Five reels of three symbols each spin on a 5x3 grid with 25 fixed lines. Wins pay from left to right, and a line needs at least three matching symbols on it. The symbols are animals such as Buffalo, Eagle, Horse and Puma, card faces from A to J, plus WILD and SCATTER symbols. Wolf Gold is a video slot with an animal and Western theme.
Three SCATTER symbols on reels 1, 3 and 5 start five free spins, and reels 2 to 4 then spin as one giant symbol. More scatters during those spins add three spins each time, with no limit. Six or more money symbols start a Money Respin, where normal symbols fade. Filling all 15 positions pays a MEGA jackpot on top of the coin values.

Know each spin
Read this before your first spin, when you want the order of a round in front of you.
Before the reels turn, you pick a bet from A$1 up to A$100. The 25 fixed lines pay left to right, and each win is counted against the bet you set.
Matching symbols landing left to right pay when three or more line up on one of the 25 lines. A stacked wolf, covering two or three rows, can complete the line.
Blazing reels appear in normal spins: a giant wolf wild fills a full reel with an amber glow. Six or more money symbols start a Money Respin, and normal symbols fade.
Three scatters landing on reels 1, 3 and 5 trigger Free Spins, which award 5 spins. During them, reels 2, 3 and 4 spin together as one giant symbol.
The reels stop after every spin and the balance updates at once. Set your spending limit before the first spin, because the result of a session cannot be known in advance.

Feature rules
At Casino Mate we lay out each rule in plain steps, so you know it before you play.
Three scatters on reels 1, 3 and 5 start Free Spins, which award 5 spins. Reels 2, 3 and 4 then spin together as one giant symbol. Three more scatters add 3 spins each time, with no limit on retriggers. Money Respin is available during Free Spins.
Base game5 free spins
Six or more money symbols trigger Money Respin and normal symbols fade. It starts with 3 respins. Each new money symbol resets the counter to 3. It ends when respins reach zero or all 15 positions fill. Filling all 15 positions adds the MEGA jackpot to the coin values.
During a spinRespins, coin values
Each spin fills a 5x3 grid and the 25 fixed lines pay from left to right. Stacked wilds, where the wolf covers 2-3 rows, occur in normal spins. Blazing reels, where a full-reel giant wolf wild glows amber, occur in normal spins too.
Before any bonusLine wins
Every spin on the reels is random, so how often the bonus round comes is not known in advance. The result of one session is random too, whatever the RTP. Earlier spins tell you nothing certain about the next one, and a long quiet stretch does not mean a bonus is due.
Each spin on the reels runs under one RTP version, and which version Casino Mate runs is shown only in the game rules. Read those rules before you compare the RTP of Wolf Gold with the figures on another page, because two versions of one name can pay back differently.
Wins on the reels land at random, and the maximum win of Wolf Gold is a ceiling reached very rarely. Reading the maximum win as a target is a mistake, because it describes the highest possible result, not an expected one.

Wolf Gold FAQ
Short answers on versions, RTP, bets, free spins and volatility before you play Wolf Gold.
Every spin of Wolf Gold runs on a 5x3 grid with 25 fixed lines, paying left to right. The other titles in the series have their own return to player and maximum win figures, so check those before you pick a version.
Each spin on the reels adds to a long-run average, and the return figure describes that average, not one session. The table converts it into money for A$100 staked. One session can finish above or below that amount, and nobody can predict which.
Every spin on the reels is played at the bet you set, from A$1 up to A$100 a spin. The paytable uses a base bet of A$1, and examples on this page use A$1, A$2 and A$5.
Three scatter symbols landing on reels 1, 3 and 5 start the free spins, which award five spins. During those spins, reels 2, 3 and 4 spin together as one giant symbol. Three more scatters during the round add three spins each time, with no set limit.
Wins on the reels land between frequent small payouts and rarer larger ones, which is what medium volatility means. How often the bonus rounds land, and how big any session win gets, cannot be known before you spin.
Wolf Gold is for players aged 18+. Call the National Gambling Helpline on 1800 858 858, or join BetStop, the national self-exclusion register.
Set a session budget before the first spin and treat that amount as the most you are willing to lose, not a starting point.
Decide when you will stop before the first spin, and keep to that point after a win as well as after a loss.
Set your deposit and loss limits in the account before you open Wolf Gold, so they are already in place when the first spin lands.
If the game stops being fun, take a break, and if you want more distance, self-exclude through BetStop.
