This ant-themed, visually stunning game offers continuous entertainment and, potentially, amazing wins. Wild Antics is a 3x5 video slot with 20 fixed pay lines and lots of colorful, animated symbols and characters.
So…
Let’s get CRAZY, shall we?
Theme
The graphics are stunningly VIVID and the symbols are, as suggested in the title, represented as wacky wild ants!
There are also other small creatures like insects and caterpillars who make this tiny colorful universe, set beneath a green grass carpet, complete.
The animation created by Blueprint Gaming is impressive as well as amusing, with the classic anvils being dropped on heads and solider ants marching to winning rounds.
Betting Options and Functions
A panel under the grid contains a spin button to start the reels, which also serves as a stop button while the reels are spinning, since you can stop them at any time…
…an auto-play button that automatically spins the reels selected number of times); a total bet menu to choose your stake and a pay-table button. The panel also shows your total win.
Features
The Wild symbol can substitute for other symbols to help form a line, except scatter and bonus symbols. Only the highest paying win on each line is paid.
There are many bonus games included in this release, both for the fun factor and multiple chances to achieve victories over the spinning reels, as well as the sense of non-stop action that is the hallmark of this established brand.
Jet Pack Antics - If the Ant appears from the Anthill during any game there is a chance that Jet Pack Antics can be triggered. The Jet Pack Ants appear and selecting an Ant will provide one of the following features:
- Wild Antics (some of the positions are turned into wilds);
- Aardvark Antics (randomly turns reels wild and boosts up to 40 extra win lines);
- Frantic Antics (reel symbols are shuffled into a series of winning combinations) and
- Colossal Antics (ants march on screen and award a number of colossal wilds.
Free Spins are awarded if the bonus icon appears on reels 1 and 3.

Bonus Replay Change - At the end of each bonus there will be a chance that the bonus can be retriggered. Once any bonus is complete, there is a chance the Ant will pop up from the Anthill and blow his whistle which actions the Jet Pack Ants to fly on screen.
The player will then be prompted to select one of the Jet Pack Ants to reveal a 2nd bonus. This could be the same bonus that has just been played out or one of the other 3 bonus rounds
