Wolf Gold Ultimate

Wolf Gold Ultimate returns to the North American wilderness with a considerably more ambitious interpretation of the Money Respin formula that defined the original Wolf Gold. Pragmatic Play keeps the familiar five reel, three row layout and 25 fixed paylines, but the bonus can now expand across four separate grids containing as many as 50 cash positions. Money symbols, fixed jackpots and special Collect, Plus Cash and Multiplier symbols give the feature several ways to develop before the final payout is calculated. Wolf Gold Ultimate has medium volatility, an RTP of up to 96.57 percent and a maximum win of 5,000 times the bet. Winning combinations are formed by landing at least three matching symbols on consecutive reels from left to right, beginning with reel one. Card ranks from Jack through Ace occupy the lower section of the paytable, while mountain lions, mustangs, eagles and buffaloes provide the premium prizes. The buffalo is the most valuable regular symbol and awards 20 times the total bet for five matching symbols. The wolf acts as the Wild and substitutes for every regular paying symbol, while also carrying its own premium payouts. Money symbols can appear on all five reels and display values of 0.4, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 10 or 15 times the bet. They can also reveal one of four fixed jackpot prizes. The Mini awards 20 times the bet, the Minor awards 50 times, the Major pays 100 times and the Grand awards 1,000 times. These Money values are central to the bonus rather than ordinary payline combinations. Landing at least six Money symbols anywhere on the grid triggers the Money Respin Feature with three respins. The regular reels disappear and are replaced by three separate five by three grids plus a fourth five by one grid. Only the first five by three grid begins active. Every Money symbol that lands becomes fixed in its position until the feature ends, while every newly collected Money symbol resets the respin counter to three. Collecting nine Money symbols across the first active grid unlocks the second five by three grid. Reaching 18 collected Money symbols across the first two grids opens the third, while reaching 32 across the first three grids unlocks the final five by one grid. Once opened, each additional grid creates more available positions for Money symbols and substantially increases the amount of cash values that can remain active at the same time. The fourth grid introduces three special Money symbol types. A Collect symbol gathers the values of every Money symbol positioned on the corresponding reel across the other unlocked grids. If more Money symbols later appear on that reel, the Collect symbol also gathers those new values during future respins. This gives an early Collect symbol the possibility of paying repeatedly as the feature continues. Plus Cash symbols carry values of 3, 5, 8, 10 or 15 times the bet. When one appears, its value is added to every ordinary Money symbol positioned on the corresponding reel across the unlocked grids. Fixed Mini, Minor, Major and Grand values are not increased by Plus Cash. The effect can therefore strengthen several standard Money prizes simultaneously when the same vertical reel contains multiple collected symbols. Multiplier symbols on the fourth grid carry values of 2, 3, 4 or 5 times. Their multiplier applies to every Money value positioned on the corresponding reel across all unlocked grids. Unlike Plus Cash, this effect multiplies the affected values rather than increasing them by a fixed amount, giving a well populated reel particularly strong potential once the fourth grid becomes active. The Money Respin Feature ends when no respins remain or every available position across the unlocked grids becomes filled. All Money values remaining on active grids are then added together and paid, including any modifications created by Collect, Plus Cash and Multiplier symbols. Reaching the overall maximum win of 5,000 times the bet immediately ends the round and awards the capped prize. An Ante Bet option increases the total stake by 60 percent and improves the probability of landing enough Money symbols to activate the bonus. Where Feature Buy is permitted, the Money Respin Feature can instead be purchased directly for 80 times the selected bet. Wolf Gold Ultimate succeeds because it takes the simple Hold and Respin structure of the original and gives it a genuine sense of progression. Unlocking additional grids creates increasingly crowded Money screens, while the fourth grid changes the feature completely through reel based collectors and value modifiers. Players who enjoyed the classic Wolf Gold format but want more depth will find this the most mechanically ambitious entry in the series.
