Pragmatic Play · 2022
Greedy Wolf is a high volatility video slot from Pragmatic Play. This page covers its figures, bonus modes and what each symbol pays.
Demo is free; the real game needs an account and you must be 18+.
Five reels of four rows make up the 5x4 grid, and the game pays on 20 fixed paylines read from left to right, starting on the leftmost reel. Animal and fairy tale characters fill the symbols: the Wolf, three pigs, a Hammer and a Trowel, and the A, K and Q cards. A win can start with just two matching symbols on a payline, so short runs count too.
Six or more Scatters start Free Spins with 6 spins, and 3, 4 or 5 Scatters during the round add 1, 2 or 4 more. Greedy Wolf Wild turns the pigs into Wolf symbols, while 3 Little Pigs Wilds bring Respins. Each Scatter upgrades a house from straw to castle, and the Wolf blows them away after the spins, each revealing a money prize.

When scatters land
Read this before your first spin, or when the scatters start to land.
6+ SCATTER symbols land and start the round with 6 free spins. Hitting 3, 4 or 5 SCATTERs in the round retriggers +1, +2 or +4 free spins. Marked positions become houses, and the wolf blows each away to reveal a prize of 1x-500x the total bet.
Base game reels6 free spins
5 SCATTER symbols trigger Free Spins while Ante Bet is active, instead of 6. The sign hangs left of the reels, and switching it on raises the total bet by 25%.
Standard total betFree Spins sooner
Spins run left to right across the 5x4 grid on 20 fixed paylines. Random spins may add modifiers: a stacked WOLF on reel 3 turns every PIG into WOLF, while 3 Little Pigs add WILDs to reels 1-3, where the wolf starts a respin or blows them away.

Know before betting
Settles how one round runs from bet to payout, including the bonus and the session limit.
The 5x4 grid spins at every bet from A$0.20 up to A$300. The reels also run with Ante Bet, switched on by a hanging sign, at 25% more total bet.
Wins are read left to right from the leftmost reel across 20 fixed paylines. Two matching symbols in a row from reel one already pay, so short runs still count.
Some spins bring a stacked WOLF to reel 3, turning PIGs into WOLF. Wilds land on reels 1 to 3, then the wolf shifts them into respins or blows them away.
Six or more SCATTERs on the reels start Free Spins, beginning with 6 spins. Extra SCATTERs upgrade a marked spot from straw to castle. Five are enough with Ante Bet.
The reels keep turning until the balance is spent, and no one can tell in advance how a session ends. Set your loss limit before the first spin.

Learn the rhythm
Settles whether you test Greedy Wolf with no stake or go to real money
The demo needs no money and pays nothing. The real game needs an account at Winshark Casino and you must be 18+.
Start playingEach spin lands symbols on the 5x4 grid at random, and no spin shows when the bonus round is due. The result of one session stays random whatever the RTP, so a quiet run says nothing about the next one. Nobody can predict how often the bonus appears, so treat every session as a single random run.
The 20 paylines pay as the rules set, and only the game rules show which RTP version Winshark Casino runs for this lobby slot. Check that section before you start, because the version sets the RTP your bets run on.
A winning combination pays a multiple of the bet, and the top multiple for Greedy Wolf is x3,000. That figure is a ceiling, not a target, and a session reaches it very rarely. Read the top prize as the most the game can pay, never as an expected result.
Four questions answered
You will know how volatile Greedy Wolf is, its top prize and the bets you can place.
Each spin on the 5x4 grid of Greedy Wolf can run long without a win, because the game is rated high volatility. Larger wins are rarer, and they come with bigger swings in the balance. Plan each session around that swing.
Reels can pay up to x3,000 the bet on Greedy Wolf, so the top prize grows with the stake. At an A$5 bet, the top prize reaches A$15,000.
