Wild Gambler is, on the whole, an easy game to get started with: just set your stake and then you can spin the reels. The only thing you need to look out for is the wild symbol and scatter symbol. The wild symbol can help to create wins, and if 5 land on a payline, it will create a win on its own. However, there is also the ability to lock the wilds in place during the base game using the lock and spin mechanic. This keeps the wilds locked in place for every spin, but increases the stake required for the spin significantly.

The meerkat symbol is the scatter symbol, and this is the key to free spins. When 5 of these land on the reels, the free spins round will start and award 8 spins to players. What makes this round so impressive is that it uses the locking wilds mechanic without increasing the stake level. So, whenever a wild lands, it is locked in place and will stay that way for the rest of the round. This is the most likely way to fill the reels and achieve the maximum win.

While it is technically possible to land the meerkat again during the bonus round, it’s not that likely due to the locking wilds filling up the reels and making it harder to land 5 meerkats.
