Wilds From the Crypt Slot Review
One of my old haunts was an alternative nightclub that attracted all the freaks, geeks, metalheads, punks, and goths.
I knew a wide cross-section of the different groups that were regular patrons.
So one night I’m sitting with a rocker buddy🎸, drinking beer🍺 and shots🥃, and shooting the breeze🌬️. In walks this tall, skinny waif of a human. A long green and white mohawk that hung down almost to butt level.
My buddy leans over and says, “Have you seen that chick before? She’s hot.”
I looked at my buddy a little puzzled and replied, “You know that’s a dude, right?”
He regarded me with contempt and attempted to argue with me until I explained that the goth girl was my friend. And most definitely a dude.
An effeminate sort of goth dude who dressed in outlandish costumes, wore platforms, makeup, shaved his eyebrows, and drew them back on. But a dude nonetheless.
So I’m not that surprised to see pretty goth people like the human characters in Wilds From The Crypt slot by Kalamba.
Gameplay
Wilds From The Crypt slot introduces us to a creepy (yet weirdly attractive) family. Think the Addams Family, except this family is blonde. Personally, I prefer my goths with black hair.
The family members are all the highest-paying symbols.
You play on 6 reels with 40 paylines. Wins pay from left to right, and only the highest win per bet line is paid.
It also features Kalamba Games’ HyperBet ante bet feature, with 3 levels offering 3 different RTPs.
- Level 1: 96.31%
- Level 2: 96.48%
- Level 3: 96.52%
You can bet as low as €0.28 or as high as €35. If you’re betting the upper limit and manage to hit the game’s top multiplier of 8,200x, you stand to score the game’s win limit of €287,000.
Lastly, Wilds From The Crypt slot is a high-volatility slot.
Features
WILDS
Wild symbol
Wild symbols substitute for all symbols except the Scatter, Accumulation, and Extra Free Spin symbols and appear on all the reels in the base game and reels 1 and 6 during Free Spins.
Multiplier Wild symbols
Also substitutes for all symbols except the Scatter, Accumulation, and Extra Free Spin symbols. When part of a winning combination, they multiply the prize by the value shown on it. Multiplier Wilds only appear on reels 2, 3, 4, and 5 during the base game and Free Spins.
Expanding Wilds
On the 10th spin in the base game, the Wild and Multiplier Wild symbols expand to take over their respective reels.
During Free Spins, all normal Wild symbols are Expanding Wilds, and Multiplier Wilds are sticky and stay in position until the end of the feature.
SCATTER
The Scatter symbol, or Bonus symbol, is a book of spells. They only land on reels 2, 3, 4, and 5 in the base game and reels 1 and 6 during Free Spins. You must land 3 or more to trigger Free Spins.
Scatter symbols also pay in any position.
- 3 Scatter symbols = 2x your current bet.
- 4 Scatter symbols = 6x your current bet.
The number of Free Spins you’re awarded depends on your HyperBet level.
- Level 1 = 6 Free Spins
- Level 2 = 8 Free Spins
- Level 3 = 10 Free Spins
If you land a Scatter during Free Spins, you’ll be awarded 1 additional Free Spin.
LUCKY LOOPS
During the base game, Accumulation symbols, little vials of pink smoke, are collected. Accumulation symbols only land on reels 2, 3, 4, and 5.
For every 3 Accumulation symbols collected, the game randomly will add one Expanding Multiplier Wild symbol to the reels on every 10th spin in the base game.
On the 10th Spin, any normal Wild symbols on the reels become Expanding Wilds and also take over every position on their respective reels.
GAMBLE FEATURE
If any win is 3x your bet, Wilds From The Crypt slot will offer you the chance to double your prize money.
You can choose to gamble all your prize money or a portion of it.
If you choose to gamble, you’ll be presented with a wheel, one half purple and the other half gray. Spin the wheel, and if you land on purple, you win. If you land on gray, you lose all the money and are returned to the base game.
You can gamble up to 3 times.
BONUS BUY
If you can’t wait to trigger Free Spins in the game, you can buy 6, 8, or 10 Free Spins from 12x to 69x your current bet.
ANTE BET
The ante bet feature, or HyperBet, as the game calls it, has 3 levels that change the Expanding Multiplier Wild value in the base game, the number of Free Spins you’re awarded, and the initial value of Sticky Multiplier Wild symbols during Free Spins.
Performance
I tested Wilds From The Crypt slot on my Windows laptop and Android phone and didn’t experience any bugs or loading issues on either.
Maximum Win
The minimum bet is €0.28, and the maximum is €35. If you're playing at maximum stakes and you get the maximum multiplier, 8,200x, you can win up to €287,000.
Conclusion
Wilds From The Crypt slot is not quite what I expected when I fired it up. Call me old-school, but when things come from the crypt, I expect a cryptkeeper to be creepy. Not pretty blonde people with an emo edge.
Although the actual ghoul in the Wild symbol reminds me of the lead singer for that metal band, Ghost.
Despite my disappointment in the art style, the game looks and sounds really good. And the features aren’t terrible either.
This isn’t packed with unique features. It only offers Free Spins, really. Although the Lucky Loops feature every 10 spins does spice up the base game a lot.
You can select your preferred ante bet, which essentially changes the game down to how many Free Spins you can trigger. I was tempted to go for the highest of the 3 levels in hopes of triggering 10 Free Spins with higher multipliers.
If you like spooky or gothic games, then Wilds From The Crypt slot is a good one to add to your favorites. If you can forgive the Slytherin House aesthetic.
