INTRODUCTION
You better get some warm clothes on, because we are taking you north, to the natural habitat of Ice Wolf, a six-reel video slot, which comes from ELK Studios’ creative kitchen. With a Nordic feel to it, the 2019 release is located on a mountain covered in snow, where the only animals gamers can see are White Wolves.
Visually impressive, the 2019 release offers a couple of additional features that can help spinners land big wins. Every winning spin triggers a respin, boosts the reel grid and increases the number of ways to win, up to 74,088. Expect Special Symbols on the top reel, which come with Wilds, win multipliers and additional respins. Add Wilds on the reels with the help of the Wolfpack feature.
HOW TO PLAY ICE WOLF
As we have already mentioned, the reels are set high on a mountain somewhere in the north. White Wolf or the Ice Wolf is the special symbol that triggers the Wolfpack feature, awarding Wilds and respins. The Wild will substitute for all other icons appearing on the reels, including Golden Wolf, Golden Deer, and Golden Eagle, as well as Axe, Hammer, and a Shield.
Low-paying symbols are simple playing cards. Also, there are several Special Symbols appearing on the top row, like Wilds, Multipliers and +1 Spins.
The rules of the game might seem a bit complicated in the beginning, but you could get the hang of it after several spins. The 2019 release features six reels and seven rows while offering 729 ways to win in the beginning. The bottom three rows are free, while the upper three rows are covered in ice and consecutive winning spins melt the ice, freeing other reels and increasing the number of ways to win, up to 74,088.
The ELK Studios title pays left to right, starting from the leftmost reel, with three of a kind being the minimum for landing payouts. Betting is fixed at 20 coins per spin, while the coin denomination can be altered ($0.01 – $5). Four betting strategies are on the offer, Optimizer, Leveller, Booster, and Jumper.
PAYOUTS
If you are brave enough to fight against Wolves, you can pocket up to $250,000 in a single spin, which is quite nice. The symbol that pays the most is the Golden Wolf, offering 5 times the bet for six of a kind. Try to unlock Special Symbols to get boosted wins, because the win multiplier can go up to 50x. Ice Wolf’s RTP is 96.1%.
what we like
- Win up to $250,000 in a single spin
- Every win expands the reel grid
- Stunning visuals
what we don’t like
- Takes time to activate Special Symbols
- No free spins
- Reel grid resets after a non-winning spin
ICE WOLF (ELK STUDIOS): CASINOBLOKE’S VERDICT
First of all, we need to say that the good people of ELK Studios deserve a pat on the back for a job well done in the graphics department. Second, the features incorporated can be very generous, but also very frustrating, due to the fact that the reel grid resets after a non-winning spin. It will take you time to unlock all the cells and to reach Special Symbols, which will then guarantee you huge payouts, but you will curse the Wolves and the cold mountain every time the ice covers the upper three rows.
