NetEnt has launched a dazzling new video slot game, "Eggs Gone Wild". This game combines the tranquility of a rural farm with the crazy invasion of alien chickens, integrating progress tracking and high volatility mechanics into a fun and quirky spinning experience.
Asymmetric Layout and Comical Setting
The game features an asymmetric 3-4-5-4-3 grid, set against a typical American farm scene with red barns, tractors, pushcarts, and UFOs hovering in the blue sky. Players can bet anywhere from 0.10 to 3,000 per round, with a default RTP of 96.13%, although some versions may have an RTP of 94.08%. While the maximum payout of the game is 1,259 times the bet, according to test data, the highest reward is only triggered once every 50 million spins.
Core Gameplay: Egg Symbols and Meter System
The core mechanics revolve around collecting "eggs". Whenever an egg lands on a reel, it leaves a frame on that spot. Repeated landings accumulate points and have the chance to upgrade to a "golden egg", triggering wilds and rewards.
The meter system records every egg landing:
+1 point for landing on a spot without a frame;
+1 to +4 points for landing on an existing or active frame;
Reaching specific scores can increase the multiplier rate for free spins, sequentially: x1, x2, x3, x5, x7, x10.
After reaching a 10x multiplier, accumulation stops until free spins are activated. After the free spins end, both the multiplier and points are reset.
Free Spins and Golden Egg Gameplay
To enter the free spins round, three metal egg-shaped scatter symbols must appear on the middle three reels. Initially, three free spins are awarded. During each round, only egg symbols appear, and any egg landing resets the remaining spin count to three.
Each egg that lands eventually turns into a golden egg, displaying a reward amount ranging from 0.5 to 50 times the bet. If a player fills the entire grid during free spins, an additional 2x total multiplier is awarded.
The final prize is multiplied by the multiplier unlocked in the main game, forming the overall reward.
Additional Feature: Purchase Free Spins
NetEnt also offers players two options to "directly enter the bonus mode", known as the Elevate feature:
25 times the bet: Immediately start three free spins;
75 times the bet: Three free spins with a random starting multiplier from x1 to x10.
This feature allows players who prefer high risk and high reward to skip the accumulation process and go straight to the core reward stage.
Art and Theme: A Visual Feast of Absurd Farm
The game is drawn in a cartoon style, with saturated colors and a lively rhythm, presenting a unique blend of countryside and sci-fi. High payout icons include red tractors, seedling trays, hay bales, pushcarts, and muddy rain boots; low payout symbols are 10-A cards adorned with seeds and grains.
