Our favourite hero Rich Wilde is back, and this time, he is headed to the Wandering City, often referred to as Ciudad de Los Cesares, a mysterious place in South America.

Rumours of its existence have been floating about for many years, yet it has never been proven to exist. It is rumoured to be in the Patagonian valley somewhere between Argentina and Chile.

Who would want to miss out on the chance of finding the Wandering City? Rich Wilde definitely is not. Our hero is now presented aged like a fine wine with salt and pepper hair as he has reached middle age. While he may have lost his boyish charms, he is still looking as suave as ever.

The slot game is built across 5 reels, 3 rows and 243 ways to win. This is a highly volatile game, so you can’t expect too many wins regularly. It also comes with a payout percentage rate of 96.2%, which is bang on average.

It is not all doom and gloom for players who prefer low volatile games, though, as there is an increased number of ways to win. Five Rich symbols on a payline will earn you 4x your wager. Other premium symbols include daggers, skulls and statues.

The low paying symbols are the usual card cards. The Diamond wild scatter symbol, on the other hand, leads you to the game’s main feature. It may be a little short on in-game features, but it does the job well enough to keep players entertained.

Rich Wilde and the Wandering City jackpots

Although our hero is on an expedition searching for treasures and gems, there are sadly no Rich Wilde and the Wandering City jackpots available.

Rich Wilde and the Wandering City free spins

The Diamond symbol acts as a wild in this game and helps replace symbols to generate winning combinations. It also acts as a scatter, though, so landing it is always a welcome sight.

Land three, four or five scatters anywhere on the reels to be awarded 10 free spins. The payout will vary depending on the number of scatters. These can pay out 0.8, 1.6 or 4x your wager, respectively.

Before you kick off the free spins bonus round, a symbol will be randomly selected to act as an expanding symbol for the entirety of the free spins bonus round.

This special symbol will cover an entire row and create winning combinations as you would expect from an expanding symbol.

The free spins can also be retriggered. If three scatters pop up anywhere during the bonus round, an additional 10 free spins will be added to the tally. It can be re-triggered up to 5 times.

Rich Wilde and the Wandering City bonus features

In addition to the juicy wins you can generate from the free spins bonus round, this game boasts other mechanics, including:

Win Multiplier

During both the base game and the free spins bonus round, you have the chance to activate a 2x multiplier on reels 2, 3 or 4. This multiplier can be applied to any wins. If there is more than one multiplier in sight, then the values are added up together.

Rich Wilde and the Wandering City RTP

This latest instalment forming part of the Rich Wilde series comes with high volatility. Players will generate infrequent wins on a somewhat irregular basis.

The Rich Wilde and the Wandering City payout percentage rate stands at an average of 96.20%.

Verdict

If it is not broken, there is no need to fix it when it comes to the Rich Wilde Series. Play ‘n GO has applied the same formula to all slot games forming part of this series. The only way to generate substantial wins in this game is from the multipliers, which can go all the way up to 6x during both the base game and the free spins bonus round.

If we look closely at the maths, the highest paying symbol can result in a 972x stake win. If you apply the 6x multiplier to this sum, it comes to 5,832x your stake. The only way to generate a 10,000x win is to land the highest paying symbol and the 6x multiplier during the free spins round.

It is also a highly volatile game, so low rollers will be unlikely to generate big wins in the long term. The bankroll will be depleted at lightning speed if you don’t watch out. Rich Wilde and the Wandering City might follow up on the other slot games in the series, but this one still does not offer enough bone to chew.

If you are a fan and love the high volatility, then you are welcome to play this fantastic and stunningly designed online slot game.
