Wolf Power: Hold and Win

Wolf Power: Hold and Win Review

Wolf Power: Hold and Win is yet another addition to the Hold and Win collection of games from Playson. The slot revolves around the streak-style respins bonus, so it basically brings similar experience as other games in the series do. With that said, aside from the wildlife theme, there's really nothing new.

Design-wise, Wolf Power: Hold and Win looks just awesome, with perfectly polished graphics. Symbols on the reels are sharp and detailed, though, the backdrop is less impressive. Behind the reels, we see a static image of a forest and mountains in the rear, all done in blue. Anyway, dominating the view is a standard 5x3 reel set, and players have 20 ways to play on each spin.

Wolf Power: Hold and Win Slot - Reel Screen

Playable on any device, the slot comes with a betting range of €0.2 to €100 per spin, which should appeal to both high-rollers and less risky players. As for the math, Wolf Power: Hold and Win offers lower-than-average figures. While the volatility is in the medium-high range, the RTP is poor at 95.04%, so don't expect to get your returns too often. Meanwhile, the max win is capped at 1,272x the bet.

The pay symbols start at the lower end with classic A-J card royals, and next are four animal symbols, which are the premiums. Those include in ascending order owls, eagles, goats, and bears. All symbols pay from 3-of-a-kind and more, and 5-of-a-kind symbol wins are worth from 2.5x to 12.5x your bet.

Wolf Power: Hold and Win Slot Features

Wolf symbols are Wilds, which can appear on all reels to substitute for any other regular symbols to help you achieve payouts. Moreover, Wilds can land stacked, up to 1x3 in size.

Mount symbols are Scatters, and landing 3 of those simultaneously on reels 2, 3, and 4 triggers 8 Free Spins. The free games bonus operates in a similar way to the base game, though, a major difference is that Wilds always nudge to cover the reel entirely whenever they appear in view. Unfortunately, retriggers are not possible.

Central to the gameplay is the Hold and Win feature, triggered when 6 or more cash symbols or Power symbols land on the reels during the base game or free spins. Players receive 3 Respins to start with and proceed to special reels where only bonus symbols appear.

Each new bonus symbol resets the respins counter back to 3. If enough Power symbols are present on the reels at the end of the feature, players can win one of the following jackpot prizes:

• 2 Power symbols - Mini Jackpot of 20x the bet
• 3 Power symbols - Minor Jackpot of 50x the bet
• 4 Power symbols - Major Jackpot of 150x the bet
• 5 Power symbols - Grand Jackpot of 500x the bet

Finally, filling the reels entirely with cash and Power symbols provides a 2x Multiplier, which is applied to the total bonus win.

Review Summary

In conclusion, Wolf Power: Hold and Win may look good on the surface, but once you take a peek under the hood you'll quickly notice it offers pretty much the same gameplay that other Playson games do, yet hidden under a new skin. The features are nice and fun, but there's nothing really innovative here. More than that, the math is fairly bad, with a low max win and meager payback. Anyway, there are much better alternatives to Wolf Power out there if you like the Hold and Win style.
