Wild Neon Slot Review

How to play

Located below the reels – as is the case in most slots – is a selection of bland and boring menus which you can use to adjust your stakes.

You’re not going to be given too much leeway in this department, with players only ale to adjust their total bet, and not the number of paylines.

For the sake of argument, there are 25 paylines spread over this slot’s 5 reels. Total bets range from a floor of just $0.25 per spin, up to a ceiling which is capped at $100 per spin. That is about right for a slot of this calibre.

Features

Wild symbols: Push Gaming did feel the need to include a wild symbol in this game, and that is very much appreciated. Without one, this slot would have been too bland to enjoy properly.

Wild symbols take the shape of neon signs bearing the word “wild”, and they can substitute for all other symbols in the slot, except for the scatter icons. Wild symbols also double up as the best-paying symbols in this slot.

Scatter icons: Scatter icons appear as bonus symbols. When 3 or more of these appear anywhere on the first, third, and fifth reels of the slot, a Bonus Board free spins feature is triggered. This is one of several bonuses in the slot.

Linking Wilds: This slot offers a Linking Wilds structure. When two or more wild symbols appear anywhere on the reels, they may become connected.

The pathway linking them together will see all the standard paying symbols in-between them turn into wilds, too. As you can imagine, this presents more than a few possibilities to pocket big cash prizes.

Bonus Board feature: The Bonus Board Free Spins feature will initially see players pocket just 5 free games. A total of 6 panels will be displayed on the screen, and players can click on some of the panels to pocket other goodies.

Instant win prizes, extra wild symbols, 5 additional free spins, and 2x multipliers can be scooped with the Bonus Board feature before the traditional free spins bonus begins.

Maximum pay-outs

The most you can expect to win in this slot is 20x your total bet. That makes for a rather poor non-progressive jackpot, and it is Wild Neon’s weakest aspect. To bag the prize, players need to line up 5 wilds on a payline.

Fortunately – because of the Linking Wilds feature – this can happen quite often. That sort of makes up for such a lacklustre non-progressive prize, then.

Summary

Truth be told, Wild Neon is not actually as bad as it sounds. Thematically it may be a bit beige and predictable, yet for such cheap and simple slot, we are impressed with what it can deliver.

Again, the total jackpot prize is a tad on the light side, but you do seem to pocket jackpot wins far more frequently in this slot than in other similarly themed and structured slot machine games. The fairest thing to say would be that Wild Neon doesn’t impress, but it doesn’t disappoint either.
