Forging Wilds Overview
Pragmatic Play loves a lot of different themes, but it seems that they also have an affection with forging games. We’ve seen Viking Forge and Forge of Olympus. But now also their latest release, Forging Wilds.
Of course this game uses a forging theme, but it seems it’s the forge where Thor’s hammer is made. At least that’s what I get.
You will find 5 reels that are each 3 symbols high and the game uses 20 paylines.
Besides low paying card symbols, you will find all sorts of forged items and tools, like an anvil and a helmet. Then we have the big silver hammer that counts as the scatter and can appear on all reels. And lastly we have wild symbols, which can also appear on all reels.
Forging Wilds comes with a nice big maximum win of 10.000 times bet and is a high volatile slot game.
Features
Forging Wilds
Whenever one or more wild symbols appear, you are paid as normal. But after this, at random, the wild can become a Forged Wild.
This will make that the wild symbol becomes sticky and you will receive re-spin. After each re-spin, if the wild stays forged, the wild will receive a +1 multiplier. This will keep happening until the wild symbol becomes unforged and the re-spins end when no more forged wilds are on the reels.
Forging Wilds Re-spins
3, 4 or 5 scatter symbols will trigger the free spins bonus with 5, 10 or 15 wild symbols.
During each spin a random number of wild symbols, from the pool on the right on the reels, will be added to the reels. These wilds can also become forge, just as explained above.
The free spins end when all wilds have been used from the pool and no more forged wilds appear on the reels. Wild symbols can’t land the normal way during these spins.
3, 4, or 5 scatter symbols during free spins will add 5, 10 and 15 more wilds to the pool.
Bonus Buy
Most casinos offer the option to buy the Forging Wilds Re-spins. For 75 times bet you will get 3, 4 or 5 scatters symbols. For 550 times bet you are guaranteed 5 scatter symbols.
Verdict
Forging Wilds is a nice looking game with some interesting features.
I really like the fact that all wild symbols can become forged. During both the base game and during free spins, or re-spins as they call it.
This can award a lot of sticky wilds with big multipliers if you’re lucky. And can result is some big wins in a row. Of course it can also be frustrating when the forged wilds are removed too fast and don’t get time to increase in multiplier.
Overall it’s a clever, fun new slot game.
