Wildies at Thrill Casino: the complete game guide
Wildies is a Pragmatic Play slot where wild respins and free spins with growing multipliers drive the action. It pays 96.01% in the standard game across 25 paylines on a 5x5 grid, with high volatility.
Before you spin Wildies
When Wild lands: respin and lock. Wildies is a food-themed slot on a 5 by 5 grid that released in May 2024. You win across 25 paylines from left to right. The core mechanic is the Wild symbol, which lands as a 2-symbol block and immediately triggers a respin. Each new Wild that lands during the respin locks in place and boosts the multiplier on your win. With high volatility, wins come less often but can be much bigger. Free Spins mode is the main bonus feature.
Who gets the most from high volatility. Wildies suits players who back high-volatility games and have a session budget for longer dry spells. The food symbols and respin mechanic keep rounds moving even in base game. You can spin from A$0.25 and bet up to A$250, so it fits most budgets. Players who need frequent small wins may find the gaps between payouts frustrating, but if you chase bigger hits, the multiplier stacking can deliver.
Multipliers stack as Wilds lock. Wild Respin is what makes each spin count. When a Wild lands in base game, it locks and the reels respin. If a new Wild lands, it locks too and boosts the multiplier: the second adds x2, the third adds x3, the fourth adds x5, and the fifth adds x10. Any Wilds on the same winning combo have their multipliers added together. The feature ends when no new Wild lands, capping at 5 Wilds locked on the reels.

Wild Respin and multiplier stacking. When a wild lands as a 2-symbol block, it locks in place and the reels respin. Each new wild that lands adds a multiplier: the second raises it to x2, the third to x3, the fourth to x5, and the fifth to x10. Multipliers on the same combination stack together. The respin ends when no new wild lands.
Build your free spins round. Land three, four or five scatters to trigger six free spins. Four scatters start you with one locked wild; five give you two. During free spins, all wilds persist and move to each new position. Every three scatters you collect in the round add one wild plus three extra spins. Wilds carry their multipliers forward. You can reach a maximum of five wilds; no extra round starts after that.
Start your round on the base grid. The base game runs on a 5-by-5 grid with 25 paylines, paying left to right. Three or more matching symbols across a payline create a win. When a wild lands here as a 2-symbol block, it triggers a wild respin, locking those wilds in place while other reels spin again.

What you cannot count on in advance
When will the bonus round start? Bonus rounds may come quickly or take many spins. No pattern predicts when Scatters land, so you cannot plan around how soon Free Spins arrive.
Does the RTP guarantee my results? The RTP sets what the game pays back on average over time, but one session stands alone. You might win more, break even or lose your stake—randomness is always in play.
Wildies: the maximum is nearly impossible. The ceiling of A$1,875,000 sits far above typical wins. That maximum is real but lands so rarely that your session will almost certainly stay well below it.

What you should know before playing
Set a session budget first. Decide how much you can afford to spend on Wildies in each session. This amount should come from money you don't need for essentials. Once you've set it, stick to it.
Stop before the streak ends. Plan when you'll stop playing, whether you've won or lost. High volatility means wins can come suddenly and feel big. Walk away when your plan says to, not when the game feels lucky.
Before and after: use limits. Use your Thrill Casino account limits to cap how much you can deposit or lose over a day, week or month. These tools work in the background so you stay within bounds you've chosen.
You can pause anytime. If Wildies stops feeling enjoyable or you're chasing losses, pause your play or self-exclude. Gambling Help Online, Lifeline Australia and the National Self-Exclusion Register are there when you need support.
