Black Wolf 2 (3 Oaks Gaming (Booongo)) – Review & Demo Play

Black Wolf Hold and Win 2 slot review

3 Oaks Gaming’s Black Wolf 2 keeps the 5x4, 25-line setup and medium volatility, now with a 95.54% RTP and a 2,000x top prize. The Hold and Win bonus remains the star, joined by the Fortune Slide and four fixed jackpots. Free spins come in sets of eight from scatters, while the wolf acts as a paying Wild. Compared with the first game, I felt the hit rate was steadier but base payouts lean lower. It still scratches that wilderness slot itch without overcomplicating things.

Black Wolf 2 slot RTP and volatility

Black Wolf 2 runs at 95.54% RTP, which sits under the market average, balanced by medium volatility and 25 fixed lines that pay left to right. In practice I saw frequent line hits, helped by Wilds appearing in stacks quite often. The steadier hit rate softened dry spells, though you usually trade away some punch in return. With five reels and four rows, it favours consistent cycles and feature-driven value rather than heavy base spikes.

I’d call the maths model a mixed bag. Wins arrive often, yet many three of a kind pays sit at the same low tier. The top line prize from five Wilds is $12 at a $1 stake, and the huntswoman scatter pays $2 for three. The moose headlines the regulars and can pay on threes, but card ranks are flat. The edge here comes from features and jackpots rather than raw line pay.

Black Wolf 2 symbols and paytable

Symbols split into low cards and forest wildlife. J, Q, K, A are the lows, each paying $0.20 for three and $1.60 for five at a $1 bet. The animal set covers owl, eagle, lynx, and moose, with the moose at the top, including a $10 five of a kind and the rare $0.60 for three. The wolf is both Wild and the highest payer overall, with $12 for five. The huntswoman works as scatter and pays $2 for three.

The Wild substitutes for all regular pay symbols and does not replace the scatter, the mystery moon, the full moon bonus icons, or the collector orb. That mix is key to the feature flow, and it keeps base game wins ticking while you chase the special symbols. Paylines are fixed, so symbols need to land from the leftmost reel on one of the 25 lines for a payout.

Black Wolf 2 slot stakes

I tested several builds and the common bet spread ran from $0.25 to $30, adjusted via the coin button with tidy steps that start small then jump faster near the top. Some versions use different minimums or caps, but $0.25 to $30 is the usual span. The drop to a lower ceiling than the first game will put off high rollers, while casual play benefits from the many mid-range choices.

Bonus features on Black Wolf 2

Eight features drive Black Wolf 2. The wolf Wild substitutes, while scatters on reels 1, 3, and 5 award eight free spins, with the round able to retrigger for eight more. During free spins, extra special symbols join the reels, so the grid feels livelier and the path to side features opens up. I found the free spins trigger quite stubborn, with two scatters teasing often, yet the round can still pay when it lands.

The glowing orb collector appears on reel 3 and in the bonus, adding up all visible bonus coin values to the spin total, even without a line win. The mystery purple moon can flip into higher value bonus icons or fixed jackpot coins, and its reveal ties to the collector being active. Full moon bonus icons carry 1x to 15x bet. In the base game, a background moon charges through phases as coins land, then fires the bonus when full.

You can also launch the Hold and Win round by landing six or more bonus, mystery, or collector icons at once. You start with three respins, reset by each new symbol, and the aim is to fill the grid for the Grand at 2,000x. The Fortune Slide queues chunky coins and jackpot icons to feed mystery hits. In my sessions, jackpot coins dropped more often than in the first game, with the Mini and Minor popping up at a decent clip.

Black Wolf 2 audiovisuals

The art sticks to rich wilderness scenes with cliffs, forest, and mist, plus a sky that shifts from dusk to night during free spins. Subtle animation sells the mood, like twinkling stars and breathing on character icons. The moon on the left advances through phases when coins land, which ties theme and mechanics neatly. The soundtrack reprises the brooding score and wolf howls from the first slot, which fits well but can loop a bit if you grind long sessions.

Black Wolf 2 game layout

The 5x4 layout shows 20 symbols, with clean controls for mute, paytable, spin, autoplay, bet, and quick spin. Hold the spin for turbo, hold autoplay to run continuous spins without extra limits, which is simple but bare bones. The paytable and rules explain symbols and features clearly, though the in-game info does not list RTP, volatility, or the top win, which I had to check outside the client.

Mobile play is smooth in portrait or landscape and the buttons scale well. The interface mirrors the first game, so returning players feel right at home. Infinite autoplay lacks safety stops and can run on longer than planned, so I prefer manual sessions or short bursts. Aside from that, menus are tidy and the game reacts quickly, which keeps the rhythm steady when you are hunting features.
