Wild Pumpkins

Wild Pumpkins Review

Many companies release something for the Halloween season, and a studio decided to launch a slot called Wild Pumpkins just in time for the 2022 Halloween period. It’s a fun game, and it takes place on a large playing field with 6 reels, 4 rows and as many as 4,096 ways to win!

The Halloween theme is in full swing in Wild Pumpkins, and the designers did a great job making the package look slick and polished. There are many small animations in the mix, and the soundtrack it all comes with boosts the atmosphere rather nicely as well. If you’re up for something pleasantly scary, Wild Pumpkins will be right up your alley!

The mathematical model of Wild Pumpkins combines a medium volatility level with a juicy 10,000x jackpot, which is rather intriguing. You can jump in for many different stakes, too, as the betting range runs from just £0.20 per spin all the way up to £200. Unfortunately, the theoretical RTP of Wild Pumpkins is only 95.55%, which is below the industry average.

Wild Pumpkins Slot Features

The game’s paytable offers as many as 11 pay symbols, which are divided into 5 low pays, 3 mid pays, and 3 high pays. For low pays, there are your basic card ranks from Tens to Aces, and they can net you up to 1x your bet for a full combination. For mid pays, there are fangs, vials and candies, which can be worth up to 2x your bet per combination. Finally, the slot’s high pays offer bats, flowers and skulls. Skulls are the top-paying symbols here, and you’ll get a 7.5x payout for a set of six.

For special symbols, there are Pumpkin Wilds and Crow Scatters. Pumpkin Wilds can substitute for other symbols to complete winning combinations, but they can land only on reels 2-5. They are Multiplier Wilds, however, and they offer random win multipliers from 1x to 3x. If you get more than one Pumpkin Wild involved in a win, their win multipliers will be multiplied by each other before they are applied.

If you manage to land 3 or more Crow Scatters, you’ll trigger the Free Spins feature with up to 20 free spins. During free spins, all Pumpkin Wilds will become Sticky upon landing, and each Crow Scatter will add one extra free spin to your tally.

Finally, you can use the Buy Bonus option to purchase the Free Spins feature outright for 100x your bet.

Review Summary

Ultimately, Wild Pumpkins is a fun Halloween slot with one major weak point in its subpar theoretical RTP that might put some players off right away. It’s a bit of a shame, too, as we have nothing to complain about aside from that. After all, it’s always nice to be able to enjoy some Multiplier Wilds and free spins with Sticky Wilds!
