Wilds from the Crypt Review

Developer Kalamba Games takes a break from the beloved Joker releases and makes a big switch in the genre with its new Wilds from the Crypt slot. Here, players are taken right to the graveyard to explore the ancient burials for hidden magical riches.

On the outside, the Wilds from the Crypt slot is just phenomenal. Kalamba Games has always been somewhat of an expert when it comes to design, and they’ve done their best to create a deep atmosphere and superb visuals of the game. Everything looks extremely polished and carefully crafted, so you feel highly immersed into the gameplay from the very moment you load in. The sounds add up to the theme significantly, with the music and effects capturing the essential mystic spooky vibe.

The game plays out across a 6x4 reel setup, producing 40 fixed win lines, and players drop in by settings bets from £0.28 to £100 per spin. However, the betting of Wilds from the Crypt actually deserves a special mention. True to Kalamba’s style, the slot sports different HyperBet levels, which affect the features, which we’ll cover shortly in the corresponding section of the review, as well as the return value.

At levels 1, 2, and 3, the RTP is 96.31%, 96.48%, and 96.52% respectively.

The volatility tends to the high side of the spectrum, so don’t expect to get your returns too often. Yet, this means the payouts should be quite sizeable, as there’s great risk involved. The maximum win capability of the Wilds from the Crypt slot is impressive indeed, as you can hope for rewards up to 20,000x the stake.

Three or more matching symbols create winning combinations when landing adjacently on the reels starting from the leftmost. 10 pay symbols are included: classic A-9 royals on the lower side, and four character symbols on the higher. All symbols can appear stacked on the reels, which produces bigger winning opportunities.

Plus, several different Wilds are available as well, covered below.

Wilds from the Crypt Slot Features

During the base game, there are two kinds of Wilds, regular ones and Multiplier Wilds. Both substitute for any of the regulars in winning combos, but the latter also increases the payouts by the shown multiplier value, which depends on the chosen HyperBet level. At levels 1, 2, and 3, the multiplier is 1x, 2x, and 3x respectively.

The slot utilizes the Lucky Loops feature, first introduced back in 2020 in the Sky Hunters slot. The base game plays in a cycle of 10 spins, during which you need to collect as many potion symbols as possible. On the 10th spin, the Wilds from the Crypt feature comes into play, unleashing Expanded Multiplier Wild symbols over the reels, with the number of extra Wilds depending on the number of collected Accumulation symbols, as follows:

• 3 Accumulation Symbols - adds one Expanded Multiplier Wild to a random reel.
• 6 Accumulation Symbols - adds two Expanded Multiplier Wilds to random reel.
• 9 Accumulation Symbols - adds three Expanded Multiplier Wilds to random reel.

Additionally, regular Wild symbols turn into Expanding Wilds during the Wilds from the Crypt feature, but without a multiplier value. After the 10th spin, the accumulation meter is reset, and the collection process starts over.

Look out for Book symbols, which are available on the four middle reels during the base game. They are Scatters, and when 3 or more appear simultaneously, the Free Spins feature is activated.

In the free games, regular Wilds always expand to cover the reels entirely, and Multiplier Wilds are Sticky, remaining held in position for the remainder of the feature. With each spin, the multiplier value on the sticky Wilds increases by +1x.

The number of awarded free spins and the starting Wild Multiplier values depend on the HyperBet level, as follows:

• HyperBet Level 1 - awards 6 free spins with a starting Multiplier of 1x, growing up to a maximum of 6x.
• HyperBet Level 2 - awards 8 free spins with a starting Multiplier of 2x, growing up to a maximum of 8x.
• HyperBet Level 3 - awards 10 free spins with a starting Multiplier of 3x, growing up to a maximum of 10x.

In the Free Spins, expanding Wild symbols are available only on reels 1 and 6, while Sticky Multiplier Wilds can land anywhere on the four middle reels. Players can win additional free games by landing Scatter symbols on reels 1 or 6, which awards +1 extra spin.
