Wild Wishes Slot

Wild Wishes is brought to you by Playtech and has 5 reels and 15 paylines. Playable on desktop devices from 15p to £75 a spin, it has a Middle-Eastern theme featuring genies, sultans and magic lamps. With graphics reminiscent of Disney’s Aladdin, you are taken on a mystical journey with plenty of bonus features.



When it comes to symbols, the male sultan and genie (the wild) are the most lucrative with 750 times your line stake payable if you manage to get 5 on an active payline. However, the wild substitutes for all other symbols and also appears as stacks on reels 2, 3 and 4 in the base game. In the feature (more info below), the wild appears stacked and as a single symbol on every single reel.

Now, you have the choice to turn the feature on or off – turning it on will result in your stake going up. At minimum bet, the spin value goes up to 25p per spin whilst it’s £125 per spin on the maximum bet. I recommend it though – as you will see why below.

A winning combination in the base game will light up a lamp on the row appearing above the reels – this will then award you with a free re-spin. Any win during the re-spin will light up another lamp and give you an additional re-spin. This continues for up to 5 consecutive wins.

If you turn the feature on (as described above), only 3 consecutive wins are required to trigger the Free Games feature - if not, you will need 4 consecutive wins to trigger the feature. Once in, the row of lamps is removed to reveal an extra row of symbols with an extra 25 paylines in play (giving you a total of 40 paylines).

Anyway, you will also receive 7 free spins when you start the feature. If you get 5 consecutive wins (from the base game), you will get 10, 15, 20, 30 or 50 free spins!

What makes the feature interesting is the Magic Lamp feature – on every free spin, a cloud of magic spoke appears from the lamp covering several positions on the reels. Now, if a wild symbol lands on 1 of the reel positions occupied by the cloud of magic, all other symbols in the cloud of magic will also turn wild. I’ve managed to get 7 wilds on a few free spins (as well as wilds on the other reels) which has resulted in wins over 1,000 times my stake (in the whole feature).

Wild Wishes, I found, is a medium to high variance game with the big wins almost certainly coming in the free spins feature – don’t be disappointed to win low amounts though as you will need to be patient. Graphically, the game reminds me of the G+ Deluxe slots from WMS (think Zanzibar) but theme wise it’s more in tune with Sultan’s Gold (by Playtech). Let’s just hope the genie can make your wishes come true and give you plenty of free spins.
