Wild Link Riches Review

SpinPlay has seen decent success with their Wild Link series, and Wild Link Riches is the first Irish Luck installment. It follows in the footsteps of games like Wild Link Zeus, Wild Link Cleopatra, and Wild Link Frenzy, and the Wild Link feature triggers from an expanded wild on reel 1 in this game. The rest of the grid expands as usual, and this is how you can collect both cash prize and jackpot symbols.

The 5x3 default grid is placed in a pot of gold where the rainbow ends, and Wild Link Riches comes with a charming audiovisual presentation that is typical for this genre. You can win jackpots also in the randomly triggered pick bonus game, and every 4th Wild Link trigger upgrades the bonus round to the next multiplier level. It also retriggers the feature, and the overall max win is 5,000x your stake.

Wild Link Riches Slot Features

The premium symbols pay between 3 and 5 x your stake for 5 of a kind wins, and both Wild symbols come with the core function of substituting for pay symbols to help complete and/or improve line wins. The regular 4-leaf clover wild in rainbow colors can appear on reels 2 to 5 only, and the Pot of Gold Wild can land only on reel 1. This second wild expands to cover the full reel when it appears, and this triggers the Wild Link Feature.

The Wild Link Feature starts as reel 1 has been turned into a full reel wild, and reels 2 to 5 will then expand to get up to 3 additional rows.

This is true for the base game at least, as they can expand by up to 6 extra rows in the bonus round. This gives you extra paylines as well, and any prize or jackpot symbol in view pays its value instantly during this feature.

The Pick Feature triggers at random times when a prize symbol is present, and it can trigger at the end of a base game spin or at the end of the Wild Link Feature. Each pick reveals a jackpot symbol, and you get the corresponding prize when you’ve matched up 3 jackpot symbols. These are the Mini, Minor, Major, or Mega jackpots, and they pay 20x, 50x, 500x, or 5,000x your stake, respectively.

You need 3 horseshoe scatter symbols anywhere in view to trigger the Bonus Round, and this gives you 10 free spins. The Pot of Gold Wild is collected each time the Wild Link Feature triggers in the bonus round, and you get 10 extra spins and a multiplier increase for every 4 pot of gold wilds collected.

The multiplier levels are x2, x3, and x10, and the feature can be retriggered 3 times via this system.

The Bonus Buy feature is available in some jurisdictions, but not in the UK for sure. Purchasing it will set you back 110x your stake, and you get between 2 and 5 pots of gold wilds collected from the get-go. If you get 4-5 pots of gold wilds, you get 20 free spins with an x2 starting win multiplier. You can also pay 50x your stake to upgrade to this “Epic” Bonus Round when you trigger it organically by landing 3 scatters.

Review Summary

We have followed the Wild Link range with keen interest so far, and the Irish Luck installment was bound to come sooner or later. Wild Link Riches revolves around the Wild Link features, which hardly surprises anyone, and it’s another entertaining release in the series. The expanded grid comes with instant prizes and jackpots, and the grid can expand even more in the bonus round. This adds to the excitement, as you’ll be able to collect even more instant prizes.

The Pick Feature comes about once in a while as well, and you’re guaranteed to land one of the jackpots when it triggers. The Wild Link Feature seems to trigger more often in the bonus round, and this is good since you need to collect as many pot of gold wilds as possible.

This is how you upgrade the win multiplier, and it also retriggers the feature. The 5,000x potential is achievable in several different ways, and Wild Link Riches is a charming and entertaining release in the popular Irish Luck genre.
