Wolf Gold Ultimate Slot Review
Wolf Gold Ultimate is the expanded version of the original Wolf Gold, bringing the familiar wild American West theme back with enhanced gameplay. The Hold and Spin feature has received a notable upgrade, although it's worth mentioning that Free Spins are absent this time. The wolf theme takes us to serene, desolate landscapes inhabited by wild herds, offering an immersive natural vibe. I agree that the theme is rather hackneyed, but it still retains a calm allure that can draw you in for more.
Info
The slot boasts an increased RTP of 96.57%, which is a welcome improvement, while the volatility remains medium. The game layout stays with the classic 5x3 grid and 25 paylines, allowing bets ranging from €0.25 to €250 per spin. The most noticeable change is the significantly higher maximum win potential of x5000 your stake, setting it apart from the previous release.

Bonus Feature
The standout feature of Wolf Gold Ultimate is, of course, Hold and Spin triggered by hitting 6 or more Money symbols land on the reels, each carrying a random multiplier from x0.4 to x15. Additionally, these symbols can hold the x20 Mini, x50 Minor, x100 Major, or x1,000 Grand prize. The round starts with 3 re-spins, and each new Money symbol not only resets the spin counter back to 3 but also sticks in place, with all collected values awarded at the end of the feature.
When 9 Money symbols appear, they unlock a second 5x3 grid. Collecting 18 symbols activates a third 5x3 grid, while a total of 32 symbols opens up a unique fourth 5x1 grid with special symbols only:
- Collect - gathers the values of Money symbols on the same reel.
- Plus Cash - adds a multiplier between x3 and x15 to Money symbols on the same reel.
- Multiplier - increases the multipliers on all reels by x2 to x5 where it lands.
Bonus rounds are also available for Purchase, and for an additional 60% of your bet, you can boost your chances of triggering the bonus feature.
Verdict
The base game in Wolf Gold Ultimate doesn't bring anything particularly fresh and, unfortunately, even lacks the Free Spins feature found in the original. On the brighter side, the Hold and Spin feature has undergone significant upgrades, making it a more dynamic experience and perhaps justifying the "Ultimate" label. The addition of the 5x1 grid with its three unique symbols provides a notable boost, yet it may feel underwhelming compared to the truly distinctive mechanics seen in other modern slots.
If you enjoyed the original Wolf Gold, this updated version might offer a bit more depth. However, it's best approached with tempered expectations, as it doesn't push the boundaries enough to stand out among other, more innovative games.
