Yggdrasil and Peter & Sons Go In Guns Blazing in Wild Duel Slot

As we’re smack-dab in the middle of March Madness, leading publisher Yggdrasil and up-and-coming game studio Peter & Sons have decided to up the excitement by releasing a hot new slot that fans are bound to love. While this new release is somewhat unexpected, it’s a welcome surprise. Both companies have been doing incredible things in the iGaming field, and this fun new slot is just another addition to their extensive list of top-tier projects. If you’re ready for a Wild West adventure like you’ve never seen before, strap in and get ready to duel!

The Game Design

Wild Duel doesn’t disappoint when creativity is in question. The premise of the game is simple. The game’s titular location Wild Town is under siege by bandits! The Wild Town Marshals have arrived on horseback to protect their properties and are now facing off in fierce duels with the invading outlaws. We’ve noticed a trend with some recent releases in the online gambling scene where they take things a bit too seriously. We’re glad to say that Wild Duel takes a more laidback approach, injecting tons of humor and experimental elements into the game.

The game’s design is perfectly in line with its comedic nature. It boasts a more cartoonish design, adding exaggerated features to the game’s lineup of characters. Of course, everything else in the game echoes this theme. The background is a classic western setting, cactuses, saloons, and tumbleweed included, and the symbols appear in the shape of classic letters, TNT barrels, sheriff badges, bottles of booze, and more. If we had to sum it up in one sentence, we’d have to say the game is a hilariously modern take on the old-school western theme.

The Gameplay

Wild Duel is a high volatility slot that features a 5×3 grid. As expected from a Yggdrasil release, the game is packed with action, boasting tons of extra features that give it an edge in today’s saturated slot market. The Wilds in the game can appear on any reel. When over two scatters are triggered in the base game, the Wild Duel mode is activated, awarding players a Respin. When this happens, the leaders of the bandits and the Marshalls face-off, dragging Expanding Wilds, Sticky Wilds, random multipliers, and Wilds along with them! These can land anywhere on the grid.

It’s also worth noting that the duel’s winner has some significance as well. If the leader of the Marshalls happens to win, you get another Respin. What’s better, there’s no limit to how many of these occur in succession. Another interesting game feature is activated when three Scatters land. This occurrence activates the Free Spins mode. With every winning duel, a new Free Spin is awarded to players.
