs.

The Wild 3 is a 5 reel, 10 pay line slot from NextGen Gaming and had a a lot of winning potential, especially that up to x10 multiplier. This slot has a western theme and can be played across all devices. Also this would be NextGen` Gaming’s first slot with collectible in-game achievements where you collect features to get a bonus round that is a pick me feature.

The graphics is this slot looks like it bad, but in fact is actually very good. Symbols on the reels include cacti, dynamite sticks, cactus flowers, purple cacti, tall cacti, money bags, gold bullions, safes, and banks. When it comes to wild symbols, The Wild 3 has 3 wild symbols, the Wild Racoon, the Wild Bull and the Wild Coyote. They substitute for all symbols except for each other and the scatters. Each of them gives you the following wild feature
• Wild Racoon feature – if a Wild Racoon appears on the middle reel, it can randomly replace non-wild symbols on the reels with Wild Racoon symbols. If 2 Bonus symbols appear on the reels and either/both are replaced by Wild Racoon symbols, you’ll still get a scatter win.
• Wild Coyote feature – if a Wild Coyote symbol appears on reel 3, all cactus symbols (purple, green, tall cactus) on the reels will transform into Wild Coyote symbols.
• Wild Bull feature – if a Wild Bull symbol appears anywhere on the central reel, all wins where a wild is involved will be subject to a multiplier of 2x, 3x, 5x or 10x.

The Wild 3 comes with a Lock ‘N’ Load re-spins feature. This activated when 2 Bonus symbol appears on reels 2 and 4 without any wild appearing on reel 3. Reels 2 and 4 are held with reel 3 re-spinning up to 3 times. If a wild appears, the free games feature is triggered. During the feature, any wild landing on reel 3 is also held. Each new wild symbol that becomes held on reel 3 also gives you an extra free spin. This slot has a Superbet feature that cost extra but have better chances of landing all 3 wilds on reel 3 and all wild features are implemented, which means lots of extra wilds and a multiplier.

The base game has empty spins and go on forever without winning anything really, so have some decent budget before playing, I won over x200 the other day and saw the potential in this slot.
