Be Wild! Slot Machine
Be Wild is a video slot game with 9 adjustable pay lines and 5 reels. Be Wild is an addicting cartoon style game with an African safari type theme that features wild animals of the African plains.
This video slot game shares several aspects with its sister game also developed by Vista Gaming, which is Amazon Quest. Vista Gaming moves the action out of the South American rain forest and into the African Savanna in Be Wild!
With a low variance Be Wild is the perfect game for beginning slot players, but there is an aspect that can keep betting high that will be discussed that may appeal to veteran and high roller players.
Bets and Features
Vista Gaming is one of the lesser known developers in the online casino industry, due to this fact many players may not realize that Be Wild! is a clone of many other games by Vista Gaming. Some of these clones include: Disco Fever, Games Bond, Circus, and Amazon Quest to name a few. All of these mentioned games have the same exact makeup and game structure but are themed differently to suit the taste and needs of individual players.
With that said, if video slot players like the way this game is played but do not like the graphics or the overall theme, there are several other alternative options for players to choose from. Players can simply play one of these other games mentioned and get the same exact experience but with a totally different aesthetic feel.
There are 9 pay lines that are fully adjustable in Be Wild! and can be switched off and on as needed. The stock bet is fixed at very high 1.00 credit. Because of this, with all lines selected, one single spin costs an outstanding 9 chips! If you are a high roller, you can up the ante even more by betting up to 5 coins for each active line for a whopping 45-coin bet to achieve maximum payout.
Wild Symbols
The Be Wild! Symbols feature puzzled elephants, bewildered monkeys, sneaky alligators, arrogant snakes, and lazy lions. In exactly the same fashion as the other slots previously mentioned, the max payout that can be won for hitting any 5 of these symbols in a row is 3,000 coins. To put this amount into perspective, the second highest paying symbol that can be hit, awards up to 800 coins. That is a huge difference and a very nice maximum payout.
All symbols payout left to right just like other traditional video slot games.
There are three types of special symbols that can triggered in Be Wild! video slot too. One of these is the wild symbol which takes shape in the form of binoculars. The wild binocular symbol substitutes any stock symbol except for other special symbols and pays out at the value for that symbol listed in the pay table.
Exactly like the wild binocular symbol, the scatter symbol does not pay anything on its own either. However, when three or more scatter symbols show up in a single spin, the Free Spin bonus game is activated but unfortunately the pay table does not divulge how many free spins can be won.
Hitting three or more hippos on the pay lines triggers the selection bonus trigger. Players will be given the option of selecting one of the floating hippos on the screen and will instantly win the prize amount associated with the floating hippo that is chosen, which is usually around the total bet value.
Wild Fun
Although having a few different downsides such as being a clone of many other games and a lack of transparency in scatter option payouts, Be Wild! Can be a fun video slot game to experience.
The safari theme is something with a little bit different of a feel over other video slot games which typically have a monetary theme. The graphic design is not terrible, but also not one of the better designed video game slots either.
This game is pretty basic all around and is easy to learn but will not give you an overwhelming gaming experience, but gives just enough to have an enjoyable time.
The lack of variance makes this game very suitable for the novice video slot player but the game can also be adjusted to make the seasoned player or high roller happy.
