Dwarfs Gone Wild Slot Review

Dwarfs Gone Wild Slot Overview

Dwarfs anchor Dwarfs Gone Wild in a comic Snow White setting from Quickspin. The game uses a 5-reel, 3-row layout with 20 fixed paylines, and its key design hook is a Golden Minecart collection meter feeding seven dwarf-led features in the free spins round. I see it as a polished 2018 flagship with more personality than many fairytale slots.

Compared to the studio's previous work, including Goldilocks, Big Bad Wolf and Rapunzel's Tower, the design choice to tie each dwarf's character trait to a bonus effect gives the slot a clearer identity. The forest and mineshaft backdrop is familiar, but the animation, character work and orchestral audio give the game a strong sense of production value.

Symbols and Paytable

Snow White is the highest-paying symbol in Dwarfs Gone Wild, with 5 of a kind paying 60x the bet. The seven dwarfs are also high-paying symbols, while Ace, King and Queen sit at the lower end of the paytable. Wins require at least 3 matching symbols on adjacent reels from the leftmost reel.

Wild symbols carry the Dwarfs Gone Wild logo and substitute for paying symbols. The Bonus symbol has no cash value, but 3 of them on reels 2, 3 and 4 trigger the Golden Minecart Free Spins Bonus. Dwarf symbols matter beyond payouts, as wins containing them fill the Golden Minecart Bonus Meter on the left of the reels.

What Are the Bonus Features?

Golden Minecarts are collected in the base game whenever dwarf-symbol wins fill the meter. Landing 3 Bonus symbols on reels 2, 3 and 4 awards 7 Free Spins, with one dwarf feature granted for every collected Minecart. What stands out here is that the features are randomly selected, not fixed, and collected Minecarts are saved even if the game is closed.

Strongman adds Rolling Wilds, Bomber creates Spreading Wilds, Racer places 2 to 5 random Wilds, Blacksmith can turn up to 2 reels fully Wild, and Huntsman places one Wild in the best reel position. Wizard can add up to 3, 4 or 5 extra spins, while Banker applies 2x, 3x or 5x win multipliers.

Magic Mirror gives the base game its own lift. When the Magic Mirror symbol lands on reel 3, Magic Mirror Respins add 300 extra Snow White symbols to the reel set and award 2 free respins. I like the idea, although the regular game can still drag a bit during quieter stretches.

RTP, Volatility and Max Win

96.38% is the reported RTP for Dwarfs Gone Wild, with stakes running from 0.20 to 100 per spin. Volatility is described as medium to high in one review and high in another, which fits the feature structure: plenty of build-up, then stronger potential once several Minecarts enter the bonus.

Max win data is less tidy. One source gives a top payout of just over 6000x the bet, while another lists 2535x. I would treat the larger figure cautiously unless the paytable in the live game confirms it. Either way, the slot is positioned for players who accept dry spells in exchange for feature-heavy bonus rounds.

Dwarfs Gone Wild FAQ

How do Golden Minecarts change the Free Spins round?

Each Golden Minecart collected before the bonus unlocks one dwarf feature when the Golden Minecart Free Spins Bonus starts. More Minecarts mean more feature effects can be active across the 7 free spins.

What triggers the Magic Mirror Respins feature?

The Magic Mirror symbol must land anywhere on reel 3 in the base game. It adds 300 extra Snow White symbols to the reel set and awards 2 free respins.

How many paylines does Dwarfs Gone Wild have?

The slot has 20 fixed paylines on a 5x3 layout. All paylines are active on every spin, so there is no separate line selection.

Review Summary

Overall, Dwarfs Gone Wild is one of the more carefully built fairytale slots from Quickspin. The collection meter gives regular spins a purpose, the seven dwarf effects add variety to free spins, and the Magic Mirror respins stop the base game from feeling completely flat. The presentation also remains a major strength.

I am not entirely sold on the volatility for every player. Some sessions will feel dry, and the conflicting max win figures deserve caution. Even so, the slot suits players who enjoy character-led design, progression meters and wild-heavy bonus rounds more than simple low-risk spinning.
