Wild Tundra Review

It’s hard to believe that most of Northern Europe was completely covered by the Eurasian ice sheet “only” 23,000 years ago, and it gives you something to consider in these “global warming” times. Red Tiger has made a realistic looking Ice Age slot with Wild Tundra, and the visual presentation is excellent as usual from this developer. The gameplay is simple, with core features like different sized multiplier symbols and chain reaction wins.

The Super Symbols come with size-specific multipliers, and these are key to larger payouts. A progressive Chain Reaction win multiplier is thrown into the mix when the bonus round hits, but it’s capped at x20. You also get a symbol transformation feature going however, and this deadly combo can lead to payouts up to a solid 10,000x your stake. The math model would have been top notch, if it wasn’t for the usual below 96 % top-tier RTP (with customizable ranges).

Wild Tundra Slot Features

You win by landing 3-5 matching symbols anywhere on adjacent reels from left to right, and the animal premium symbols pay between 0.6 to 3 x your stake for 5 of a kind wins. Winning symbols are removed via the Chain Reaction mechanic, making room for new and/or existing symbols to drop down to create new winning combos. This goes on as long as you keep winning.

All pay symbols come with a Super Symbols version, but you can only get 1 symbol type as a Super Symbol per spin. The Super Symbols come with size specific multipliers as follows:

• 1x2 Super Symbols has an x3 multiplier attached.
• 1x3 Super Symbols has an x5 multiplier attached.
• 1x4 Super Symbols has an x8 multiplier attached.

The Bonus Round triggers when you land 3 Free Spins scatters anywhere in view, and you get +1 free spin on top of that for every extra triggering scatter above the minimum of 3. A pay symbol that’s not the top-tier Mammuth is randomly chosen up front for the Symbol Transformation feature, and all instances of the chosen symbol transform into the top-tier Mammuth during the bonus round.

You win +3 extra spins whenever you land 3 scatters in the same chain reaction sequence, and each scatter on top of that awards 1 extra free spin added to your tally. Each retrigger gives you a new chosen transforming symbol, and a progressive ‘Ice Age’ win multiplier also becomes active during the feature. It starts at x1, and increases by +1 per cascading win up to x20 at the most.

Review Summary

The ice age visuals are nicely done in this Red Tiger release, and the gameplay is simple, yet highly enjoyable and entertaining. The base game can dish out solid payouts due to the multiplier Super Symbols that come in sizes up to 1x4, and the 10,000x potential is more solid than usual from this developer. You will be dealing with RTP ranges though, and the top-tier 95.7 % RTP is a tad below average.

This is hardly a deal-breaker in our humble opinion, and when the progressive multiplier starts to build in the bonus round, the win cap certainly seems achievable. Time will tell how it plays out in practice, of course, but Wild Tundra provides solid entertainment wrapped in convincing visuals. The math model is about as good as it gets from Red Tiger, as only Gonzo’s Quest Megaways can brag about a significantly higher potential.
