Harvest Wilds review

Theme and Storyline

Harvest Wilds has a cheerful farming theme.

Players will arrive at a sunny farm to discover a host of ripe veggies ready to be picked. Carrots, pumpkins, peppers, and eggplants all wait in the fields, and with a little effort players will haul in the harvest.

This slot is a good choice for players who enjoy other produce themes such as fruit machines, or those who dream of a wholesome life out on a farm.

Graphics, Sounds and Animations

The upbeat soundtrack features plenty of twanging notes that will get players in the mood for a country lifestyle. Wins are celebrated with a satisfying splatting noise and a beeping sound that brings to mind a classic slot game.

Each of the vegetable symbols is animated in a bold, colourful cartoon style. The variety of vegetable types creates a sense of plenty with everything from corn to turnips included in the harvest. The purple eggplants and burgundy beets stand out as particularly vibrant among the selection.

Behind the reels, players will see the rolling golden fields of a farm and a clear blue sky above. In the foreground, a picket fence and a few purple flowers help create the farm atmosphere.

Overall, the animation and soundtrack create a welcoming pastoral atmosphere.

Gameplay

Harvest Wilds is a seven-reel, seven-row slot.

Players are awarded wins for landing combinations of 5 or more matching symbols in a cluster.

The Cascade feature means that symbols that are part of winning combinations will vanish. Then, new symbols will fall from above to take their place.

Players can buy directly into the bonus if they wish (see further details below).

Wilds, Bonuses and Free Spins

The Wild symbol substitutes for all regular symbols and also functions as a multiplier symbol. It takes the form of a Sunflower symbol that grows from Seed symbols.

Whenever players land a Seed symbol, it will transform into a Sunflower Wild symbol providing there is at least one win possible on the reels.

The Sunflower Wild begins with a multiplier of x2 and will jump to a new position on the reels between each Cascade and respin.

Players may have a maximum of four Sunflower Wilds on the reels at a time. If more than one of these symbols is part of a winning combination, then their multipliers will first be multiplied together before being applied to the win.

The Water Drops symbol triggers a respin, and players may accumulate up to 5 respins in a meter beside the reels.

The Fertilizer symbol increases the multiplier of one Sunflower Wild by 1, while the Epic Fertilizer symbol increases the multiplier of all Sunflower Wilds by 1.
