A Fistful of Wilds Review

A Fistful of Wilds is a new flashy slot from developer Greentube that yet again takes players on a reel adventure to the Old West. Anyway, as the game’s title implies, it’s all about the Wilds here, which are capable of delivering payouts up to 9,000x your bet.

Theme-wise, there’s nothing we haven’t seen in the Western genre, but it’s worth noting that the design team did a great job and the A Fistful of Wilds slot looks just terrific. The graphics are superb and everything is incredibly detailed, which immerses you into the action. A classy Wild West soundtrack plays whilst you spin the reels, which fits the gameplay perfectly and adds a final touch to the general ambiance.

Dominating the view is a standard 5x3 reel set producing 30 ways to play on each spin. More than that, all symbols pay both ways, from left to right and from right to left. Above the reels are wanted posters and wooden arrow signs. Those aren’t just cosmetic but indicate current bonuses and your progress, though, we’ll cover it in the features section.

To start playing, bets of at least $0.2 are required, while the highest stake is $200, so there are enough options for both high-rollers and casual players.

A Fistful of Wilds is powered by a medium volatile math model, so wins should occur pretty often. However, the RTP is a little disappointing, being lower than average at 95.2%. The maximum available win is 9,000x the stake, which is decent considering the risk involved.

The symbol collection includes 10 regular symbols that are split into three categories. The lower section is made up of classic A-J royals, then go sheriff hats and badges. The premium symbol lot includes in ascending order a pistol, sheriff, cowboy, and the game’s logo.

Five-of-a-kind low symbol wins are worth 1x your bet, while mid symbols pay 5x your bet. The higher-paying ones in turn award from 7.5x to 15x the stake. There’s also a Wild symbol included, which can appear anywhere on the reels and substitute for any other regular symbol.

A Fistful of Wilds Slot Features

Central to the gameplay is the Cascading Wins feature, which removes winning symbols from the reels. Then, new ones drop down to fill the gaps. The cascades continue until there are no more winning combinations in view.

The cascading feature is linked to the Trail and Wins feature. Remember the posters and signs above the reels. On each spin, a Wanted poster displays the current trail award, which will be awarded if the player completes the trail. The arrows in turn indicate the number of steps - cascades - to complete the trail.

The trail length alters on each spin much like the trail award, varying between 2 to 5 steps.

• Wild Shot - adds a random number of Wilds to the reels.
• Wild Whip - adds a random number of Wilds to the reels whilst they are spinning.
• Wild Dreams - a random symbol is chosen, and all its instances on the reels will turn into Wilds.
• Wild Dynamite - a colossal Wild symbol is added to the reels, up to 4x4 in size.

All bonuses are repeatable, which means they can trigger multiple times if your winning streak goes on. Players can also win Free Spins via the trail feature. Once triggered, players will receive 5 free games, during which all symbols appear stacked on the reels. Finally, the trail can be reduced during the free games by the cowboy shooting one or more positions whilst the reels are spinning.

Last but not least is the Gamble feature. Whenever you score a win, you can gamble it for a chance to double the amount in a Card Guess mini-game. However, should you make a wrong move, all your winnings will be lost.

Review Summary

In the end, A Fistful of Wilds is decent and is leaning towards unmissable for those into the cowboys.

The design is great, but the gameplay is the main reason why players might feel drawn to spin the reels on it. The features are fire, as you have 4 different modifiers during the base game in addition to cascades, which means any spin can lead to wholesome payouts.
