Wild Water Slot

With the slot of Wild Water, NetEnt provides some interesting things visually, at the used working system and appearing style and personally I’m not sure whether I like these unique methods or not. The slot has a ‘surfing’ theme and that’s why almost all used symbols illustrate all kind of surfers and strangely the creators placed the whole screen back in time to the 70’s and I don’t necessarily see the meaning of it. The graphics of the game reflects the well-known and high quality work of this developer but here it is manifested in scratch-drawing technique which I’m not really a fan of. The exercised colours are moderate but greatly chosen and the design of the game is also very decent. The displaying method of the appearing symbols is not too common as the icons may appear on the reels in single format and stacked format too and because of it sometimes we can see a very unusual screen where the landed icons really look strange and at times are unfitting to each other. Perhaps it’s just me but somehow I don’t get here that kind of atmosphere and pictorial world what makes NetEnt one of the best in the business and that’s why the overall visual effects and experience is not that powerful and adorable as at other product from this developer.

Sometimes I also experience this kind of unknown feeling which is very new for me at a NetEnt product as if something would be missing here and the game should offer overall something more and better (and even the features the game. has also would require more remarkable qualities). The best paying 5 of kind type win rewards us only 2000 times of line bet which is surprisingly not a too generous amount. Shark figure is the Wild of the game but besides substituting other pictograms in winning combinations it can’t really give any another plus to the wins during normal game mode but at least it appear in expanding format if a win can be achieved by this move in free spin feature which is triggered by getting at least 3 Scatters (also has got own paying ability but it is just 60 times of total bet in best case) then 15 free spins are awarded.

The slot provides two bonus rounds too which are not traditional bonuses as we’re not carried over to secondary screen and aren’t involved in any ways so the entertaining and excitement values of this extras are very close to be zero. Surf’s Up and Surf Team bonuses just focus on the appearing symbols and when 5 Surfer characters land on the reels covering all three spots on a reel and at least 2 of them are identical we win 20 times of total bet and if they represent all 5 Surfers a very decent 200 times of stake prize is credited to the balance.

Personally, this product is a little bit disappointment for me. Even though the working qualities of the game segment are average and the winning tendency of the combinations are also solid but the entire game is not what I would expect from NetEnt. Perhaps my expectations are too high regarding this developer but it proved me many times with many other products that what they’re capable of making real great video slot is truly respectable and I admire that ability but this is what I miss here much that nothing can amaze me and there’s really nothing I could really love here. That’s why Wild Water is not among the group of video slot what I consider as real good and for me this game is just barely reaching the average level and from NetEnt this is simple not enough.

Wild Water slot it is interesting and great slot which was released this year by my favorite online games creator - Net entertainment. Has 20 paylines, and interesting features which makes both main game and freespins features interseting.

There is great animations and sounds, specially when win is completed and nice voice saying well done and other things to me, love such kind of things in online slots, not only usual sounds. In main game there is two features, it is depends from the pictures placing. Will not describe it further as it is not very interesting, but you actually can have good payout from this features, in case of lucky streak of it. Of course most interesting feature here is freespins, you need 3 or more scatters. Now fun really come in this place, because all wilds that appear will expand. This of course add awesome win potential, but believe me that during freespins it is not so easy to get many wilds.

My best landing of wilds was 3 wilds on first 3 reels. Unfortunately I did not remember my exact payout, but it was not very big, because other symbols was low and did not match each other. I think 4 wilds +surfer - and it is already very big win.

Usually I play this slot till freespins feature and then living, because I found that after playing it some time - I am become tired and lose interest to it.

What I did not like? Main game is a bit annoying, specially when feature did not come for a long time. Payouts are also not good, only one good paying symbol, and it is not stacked, a bit sad... Also wilds appear much more less than during main game, and it is also very sad part of this slot. Everything else is OK here, but this thing that I did not like not very good.

When this slot appeared for the first time, I wasn’t so interested about it, for me it was just another slot game from NetEnt!
But I saw that a lot of people are talking about it and I said that its time to try it and to see if it deserves to be played more often and for wagering purposes!

