Whenever you hear the name Wilhelm Tell you’ll most likely thing about an apple placed on top of someone’s head. What you might not know is that Wilhelm Tell is said to have assassinated a tyrannical ruler, and lead the people to take back their power, which eventually lead to the Swiss Confederacy. Anyway, the soundtrack of this game might be familiar, as it’s based on the 1829 Wilhelm Tell overture.

Tell and his son was arrested after the coup attempt, but as the legend goes, Tell freed them both by shooting an apple on top of his son, Walter’s, head. Walter is the wild and stacked wild symbol in this game, and you’ll see him tied to a tree with a red apple on his head. The free spins feature gives you a choice of 3 different multipliers, and you can win quite big on this medium variance slot.

Wilhelm Tell bonus features

What would a game about Wilhelm Tell be without his son, Walter, with an apple on his head? Well, we’ll never know cause Walter is the wild symbol on this game, and it’s a stacked wild featuring poor Walter tied to a tree with an apple placed firmly on his head, just so good ole’ papa Tell can practice his (hopefully) impeccable aim.

Walter will help you a lot in this game, and he comes as a normal wild too. A nudge feature will also nudge the stacked Walter wild fully onto the reels if that means you’ll hit a winning combination. If you fill all the reels with Walter Wilds you’ll win 150 times your stake.

Wilhelm Tell free spins

The free spins feature is truly what this game is all about, and you’ll trigger this feature when you land at least 3 scatter symbols on the same spin. Only 2 scatters will still win you 2x your stake, while 3, 4 or 5 scatters will give you 2x, 20x or 500x your stake as well as triggering the free spins feature. You then will have to choose 1 of 3 options:

• 10 free spins with a 5x multiplier
• 5 free spins with a 10x multiplier
• 1 free spin with a 50x multiplier

Unfortunately, there is no way you can re-trigger the free spins feature on Wilhelm Tell slot.

Wilhelm Tell jackpot (max win)

While there is no progressive or local jackpot to be won on Wilhelm Tell, you can still win quite big in the free spins feature. By opting for the 50x multiplier option you can pocket the game’s max win of 7,500 times your stake. This amounts to £375,000 if you play with maximum stakes, and this is not bad for a medium variance game.

Wilhelm Tell mobile & tablet

You can certainly play Wilhelm Tell slot on both mobile and tablet, and Yggdrasil always makes sure their games are suitable for all handheld platforms. You can bring this game with you wherever you may go, and play on your iPhone, iPad or your Android devices.

SlotCatalog verdict

Since Wilhelm Tell slot offers no real potential in the base game, it’s really all about the free spins feature. We don’t know if this is deliberate, but this makes Wilhelm Tell a literal “hit-and-miss” slot - just like the legend of Tell’s infamous apple shot. Your only true chance to win big happens in the free spins game, and if you really want to take the “hit-and-miss-theme” to the next level, you can choose the 1 free spin and 50x multiplier option. This can land you a cool 7,500x your stake.

Pros

• 3 different free spins with multiplier options
• Win up to 7,500x your stake
• Nice classic soundtrack
• Stacked wild and nudge feature

Cons

• No apple shooting bonus game
• Not much action or potential in the base game
