Walking Wilds
Take it easy! In Buckshot Wilds by NetEnt, the wild symbols are the stars of the show, adding excitement to this classic-style slot. With each spin, existing wilds descend one row, sticking around until they reach the bottom row. They might even stretch out to nearby positions, boosting your chances of matching symbols. Plus, keep an eye out for the grid expanding, doubling the available paylines.
Opting for the Bonus Bet feature increases your shot at triggering features and Free Spins scatters. It's worth a shot, as Free Spins come with an expanded grid and more chances for bonuses and wilds.
Up to three wild symbols can grace the reels on any spin, sliding down row by row until they disappear from the grid. Wilds stand in for all symbols except scatters, enhancing your chances of scoring big wins. Remember, wilds are tied to your original bet, so they vanish if you change your wager. But fear not, they'll reappear when you return to your previous bet (just keep an eye on their expiration date!).
Keep your eyes peeled for the Expanding Reels Feature, randomly triggered at the start of any spin in the main game. This nifty feature causes wild symbols to shift down a row and expands the reels by four rows, bumping up the paylines to 48. And if a wild lands in the top four rows, another wild pops up four positions down on the same reel.
When a wild covers a trigger symbol during the main game or Free Spins, it triggers the Expanding Wilds Feature, turning adjacent symbols (except other wilds) into wilds. These extra wilds disappear at the start of the next spin.
To kick off the bonus round with 6, 10, or 15 free spins, land 3, 4, or 5 scatters anywhere on the reels, even if they're hidden under wilds. Activate the Bonus Bet for even more spins: 8, 12, or 20, respectively.
During Free Spins, the grid expands to eight rows, offering 48 paylines for the duration of the round. Plus, one to three wilds may appear randomly on the reels during the initial spin, with an additional wild joining in each subsequent free spin. And don't forget, landing scatters during Free Spins earns you extra spins, keeping the excitement going.
In the SteamSpin Charging stage, which comes next, at least one of three gauges needs to be charged up to x10 through scoring Multiplier Wilds. That’s when the main thrill of the ride happens! All multipliers from the meters are added together and a single spin is played only on the bonus top area. Outcome of that spin is multiplied by the total value. Red Hot SteamSpin is something every passenger dreams about, as it instantly triggers the feature with maxed out multiplier of x33.

About Walking Wilds Games
Walking Wilds is a casino game mechanic that is often found in online slot machines. It is a type of wild symbol that can move or "walk" across the reels during a certain number of spins, substituting for other symbols to create winning combinations. The number of spins the Walking Wild remains on the reels varies depending on the game, and it can usually be extended by landing additional Walking Wilds on the reels during the bonus round.
The Walking Wilds feature is usually triggered by landing a wild symbol on the reels during the base game. The wild symbol will then move one position to the left on the reels with each spin, until it disappears off the left side of the reels. Any winning combinations created by the Walking Wild will be awarded, and the feature will end once the wild symbol has disappeared off the left side of the reels. Some games have also added a multiplier to the Walking Wilds feature, which increases the value of any winnings made while the wild is moving on the reels.
This game mechanic can be a great way to increase the chances of hitting winning combinations, and it also adds an extra layer of excitement to the game as players watch the wild symbol move across the reels. It is a very popular feature in online slot games and has been used by many game providers. Some of the most popular slot games with Walking Wilds feature are "Jack and the Beanstalk" by NetEnt, Taco Brothers by ELK Studios, and "Rocket Men" by Red Tiger Gaming.