Obviously, I played it first time with free spins, from Sportingbet casino, 10 free spins! From this free spins I didn’t won a lot of money because I didn’t caught the free spins feature or the surfs up bonus not to talk about the surf team bonus!
Regarding the bonuses that this slot have, I didn’t managed to catch any of them so far!I just know that the surfs up bonus pays 20x the current bet and the surf team bonus 200x the current bet!

About the free spins feature I have to say that it is an interesting feature but like the bonus game, is very hard to catch!
When I played at Unibet Casino with my own money, 20 euro, I caught only one time the free spins feature and I won only 12 euro on the minimum bet of 0.20 euro!
Besides this features, the game has good moments when pays very well even on the lowest bet and I think that it is a great thing!

It is a 5-reel slot, with 20 paylines, a minimum bet of 0.20 euro and in my opinion it has very nice graphics, a good story and good features!

I will try to rate this slot from my own experience even if I played it only a couple of times!
For the graphics and characters I will give a 9, for the good payout rate and features like free spins, wild and bonus games another 9!
Overall it is a good slot game from NetEnt but very hard to catch the nice features!

If you are a member of the AskGamblers forum you know that when this slot first came out I did not like it one bit. It's not your average slot from Net Ent. To start off with all, well not all, but most of the symbols in the base game and during free spins are stacked symbols. Now I am not one for change, and stacked symbols on the main spins just confuses me so to even start with I had bad instincts about this slot so it was always going to take a lot for me to like this game. But I am pleased to tell you after many months since its release I have started to like it! I don't love it but I like it, which is better than not liking it right?

There is a feature in this slot where you can win x 200 your bet and this is one of the main reasons I continue to play this slot, I just really want this feature. This feature and the win is activated if you can get five stacked symbols on your scree of the same character. I only play this slot at the minimum bet of 20p, so even if I do ever get this feature at x 200 my bet I am looking at winning £40. Okay, so £40 is nothing to fall off your seat for, but forty quid is forty quid! For those of you who can afford to bet bigger, then this feature can really help your balance. Don't expect this feature to come in a lot though because it really is few and far between unfortunately.

There is another feature you can get where you can get five mixed stacked symbols on your screen, this will award you x 20 your bet. So on a 20p spin it pays £4. Like I said I do like this game, it's not my favourite but well worth a few quid if you haven't played it before.

One of the newer games from Net Entertainment, Wild Water is pleasing to the eye with its nice graphics and sexy ladies, but the 60s rapping of that guy certainly doesn’t sound so good to my ears. Give me some good old nice 60s music and I would have loved this game more! Also, why given the title Wild Water beats me, because it would have suited a river scenario better. A beach scenario would have been more aptly name, like Wild Beach so something like that, but that’s not really relevant I guess. It’s the designers’ prerogative to name their game with whatever name they like. Ah well, still 1 star down.

Is the paytable any good? Not to me. All symbols have low win values, except for the highest paying symbol of the Golden Surfer (2000x line bet). The Wilds are blanks and 5 surfer scatters only pay 60x total bet. Not good at all. Then there’s the Surf’s Up Bonus of 20x total bet, which is still low, and the Surf Team Bonus of 200x total bet, which is much better. As a low paytable affects the overall win payouts of Wild Water, I have to give it 2 stars down.

Luckily enough, the free spins cover back most of the paytable weaknesses. So far, the free spins that I got all paid reasonably well, with wins from 20x to 60x total bet amount. I’ve had better Super Mega Wins but those cannot be considered, because I was playing in the fun mode. Why does all the big lovely wins have to happen in the fun mode only? I can’t get them when playing with real money. The same goes for the two Surf’s Up and Surf Team Bonuses. Perhaps not the time yet for me, but the chances are definitely there. 1 star up.

Game wise, as strange as it may sound, the game play was rather good! There’s plenty of friendly sharks around, which don’t go eating up our surfer friends, instead, dishing out lovely payouts. Nice! The 3 surfer scatters are pretty good too, managing to pop onto the reels quite often (nice surfing there guys), unlike that elusive Golden Surfer, which seem to prefer appearing in ones or twos only. Never had 3 of them as yet. Still, 1 star up.

Overall, a nice game to play, with plenty of action from the surfer on the waves, and plenty of sharks popping out of the water to say hello. Yet another super new game from NetEnt.

