Wild Spartans

As the name implies, Wild Spartans is all about the wilds. Though not the wildly popular stacked variation, these do something even more special. As one of their earlier releases, Red Tiger Gaming has come leaps and bounds ahead of this 10-line slot game in terms of innovative features and graphics. Let’s explore the Titan’s territory.

Theme

There’s no doubt about the artistic skills this provider has as the two characters on either side of the slot stand tall and seem a little intimidating. The backdrop is a gray battlefield – a place we wouldn’t want to be. Symbols include the Spartan helmet, knives, spears, A, K, Q, J and 10. Wilds and free spins symbols also appear, but more on that in the special features section.

Betting Options and Functions

For impatient players, turbo mode can be turned on by holding down the spacebar on a desktop computer. When on a mobile device, hold down the spin button and watch the reels go.

The Autoplay options are impressive. For example, the settings allow you to indicate the number of automatic spins and other stop settings such as a big win, bonus and other preferences.

As for the betting, the range on most of the games from Red Tiger start as low as 0.20 and climb into highroller status at $500 per spin. Bear in mind that these limits aren’t set in stone and may vary by the online casino or currency. There’s no gamble feature included, which we think is a good thing. Players don’t have to click ‘keep’ or risk losing a decent payout.

Special Features

Ah yes, the special features. In this case, the most attractive feature is the wild. Why? When a wild lands on the reels with a number on it, let’s say it’s 3, it locks in place for the next 3 spins. The Titans can boost this number, so keep an eye out for the reels to go red as they pound their spears on the ground to increase the number of spins applicable to all active wilds on the screen. The number of spins varies but is similar to sticky wilds from NetEnt or other similar concepts from other providers.

Three blonde maidens trigger the free spins bonus complete with the locked wild feature.

Our Take on Wild Spartans

There aren’t as many bonuses as we’ve seen in their other games, but this one certainly has potential with the locked wilds, especially when there’s more than one. The paytable is a bit underwhelming, however, the theme may be enough to pique your interest. As always, it comes to a matter of preference yet the highest paying symbol, the wild, only pays 500 credits for 5 across. Out of 5 stars, we’d have to give it 2.5.
