Quickspin’s First Live Game Big Bad Wolf Launches Soon!

Quickspin and its parent company Playtech join their expertise to launch a new but instantly recognizable live slot game, Big Bad Wolf Live. Based on the former’s flagship game, it comes complete with Tumbling Reels, the Pigs Turn Wild feature, and a redesigned bonus with three parts. The entire experience is guided by a friendly live presenter dressed like a farmer, who together with other participants will form a communal experience "like no other". Here’s what to expect when the game comes out this summer.

The base game is played like the original, with 5 reels and 25 pay-lines. Unlike Evolution’s Extra Chilli Epic Spins, where players must purchase 5 spins at a time, it looks like players can place bets separately on each spin. Not only that, but players who are not from the UK will be able to buy the main bonus for 40x their wager, which is not something you’ll see in other hosted live slots.

Speaking of the main bonus, instead of the Blowing Down the House Feature with free spins, like in the 11-year-old game, getting 3 Wolf Bonus symbols will activate the Live Bonus Game which consists of three parts:

• Top-up Game – While you’re waiting for the Wolf Bonus game to start, you can enjoy a simple 3-reel, 1-line Top-up Game to boost your winnings. It contains three symbols and will award a prize according to the paytable. The Top Up game is not free, and any winnings will be added to the overall winnings at the end of the Bonus Game.
• Multiplier Collect – During the Multiplier Collect game, which is a spin-and-stick type of bonus game, little pig symbols with different colours and multipliers will spin on the reels. There are three different multiplier pots, one for each colour. The Wheel Game (below) will decide the winning colour and will add a new multiplier on top.
• Wolf Wheel Game – During the Wolf Wheel bonus game, the presenter will spin the wheel and, depending on where the pin lands, will determine what you win. The pin could land on red, green or blue sections with multipliers ranging from 1x to 3x or it could land on the Wolf to win all colours with multipliers of 1x, 2x or 7x.

Here are some useful stats:

• Min Bet (€): 0.25
• Default Bet (€): 1
• Default Max Bet (€): 100
• Hit Frequency: 31.63%
• Hit Frequency into Bonus Game: 1 in 105
• Max Win: 700x
• Main Game RTP: 95.05%.

That’s about all we know of the upcoming game. As we wrote earlier, however, this is the first of potentially many more cross-vertical releases to come out of this Scandinavian iGaming studio. Big Bad Wolf Live will be available at Playtech-supplied casinos no later than 3 August 2023.
