Innovative Spanish iGaming software developer, Red Rake Gaming, just announced its latest title, Wild Animals, amid much fanfare. The announcement comes barely a week after the developers announced Million Dracula, a similar slot title based on an entirely different theme.
Like most slots, Wild Animals features a 5-reel, 3-row format, packing 243 ways to win and introduces Wild Fusion – an iteration of the widely popular symbol fusion mini-game.
Red Rake Gaming tries to replicate a forest ecosystem in Wild Animals with its jungle theme. In-game Bonus and Wild symbols include Wolf, Bear, Horse, Moose, Mountain Lion, and Eagle. The feeling is further accentuated with relatable soundtracks amidst the quaint backdrop.
Bonus, Scatter, and Payouts
The scratched Wild symbol replaces every other symbol, except Bonus, triggering massive wins. Landing the Bonus symbol on reels 1,3, and 5 activates the Wild Fusion minigame, where the excitement continues to grow with every stacked wolf symbol. The more wolves a player accumulates, the greater the wins!
Players have the chance to win up to 2000x total stake in Wild Fusion, while the howling wolf symbol offers up to 3 extra spins. Buy-ins range between 0.30 to 30 coins per spin while the game returns a maximum of 300 coins sans multipliers. This low volatile game has a maximum RTP of 95.3%.
Synopsis
Although the Valencia-based developers primarily cater to the native Spanish audience, they have diversified to other languages recently. Wild Animals is an ideal example of the move. Although the location behind the game’s setting is unconfirmed, most of the high-value symbols depict species native to North America.
The golden claw slashing the Wild symbol is a novel addition and pays tribute to the mighty Golden Eagle, a bird of prey famous in the Northern Hemisphere. Overall, Wild Animals doesn’t offer novel features to discuss, while the payouts aren’t Earth-shattering. However, it’s ideal for amateurs and first-timers looking for an introduction to video slots.
About Red Rake Gaming
Red Rake Gaming is preparing its iGaming arsenal for upcoming independent tournaments. Million Dracula was launched with a similar intention. Owing to the global social distancing norms, the demand for online gaming is on a constant rise, paving the way for online tournaments. Red Rake gaming joined the bandwagon in May, announcing its latest initiative.
The developers are on a mission to incorporate unique functionalities in their upcoming titles that will help partners host customized tournaments using Red Rake’s content. Perhaps the best example of the policy shift is Million Dracula.
This 6-reel, 4-row title, expandable up to 6×10, offers up to one million ways to win, with bonus features like Dracula Wilds, free spins, and Cup Bonus symbols to further up the ante. As the name suggests, Million Dracula is designed around Count Dracula’s tale and draws inspiration from the monarch’s castle. Although popular titles around the theme are easily available, the game’s advanced graphics help distinguish Red Rake’s content from the rest. It’s the same story with Wild Animals!
