Mystic Wolf launched at the beginning of summer 2014 off the back of some stunning trailers and promotion from Rival Gaming. It’s fair to say that players awaited it with anticipation after other recent Rival slots left them disappointed. So will Mystic Wolf put Rival back in players good books? We reviewed it to find out.
Mystic Wolf Theme
Mystic Wolf begins with an animated scene that shows a wolf galloping through the forest and stopping at key points to howl at the moon. The reels then load and you’ll get a glimpse at the frosty reel icons that float in front go a starlit background. At this stage we weren’t overawed, especially as there are just a handful of bespoke reel icons.
Diving into the pay table revealed an even split between bespoke reel icons and Poker figures. On the bespoke side you’ll find planet Earth, a silver medallion, diamonds, three different wolf logos and a feather. Each of these is animated and some even include their own sound effects. The regular 9, 10, J, Q, K and A logos don’t offer much in the way of animation though.
Betting Options and More Functions
Mystic Wolf is a 50 line slot, but you can play with as little as a single line if you want to limit bets. In fact in combination with coin options you can wager anything from 0.01 to £125 (other currencies also available) per spin. This means most people will be able to find a suitable bet; heck, there’s even a free version available at most supporting casinos and here on LCB.
Mystic Wolf Features
Running Wolf icons are wild and carry a diary hefty 5x multiplier. This makes up for the mediocre prizes at the lower end of the pay table. These wilds also appear during the free spins bonus with an uprated 10x multiplier.
The jackpot bonus is well and truly random, so much so that the pay table doesn't even specify the prizes that could be won if it triggers. The general feeling around the interwebs is the top prize is 100x your bet, but we weren't lucky enough to trigger that much with this particular feature.
Scattered feather icons are the key to unlocking free spins. Three of these awards 7 free spins, four awards 15 and five 50 free spins. The Lunar Phase bonus could (we say this loosely as it is rare) trigger during these free spins if three dice icons appear.
During the Lunar Phase bonus you'll choose three phases of the moon. Three dice are then rolled and prize are paid if the picture shown on the dice matches your initial choice.
Our Take on Mystic Wolf
So when it comes down to it we weren’t bowled over by the graphics and would’ve preferred it if the Lunar Phase bonus was easier to trigger. Despite this we’d say this was a good (but not great) effort by Rival Gaming, what’s your verdict?

I used to like this one a lot, and then they updated it and it has never been as good as it used to. Rarely play it nowadays. It does have cool bonus features though and is relaxing with the sound effects/music.

In the overcrowded world of online slot games, Mystic Wolf Slots attempts to carve out a niche with its wilderness-themed design, but ultimately falls short of delivering a truly compelling gambling experience. After extensive gameplay, I'm left more frustrated than enchanted.Graphically, Mystic Wolf Slots sits squarely in mediocre territory. The wilderness backdrop looks passable but lacks the visual depth that would truly immerse players. Character designs are generic, with wolf symbols that feel more like clip art than carefully crafted imagery. The color palette, dominated by muted blues and grays, fails to generate any real visual excitement.

I so rarely see this slot anymore as the software company who owns it only has an in at the shadier or older online casinos but great content, amazing graphics when you think about its release date, and big wins all make it a slot you want to go back to again and again

Within the free spins round, collecting three or more Lunar Dice icons activates this bonus. Players get to pick three lunar phases and match them to the dice to win coin prizes. I highly recommend the bonus is super!

Mystic Wolf by Rival just checks all the same boxes: flat forest graphics, stiff wolf animations, and the “land 3 moons” free spins retrigger feels rote. The 5×4 layout is fine, but the UI is awkward and the wins are tiny. If you want a truly immersive wolf-themed slot, try Wolf Gold by Pragmatic Play for vivid visuals...

Mythic Wolf is a slot that has paid out to me more than its fair share. I love the graphics for this slot, and the opportunity to make some big wins is certainly there with the wolves. I used to run around in $2 wolf t shirts when i was a kid so love the subject matter on this slot too

I was just on the forum speaking about this game in particular it doesn't have a high rate of winning but when you do it's a bunch at one time and that's what makes it really awesome I highly recommend this to anybody who wants to play a game especially if you're a wolf lover like me thank you

Very underwhelming! The payouts were horrible and 80% of them are less than what you wager. The idea behind it is pretty neat with the cascading blocks and a multiplier that increases, but the delivery just wasn't there for me.

I like all the mystic wolf games. Love the colors, and the bonus games. I like playing and don't get bored. Can profit off the lowest amount easily.
