The fact that Bally are releasing a game based on Wacky Races mainly raises the question, how has someone not created a Wacky Races slot before?The hugely popular cartoon, which still enjoys something of a cult following in the modern world, is the perfect theme to take for a slot game, and it’s surprising it’s taken this long. However, it’s hear now, and it’s due for release in March (2018).March looks to be quite a month for Scientific Games, the brand behind Bally, as another of their operators, Barcrest, is releasing the newest slot in the Rainbow Riches series, Rainbow Riches Fortune Favour, in the same month, but it’s Wacky Races that has really caught our attention.
What we know
Bally are yet to have released a trailer or video to show us what we can expect from this new slot, but there’s a lot of photos that have been released, alongside a little information, and we can get a lot from that.The first thing to pay attention to is that the slot is set in a portrait fashion, making it a mobile-first slot, something which is still rare despite the size of the constantly growing mobile gaming market.With five reels and 40 paylines, Wacky Races will have a house edge of 96.3% and be playable from 50p to £75 a spin on all compatible desktop, mobile, and tablet devices.There are four jackpots in the game, which vary in size depending on the wager amount, and extra bet options can give better bonuses.The racing bonus triggers one of five features, each based around a different competitor in the Wacky Races, including Professor Pats who triggers one of the four jackpots, and Creepy Coupe who delivers ten free spins with extra wilds.We are really excited about this upcoming slot, and you should be too!
