Wild Wild Horses Demo Slot - Review for Canadians, Demo Play & Payout Info

Introduction

StakeLogic demo slots are common to many jurisdictions in online gaming. Originally headquartered in the Netherlands but now based in Malta, the company was established in 2014 as a subsidiary of Novomatic, the long-established industry leader. They are committed to responsible gaming within regulated markets. While you can usually count on Stakelogic for fairness and integrity, playing any games first in the form of demo slots is always recommended as it gives you a chance to test the enjoyment factor at no financial risk. Wild Wild Horses is a game in the same area as Wild Horses - not surprisingly - and Ainsworth’s Mustang Money slot: horses in the wilds of America.

Wild Wild Horses uses a 5x4 grid with 25 paylines. The lines are fixed and the minimum bet size is 0.25 while the maximum is 25.00. There are 8 regular symbols: dark horse, white horse, Palomino, cream horse and the four highest value playing cards. The wild symbol is a horsehoe, the scatter is a horse silhouetted against the sun and the bonus symbol is a treasure chest.

Theme, graphics and soundtrack

The background image of the prairie with the waving grasses in the foreground is easy on the eye and very serene. Look closely and you’ll see clouds shaped like galloping horses. The grid is constructed ranch-style out of wood, with a lasso and a horseshoe hanging on it for decoration. The images of the horses are highly idealised but well rendered. The animation is limited but adequate, while the soundtrack is a slightly shapeless piece that sounds more like incidental movie music than a memorable theme.

Wild Wild Horses RTP and variance

Wild Wild Horses has an RTP of 95.7 per cent which only slightly below average. The variance is classed by the makers as high.

How to play Wild Wild Horses

1. To select your bet you can adjust the Bet figure using the plus and minus signs or you can click on the wheel symbol to the left of the grid to open all the bet options. Here you can select the maximum bet or any of the options.
2. In the bet menu you can also switch on the Super Stake feature. This doubles whatever bet you have chosen but it also means you get more chance of hitting big wins. On a losing spin with 2 scatter symbols the 2 scatters will transform into random regular symbols, potentially forming a winning combination.
3. If you’d like to use automatic play click on the small play button at the bottom left of the grid. In the menu that opens you can choose various different numbers of spins or set it running indefinitely. You can set it to stop when you trigger a bonus and when you reach a specified loss limit or single win limit. You can also switch on turbo spin.
4. Turbo spin can also be controlled separately using the fast forward button.
5. Click the large spin button or press the space bar to start playing. Click or press again to stop the reels whenever you choose or let them continue until the spin is complete.
6. Wild symbols substitute for all symbols except scatters and treasure chest.
7. Only the highest winning combination per line will pay. Wins on different paylines are added together. Free spins cannot be retriggered.
8. We support safe gambling initiatives like BeGambleAware. We encourage you always to play responsibly and if you are betting money please do not bet more than you can afford to lose. You can use the time-out and self-exclusion features to moderate your game. Stop playing when the game stops being fun.

Wild Wild Horses bonus features

Scatter Symbols

If you land 3 or more scatter symbols during the base game you will be awarded free spins. 3 scatters award 8 free spins, 4 award 16 and 5 award 24. All wild symbols are sticky during the free spins round and regular symbols may transform into sticky wilds. Free spins can also be triggered by the treasure chest symbol in the base game.

Treasure Chest

This symbol lands only on the 5th reel and may carry a prize award between 0.50 and 10.00. In the base game it can activate between 8 and 12 free spins. During the free spins round it can retrigger 2, 3 or 4 free spins, or it can fill the 1st, 2nd, 3rd or 4th reel with a wild column, in which case the whole column is filled with wild symbols that will be sticky.

Special One

When the 2 scatter symbols transform into the same symbol during the super stake feature these and all matching symbols plus any wilds will transform into sticky wild symbols. You will receive respins until no new wild symbols land on the reels.

Wild Wild Horses review: our verdict

This is an unspectacular game with very limited extra features. There is nothing to build tension so you have to content yourself with the fairly routine mechanics. RTP and payouts are low, so there isn’t a great deal to recommend it. The super stake sounds interesting but is not as generous as it sounds. Just about OK.
