The game is a 40 credit, 40 line structure on a 5×4 reel set, enough coverage combined with those stacked wilds to have some shots at good hits when they come around. Of course, when they don’t come out, the game can be pretty tough, but that’s what makes it fun.
The stacked wilds, paired with a pretty generous pay table overall, can make for some really good hits when the right circumstances arise. The example in my picture at the top of the page is a 35x line hit, without that many lines involved to begin with. One of the key reasons is the stacked wild symbols, which come out frequently enough to deliver line hits that can be consequential. The fact that many casinos still have the original version, and newer casinos put the game out in an updated form (along with sequels like Wolf Run Gold), underscores a game’s popularity. Certain games stand the test of time on a casino floor, and Wolf Run is a great example of one of them.
