NextGen are having a prolific time of it at the moment, releasing numerous slots on a range of different themes.
One of the newest additions is Shields of the Wild, which is, yes, another medieval slot, but if there’s one thing NextGen have proven over the years its their ability to bring a touch of something different to a well-worn theme.
About the slot
With five reels and 10 paylines, Shields of the Wild is playable from 10p to £100 a spin on all compatible desktop, mobile, and tablet devices.
The theme comes with a lot of predictableness to it, and this slot, unfortunately, does little to escape from that.
A grassy kingdom stands in the background, where two armies go to war on the Fields of Elysium.
There are eight different shields on the reels, while the Shields of the Wild logo is the wild and replaces all but the scatter, as well as paying out 25x your stake for five on a payline.
This is a good looking enough slot, NextGen are known for their aesthetic skills, but there’s nothing fresh enough to stand out in any way here.
Gameplay
The Shield Wall feature can trigger randomly at any time during the base game here, and will upgrade all regular symbols up one, which can, if you’re lucky, fill the screen with lion shield symbols to pay out 100x your bet.
The Marching Stacks Free Games feature is the big one here, and triggers with three, four, or five scatters, this will lead to a stack of a certain symbol landing on the fifth reel.
The feature will then trigger, with upgrade sword symbols upgrading the stack, which remains stuck to the reels for the duration of the feature.
Shields of the Wild may not be unique to look at, but there’s some big wins up for grabs in the bonus game.
