Premium slots and table games provider, Habanero, is taking players on an adventure through the forest in its latest slot release, Wild Flows, the follow-up to one of its top-performing titles.

Immersing players in a picturesque woodland, a plethora of native wildlife including bears, wolves, chipmunks and foxes can be spotted along the trail, filling the gameboard as its symbols.

Beginning with a standard 5×3 reel setup featuring 243 ways to win, whenever a deer Wild appears, it triggers an expansion of the matrix.

During subsequent spins, these Wilds gradually ascend the reels, each time adding an extra position. This expansion can grow the grid by a maximum of 10 columns and 8 rows with the grid decreasing back to its original size once all Wilds have left the screen.

Providing a more volatile experience than its predecessor, Wild Flows boasts over a billion ways to win when the gameboard is at its full size.

Three owl Scatter symbols trigger ten free spins where the gameboard begins with a minimum of 3,000 and up to 15,000 ways to win, helping players to reach the maximum win of 153,902x the base bet.

Serving as the sequel to one of its most innovative hits, Jellyfish Flow, Habanero’s latest release sees the provider meld high-quality graphics with entertaining and immersive gameplay, Wild Flow is tipped to become another commercial success.

Commenting on the release, Toni Karapetrov, Head of Corporate Communications at Habanero, said: “Swapping the sea life for a nature reserve, Wild Flow builds on the expanding reels mechanic found in the original, this time offering even more ways to win. With a stunning theme and big win potential, we anticipate even better results for the latest instalment to the saga and can’t wait to see how players react.”
