Wild Robo Factory from Yggdrasil Gaming: Slot Review - join the evil AI!

Step foot inside a dark and mysterious factory where machines run the show in this new game from leading software provider Yggdrasil Gaming. Evil robots with bad intentions are the head honchos of the factory in question as they keep a very close eye on their 12 mechanical servants by working them to the bone and turning them Wild in the process. It is up to us to find these robots on the conveyor belts in order to not only set them free from their evil masters but also to land a big cash payout for doing so! Read on to see how we fare.

Wild Robo Factory is a 5 reel slot game with 25 paylines that includes Stacked Wilds, Respins, Upgraded Symbols, and Free Spins.

Special Features

The first thing you will notice when you play this slot is that components of robots will appear as symbols such as hands and chest plates on the reels. Keep a close eye on the amber coloured robot symbols as these special symbols make up the Wild symbols and act as individual Wild symbols. They substitute for all regular symbols, can appear stacked on the reels, and as 2X Wild symbols up to 2 reels wide. You will spot these Wilds on the conveyor belt which move 1 position to the left for each spin and if you happen to have a 2X Wild Robo symbol as part of a winning payline then you will double your winnings.

In the main game, the Robo Respin feature can trigger randomly and when it does then a Robo is placed on the conveyor belt on reels 2, 3, 4, or 5. As long as an active Robo remains on the reels then you will keep on receiving Respins one after the other until a Robo reaches reel 1. When it does then the feature will end.

The Robo Free Spins bonus round is activated by landing 3 or more Free Spin symbols on any regular spin. In this fun bonus game, you will be given a number of Robos on the conveyor belt, which move from left to right and award Free Spins until they reach reel 1. 3 Free Spin symbols gets you 5 Robos, 4 awards 10 Robos, while 5 will give you 15 Robos. You can get your hands on Extra Free Spins by landing the Free Spins symbol during the feature. In addition to this, the conveyor belt can reverse in Free Spins to move all the Robos backwards 1 to 9 positions. This is known as the System Overload feature and allows you to create more winning chances to get even more Free Spins and hopefully more cash payouts too.

The final feature is the Symbol Swap feature. This is a random bonus event which when triggered upgrades low-value symbols into high-value symbols so that you are guaranteed a winning combination on the reels. Pleasingly, it can trigger not only in the base game but also in Free Spins and the Robo Respins feature.

Theme, Graphics and Sound

In terms of visuals, this game is just awesome to look at and more importantly play. It takes place inside an industrial factory setting with conveyor belts transporting robot parts along with a huge menacing robot overseeing proceedings in the background. Symbols are intricately detailed and consist of Robotic Hands, Chestplates, Heads, as well as classic Hearts/Diamonds/Spades/Clubs playing card icons. The animations are wonderful as symbols fly down the reels and are highlighted nicely by a bright blue crackle of electricity when part of a win on the reels. It is particularly exciting when you trigger the Respin feature as a Wild Robo appears on the screen and moves from one reel to the next as the reels spin once more.

The music is techno-based with a real sinister edge to it. It fits in really well with the Robot theme of the slot.
