The skeleton bandit is wild and can replace any of the ordinary symbols.
Random Wild Multipliers
Randomly during the base game a multiplier wild will show up on the board. Like the ordinary wild, this will replace any symbol in making a winning combination, but it also multiplies the win by its value.
Free Spins
Three Wanted Scatters will trigger a free spin round. During this bonus round, wilds are locked in position and multiply wins by 2, 5, 25, or even 100 times your bet. You make progress towards higher multipliers by getting additional Wanted Scatters. You start off with five free spins, and every time you reach a new multiplier level you get another five free spins.
A Shootout From Beyond The Grave
The theme of this slot seems to be that of a western, except the head outlaw in this case is some sort of unholy skeleton monster. And while Night of the Living Dead meets High Noon seems like an unlikely pairing, it does kind of make sense. Why shouldn’t the undead wield firearms? And terrorizing the townsfolk is something that both outlaws and the demonically possessed love to do. Although you have to wonder, if it is just the leader of the gang that is “not human”, then what are the rest of the outlaws thinking? Teaming up with a ghoul seems like a pretty dumb move.
Conclusion
Despite a little bit of a goofy theme and not much of a back story, Wanted Wildz is still a big hit with us. The graphical design in this game is excellent. Everything just looks great, crisp colors, great imagery, and excellent designs. The gameplay is top notch as well. There is a bit of a nail biter effect during the bonus rounds, because you never know whether you will make it to the next round, get an additional five spins, and increase the multiplier.
