Wild Chicago Review

BGAMING have already served us plenty of compact online slots, and the Wild Chicago online slot, which they launched in June 2023, seems to follow that trend. Sure, things aren’t always particularly fresh when it comes to BGAMING slots, but they sure are classy and slick. As always, let’s start with the game’s playing field, which is classic and which offers 5 reels, 3 rows and 10 paylines.

The theme of Wild Chicago is quite classic in the sense that it’s all about a certain mafia ring, but the nice touch here is that all the characters are actually animals, which adds a bit to the game’s glamour. The designs are polished and fine, so we’re quite happy with how the package looks as a whole.

Alright, but what about Wild Chicago’s math model. Well, its volatility level is high, and its hit frequency clocks in at 25.64%. In other words, you’ll get a win every 4 spins or so. The most you can win in one go is 4,684x your bet, and you can enjoy the action for stakes between £0.10 and £100 per spin.

That should please the vast majority of players, and we also have to praise BGAMING for throwing in a high theoretical RTP that stands at 97.10%.

Wild Chicago Slot Features

There are as many as 12 pay symbols in Wild Chicago, and they are divided into three categories. First, there are six low-paying symbols with your usual card ranks from Nines to Aces. Nines pay out even in sets of two, and you can get up to 12.5x your stake for a full set of Kings or Aces. Then, there are three mid-paying symbols with whiskeys, guns, and pig characters.

These symbols are worth up to 40x your bet for a full set. Finally, there are two high-paying symbols with snake and lion characters. These pay out even in sets of two, and a five-of-a-kind combination of these symbols is worth as much as 75x your stake!

Looking at the slot’s specials, there are Crocodile Wilds and Safe Scatters. Crocodile Wilds can substitute for any of the pay symbols in winning combos, and they are worth 900x your stake for a full set. Moreover, they work as Multiplier Wilds, doubling all wins in which they work as substitutes!

Wild Chicago Slot – Free Spins Feature

If you land 3 or more Safe Scatters anywhere on the playing field, you’ll trigger the Free Spins feature with 15 free spins. Retriggers are possible, with each adding 15 extra free spins to your total tally. The most important detail, however, is that all wins that you achieve during the feature are automatically tripled!

You can then also use the Buy Bonus option and just purchase the Free Spins feature outright for 100x your bet. Note that this option even comes with a slightly higher theoretical RTP of 97.26%, so it’s not a bad deal at all!

Review Summary

To sum things up, Wild Chicago is by no means an original package from the gameplay point of view, but it’s so incredibly solid that we find it hard to criticize it.

After all, it’s impossible to be harsh on games that have a theoretical RTP of 97.10%!
