Puffer Goes Wild - Review, Demo Play, Payout, Free Spins & Bonuses

Introduction

Puffer Goes Wild from Plank Gaming is based on the underwater world in a cute cartoon style. A gloriously simple and charming game with 178 paylines, an RTP of 96.12% and medium volatility, the game has an exciting respin bonus feature with an expanding wild that can expand up to 4x4 and therefore take over most of the reels.

Game Theme & Storyline

Puffer’s story takes us under the waves and is told in a delightfully bright and vibrant cartoon style. Puffer and his hapless friends are simply trying to go about their lives whilst the threat of bad guy Sharky is ever present. The reels are set just above the seabed, deep within the ocean. Marine plants are located either side of the reels. A chest of long-lost treasure is also in view. The colour theme is blue with pops of pink, green, orange and blue. An upbeat calypso soundtrack accompanies the game.

The lower-scoring symbols in this slot game are a series of ancient coins, worn from hundreds of years of being abandoned underwater. The higher-scoring symbols are a series of bright and cute fish, friends of Puffer, one of whom has a striking resemblance to Nemo.

Payout & Volatility

RTP: 96.12%

Volatility: Medium

The game has a generous and above average RTP of 96.12%, which represents the overall payout over time and is not a guarantee of winnings. It also has medium volatility, which is a good or bad thing depending on your outlook. Medium volatility is a good balance between high-risk, high-volatility games and low-risk, low-volatility games, so it should suit most types of player.

Puffer Goes Wild Bonus Features

Wild Symbol

A bubble Wild substitutes for all symbols, appearing only on Reels 2, 3 and 4. The Shark Wild appears on Reel 1, and the Puffer Wild appears only on Reel 5.

Puffer Goes Wild Re-Spins

This thrilling re-spins bonus round is triggered when Puffer and Sharky both appear on the reels at the same time (on Reels 1 and 5 respectively). Puffer will swim one reel from right to left across the reels, warding off Sharky every time he lands by expanding in size. Puffer continues to move until he reaches Reel 1 on the left hand side, which means a total of four respins. If he happens to encounter Sharky on every spin, Puffer can potentially grow as big as 4x4. Both the Puffer and Sharky Wild symbols substitute for all other symbols during the feature.
