Ragnawolves WildEnergy Review

There are many strange creatures to be found if you dig deep enough into the rich cultural vein that is Norse mythology, but actual ‘Ragnawolves’ are not found there as far as we can tell. Yggdrasil has basically invented this idea for their latest Norse mythology installment; Ragnawolves WildEnergy. It seems clear from the fiery visual presentation, as well as the title of the game, that “the end is near”, and that this is the final Ragnarok that spares neither men nor gods.

The base game revolves around the Wild Respins concept, which is triggered by both incrementing Multiplier Wilds and Countdown Wilds. The multiplier wild increments according to the “lazy caterer's sequence”, which is akin to Yggdrasil’s DoubleMax system. Countdown Wilds can prolong the session with up to 4 respins per symbol, and you get a higher hit rate of both symbols in the bonus round. The 10,000x potential is solid as well, and this is a powerful Norse end times release that we recommend you check out immediately.

Ragnawolves WildEnergy Slot Features

The premium symbols pay between 1 and 2 x your stake for 5 of a kind wins, and wild symbols play a major role in all stages of this game. As their core function, however, wilds step in for pay symbols to help complete and/or improve wins, and we’ll cover the features below.

First out is the Multiplier Wild, and it can land on reel 3 only.

This goes on indefinitely as long as the multiplier wild is involved in a win, and its multiplier keeps incrementing according to the “lazy caterer's sequence”: 2, 4, 7, 11, 16, 22, 29, 37, 46, 56, 67, 79, 92, … etc. with no upper limit. The multiplier boosts all line wins the multiplier wild partakes in.

The Countdown Wild symbol can appear on both reels 2 and 4, and any win involving countdown wilds also triggers a respin. They come with countdown numbers of 2, 3, or 4, and this tells you how many respins the wild provides if involved in a win.

You can land both multiplier wilds and countdown wilds at the same time, or during the same respins session to prolong the respins feature.

The Bonus Round triggers when you land 3 scatters on reels 2, 3, and 4, respectively, and this gives you 10 free spins. The bonus round plays out similarly to the base game, but you can expect more wilds of both kinds to land during the feature.

Non-UK players, and anyone eligible, can pay 100x the stake to buy the regular bonus round. You can also pay 500x the stake to get 13 free spins where the multiplier value on the multiplier wilds is persistent for the duration of the feature.

You get to see the countdown wild feature in the base game, before we purchase the top-tier bonus round at 0:33 into the 3:27-minute highlights video. This gave us 13 free spins, and the feature plays out for the remainder of the video. You can see for yourself how we fared by hitting the play button below.

Review Summary

If anyone can conjure up powerful Norse mythology themes that are deeply rooted in our collective psyche it should be Yggdrasil, and they do not disappoint with Ragnawolves WildEnergy. The symbol values are admittedly not all that high in this game, but that’s necessary to balance out what can easily turn into a monster wild multiplier on lucky days. Incrementing multipliers are not to be underestimated after all, as we have already seen with Yggdrasil’s DoubleMax series.

The fiery backdrop adds to the mystical appeal of this game, and you get to see the Yggdrasil World Tree itself behind the grid in the bonus round. Getting more of both kinds of wilds can certainly do serious damage, but we wish there was a way to also trigger the top-tier bonus buy round organically.

Pros

• Incrementing multiplier wild respins
• Countdown Wilds award up to 4 respins
• FS w/ more of both types of wilds
• Win up to 10,000x your stake

Cons

• Beware of customizable RTP ranges