Well, I did not believe it when I found that I spent more than an hour and a half playing this slot. Wild Water has 20 lines and can be found in NetEnt casinos. I do I love too much NetEnt slots because they use to pay less, but this slot made me a surprise.

The theme of the slot is the Wild Water Surf and this is the only slot that has only five symbols in total (except maybe the Scatter, the Wild and a special high paying symbol). The five symbols each represent a surfer and each occupies a full reel. After every spin the 5 surfers can occupy the entire reel or only a part of the symbol can be seen. Because of this invention playing the slot is beautiful, with every spin you wait that all the 5 reels will be entirely filled each by a single surfer. This rarely happens but when it happens the wins are high, for any 5 surfers the payout is 20x and if all 5 surfers are present the payout is 200x. Sometimes, yet very rarely (once about 50-100 spins) you will have “Big Win” whose value is here about 4 Euro .

The game is fast, in an hour and a half I have played probably over 500 spins. The beauty is that even though the wins are not skyrocketing, yet with luck, if you manage to enter in the Free Spins round a few times, you will get something extra on the overall. Minimum number of Free Spins awarded is 10 and in this round the Wild symbols are expandable over the entire reel. Because of this, almost always you will go out with some handsome gains from this round (3-12 Euro in total for minimum bet 20 cents).

Although there are also some negative sides (see comments below) the slot is nice mainly because of new ideas brought by playing with just five symbols.

At some moments the Free Spins round becomes difficult to access . The first time I entered this round I played first over 250 spins. However the second time this round was triggered after only 25 spins. Also, about 60-70 % of the payouts here are still lower than the total bet and some bigger wins would increase the player satisfaction.
Although the theme is nice the graphical drawings of the 5 surfers seem to lack talent (it is like the surfers were drawn with crayons on paper).

Here is another one new slot from netent, and i am try this game few times , so have some thoughts and i will share it. When slot just came out, i get bunch of free spins at different casinos, and even was able to make withdrawal from this free spins, that was on casino luck, and i just get 50$ in profit. This is always nice to get some free money, and i decide to spend this 50$ in guts casino to play this game.

Graphic is beauty, yes, but i do not like the theme of the slot. Also, i am not sure about sounds, it can be much more better. Even so, i have a feeling while playing this slot that i am in 70 or 80 years of XX century, i am not sure why i get such feeling. That is what about eye candy, now let talk about slot. Base game is interesting, and can pay some wins, also if you get 5 different reels of this surfers, this is bonus win of 200 x total bet. Not the worst thing to get i guess. All symbols pay low amount of money, except one, which is not staked. I managed to get only 3 of them once, and i guess it is hard to get this. To get free spins, player need hit at least 3 scatters, often thing in online slotting. Free spins provides expanded wilds, and that is where all fun in this slot start. There is great potential of hitting big, and for all wilds payout should be really big, but i can not say how big, because best i get is is two wild reels.

Conclusion. Good and interesting slot from netent, and it can give some nice wins, but i just did not like it because i did not like oceans, never use surf, so this is totally not my theme. For other players i think this can be good choice to play this slot.

Wild Water is a relatively new 60’s surfer themed 20 payline video slot. If you are regularly on ask gamblers, you may have noticed I had some pretty strong views of how awful I thought this slot was, however after playing it for a good length of time between bets of 20p-40p. The game did payout! I hit an over 200x win on free spins at two completely separate casinos!

Wild water has different stacked surfers as symbols as you’d expect. It also features a scatter symbol, a golden surfer silhouette symbol and a wild shark symbol (this expands during the free spins). Top symbol being the golden silhouette this pays out 2000x your line bet(just imagine getting this with expanding wilds in free spins!). The highest paid surfer is the guy in red shorts he pays you up to 500x line bet lowest being 75x for the light blue lady surfer.

If you are lucky enough to get 3 or more scatters you win free spins. The scatters do not pay but you can win up to a whopping 60 free spins for 5 of them! For 4 scatters 20 free spins and for 3 scatters 15 free spins. The free spins bonus is the reason my opinion has changed. After a long session of nothing but small wins and maybe the odd £3-5 quite big hit…the free spins came and they paid in spades! On 3rd spin in I hit some insane combo with 3 expanding wilds and great symbols this paid £47.80 in one spin at 20p bet! Now considering I had started with 20-something balance this is decent and there is a good argument for using this game to complete wagering requirements.

