The interesting shape of the reel set is made up of 3 rows on reels 1 and 2, and 4 rows on reels 3, 4, and 5, offering a healthy 25 paylines to land combinations on.

Into the Forest
The scene is set with a wooden reel set, framed by a forest clearance vista with a cottage at the foot of a mountain range.
Now we all know from the fairytale, that this is where granny stays. Unfortunately, it seems that Granny has met her demise, as she is absent on the reels, however ‘Red’ and the ‘Huntsmen’ are on the trail of the ‘Big Bad Wolf’, or are they the prey? This twisted tail will only tell.
Each of the above three characters is accompanied by various other symbols on the reel grid, including a locket, a red candle and a sealed letter (from Granny perhaps), a sack of money, and standard card symbols (J, Q, K, A). The Scatter symbol includes that of the ‘Full Moon’ icon and the Game logo is the ‘Wild’ symbol, that will substitute for all standard game symbols to help form a win.
The graphics are sharp and help keep you engaged in the story and dark theme of the slot throughout your flutter fest.
Big Bad Bonuses
This game is centred around the main bonus game feature, which as the “Wolf’s Bonus Wheel”. This is triggered by landing three ‘Full Moon’ scatter symbols, which in turn, summons the Wolf and his ‘wheel of fortune’.
Spin the wheel to win instant cash prizes topped off by the activation of one of two bonus games. The Forest of Fortunes pick feature will either reveal instant cash prizes; or an axe, which gives you an extra pick; or a wolf, which ends the game immediately. Each successful pick will increase the multiplier by 1x.
The Free Spins bonus game will grant you 9 free games with one of the high-value symbols replacing all other high symbols on the screen. The 3 larger reels (4 column reels will move left and right across the grid during the feature, in an effort to help you out with combinations.
