Wolf Cub Slot Review from NetEnt

Wolf Cub is the latest Net Entertainment online slot game. The game is set in a winterly forest with snow flakes falling down covering the paw prints of the wolf cub and his cartoon like gang who seem to be on a nightly adventure to find treasures and slot game bonuses.

Wolf Cub is a 5-reel, 3-row, 20-pay line (fixed) slot machine game with stacked slots symbols and only one type of Free Spins bonus round.

Slots Symbols of Wolf Cub

Low paying slots symbols are card symbols of slot hearts, clubs, spades and diamonds, all having the same payouts. The high paying slots symbols are represented by the Wolf Cub’s gang members owl, lynx, moose, bear and the wolf cub itself in ascending order.

Top paying symbol of slot is Wild in form of a wolf paw and Scatters are a full moon with the word scatter across with minimum three needed to trigger the Free Spins.

Free Spins of Wolf Cub

Having minimum three Scatter land anywhere on the reels will trigger the Free Spins. No coin win for any amount of scatters but an interesting new way of determining how many Free Spins will be given for the round with the maximum at a staggering 115 spins.

Once 3 – 5 scatters hit the screen the reels on which the scatters landed will turn again and once they stop each position will reveal a number of Free Spins that are then accumulated to display the total of Free Spins for the upcoming bonus round. Numbers are random but 115 Free Spins is the maximum a player can be awarded.

The Free Spins have no multiplier, nor can they be re-triggered and are played at the same bet level and coin value as the round that activated them.

Blizzard Feature of Wolf Cub

To spice up the bonus round Netent has given this slot a special game mechanism called Blizzard feature that could potentially deliver mega and super mega wins. Once a stack of symbols covers on reel one all matching symbols on the other reels will spread towards reel 1, thus filling up all spaces in the row between them and the matching symbols on reel 1 allowing for multiple line wins.

The most desirable of course is to hit a stack of Wilds on reel 1 and 5 as then it would cover the whole screen with Wilds paying 20x 5OAK and at 2,000 coins that converts to 2,000 x stake.

In the image below the owls landed stacked on reel 1 and one on reel 4. The Blizzard feature spreads then the owls to the front substituting all symbols of slot with owls and paying in the end 3x 4OAK owls.

Wolf Cub is medium variance with the bigger wins coming via the Blizzard feature within the Free Spins feature – overall, it looks great and has a fun feel to it. It’s another good addition from casino games provider NetEnt which will surely get you howling with delight if you get those all-important high value slots symbols with the Blizzard feature.
