Wolf Canyon Hold & Win Slot Review 2022

Get ready to visit the majestic Canyon where Native Indians live in perfect harmony with the Wolves, in iSoftBet’s latest release, Wolf Canyon Hold & Win!

Wolf Canyon Hold & Win is a more spiritual addition to iSoftBet’s extensive Hold & Win collection, but will it be one of the better ones? Moon Spirit Hold & Win focused on the Moon which is of significant importance in Native American Culture.

Following on from this, Wolf Canyon Hold & Win now draws our attention to another important part of Native American Culture, which is Wolves. In most Native American Cultures, wolves are believed to be medicine and are associated with successful hunting, loyalty, courage and above all, strength.

It’s hard not to judge Wolf Canyon before we’ve reviewed it because of the overused Hold & Win mechanic, but we’re willing to keep an open mind if you are. We already know that Wolf Canyon Hold & Win touches upon Native American Culture, but what else can we expect to see?

The view in the background is quite breath-taking and the graphics do well to make it look realistic, with rocky mountains, swaying trees, a little fog and the odd migration of birds flying overhead. Sound effects and music also capture the theme really well.

Will Wolf Canyon Hold & Win have us howling at the moon? Let’s play on and find out!

Dreamcatcher Feature

Another interesting part of the base game is the Dreamcatcher feature. During any random spin in the base game, the Dreamcatcher can award an instant Cash Prize of either 8x, 88x, 888x or 8,888x your bet.

Pay close attention to the Dreamcatcher on the right side of the screen, it may shake during the base game but it doesn’t always guarantee the feature.

Wolf Canyon Hold & Win: Wolf Feature Pick

When it comes down to theme, Wolf Canyon Hold & Win isnt exactly oozing uniqueness considering there’s a fair few Native American slots on the market right now, but where it lacks in theme it soon makes up for in Gameplay in some ways. Wolf Canyon Hold & Win isn’t a complete lost cause thanks to the Totem Wilds and Dreamcatcher feature which can deliver some really nice hits when they want to.

What’s nice about Wolf Canyon is that its not just a Hold & Win slot, alongside this there is also a Free Spins round which will definitely open a window to players who wouldn’t necessarily go for a Hold & Win slot. iSoftBet has definitely earned themselves some brownie points here.

Statistically, Wolf Canyon Hold & Win isn’t looking too shabby, with an above average RTP of 96.00% and a maximum win capacity of 8,888x. The maximum win capacity may not seem like much compared to other slots, but for a Medium Volatility game, this seems about right.
