Wild Shorty Review
Not to be mistaken for a game about a notorious drug lord, Wild Shorty is a high-stakes gambling experience. There is nothing relaxed about this game, and everything hinges on the final spin during the bonus round. The base game keeps you going with wild features, the sticky wild respins offering the best potential for repeated wins.
Being "short" of wilds on the final free spin can ruin your session. The humorous, cartoon-style visuals match the gameplay well, providing a lighthearted feel to balance the tension of the free spins round. The final spin can award up to 10,000x your bet, but it can also result in a small win. This will likely deter some players, while attracting others.
Wild Shorty Features
The wild can appear on all 5 reels, substituting for all regular pay symbols. The wild is also the highest paying symbol, awarding 40x your bet for 5 on a payline. You might land TNT barrels that transform into 2x2 wild blocks, equal to 4 regular wilds. A crate of TNT can also appear in the base game, exploding to turn itself and all symbols above into wilds.
When you land 2 bomb scatters (1 short of triggering the bonus round), they become sticky wilds, and a respin is awarded. You get new respins as long as more wilds land, which also become sticky. This can lead to repeat wins, and the feature ends when no new wilds land on a respin.
You trigger the Bonus Round when you land 3, 4 or 5 bomb scatters anywhere in view, awarding 7, 9 or 11 free spins, respectively.
The triggering scatters turn into small sticky bomb icons overlaying their reel positions. The bonus round is about collecting as many of these bomb icons as possible, and more than one on the same reel position increases the multiplier by +1 up to 5x. Land 3+ scatters on a free spin to increase your tally by 3 extra spins.
Everything leads to the final spin, where all the bomb reel positions turn into wilds and/or multiplier wilds. This often generates the bulk of your bonus round payout, and multiple multiplier wilds in a win multiply their values. This is key to winning big, as a screen full of regular wilds pays "only" 600x your bet.
The Wild Shorty Experience
After a while, we tried out the bonus round. We racked up a decent number of wilds with a couple of 2x multiplier wilds.
Review Summary
In our experience, expect little from the regular free spins. It all comes down to the final spin, where all bombs turn into wilds and multiplier wilds. Often, you'll win nothing before that final spin, making the bonus round a nerve-racking showdown.
Having more than 7 spins seems helpful, as we usually won more with 9 free spins. Getting extra spins serves the same purpose, but sometimes the bomb icons are hard to get. Players who enjoy a climactic final spin will likely enjoy this game, as you can win up to 10,000x your stake.
| Pros | Cons |
|---|---|
| Random expanding wilds and 2x2 wilds | Everything depends on the final free spin |
| Respins with sticky wild feature | A screen full of non-multiplier wilds awards only 600x |
| Bonus round with climactic final spin wild release | |
| Win up to 10,000x your stake |

A game that centers around a cartoon-style inmate. You will benefit from randomly triggered multiplier bomb free spins, while the regular bonus round is all about the final spin wild release. In addition, you can win fixed jackpots.
A game where the base game cycles between symbols. These symbols are collected and released, and the bonus round comes with collected symbols. This can lead to payouts.
A version of the popular jackpot game, and the Mega Jackpot starts at £1M. You can look forward to a respin feature where framed positions turn wild on the final spin, and the bonus round also comes with a similar final spin wild release.
