How to Play the Wild Rails Slot Game
Wild Rails is a unique train-ride inspired slot, developed by Play'n Go. It has five reels and 30 paylines, and bets start from 30p a spin. This game has an Art-Deco style and depicts taking the highest of society on the ultimate train journey, back in the day. As well as the glamorous train and travellers, you also have the potential to trigger wild wins and free spins among western trains hurtling across the reels.
This steam train slot combines a retro look and feel with modern graphics and features. Firstly, the fact that the reels spin horizontally, rather than vertically, is something which could take a little getting used to. Obviously, it makes much more sense for the trains to travel from left to right instead of top to bottom! We are happy with them moving across the bridge, not off it.
This unique change-up in the design of the reels makes the Wild Rails slot stand out. If you liked the reel design of Finn and the Swirly Spin, you should be able to get used to this one, too!
Set Your Bet
We’ve got 30 fixed paylines in Wild Rails, and all you need to do to create your bet is select the value from the meter below the reels. The bets work out as a minimum of 1p per payline, with the smallest stake per spin being 30p, up to a maximum of £90. Use the + and – buttons to explore the values in between and choose one which suits you.
If you fancy yourself as a bit of a trainspotter, then you could set your game to auto-spin and sit back as the trains travel across the tracks to, hopefully, bring you some prizes!
A Winning Adventure
As is the case with most productions from Play’n Go, you will need to match up at least three of the same symbols on a payline to win. Top prizes will be awarded if you can land five of a kind across a payline.
Although the direction the reels move is different to normal, the paylines still run from left to right. The members of high society travelling on this luxurious train are the high-value symbols in Wild Rails.
A woman in purple holding a fan is worth the most, with maximum payouts of 20 times your stake for a five-symbol match.
Next, a lady in red toasting a glass of fizz could award you with 15 times the bet if you can toast five glasses on a payline.
The fella in green with a big grin on his face can pay out up to 10 times the stake, and the bearded man in blue offers up to 5 times.
As well as these classy characters, the lower-value symbols include card values from 10 up to Ace, with prizes ranging from 1 to 4 times the bet for five-symbol matches.
Train-ride Treats
Amongst the standard symbols in play, we have also got some special bonus features to look out for on this four-track railway bridge. If you loved the many wild features in Wild Bazaar, we’re sure you’ll love these.
Wild Trains
If you are a seasoned slots player, you will know that the wild can substitute for any of the standard symbols to create winning combinations. In Wild Rails, the wild symbol is a train carriage with ‘wild’ written on it in gold. Land three or more of these across a payline and you could be looking at up to 30 times your stake in return.
With every spin of the reels, there is potential for up to four entirely wild trains to stop on the reels, in which case there is potential to win up to 5000 times your bet!
Plus, any wild train which does land on the reels can bring up to five wilds with it.
Now, do you understand how this game got the name ‘Wild Reels'? Mega wild, in our eyes.
Ticket to Free Spins
The next symbol to look out for is the gorgeous golden train scatter symbol.
Landing three or more golden train scatters anywhere on the reels can give you a two-fold prize. The first is a win up to 25 times your bet, and the second? Up to 10 free spins!
These scatter symbols become wild throughout the free spins, during which you are guaranteed a wild train on every spin.
It is possible to re-trigger some extra spins and wild trains, if you can land another three scatters!
If you manage to collect four wild trains you will be granted another 3 free spins and continue to get more by collecting scatters.
This is one heck of a ticket to ride, especially if your free spin landings are lucky.
Wild Gameplay
Wild Rails is a fantastic execution of revamping the retro look into a modern slot. The special features are brimming with wilds and potential to build up that prize fund, so we are big fans.
The unique approach to the changing direction of the reels is welcomed, and it gives some variation from what we’re used to. That is, if you don’t mind change!
Enjoy a trip back in time to when all of the trains were the most glamorous, and probably had fewer delays!
The RTP of Wild Rails is around 96%.
