Yggdrasil have swiftly become one of those developers that you simply can’t ignore when a new slot is announced, which is why the release of Wolf Hunters made us all stand up and take notice.Combining hunters and werewolves to create a slot not dissimilar in tone to many successful titles of the past, can Wolf Hunters stand out from the pack?
About the slot
With five reels and 20 fixed paylines, Wolf Hunters is playable from 20p to £100 a spin on all compatible desktop, mobile, and tablet devices.Design wise, this medium to high variance slot is the answer to the question “what would happen if you through Vikings Go Berzerk at Immortal Romance, really hard?”Not the most original looking slot from the popular developer, Wolf Hunters even borders on feeling slightly lazy at times.However, that doesn’t mean this slot isn’t attractive, it looks great, with the werewolf appearing on the reels amongst themed imagery, and card suits acting as the lower values, while the male and female hunter characters stand proud at either side of the reels.
Gameplay
The werewolf is the most lucrative symbol here, and also triggers a feature when it lands. Upon arrival on the reels, one of the hunters will attempt to hit the wolf, if they make it, the wolf turns wild and sticks to the reels for a respin.Hit the wolf enough times to take all of its life total away, and you will trigger the Slayer Free Spins round.There are three free spins features in total, Slayer spins which offers extra wilds, Rage Free spins which upgrades high value symbols, and traditional free spins triggered by two or more scatter symbols, there’s also upgrades and modifiers that can be added to the spins.The gameplay feels complex at first here, but take some time, and Wolf Hunter starts to make sense, and can lead to some nice wins if you’re lucky!
