Wolf Run is a brand new slot from IGT which combines the majesty of this noble animal with a distinctly native American atmosphere.  There are plenty of online slots around which feature animals, nature and stunning landscapes and Wolf Run adds to the genre with some style.

This slot features five reels and a healthy forty paylines; the reels are set inside a wooden frame and the  background to the game features a mountainous snow-capped landscape with forested hillsides – the ideal habitat for a wolf.

9, 10, J, Q, K and A make up the lower value symbols but each has a small decorative design carved into it.  The higher value symbols are all related to the theme and we have two carved totems, a white wolf, a black wolf and a howling wolf silhouetted against a yellow full moon.

That howling wolf is also the wild symbol and in addition there’s a bonus symbol featuring a paw print and a dream catcher.

Bonus Features

Stacked Wolf Wild

Wolf Run features a stacked wild and that means that on each reel there are groups of four or more wolf wilds on top of each other.  This obviously provides for more chances to earn winning combinations and it’s always a good thing.

The stacked wild feature is also available in the bonus game but with added power.

Free Spins

There’s always a space for a free spin feature in an online slot and this game is no exception; to trigger this one you’ll need to land three of the bonus symbols in any position on the centre three reels (these symbols only appear on the centre reels).

You will now receive five free spins which may not sound like much but the stacked wilds also feature here and they are bigger and better.  You will also notice that the colours of the symbols change when playing the free spins.

It’s possible to earn more spins by landing more bonus symbols up to maximum of 255.

Verdict

The graphics are great, as are the animations but the sound effects also really stand out here – a winning combo is accompanied by a the haunting sound of a howling wolf.  The stacked wilds tends to mean lots of smaller wins.
