Wolf Strike

Has Iron Dog kind of dropped the ball of late? If yes, it's surprising since not long ago the studio picked up a Rising Star Award and Game of the Year for Branded Megaways. How much stock can be placed in some award ceremonies in the iGaming industry is certainly up for debate and a topic for another day.Branded Megawayswasn't a particular innovative slot, though its use as a template for future games makes sound business sense. From a player perspective, though, having a reusable slot template did mean a bunch of insipidMegawaystitles followed.Britain's Got Talent Megawayswas one disappointing example which sticks in the mind like a stubborn piece of grit that toothpicks struggle to extract. Speaking of disappointing, let's turn our focus to Wolf Strike, which is very much likeWolf Gold, except five years late to the party. Wolf Strike sits in a fairly numerous game category, begging the question, how many of these games do players really need? We're talking about being out in the North American countryside chasing scatters to trigger free spins or hold & win respins. Wolf Strike's only real new bit is the expanding wild symbol. It's alright, nothing special. Wild expansions occur every so often, thereby collecting a couple of nuggets and maybe linking up a line win or two. The feature might have been more interesting in another game but being attached to such a hollow knock-off robs it of much of the clout it could have garnered elsewhere. For those keeping score, the maximum payout in Wolf Strike is5,100x the bet, which, when hit, will end any bonus round currently in play. Maybe if Iron Dog had just… nope, there's not much we could suggest to really justify Wolf Strike's existence. Let's sum up by saying Wolf Strike is the sort of uncreative game a rookie company might have made or a studio that's running short of new ideas. Iron Dog couldn’t be classed as a rookie, and Wolf Strike might well strike a chord withWolf Goldaficionados, but it makes one wonder.
