Wolf Cub is a 2017 release by NetEnt that takes you to a snow-covered wood and populated with some wild animals. The cutest among them is the game's protagonist, a little Arctic wolf cub, which will sit on the left-hand side of the screen to cheer you up as you play the slot. With cartoon-like graphics and animations accompanied with a cheerful music score, the 5-reel 20-payline slot will provide you with an entertaining gaming experience.
Although its theme may strike you as a bit childish, the NetEnt 2017 release has a serious winning potential with a maximum payout standing at 400,000 coins. Its biggest attraction is the free spins feature during which the Blizzard feature can be activated to cover entire rows with symbols of a kind which can result in some hefty payouts.
The night falls in the woods and the beasts show up, but you should not be scared as they will help you score some high-value wins. Among the high paying symbols you will find the wolf cub, bear, moose, lynx and owl. Low-value symbols are depicted as spades, hearts, clubs and diamonds looking as if made of wood which matches well with the theme of the game and the control panel using the same design. The cub's paw stands for Wild whereas the full moon represents Scatter.
The game uses 5 reels and 20 fixed paylines. You can wager up to 10 coins per line at the coin denomination varying between $0.01 and $1. With a betting range from only $0.20 up to $200 per spin, the game will please both beginners and high-rollers.
The standard NetEnt control panel offers the Autoplay and Max Bet buttons placed on the left and right of the Spin button. Up to 1,000 automatic spins can be activated.
The game pays as long as you match 3 or more symbols of a kind on a paying line in succession left to right.
Wild is the most lucrative symbol that awards a 2,000 coin jackpot and replaces all regular symbols to help you complete more winning combinations. Land 3 or more Scatters anywhere in view and you will trigger the free spins feature. When it is activated, the reels containing the triggering symbols will spin once more to reveal the number of free games you will get. Up to 115 free spins can be awarded.
If you cover the reel 1 with a stack of identical symbols during free games, all matching symbols appearing on the reels will spread towards the reel one and cover all the positions in the given row or rows. Once triggered, the Blizzard feature can cover your reels entirely with symbols of a kind.
NetEnt made the game fully optimised for mobile play, so you can enjoy its cartoonish graphics and great sounds wherever you are. Look out for Full Moon Scatters to trigger up to 115 free games and the Blizzard feature can boost your chances of winning up to 400,000 coins in a single spin.
