The Bayou mansion in Louisiana comes alive in the still of the night with the release of Yggdrasil’s 5×3 werewolf-themed online slot game, launched just in time for Halloween 2019. The game, set in a mysterious estate, is packed with features including transforming wilds, random multipliers, random wilds, free spins, and a maximum jackpot of 2000x your bet. The game stands out visually with impressive animations and immersive sounds. The integration of the werewolf theme into the slot mechanism is well-executed.

The game offers 20 paylines on a 5×3 grid, which are permanently active. Players can select their bet amount ranging from 0.10 to 100.00 coins. Autoplay and Max Bet features are available. Clicking on any symbol on the reels reveals the payout values for that specific symbol.

A notable feature of the game is the Lunar Calendar on a dial above the reels, which turns on every spin. When the full moon lands in the centre, all visible high-paying character symbols transform into Werewolf Wilds. There are also four random bonus features that can be triggered on any spin. Up to 20 Free Spins can be triggered by landing 3 or more Free Spins symbols anywhere on the reels. The Blood Moon replaces the full moon on the lunar dial in the Free Spins Bonus. High-paying symbols that turn Wild remain on the reel set.

The game has high-paying symbols represented by 4 character symbols, all with the same colour eyes, suggesting a dark secret. The low-paying symbols are familiar card symbols rendered in a Gothic style. The game does not have Wild Symbols on the default reel set; however, all 4 high-paying symbols can transform into a Werewolf Wild symbols. Maximum payouts for 5 symbols on a winning payline are available, and these can be boosted by Random multipliers awarded at any time in the base game or free spins.

Blood Moon Wilds is a medium-high volatility slot, with an RTP of 96.20% and a maximum win potential of 2000x your bet. It is available in multiple languages on all devices and offers a seamless gaming experience. Despite being feature-packed, players might find the base game a bit dry, with bigger wins being available in the Free Spins bonus.
