Wicked Riches is a version of the Wizard of Oz slot game from Williams Interactive. This is a 30 payline 5 reel slot which for a theme ha the famous story about Dorothy and the Wizard of Oz. The slot has a vintage design and it reminds me of some old 5 reel slot game from land based casinos.
I tried this game for the first time playing on minimum bet and I can’t say that I was blown away from the base play wins. The wins are really small and my balance was going down fast. I think this is due to the poor paytable the game has. I got the Tornado feature a few times but only got small cash prizes. I didn’t manage to hit the cash prize plus bonus feature barn. I like the fact that the wild ravens comes pretty often. Here you get random wilds on the reels and if you are lucky you can have some nice win. In one feature I got 4-5 wilds and had a win of about 50 x bet. Still my balance was down and I was just losing money.
There is another feature in this game which is the free spins bonus. It is triggered when you get at least 3 bonus symbols. I have to say this was really hard to get. The first time I played the game I think I went 300 spins before I won the feature. I got 8 free spins and you get a random multiplier on the wins you have. I usually get 5 or 6 x multiplier on a win so if you are lucky to have some nice line wins you can have a big win in the bonus game. Still usually you win about 30 x bet in the free spins bonus.
Overall this is not a game I would play to boost my balance unless you are lucky enough to hit a jackpot. The wins are too small and you usually just lose money.