This is not all this slot has to reward players though! Players can also land a surf team bonus by lining up all 5 surfers across the 5 reels this pays out a magnificent 200x total bet! With betting levels from 20p all the way up to a monster £100 a spin whatever you bet when you get this you win lots! There is also a mini version called the surfs up bonus which pays out 20x total bet you can get this by lining up any combination of the 5 surfers(I have had it twice so far).

In summary it seems I judged this video slot without giving it a proper go, it is no Creature from the black lagoon or Dead or Alive but it certainly isn’t as bad as I thought!

Here’s my PrOs and cons of Wild Water!

Pros

Nice graphics smooth game play and ability to quick spin the slot.

Up to 60 free spins can be won!

Expanding wilds within free spins!

Surf team and Surfs up bonus great especially if your funds are depleting!

Consistent wins most of the time.

Cons

Can go cold but it did redeem itself for me twice.

Overall it is a good video slot and worth trying just bet according to your bankroll and you should be fine!

I give Wild Water 7/10

Bigdk88

Cons

No multiplier during free spins.

Can take lengthy time period to hit free spins but they are usually worth waiting on!

Can go cold but it did redeem itself for me twice.

No multiplier during free spins.

If I could break an online slot with a hammer, then I would most definitely choose for Wild Water. This crappy slot is a bankroll swallower first class, which I wish I never invested any deposits in. I had my fair share of play on this slot, and they were all quiet brief since it took ages to trigger the free spins.

In short, lots of dead spins, little or no playtime and a quite annoying slot at that as well.
You can't be mistaken more when you have the perception of this game being some cool surfer type of slot with massive potential.

While I appreciate many older NetEnt titles, I'm not liking the direction NetEnt is going with their new selection of slots, and Wild Water is a perfect example of it. Wild Water consists of 20 paylines and 5 reels. It also contains scatters, expanding wilds (only during free spins), scatters and two base game bonus features.

The theme is inspired by lots of cool surfers who get their groove on at the beach riding the waves in a 60's era. They will shout various phrases during wins like "Cowabunga" and "Empty tank brah" or some stuff like that.

When you're losing quick in a nasty way, it really gets annoying unfortunately. Most of the symbols of this game are stacked, but with NetEnt new features most often mean nothing since the payout will be ridiculously low.

This is the case with Wild Water as well. It does offer two special bonus features in the base game though, where you can win 20x bet size and 200x bet size.

The 20x bet size win is yours when you manage to land the stacked symbols in full form on all reels. The 200x bet size bonus win is yours when you manage 5 different stacked symbols on all reels. This must be incredible difficult to achieve. I had the 20x bonus win like twice, but that doesn't really add up.

I've managed to win trigger the free spins like twice in maybe 2000 spins. Ridicolous how long I had to wait each time for a poor payout of only 10x and 50x bet size. You need 3, 4 or 5 scatters to trigger 15, 30 or 60 free spins. During the free spins if the wilds appear, they will automatically expand.

So I guess this game has some huge potential, but it been a major disappointing to me. Therefore I won't recommend this game to anyone.

Lots of dead spins and marginal wins. Took me 2000 spins to have two features. I won't play this game again.

This game launched by the NetEnt games,NetEnt games are really nice but at this time it surprise and i totally said its not a nice game to play.The background of the game are a picture of beach which are nice feature in the game and in the game long picture slots are present.In this game 20 payline and 5 reel are presented.

In this game when if you have 3 scatter than you win 15 free spin,4 scatter you win 40 scatter and 5 scatter you win 60 free spin this are well feature for win a free spin.In this game wind symbol are avail when you have wild symbol the your score are big expend,when you have lucky.In the game my luck are not good,i feel bad luck in the game,I plya 20 euroby 0.20 bet in the game and i win only 1 time and every other bet we lost it.Free spin in the game i like very much because without any bet you play the game.

My score expanding by the wild card,without the wild card your score are not very good level and i forget to tell about the sound of the game,the sound are not good as a name of the game .I scored this game 5.5/10
