Wolf Legend Megaways by Blueprint Gaming is built on a 6-reel layout with shifting rows and cascading wins. At first glance it looks like a bog standard Blueprint Megaways release, but it brings in a few of its own ideas through a lifeline-based bonus system and a few other little twists.
Wolf Legend Megaways definitely fits the category of nature inspired online slots. It all takes place out in the wild west, with big rocky canyons stretching off into the distance and a warm sunset sitting behind the reels. There’s a soft wolf howl in the background that pops up now and then.
The symbols keep things simple. You’ve got eagles, bison, cougars, and wolves for the higher-paying ones, while the card royals cover the rest.
Animations are light, the background shifts from night to day, and the animal symbols perform a bit when they’re involved in a win. The choice of background music is a bit different though, a lot more dramatic, operatic even, then is usually the case with nature themed slots, but we still get the full compliment of animal calls.

Special symbols
Before free spins begin, the Golden Streak round kicks things off. Each scatter adds a random number of spins, and players are given lifelines. Every spin that doesn’t land a scatter removes a lifeline, while new scatters can add spins and extend the feature.
After the Golden Streak, there’s a gamble option. Players can choose to keep what they’ve collected or take a chance to gain extra lifelines and spins. Losing means missing out on the bonus entirely.
Once they get going, Free Spins are basically standard Megaways stuff with each cascading win pushing the multiplier up by 1, and the sky is the limit to how high it can go, theoretically at least. Scatters can also retrigger the feature and add extra spins into the mix.
Wolf Legend Megaways uses a 6-reel setup with up to 117,649 paylines possible. Wiins are formed left to right starting on reel one, and trigger cascades.
Megaways slots now come in all shapes, if not sizes, including:
We found Wolf Legend Megaways to be a mixed bag in a good way. If you’ve played a few Blueprint Megaways titles before, you’ll know pretty much what to expect, though the Golden Streak feature adds a bit of a lead-in before the main bonus kicks off. It’s probably one for anyone who enjoys that style of slot and doesn’t mind taking a slightly longer route before reaching the free spins.
