Wild Yield Review

In these times where the world is crazed over the fact that the climate is changing (whether it is man made or not), Relax Gaming churns out a charming farm slot with plenty of weather changes. The cartoonish presentation is colorful and vivid, with an animated scarecrow by your side in all stages. The redneck soundtrack is pleasant as well, and Wild Yield comes with a climactic bonus round.

The base game is all about landing different weather symbols, as this is how you trigger the wild transformation feature. Wild multipliers can accumulate as well, and this is not least the case in the bonus round. Each weather symbol triggers more and more lucrative wild transformations, and you can even pay for extra spins to keep going if you got less than 10 weather symbols. The stakes are high, as the price per extra spin keeps rising, but you can win 50,000x your stake.

Wild Yield Slot Features

You win by landing matching symbols from left to right, and these must connect either horizontally, vertically or diagonally. The premium symbols pay between 1.5 and 3 x your stake for 5 of a kind, and the core function of the wild symbols is to step in for pay symbols to help complete or improve wins.

Wilds pay the same as the top-tier pumpkin symbol.

Wild symbols with a counter on them are not removed via the Cascading mechanic together with the winning symbols. Instead, their counter is decreased by -1, and new and/or existing symbols fall down to fill the gaps. This process repeats as long as you keep winning, or until there are no more removable symbols.

You can land Weather symbols of different kinds, and these trigger Tornado, Lightning, Rain, Earthquake, Fire (bonus round only) and Frost modifiers. Each weather symbol forms a specific pattern of wild transformations, and if a wild symbol is affected its counter is increased by +1 each time. The counter serves double duty as both a multiplier and an indicator of how many times the wild can be used before being removed by the cascading mechanic.

You need at 3 scatters in view to trigger the Bonus Round, and this gives you 6 free spins.

Any additional triggering scatters above the minimum of 3 awards +1 extra spin on top of that. Positions that are transformed into wilds are marked off on the mini grid on the left-hand side, and the first Weather symbol you land transforms all marked positions into wilds. A multiplier increases by +1 each time a position is marked after the first time, and you get +1 extra spin per bonus scatter you land.

If you landed less than 10 Weather symbols during the bonus round, you can buy one and one extra free spins for a calculated price (not available in the UK). The marked grid is carried over, and you can keep buying extra spins until you have landed 10 Weather symbols in total. The RTP increases to 96.5 % if you do this, and non-UK players can also buy the bonus round for 90x the stake. This also gives you a 96.5 % RTP.

You get to see a few smaller wins here and there in the base game, before we purchase the bonus round at 1:04 into the 2:28-minute highlights video. We got plenty of weather symbols during the feature, and you can see for yourself how it all played out by hitting the play button below.

Review Summary

The colorful cartoonish visuals charmed us from the get-go, and the animated scarecrow is a funny one as well. We had a very good time with Wild Yield, and the weather symbol wild transformation system livens up the base game on a regular basis.

The wild counter system with a decreasing multiplier is a somewhat clever innovation as well, although some players might prefer wilds that increase their multipliers instead.

At least the wilds can stay active longer this way, and everything comes to a head in the bonus round. The positions just keep getting more and more valuable as you increase the multipliers, and it can be really tempting to go for the extra spins feature. Not much happens without the crucial weather symbol though, and it can get expensive real quick. It’s a highly intense feature for sure, and it’s best to tread carefully when engaging with it.

Pros

• Cascading wins and countdown wilds
• Countdown tally also serves as multiplier
• Weather symbol wild transformation
• FS w/ multiplier wild positions build up
• Win up to 50,000x your stake

Cons

• Beware of adjustable RTP ranges
• Paid extra FS feature not for UK players
