Slot Details

Golden Genie and the Walking Wilds is a video slot with five, three rows and 20 fixed pay lines. Wins are awarded for three to five matching symbols on a line from left to right, except during the Genie Lamp feature when they are paid both ways. You can travel to the desert kingdom on desktop or mobile from 0.20 to 100 credits per spin. The game has high volatility (9/10) with a default RTP of 96.03% and a hit frequency of roughly 1:3 spins. Using the Bonus Buy option will raise it to 96.36%. Some operators will offer the slot in the DX1 version with a lower RTP of 94.11% with a similar increase for the Bonus Buy.

A star-filled sky at night is opening up when you load the game with an intricately designed frame letting the reels float while scattered clouds pass through the scene. The genie and characters from the fabled tale dominate the reels to an oriental-inspired soundtrack.

The pay symbols start at the low wend with the card royals from 10 through to A, awarding 5x to 6.25x your stake for a single five of a kind. They are followed by a leopard, the magical lamp, Aladdin and the princess. Hit five on a line to win 7.5x to 25x your bet. The Genie acts in dual function as a wild scatter, substituting for all other symbols and triggering the main feature.

Golden Genie and the Walking Wilds Slot Features

The tales and legends surrounding the fabled genie in a lamp are as varied as there are grains of sand in the desert and most probably a manifold of the number of slots featuring the spirit who escapes from his confines to grant wishes. It was now Nolimit’s turn to take up the theme, giving it three wishes, speak features, to mesmerize us on our oriental reel journey.

The first feature you will encounter during the base game only are the Genie Lamps stacked wilds. They can trigger at the start of any spin and will be placed as an overlay on reels two and four while the remaining reels are still spinning. Wins are evaluated both ways from left to right and from right to left once they stop. The wilds will be removed before the next spin starts.

The second feature is the Genie Wishes modifier, which will trigger in the base game and free spins when Aladdin lands directly connected to the left of a lamp on the same row. All Aladdin and lamp symbols in view will turn into a wild symbol for the current spin. But that’s not all. All pay symbols on the reels will receive a random multiplier of x2, x3, x4, x5 or x10. Any wins will then be multiplied by the respective multiplier. They are not cumulative though.

Hitting three scatters anywhere on the reels in one spin will trigger the Genie Parade feature. The round has no set number of free spins and will last as long as Genie scatter wilds are still in view. One of the triggering Genies becomes the Golden Genie. All Genies will start with an x1 multiplier and will walk to the left by one reel on each spin. For each step, the multiplier on the Golden Genie will increase by x1 who will transfer the same increase to all other Genies in view.

Once the Golden Genie drops off to the left, the accrued multiplier is added to the closest Genie Wild still on the reels. All multipliers in a winning combo are added by each other, not multiplied. Any new Genie Wild landing will extend the feature while the Genie Wishes modifier can trigger too, turning all Aladdin and lamp symbols into Genie Wilds. They will all start with an x1 multiplier and increase as they walk to the left or receive a transferred multiplier from a Golden Genie. All comes to an end if the last Genie Wild has dropped off the screen and no new one lands on the following spin.

Want instant Genie wishes? The average trigger frequency for the Genie Parade is 1:190 spins. If that is that is to long a wait, then simply press the Nolimit Bonus button to buy a Genie Parade feature for 80x your base bet. It will spin the reels to land at least three scatters that will lead you then directly into the bonus round. The option is restricted in some jurisdictions.

Final Verdict

Golden Genie and the Walking Wilds is quite an intriguing slot with the friendly spirit granting ample wishes in a gaming session. The multiplier mechanic in the main feature is something we have not seen before, so that made for some interesting moments. The highest we got it up in hours of test runs was x27, ending the round with a total win just over 600x our bet. The maximum win potential peaks at 9,583x stake.
