If you have ever wondered how it would be to travel with a train, similar to the one in Agatha Cristie’s “Murder in the Orient Express“, then you definitely have to check out this intriguing game coming right from Play’n GO. Wild Rails turns out to be one of the unique creations recently coming from the Swedish producer.
Game Review
The slot game uses 5 reels and 30 fixed paylines and the design of the reels here is a bit unusual. Instead of moving vertically, they move horisontally. These slots depicting the golden era of railway journeys can provide you with enough Wilds in order to cover your entire screen. There are also free spins where you can count on Wild trains appearing with each spin. The game is compatible with every device and the bets vary between 30 cent and 90 Euro per spin. RTP is set at 96.53% by default, but it is possible to be lower, too.
The visuals are pretty charming and the athmosphere is as good as those of the best slot games. There is a railway bridge with four levels in the game. The reels are on a defile connecting two mountains between which you will see train wagons containing the symbols. They are divided in two main types. The first ones are those with lower value (from 10 to Ace royal symbols), as well as four notable travellers. You can get the biggest rewards from the Queen, as well as a multiplier of 20 times your bet for 5-of-a-kind. There is a Wild symbol, too. It is vital for the game and awards you a multiplier of 30 times your bet if you manage to get a full line of them.
Slot Characteristics and Bonuses
It is possible to randomly trigger the Wild Trains feature during any spin. Up to 4 Wild train symbols can land on the reels bringing up to five Wilds. This is an equivallent of full Wild reels. Getting a screen full of Wild symbols during gameplay will give you a 900 times multiplier of your bet.
The accent of the entire game is on the free spins feature, which appear if you receive 3 or more golden symbols with a train (Scatters). 3, 4 or 5 of them will respectively award you 5, 7 or 10 free spins. The bonus starts with a guaranteed Wild symbol per spin. You will receive an extra Wild and a free spin for every 3 new Scatters. When you gather all 4 of the Wild symbols, you will get 3 extra spins for every third Scatter gathered. This can continue until you finish the amount of free spins.
Conclusion
The free spins feature in Wild Rails is definitely in the limelight. Its good performance, well-balanced action and all the fun gameplay really help maintaining the interest in the game. Like many other slot games, it has high variety.
Generally, Wild Rails combines good production and high quality. The key to winning the game is receiving more Scatter symbols during the free spins.
