Braving the jungles of Asia has never been more beautiful, serene or lucrative. A tranquil soundtrack nicely matches the beautiful graphics found in this stunning Microgaming slot. Wild Orient offers players a truly unique experience. From lining up various Asian animals to scoring up to 30 free spins, Wild Orient really makes things worthwhile. What’s even better is that this slot can be played on a range of devices, both mobile and desktop. Keep reading to find out all about this sublime slot and how to make the most of it.
Wild Orient really has a lot going for it. As is relatively common with Microgaming slots, this bucks the trend of having specific paylines and instead offers a 5-reel and 243 ways to win setup. This is coupled with a number of potentially lucrative in-game features that include a respin option, wilds and free spins galore. All of this is set to a stunning Asian jungle backdrop and matched with beautiful symbols dropping onto the reels. You’re also able to claim a pretty big maximum win if you’re lucky.
This slot offers truly breathtaking graphics, they’re just very pretty! There are the usual low-paying symbols in the form of various card symbols including A, K, Q, J, 10 and 9 all in bright, vibrant colours. However, it’s the various animals that you really want to watch out for and land, as these are the ones offering those high payouts. Tigers, elephants, pandas, storks and baboons, each one beautifully illustrated, feature on the reels. Landing three to five of these on a payline is your ticket to success.
Then, we come to the even more important symbols – the bonus icons. The Wild Orient symbol is the wild and this will replace all the icons on the reels helping to create even more winning combinations. It should be noted that the exception is the Rogue Elephant icon, which is the scatter, and the wild will not replace this. Landing at least three of these Rogue Elephants will award you 15 bonus spins plus a triple multiplier, and a chance to re-trigger this feature, potentially awarding you 30 bonus spins.
This slot used to be available on Queen Play.
We all love free spins and Wild Orient doesn’t disappoint on this front. Not only will you get the chance to win some bonus spins when landing the Rogue Elephant scatter, but there’s a chance to earn some respins, too. The Respin feature occurs right after any spin. You can decide whether you want to respin that reel, at an extra cost of course. But it does give you the option of attempting to make a winning combination on reels that already look pretty good. It’s also possible to land a third scatter during this phase.
There is no jackpot, per se, in Wild Orient as there is no fixed amount sitting there, waiting to be claimed. That doesn’t mean that there isn’t a top prize to grab, though. This top amount is set at a pretty decent 60,000 credits, though if you want to be hitting those big wins, you’ll need to be betting the max bet, too. But there are ways to increase the multipliers and the amount that you can win per spin and these include utilising that respins feature, depending on your bankroll of course.
Strictly speaking, there are no specific paylines on Wild Orient. The game, rather than having paylines, is setup with 243 different ways to win. These are fixed so when you place your bet on this game, you’ll be playing every one of these options. This can really help to improve your chances of getting a winning combination and generally just adds to the overall playability of this game. With these 243 ways to win, don’t squander your opportunities, go in fully charged and see what magic the Asian jungle can bring you!
RTP or return to player rate is the amount of money you can, theoretically, walk away with after playing the slot for a session. The RTP for Wild Orient is set between 96 and 97% depending on the features in play at the time. Regardless, this is a high RTP and one that should pique your interest when looking for a slot to play. However, it is theoretical and whilst you could walk away with £96 after playing £100, it’s not very likely, especially if you only play for a short time.
Volatility is important when it comes to picking a game. Wild Orient has a medium to high volatility or variance, which means that the payouts won’t come as frequently as they would if you were playing a low volatility game. However, unlike the low variance games, this slot will payout at a relatively high value when you do manage to land a win. You will have to be patient through the slower, dry periods of the game, and will need a bankroll that can tide you through.
Wild Orient offers some decent wins when you get things going. With the bonus spins and the potential for a whopping 160 times your bet in the base game, things are looking good. It only gets better in the free spins feature where odds rise to 480 times your bet. For nature lovers, this game is a must. The stunning graphics and ambient soundtrack help to evoke the nature of the jungle, all the while, hopefully, earning you some extra cash! Why not try it out now and see how you fair!
