Wild Harlequin Review

Usually, with these kinds of games, the Harlequin wears clown makeup. This is not the case with the main character and wild symbol in Wild Harlequin however, and she seems inspired by Harley Quinn from the DC Comics universe (played by Margot Robbie in several movies). Visually, this is a rather simple installment, which suits the classic-inspired theme quite well.

You get nudging Harlequin wilds in the base game, and this can lead to small to mid-range payouts here and there. You will need the bonus round to stand a chance at getting even close to cracking the 30,000x potential however, and it can be quite thrilling to see the reel multipliers increase per new wild that lands with no upper limit.

Wild Harlequin Slot Features

The Harlequin Wild is the most valuable symbol in the game, awarding 10x your stake for 5-oak wins. The mid level premiums pay 3 to 7.5 x your stake in comparison, and the wild also steps in for all regular pay symbols to help you complete winning combinations.

The Harlequin Wild takes center stage in the features department as well, and it’s stacked 3 positions high. It always nudges fully in place if it lands only partially in view, and you trigger the Bonus Round with 10 free spins if you land at least 3 Harlequin Wilds on the same base game spin.

As the bonus round starts, the triggering wild reels turn into Magic Reels. An x2 reel multiplier will appear above each triggering reel, and it increases by +1 per new Harlequin Wild that lands on those reels.

Wild Harlequin Slot Gameplay

Whenever a Magic Reel increases the multiplier by 5 (i.e. x5, x10, x15 and so forth), you get +2 extra spins added to your tally.

The reel multipliers apply to any win where the reel, or reels, are involved, and the respective multipliers will multiply with each other if more than one magic reel is involved. For example, if you land a win involving 3 magic reels with x5 multipliers, the win will be boosted by x125.

Non-UK players can take advantage of the Bonus Buy options, and you get to choose between 3 or 4 guaranteed triggering Harlequin Wilds. The lowest tier option will set you back 80x your stake, while the top-tier option costs 200x your stake. This also increases the RTP to 96.5 % or 96.76 %, respectively.

Review Summary

As much as we love the bonus round in Wild Harlequin, the base game would have been better off with a bit more spice and punch. The most you can hope for from the regular symbols is 75x your stake, which means that you will mostly get top-up wins that keep you somewhat afloat until you finally land 3+ Harlequin Wilds to trigger the Magic Reels free spins round.

This is not an uncommon setup in the world of online slots, of course, but keep in mind that the bonus round is also very ‘hit or miss’. Building up solid multipliers is one thing, but you also need to land actual winning spins to cash in on it. Still, it’s a highly entertaining feature because of the anticipation and tension that builds with the magic reel multipliers, and it’s therefore very tempting to go for the bonus buy options.

Pros

  • Nudging 1x3 stacked Harlequin Wilds
  • 3-5 Harlequin Wilds trigger bonus round
  • FS w/ increasing Magic Reel multipliers
  • Win up to 30,000x your stake

Cons

  • Beware of adjustable RTP ranges
  • Max win chance is 1 in 567 billion spins
