The Wildwood Curse Demo & Review

The Wildwood Curse review

The Wildwood Curse is a horror slot set in the woods, with Nightmare Respins. Any wild that lands sticks and triggers a respin, during which new wilds also stick, and the sequence continues as long as wilds keep landing, paying at every step.

Four wilds in a 2x2 square form a Cursed Cluster that reveals one of three characters. The Psycho, for example, re-rolls a multiplier for its cluster on every respin. The cluster rule rewards wilds landing next to each other, not just landing at all. The maximum is 10,000x.
