Free slot: Wild Swarm

How Wild Swarm works

Wild Swarm is a slot machine developed and published by the online gaming provider Push Gaming. This slot was launched in 2018 and is available in many online casinos with this provider. Wild Swarm features the beehive, honey and bees, which makes the settings of this slot very original. The Wild Swarm slot has an unusual format. It contains 5 reels of 4 symbols that you will need to connect in order to win. These connections must be made on the 20 paylines provided. Wild Swarm is an atypical slot machine with many original features, both in the base game and during bonus games. It is a very interesting slot because of its Redemption Rate (RTP) which exceeds 97%.

Some of the features found on Wild Swarm make this slot very attractive. This is the case with the Pick Feature. When a pink box appears, 5 swarms of bees offer themselves to you and cover different prices including bet multipliers, free spins, cash prizes or level increases to access the Swarm Mode function explained below.

If this feature appears as a bonus, you can get 5 extra spins, expandable wilds throughout the reel, or wilds that will shift one row to the left on each round of play.

The different symbols of Wild Swarm

There are many symbols on the Wild Swarm slot machine. These are the symbols that you will need to connect to the slot machine in order to win. The symbols that appear most often are called classic symbols, and are represented by the highest values in a deck of cards, namely the Jack, Queen, King and Ace.

The most lucrative symbols are called premium symbols. They are represented by objects or characters related to bees, such as :

• the purple flower

• the white flower

• the honey pot

• the queen bee

• the honey-covered dollar

There is also a wild symbol, represented by dripping honey. It replaces any symbol and thus makes it easier to make connections.

The graphic below shows the payout scale for each symbol on the Wild Swarm slot machine (€1 bet).

The different connections of Wild Swarm

As explained above, the primary objective of Wild Swarm is to make identical symbol connections, at least on the first three reels (2 for the $ symbol). These connections, in order to be valid, must take place on the payment lines provided for this purpose. These lines can be read from left to right.

There are 20 payment lines on Wild Swarm, and you can find them in the following image.

How the Wild Swarm bonus works

There are two different bonuses available on Wild Swarm, each containing distinct features.

The first bonus is called Free Games Feature. This bonus is obtained by seeing at least 3 symbols represented by a beehive in the same round of play. The number of hives will determine the number of free spins:

• 3 scatter = 7 free spins

• 4 scatter = 10 free spins

• 5 scatter = 14 free spins

The wilds that appear during these free spins will be sticky, meaning that they will remain operational and in the same place throughout the bonus and will allow you to make connections more easily.

Wild Swarm's second bonus is called Swarm Mode, which is earned over the long term. Indeed, each time a bee appears in base game, it goes into the hive located at the top and the counter on the right increases. For every 10 bees accumulated, the indicated number increases by 1 and once it reaches 5, then the bonus can be triggered. If another bee appears once level 5 is reached and the gauge is fully loaded, then 10 free spins are offered and sticky wilds will be added beforehand. During the free spins, the principle is the same as during the Free Game Feature so any wilds that appear will be sticky.
