ABOUT

Betting Options and Bonus Features
The game is set in a small European village in the late 1600s and features a 6-reel grid with up to 46,656 ways to win! The paytable has ten regular pay symbols, including low and high pay groups, and a slashed parchment Wild symbol that can substitute for any of the regular pay symbols. However, it only appears on reels 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6.
In order to win the Curse of The Werewolf Megaways online slot, you need to land 2-6 matching symbols in one of the 45,656 win-ways. These winning combinations are formed randomly on each spin and special reel modifiers in play can also help you.
The game has two spin modifiers that can trigger randomly: Super Spins and Guaranteed Win Spins. Super Spins provide stacks of high-value symbols on the reels, while Guaranteed Win Spins ensure a big win in multiple ways.
The Mystery Symbol is represented by an icon of a werewolf howling at the moon, which can transform into the same paying symbol, thus increasing the chances of winning big. The Bonus symbol is also represented by a howling werewolf and triggers 8 to 15 free spins depending on the number of symbols landed.
In the free spins feature, you’ll unlock a new special golden werewolf symbol. It substitutes for other premium werewolf symbol combinations, however, it will also trigger a Werewolf Strike feature. When the gold werewolf symbol lands, it removes 1 to 5 lives from one of the villager characters.
If 5 lives are removed from a villager, you’ll receive +1 free spin and also activate the Lycanthropy feature that transforms said villager into a premium werewolf symbol. Furthermore, the bonus game can be extended if 2 to 6 bonus symbols land, granting 2 to 10 extra free spins.
Lastly, you’re also able to activate Pragmatic Play’s Bonus Buy feature. By paying 100x the stake you’re guaranteed at least 3 scatter symbols on the next spin.
Roshtein’s Take
Visually, it looks like Pragmatic took a lot of inspiration from the Werewolf board game. The art style is extremely similar, which makes the game feel homey and familiar. The gameplay, though, is a little too volatile. With a max win of 40,000x, the game potential is massive, for sure, but just how realistic it is to reach this number is questionable. Still, it’s an awesome slot that always provides highly entertaining gaming sessions.
