Bison Wilds DoubleMax

Base Game & Features

Bison Wilds DoubleMax is a 5-reel, 3-row Video Slot featuring 20 active pay lines, and playable from £.€0.20 per spin, up to a max bet size of £.€100 per spin.

Generating wins requires 3-5 identical symbols to land from left to right, starting from the leftmost reel. The highest-paying (horse) symbol awards a max win of 5x your bet for a 5-line winning sequence. This game has a theoretical RTP of 94%, a High Volatility rating, and a max win cap of 19,996x your bet.

Wild Wins

During gameplay, winning combinations are removed from the reels, placing 1 of 4 Wild symbols in an empty position. All remaining empty positions are filled with new symbols that cascade in from above. Each Wild symbol substitutes for all other symbols except Scatters.

• Wild: Acts as a regular Wild symbol
• Super Wild: Stacks to fill all available positions on a reel after symbol elimination
• Boost Wild: Enhances the Multiplier Trail by a random value
• Each Way Wild: Causes wins to occur from both ways when involved in a win

Multiplier Trail

In the base game, every winning sequence doubles the Multiplier on the multiplier trail, resetting after a losing cascade.

Golden Bet

Before or after a game round, players can activate the Golden Bet feature for an additional 25% of their current bet. Once active, your chances of triggering Free Spins are doubled.

Bonus Buy

Buy your way into the Free Spins round for an additional 100x your bet, triggering 7 Free Spins.

Free Spins

Landing 3, 4, or 5 Scatters in the base game triggers the Free Spins round, awarding 7, 10, and 13 Free Spins respectively. In Free Spins, the Multiplier Trail begins at x1 and builds throughout the round, without resetting between spins.

Free Spins Gamble

Landing 3 or 4 Scatters will award players access to the Free Spins Gamble feature. Players can gamble their current Free Spins (excluding 13 Free Spins) for more via a special gamble wheel.

Land the cursor within a green segment to win the next available number of Free Spins. However, landing the cursor within a red segment will end the Free Spins round, sending you back to the base game empty-handed.

Conclusion

Yggdrasil Gaming’s DoubleMax mechanic has taken on many forms in previous titles from multiple providers, but what does Bison Wilds DoubleMax bring to the table?

Bison Wilds DoubleMax is the first of its kind to award up to 4 unique Wild symbols after each winning sequence. Standard wilds appear more often, yet there’s still a possibility of being awarded a Super, Boost, or Each Way Wild.

The 3 additional Wilds support players by enhancing their chances of creating further wins in a single spin. This, combined with the value of the Multiplier Trail makes for some pretty epic wins, to the tune of 19,996x in max wins.

Entering Free Spins, you will be met with a Free Spins Gamble feature. However, this is only available to players who achieve 4 or more Scatters. This allows players to gamble their current free spins for more, but there is the risk of walking away empty-handed.

Alternatively, players within the Bonus Buy market can head straight into Free Spins for 100x their bet. UK players are devoid of such options, however, there is the option of the Golden Bet which doubles your chances of triggering Free Spins naturally.

In Free Spins, the Multiplier Trail does not reset between spins, increasing your chances of walking away 19,996x better off. All in all, Reflex Gaming has compiled a popular theme with quality graphics, and thrilling features to create a stand-out slot with plenty of potential!
