Developer
Play n GO, one of several successful developers of Swedish origins, has been creating excellent slots for more than two decades. They’ve become one of the top names of this industry, and they keep releasing several new slots each month, often with big rewards.
How To Play It
Once again, the betting range that’s being used here doesn’t appear to have much of a connection to the number of lines, even more so since we get ways to win. You’re going to pick the upcoming spin’s wager, in a range from $0.10 to $100, and that’s about it.
In exchange, the game will give you 5 reels with 2-4-4-4-2 symbols, where 256 ways to win are available in total. The game area can expand up to 1024 ways to win, during certain moments. To get a win, you need 3+ matching symbols, which have to land on consecutive reels, starting from the leftmost one.
Special Features
Beest Mode, when active, will boost the game area to 5×4 reels and 1024 ways to win, and it’s at this point that a jackpot of up to 10,240x the stake becomes possible. In this mode, the regular symbols are removed, and you’re left only with jackpot symbols, wilds, scatters and blanks. You can have up to 8 spins in this mode, if you get 3+ scatters to trigger them first. The Beest Mode spins can be retriggered, for as many times as you keep getting new sets of 3+ scatters.
Regular Stampeding Free Spins are also present inside. 8 to 20 free spins are part of this feature, once again requiring the presence of 3 to 5 scatters. Here, you play with all ways to win (1024), as the game area removes the blocked positions. The odds of Beast Mode activating are much better at this point.
There are wilds as well inside, symbols that can show up in either regular or multiplier versions (2x boosts to wins). These are to be used as replacement symbols, which can contribute to the formation of new wins.
Maximum Payouts
The Beest Mode is your friend, if you’re looking to get the most out of this slot. There, you’re looking at much better chances of filling up the reels with top symbols. A screen filled with Wildebeest icons, along with the appropriate 2x wild multipliers, could lead to wins of up to 10,240x the stake.
The RTP is typically 96.12%, but the developer allows casinos to pick lower or higher values as well, so always check that they’re at the level we mentioned.
Summary
Win-a-Beest looks fairly impressive, good enough to be appreciated by veterans and casual players alike, especially as it couples Medium volatility with wins of over 10,000x the stake.
