The Wild Chase

It’s the kind of story you’d expect to see in a movie! Four talented thieves descend upon an unsuspecting European town. Under the cover of participating in the local race, they work tirelessly to break into the nearby vault and steal all its valuables!

And once they’ve filled their bags with loot and need a getaway? They get to drive off with some of the fastest cars in existence, laughing it up all the way to the bank!

The Wild Chase Slot Review

The Wild Chase is played on a five reel board, where each reel is three symbols tall. There are a total of twenty five paylines which cannot be turned on or off. To win, collect three or more identical icons in adjacent positions, starting with the leftmost reel. Each win must follow one of the currently active paylines, or their cash prize won’t be granted.

After each win, the symbols that were part of it temporarily become sticky. A re-spin is played, during which new identical icons may appear on the board, and add onto the current win. This continues until no new symbols land that can be added to the win. Only then is the win paid out! Furthermore, this mechanic is active during all other special features, including multiplier Wilds and free spins!

Theme & Symbols

More often than not, themes that depict the lifestyles of the obscenely wealthy tend to bore us. Yes, we get it, they’re all very rich, and we could be too if we win big! But this Quickspin release wraps it in a storyline that we’d love to see made into a movie. Gorgeous gals and handsome guys making off with expensive watches, gorgeous jewelry, lots of cash, fast cars and gleaming diamonds? Sign us up!

What we really like is how the background changes for each little thing. Collecting more sticky icons during a re-spin? The image blurs as if you’re driving quickly. Just triggered the free spins? You see the vault being opened and our four thieves standing in front of their loot! Then, during free spins there’s another blurry chase background, which reveals a gorgeous boat in the middle of the sea when you get away!

Symbol designs look cool, but they’re not mind-blowingly good. There’s a stack of cash, a diamond ring, an expensive watch, car keys, a bag full of diamonds, and our four heisters! If it was just your regular old high life theme, we probably wouldn’t even blink twice at any of these. So it only goes to show how much a good theme can alter the way players perceive your game!

How to Play The Wild Chase

The Wild Chase is played on a 5×3 board with 25 fixed paylines which have sticky icons active. The slot has a low-medium variance, and a jackpot worth 250x on each spin. Wait, wait, don’t click away just yet! This game isn’t the type to grant you one big win, that’s true. Instead, you collect a bunch of smaller wins together in a giant, satisfying heap! And unlike most other top prizes, this one is actually feasible to reach!

You owe that satisfaction to the aforementioned sticky symbols and re-spins. We cannot tell you the number of times we saw a small win get transformed into a big score! Paired with Wild multipliers and free spins, this Quickspin release can swiftly amass a lot of prizes! Of course, there’s no guarantee that each spin will be successful. You still need to get lucky if you plan on landing a huge win, just like with any other slot.

One thing we were glad to see is that The Wild Chase continues Quickspin’s proud tradition of easy to set wagers. Just click the Total Bet button to reveal a drop down menu, and select the stake that suits you best. No need to convert coin values to cash, or to tweak multiple variables to find your ideal wager. Simply pick between €0.25 as a minimum, €100 as a maximum, or the wide number of stakes in between those two!

Bonus Features

Sticky icons and re-spins: After each winning combination, symbols that were part of the win are locked in place. A re-spin is played, during which any icons that extend the initial win are also locked in place. Re-spins continue so long as new symbols are added to the winning combination. When a re-spin goes through with no new additions, the special feature ends, and a cash prize is awarded to the online gambler.

• Multiplier Wild

If a Wild is part of a winning combination, it will automatically award a multiplier for that round. Depending on the number of Wilds, your multiplier increases, capping at 5x for four or more Wilds.

• Free Spins

To trigger free spins, players have to collect three Scatters during a single game round. During each extra turn, a Wild is guaranteed to appear on the reels. However, said Wild is not guaranteed to be part of a win, so you won’t always get its multiplier.

The Wild Chase Payouts

Quickspin’s slot has a low-medium variance and a jackpot worth 250x your total stake on each spin. The game has an RTP of 96.72%, which is almost a whole percentage point above the most slots in an online casino.
