Forging Wilds Theme:
Forge is the heart of a blacksmith’s workshop, where he gives desired shapes to any metals. In Forging Wilds, Pragmatic Play is indicating that they set up a workshop for building Wilds and you can land as much as you can. Its a creative name they have given to their slot by looking at the overall theme of the game.
In the background of Forging Wilds, you will be able to witness a burning forge or a furnance for heating the metal to a high temperature. The workshop, which serves as the backdrop for the entire theme, is filled with all the tools a blacksmith needs, such as chains for lifting large goods and garbage metal pieces, among other things.
A key piece of equipment in any metalworking workplace is a Hammer, which is represented by the Scatter symbol in this slot. High symbols are air blower, an anvil, a helmet, and a blacksmith. Although blacksmith look like a warrior. And lower symbols are usuall 10, J, Q, K, and A.
We sensed something strange about the frightening soundtrack of this slot machine. The combination of metal and wood in the reel frame demonstrates the blacksmith’s craftsmanship.
Slot features:
1. Forging Wilds:
This game’s main feature is that when a Wild symbol lands, it becomes sticky after computing all of the wins, at which point the respin cycle begins. This forged Wild will gain a multiplier of +x1 with each new respin. Either this Wild remains forged and the multiplier keeps growing, or it becomes unforged and the respin ends.
When there are no more forged wilds on the reel area, the respin will come to an end. Every winning combination that goes through this multiplier will be eligible for the prize.
2. Forging Wilds Respin:
When 3, 4, or 5 scatter (hammer) lands on reels , the Forging Wilds Respin will begin. A pool of randomly selected Wilds is formed in this respin game, this pool may contain 5, 10, or 15 Wilds. A random number of wilds will be drawn from the pool and added to a random position on the reels when the respin begins. These Wilds are Forgedable.
This bonus game will end when there will be no forged wilds on reels and no wilds left in the pool.
In the respin game, hitting 3, 4, or 5 scatters will award 5, 10, or 15 wilds to the pool once more.
3. Feature Buy:
There are two bonus buy options available in this game:
1. Random Hammer Symbol: This buy feature costs 75x bet and a random number of wilds will be added to the pool and respin starts.
2. Guaranteed 5 Hammer: Guaranteed 5 Hammer symbols will land on the reels to start a respin. Cost of this feature is 550x bet.
100 Spins Experience:
With a base bet of 1 euro, we played 100 spins and left with 34.05 at the end. But we enjoyed playing this game due to its theme, artwork and animation. Forging wild feature was triggered 6 times but didn’t awarded big amount. We observed that wins of low symbols are frequent but high symbol wins are very rare. We didn’t managed to trigger 3 hammers in a single spin.
Forging Wilds Slot Conclusion:
Pragmatic Play delivers slot games with a great frequency and with creative mechanism that’s why it is one of the bigest fish in the online gambling industry. They have ability to make a single feature slot game as a hit slot game. And we have a same feeling for Forging Wilds.
Forging Wild has a good RTP of 96.52% with high volatility and 10000X max win, overall a good combination. This slot game is revolving around a single feature that is Forging Wild. This feature has lot to offer like multiplier and respins. Bonus game are built with great mechanism we really liked the pool concept of wilds, and bonus game has lot of ability to reward big that is why it costs 550x. We tried a bonus buy game and won almost 700 times the bet.
Other than the feature and mechanism, the theme concept as a whole is excellent. Animations and artwork have a realistic feel and are highly related to each symbol in real life. We think this is a game that has a lot of potential, so give it a try.
