How To Play Cool Wolf Mobile Slot
Teenage nerd by day, Cool Wolf by night, time to jump into your convertible and head to the movies in this fun Cool Wolf slot from Microgaming.
We like it when Microgaming create a slot theme that’s a little different. Though not so much different as basically a nod to the 1985 film with Michael J Fox, Teen Wolf.
The story behind the Cool Wolf mobile slot is a simple one. A random geeky all American high schooler finds out he comes from a family of werewolves.
This immediately makes him immensely popular at school and shenanigans ensue.
Or in this case, with the couple of cheerleaders, cineplex tickets, and funky glass, being transported to ‘HowlingWood’ won’t take much of the imagination.
Needless to say, the theme is well done and each little animation brings the slot alive.
But is the Cool Wolf slot worth playing?
This is one of the few Microgaming mobile slots that give you cascading reels; ie. when you win the symbols get scratched out by the wolf, and more symbols fall from above to replace them, giving you a mini free ‘go’.
The others in the same collection, and by same we mean identical, are The Break Away slot, all ice hockey and pucks, the Cricket Star slot and Football Star slot. You can guess the theme on those.
So if you’re not a fan of the Americana slot theme, you certainly have your choice. Though as we spin away on the Cool Wolf video slot, or any of the others, we couldn’t help but long for Gonzo’s Quest multipliers in the base game.
As always, it’s all about the free spins
Sure, during the base game you get stacked wilds on reels 3, 4 and 5, which really help keep you ticking along.
But it’s during the free spins that you get the potentially bigger wins in this Cool Wolf slot game as get an increasing multiplier trail, all the way to a 10x your line win.
Granted, mostly you’ll get a little frustrated that you rarely go past the 3x multiplier, but on each spin, and each win, and each stacked wild, you’ll be staring intently at the top of the screen in the hope of a chain reaction of wins.
That said, the kind of slot wins that will have you howling at the moon are hard to reach. But play long enough, and you might just end up being very popular at home.
