Wicked Wanda Slot Review

Sometimes, good things take a while to manifest… and a little help doesn’t hurt either. Chris Isaak wrote the song Wicked Game in 1989, but it only became a hit when David Lynch used it in his 1990 film, Wild at Heart. 🖤

Then, Lee Chesnut, a radio station director who had a thing for Lynch films, started playing the song regularly, and that’s what fast-tracked it to a Top-10 hit and eventually saw the ditty peak at number 6 on the Billboard Hot 100. 🎼🎶

Here’s hoping that luck is on your side and the stars align while you play Wicked Wanda slot from Mancala. 🧙🏻

Gameplay

Ooooh, look at the cool animations! A pair of green-tinged witch hands flank the 3-4-5-4-3-reel grid and start clapping if you don’t hit the SPIN button as quickly as she’d prefer (it can get super annoying).

I like the other little touches to the design, such as the evil pumpkins being bars in the dungeon. That’s pretty cool.

Things also look sweet when you fire this bad boy up on your mobile phone. The grid formation lends itself to both vertical and landscape orientations so you can play the way you prefer.

Stats-wise, there are 720 ways to win, an RTP of 95%, and a very high volatility rate. Given the latter, the top prize of €201,600 is slightly disappointing, and the max multiplier is also a bit on the anemic side at 4,032x.

Wicked Wanda slot is an all-ways game that pays from left to right. The Wild symbol substitutes for all other symbols.

Features

FREE SPINS:

You trigger this round in a slightly different way; what you need to do is collect drops during the base game. You’ll need 100 of em and they’ll end up in the jar with the wings and the pentagram to the top left of the reels.

You can re-trigger the round by collecting more drops, and 20 drops will reward you with an additional 10 spins.

You might also see a stacked Coffin Wild with the Mancala symbol on it in the middle of the grid during the round. When it descends on the third reel, it will add multiplier values to random symbols. If one of those symbols is on a payline, the total payline winnings will be boosted.

BUY BONUS:

You can fast-track your ass into the Free Spins round for the super low price of just 46x your bet. Oh, hell yeah!

Performance

I had no problems while testing Wicked Wanda slot, which is built using HTML5 technology. I played on all of my devices (phone, tablet, and desktop) and also swapped between Chrome and Safari.

Maximum Win

The €201,600 top prize is on the low side, considering the volatility rate of this game is very high. In general, most highly volatile games offer a quarter mil…

Betting starts at €0.25 and is capped at €50, and the largest multiplier you can land is 4,032x.

Conclusion

If you’re into Free Spins and you’re impatient but also don’t have a billionaire’s budget, then Wicked Wanda slot is where you wanna be. Paying 46x to get into the round is a no-brainer and that’s what I ended up doing many, many times.

Naturally, this was no guarantee of success but we all know how it works – ain’t nothing guaranteed except death and taxes.

I enjoyed the simplicity of it all; Free Spins, a cheap Buy Bonus, and the fact that you can play the game on a phone – what more do you need for the most part?

But you’ll need to bear in mind that the volatility rate is serious and there’s a misalignment between that and the top prize, which might be a dealbreaker for some.
