The Wolf Run slots game is one of the most enduringly popular games in the online casino world. Despite being one of the earliest titles on Kerching, it retains an incredibly loyal following among players who know real quality when they see it.
So what is it that sets Wolf Run apart from so many other online slots?
Well, a key factor is that this 5-reel 40-payline title boasts a truly unique setting; the backdrop to Wolf Run is a sweeping Native American prairie that draws gasps of delight from veteran online slots players. Moreover, this theme is also reflected elsewhere in the game.
The main reels of Wolf Run slots
The Wolf Run slots main game is packed with imagery that will be instantly familiar to anyone who has visited this particular part of the world. As Kerching online casino members will no doubt be aware, a number of wild animals make an appearance on the reels. The white wolf and its black counterpart are worth keeping an eye out for because five on a payline awards a whopping 400x multiplier. Meanwhile, a full payline featuring wolves howling at a moon is even more lucrative because it translates into a remarkable 1,000x payout.
But don't be fooled into thinking that wolves are the only valuable symbols on Wolf Run slots. Not one but two totem poles are depicted on the reels and a complete payline of each is worth a cool 250x multiplier. It's also possible to win big sums from the rank and face cards.
The Wolf Run bonus game
A spectacular free spins bonus can be triggered on Wolf Run slots by obtaining a trio of bonus symbols on the middle three reels. These additional turns are played using the exact same stake and number of lines as were used in the main game, meaning that online slots players who bet big can expect to enjoy the largest returns.
What's more, your original bet will be doubled if you obtain a further three symbols in the Wolf Run bonus itself, and further goes may also be awarded. In fact, Kerching online casino players can earn up to 255 consecutive free spins in this incredibly generous bonus feature.
Wolf Run inspiration
The wolf has to be one of the most beautiful and mysterious animals in existence, so it's no wonder Wolf Run has proved so popular with animal-loving Kerching members. Of course, wolves still exist today, in places such as Canada, Russia and Eastern Europe, but sadly the grey wolf has not been common in the USA for many years. Even so, Wolf Run is set in the American prairies, and makes use of Native American culture such as totem poles. This may be because many tribes treated the wolf with caution and respect; however, the Navajo people thought wolves were witches in disguise! On the other hand, some believe they are gentle giants, as one legend holds that a female wolf raised Romulus and Remus, the twins who founded Rome.
Whatever you believe about whether they're good or bad, there's no denying the grey wolf is a fascinating creature. These carnivores can grow up to 1.6m in length - much bigger than a Labrador or Alsatian - and shed most of their thick grey fur in the summer. They tend to mate for life, and howl to communicate over long distances, particularly to spread a warning of danger.
Slots games on the wild side
Meanwhile, Kerching has another slots game dedicated to scary predators. The Cats slots game celebrates the fierce but beautiful big cats of the world, including languorous lions, treacherous tigers and perilous panthers. The Split Symbols feature also means paylines of up to ten matching cats can be aligned, resulting in some truly wild payouts.
In fact, the natural world is the theme of quite a few Kerching online slots games, as we like to try to provide titles that cater for everybody. That's why alongside adventure thrillers like Transformers - Ultimate Payback or Bitten, you'll find more gentle titles like White Orchid, Banana Rama Deluxe or Super Hoot Loot.
Mind you, one of the wildest games at Kerching would have to be Kitty Glitter slots; although these cats aren't wild in the original sense of the word. A bonus feature in the game means that more felines on the reels turn Wild - meaning they cause more payouts - as you keep playing. Wilds can be substituted for any other symbol, so they're one of the most lucrative symbols you can find on the reels.
Another unlikely candidate for the wildest slots game is Lil' Lady. This cute bug-themed title includes Stacked Wilds - a special feature meaning a huge block of Wilds lands on the reels together. These blocks span several paylines, and therefore hopefully result in multiple simultaneous payouts.
IGT: slots experts
Wolf Run is a classic example of an IGT slots game, combining excitement, an absorbing theme and cash prizes all in one title. As part of IGT - the world's biggest gaming group - Kerching gets first dibs on the company's award-winning slots titles, so our members have come to expect a high level of quality and gameplay sophistication.
IGT started out making land-based slot machines and video poker cabinets, and by 2010 had produced over 2 million units. These games can be found in casinos far and wide, from Las Vegas to London, but these titles really took off when IGT created an online division and made their slots available through the internet. A few classic IGT games that were transformed from land-based slot machines to online slots are:
- Cleopatra
- Rainbow Riches - Win Big Shindig
- Wheel of Fortune
Furthermore, our catalogue is bursting with brand new slots exclusives from Wild Wolf to Star Trek. As you'd expect from one of the world's best casino game providers, each IGT title boasts crystal clear graphics, authentic sound effects, multiple paylines and bonus rounds. Not forgetting, of course, a whole host of characters and reel symbols to bring your gaming session to life!
