Rip Up The Decks and Win Big
As with most of ELK’s casino games, DJ Wild has a reel setup that encompasses the entire screen. The betting options button and info button are superimposed onto the reels, which means that you get full-on reel action and nothing else. In terms of the slot setup, the game has 5 spinning reels with 20 fixed paylines. There are actually 10 paylines that pay both ways, creating the 20 that are in operation throughout the game.
Choose 1 of 4 Betting Strategies
One of the more unique features in DJ Wild is the option of using a Bet Strategy. There are 4 options to choose from here. The 1st is the Optimiser. In this case, the bet will automatically increase or decrease based on the percentage of your balance. The 2nd is the Leveller. In this strategy, the bet is raised 2 levels after ever 5 consecutive wins. The 3rd option is the Booster. This strategy raises the bet after every non-winning spin up to a maximum of 4. It gets reset again after a win. The final bet strategy is the Jumper. It’s essentially the opposite of the Booster, whereby the bet is raised after ever win up to a maximum of 4. It gets reset after a loss.
High Paying Pokies Symbols
Once you have chosen your bet strategy, you can set your coin value and start spinning away. On the reels, there are a couple of symbols to keep an eye out for. The highest paying symbols are all music-based and include the synthesiser, the mixing desk, the DJ deck, and finally the headphones. For the lower paying symbols, ELK has used stylised fruit symbols including grapes, watermelon, lemons and cherries.
Expanding Wild Symbols
While there are no free spins to look forward to in this online pokies game, DJ Wild does have a whole assortment of Wild symbols that play multiple roles. The main Wild symbol is of course the game logo being the DJ Wild. This symbol can substitute or replace any of the other game symbols to form a winning combination. But it doesn’t stop there. It also triggers a re-spin, giving you more chances to win.
Re-Spins and Jackpot Wilds
To add to the Wild bonus action, ELK has included expanding Wilds, 2 of which expand horizontally, and 3 that expand vertically. When a Wild expands, it triggers a re-spin, if more Wilds are created or land, another spin is awarded and the symbols continue to expand. If you manage to cover the reels in Wilds, the all-important Jackpot Wild will be thrown in on reel 3, giving you the chance to win 50 000 coins. Enjoy the online gaming NZ has to offer at its best when you give the reels of DJ Wild a spin at Vera&John!
