Rudolph Gone Wild slot review

Every developer with respect for themselves will release a new holidays season title every year. NextGen is no different, of course, and Rudolph Gone Wild has a lighthearted and humorous approach to the subject matter. The game comes jam-packed with random wild features, albeit some more effective than others.

You can place bets between 10p and £25 per spin here, and the reels are set at the Christmas present factory on what we presume is the North pole. Rudolph the rednosed reindeer is standing moody on the right-hand side, ready to headbutt the whole reel set when his walking wilds land. The bonus round is the big highlight here, and you can expect pretty lengthy sessions due to all the extra Rudolph wild respins.

Rudolph Gone Wild slot Features

The title of this game is no empty gimmick, as every feature here is about wilds in one way or another. The Flying Wilds feature is triggered at random times, and you will see a bunch of mumbling elves walk across the screen. Rudolph will then add a random number of wilds onto the reels.

There is also the randomly triggered Snow Machine Wilds feature, which can come about on any given base game spin. You’ll see the screen tremble, and jets of snow will then be blasted onto the reels. This will turn 1 to 4 regular symbols into wilds.

You will also land plenty of Rudolph Wilds when you play, and these give you free respins. The rednosed reindeer will headbutt the reel set, and this pushes all Rudolph wilds in view one step to the left. You will get new respins as long as you have Rudolph wilds in sight, and the feature only ends when the last wild has moved off the reels.

When you land 3 free spins symbols on the 3 middle reels, you trigger the bonus round. Before the feature plays out however, you will pick from 5 icons revealing the number of spins and 4 icons revealing the Rudolph Wild stack. You can get 6, 8, 10, 12 or 16 free spins here, and the height of the wild stack will be either 3, 4, 6 or 8 symbols.

This does not mean that the Rudolph wild stacks always land fully on the reels however, but they will certainly help prolong the bonus round with free respins no matter how many of them you land at the time. Finally, non-UK players can take advantage of the bonus buy option, which lands you the free spins feature for 100x your stake.

The 200 Spins Rudolph Gone Wild slot Experience

We got plenty of the Rudolph Wild Respins before we finally triggered the bonus round. If you want to skip right to the main attraction, you can start the video at 0:40. We have included some smaller wins before that, and the bonus round goes on for well over 3 minutes due to all the free respins we got.

Review Summary

Rudolph Gone Wild certainly offers some amusing moments, and the tempramental head-butting Reindeer is kind of fun to watch. The below average RTP of 95.33 % seems a bit stingy for a Holidays season title, but it’s not really a deal breaker for a game you won’t be playing for all that long anyway.

The base game random wild features might sound a bit more attractive than they really are. Many times you will get little to nothing from them, but the 5,000x potential is still solid for a medium variance title. The single spin max win is 2,500x however, and is most likely to occur via the stacked Rudolph wilds in the bonus round. Overall, this is a decent enough Christmas title, that does not take itself too seriously.

Pros

• 2 random base game wild features
• Walking Rudolph Wild Respins
• Bonus round with walking Rudolph wild respins
• Medium volatility and 5,000x max win potential

Cons

• Below average RTP of 95.33 %

If you love Rudolph Gone Wild slot you should also try:

Raging Reindeer - is a lighthearted and fun seasonal title from iSoftBet, and it plays out on 6 reels with 4,096 win ways. The main attraction is the Jingle Spins feature, which can land you up to 100 free spins. You will also benefit from multiplier wilds, and payouts up to 4,332x can be landed here.

Rudolph Awakens - the splash screen with a cigar smoking Rudulph holding a baseball bat, as well as the machine gun blasting Santa, really says it all. This is a must try Christmas title from RTG, and it comes with a bonus round with sticky wilds and a 50,000x jackpot.

Santa vs Rudolf - is one of our all-time favourite Christmas slots, mostly because of the hilarious concept. Good ole’ Santa and his famous Reindeer have fallen out, and they are both walking wilds that can clash on the reels to trigger the bonus round.
