The Wolf’s Bane Rules

The result of lycanthropy might be cool, but the process of turning into a wolf is extremely excruciating. This game illustrates this transformation with a Base Game Wild and 3 other bonus round wilds.

Shown by the Base Game Wild is the very first step of the transformation process where your hands turn into the clawed hands of a beast. On top of having a potential of up to 25X, the base game wild acts as any other symbol except for the pick-and-click symbol & scatter. On to the next stage, your eyes change color to red (Expanding Wild), and a few moments later develop into the light-reflecting yellow orbs of a predator (X2 Multiplier Wild). Finally, your transformation into a giant hairy beast is complete (Spreading Wild).

Just as you are out for blood, 5 humans are too. They represent the better side of the paytable and include a soldier with a pistol (up to 25X), a clairvoyant with a hunting light (up to 15X), a gravedigger (up to 10X), a nurse with a jar of wolf’s bane (up to 10x), and a man with a crossbow (pick-and-click symbol). If you match 3 pick-and-click symbols on reels 1, 3, and 5, you will be prompted to click on one of them to reveal a reward of up to 50X. As usual, card suits are the low-value icons with a payout value of up to 5X.

Free Spins Bonus Round

Matching 3, 4, & 5 full moon symbols (scatters) awards you 10, 20, and 30 free spins respectively. Before the free spins session starts, one of the bonus round wilds will be selected at random to act as the active wild on reels 1-3. Each of them has a special advantage with the Expanding Wilds extending to cover an entire reel, the Spreading Wild turning 1 additional symbol into a wild, and wins triggered by the X2 Multiplier Wilds being multiplied by 2.

An Overlay Wild will also appear at random on the spaces without an active wild resulting in more wins.

Conclusion

For those who have long been fascinated with werewolves, you are going to love playing Wolf’s Bane. It features a couple of life-like werewolf symbols that are illuminated by the full moon, as well as fierce growls that perfectly capture the blood-curdling horror you are about to unleash. NetEnt has outdone themselves this time, especially considering that haven’t seen a good horror-themed slot since Vampires vs Wolves.

The game’s mechanics also see you sink your claws into sensational wins thanks to Expanding Wilds, Multiplier Wilds, and Spreading Wilds. You might just as well find yourself howling at the moon past Halloween- if you have the endurance of a werewolf, that is!
