Wolf Gold's 5x3 animal and Western reels

Pick Wolf Gold if you want an animal and Western theme on a 5x3 grid. Wins run along 25 fixed lines, read from left to right. A win needs three matching symbols on a line, the fewest that pays. The paytable lists Buffalo, Eagle, Horse and Puma, then the card symbols A, K, Q and J. The wolf stacks over two or three rows as a wild in normal spins.

Decide whether the free spins and Money Respin suit you, since both change the reels. Three scatters on reels 1, 3 and 5 award 5 free spins, and reels 2, 3 and 4 spin together as a single giant symbol. Three more scatters retrigger for 3 spins, with no limit. Six or more money symbols start the Money Respin with 3 respins.

Play guide

Wolf Gold runs a round in order

Bigwin Casino lays out each round in plain order, so you know every step before the first spin.

  1. Bet range from A$5

    Decide your bet between A$5 and A$100 before the first spin. The grid always runs 25 fixed lines, so the stake you pick sets what each win pays.

  2. Wolves covering two or three rows

    Line up matching symbols from the left on any of the 25 fixed lines. Stacked wolves cover two or three rows, and a blazing reel fills with a giant wolf wild.

  3. Which symbols can complete a line?

    Watch every normal spin for Wild and Stacked Wild symbols and blazing reels. Each one can complete a line, so check the lines after every spin.

  4. Land Scatters on reels 1, 3 and 5

    Land three Scatters on reels 1, 3 and 5 to start 5 Free Spins. Reels 2, 3 and 4 spin as one giant symbol, and three more Scatters add 3 spins.

  5. Keep your balance in check

    Set your limit before the first spin. Nobody can know in advance when Free Spins or a Money Respin will come, so the limit applies from the first spin.

Before the bonus triggers

Wolf Gold free spins, respins and features

After this section, you will know how each mode starts and what it awards.

Reels 2-3-4 become one symbol

Three scatters on reels 1, 3, 5 trigger Free Spins, which award 5 spins. During them, reels 2-3-4 spin together as a single giant symbol. Each set of 3 scatters adds 3 more spins, with no limit on retriggers. A Money Respin is available during Free Spins.

Base Game spins5 free spins

MEGA jackpot on a full 15/15

6+ money symbols trigger the Money Respin. Normal symbols fade and 3 respins begin. New money symbols reset the counter to 3. It ends when respins reach zero or all 15 positions are filled. A full 15/15 awards the MEGA jackpot on top of the sum of coin values.

Base or Free SpinsMEGA jackpot

Where do stacked wilds appear?

The Base Game uses a 5x3 grid with 25 fixed lines, and wins pay left to right. Stacked wilds, a wolf covering 2-3 rows, and blazing reels, a full-reel giant wolf wild with an amber glow, appear in normal spins.

Wolf Gold payback per A$100 staked

Two options here

Wolf Gold starts with a free practice round

The usual worry is that a test round will quietly drain the balance.

Pick the demo to spin without money, knowing it pays nothing. Real play needs an account here and that you are 18 or older.

Start playing

A rarely reached maximum win ceiling

Before you set a stake on Wolf Gold, accept that how often the bonus round comes is not known in advance. Every spin is random, so the result of one session can differ widely from the RTP shown on the table. A short run of spins can hold no bonus at all, and a long run can bring several.

Check the game rules before you bet, because the RTP version running on Bigwin Casino is shown only there. Each version of the series has its own RTP figure, so the number in the table applies to one version alone. Read the rules first, then compare the figure with the version you play.

Treat the maximum win of Wolf Gold as a ceiling you may never see, not as a target. It is reached very rarely, and nobody can predict the session in which it comes. Set your stake and your session limit before the first spin, then keep both.

Wolf Gold basics

Wolf Gold questions before the first reel

Bigwin Casino gives straight answers, so you know the rules before your first spin.

What bets can I place on Wolf Gold?

Choose a stake from the minimum of A$5 up to the maximum of A$100. The tables on this page use A$5 and A$10 as examples only, not as the limits of the game.

What is the maximum win on Wolf Gold?

Know the Money Respin before you bet, since it is the only feature with a MEGA jackpot. Filling all 15 positions awards the MEGA jackpot on top of the sum of coin values. Neither the frequency nor the size of wins can be known in advance.

How does Wolf Gold differ from its other versions?

Compare the RTP first, since the Wolf Gold 4 Pack and Wolf Gold Ultimate pay back more than this version. The Wolf Gold Scratchcard has a lower RTP of 67.03 and a maximum win of 250,000 times the bet. Check each version's rules before you stake.

How do I get free spins on Wolf Gold?

Land three scatters on reels 1, 3 and 5 to start the Free Spins round, which awards 5 spins. During those spins, reels 2, 3 and 4 spin together as one giant symbol. Three more scatters add 3 more spins, with no limit on how often this happens.

What is the RTP of Wolf Gold and its versions?

Read the RTP as a long-run average, not as a return for any one session. Wolf Gold has an RTP of 96.00 per cent, so it returns A$96 for every A$100 staked over the long run.

Can I try Wolf Gold in demo mode first?

Open Wolf Gold in the lobby and start at the minimum stake of A$5 before you raise the bet. The rules on this page cover the whole game, from the 5x3 grid to the Free Spins and the Money Respin.
