The Wild Machine

Features

How does it play

The Wild Machine from Pragmatic Play is a 5 by 5 slot with 40 paylines heavily featuring the wild symbol and wild features that can trigger in the base game or in the two different free spin bonus features.

The Wild Machine can be played with the space bar or the spin button. It has a quick spin feature which can be turned on in the slot settings. Holding down the space bar will trigger turbo spins. The autoplay feature can also be played with either regular, quick, or turbo spins.

The Wild Machine Feature

It is possible in the base game on any spin for the slot to adapt to unlock new reels 1 and 7 containing a single wild symbol and a full wild reel in reel 4. This will last for one spin and gives you an increased chance of landing a good win as there are still 40 paylines in play and reel 1 is guaranteed to connect with the wild in play.

By far the biggest payouts in The Wild Machine are from connecting 7 symbols on a payline so this feature also gives you the slots maximum potential.

The Wonder Wheel Feature

The Wonder Wheel feature is triggered by landing 3 scatter symbols on reels 2 to 5 in the base game. This is the only method to trigger the free spins bonus in The Wild Machine.

Once you have triggered the Wild Wheel feature you will be taken to the wheel which will spin and give you the chance to land a cash prize or the free spins bonus.

The worst result from the Wonder Wheel is to land a single low paying cash payout amount.

However, it is possible for the wheel to continue to move after you land a cash prize and collect up to 5 cash prizes in one go. However, it is not possible to also trigger the free spins bonus.

To win the free spins feature you need to wheel to land directly on one of the 5 free spins segments on the wheel.

Free Spins

Once you have triggered the free spins bonus you will be taken to the free spins selection screen. You have a choice between the lower potential gold foundry feature which will unlock between 2 to 5 wild reels each spins. The diamond forge expands the slot and wilds will be sticky.

As you can see with the Gold Foundry free spins bonus you play on the 5 by 5 slot screen with the chance to unlock 2 to 5 wild reels each spin. This bonus does come with 8 spins whilst the Diamond Forge feature only has 5 so the bonus will last longer if that is your preference for playing bonuses.

For the Diamond Forge bonus you have the expanded 7 reel slot screen with single wild symbols in play on reels 1 and 7. Reel 4 is also always a full reel wild. You will have 5 spins and any wilds landed will be sticky for the remainder of the bonus.

This feature has the maximum potential for the slot as you can connect up to 7 symbols on a payline whilst the Gold Foundry bonus can only connect up to 5 symbols.

This bonus has higher potential but to win big you need to land many sticky wilds in your first few spins as they can run out quickly with only 5 spins to play.

The Bonus Buy

Unfortunately, the Wild Machine doesn’t feature a bonus buy feature but the turbo spin feature can quickly trigger the Wonder Wheel for you to give you more chances to land the free spins bonus.

The paytable and how can you win big

The Wild Machine features 11 paying symbols including the wild symbol. This is the joint best paying symbol along with the mad scientist symbol paying almost 4x as much as the book symbol for a full 7 symbol connection.

As you can see from the pay table the biggest payouts available are from connecting 7 symbols on a payline. This is only possible when the wild reels unlock in the base game or from playing the Diamond Forge free spins bonus. Therefore, the Diamond Forge is the best choice with the free spins bonus to win big in the Wild Machine but this choice features high volatility as you only have 5 free spins to land as many sticky wilds as possible.

The payouts shown below are based on a $1 base game bet.
