Wolf's Bane
Gothic werewolf slot from NetEnt — the full moon rises and transforms symbols into stacked wilds with howling free spins under a blood-red sky.
About Wolf's Bane
Wolf's Bane by NetEnt is a gothic horror slot set in a moonlit Eastern European village where werewolves prowl the cobblestone streets. Playing across 5 reels and 10 paylines with NetEnt's signature cinematic quality, the game features an atmospheric cast of symbols including silver stakes, wolfsbane flowers, medieval lanterns, the werewolf hunter, and the fearsome werewolf himself as the top wild symbol. NetEnt's Full Moon Wilds feature is the game's base game engine — each time the full moon rises on the background meter, all werewolf symbols on the reels transform into stacked wilds, converting entire reel columns in a howling transformation sequence.
Wolf's Bane features three distinct free spin modes, each with a unique flavour: the Werewolf Free Spins with random stacked wilds, the Hunter Free Spins with guaranteed wild reels on each spin, and the Wolfsbane Free Spins with expanding wilds that grow to cover entire reels. Players choose their preferred free spin mode after triggering the bonus with 3 or more moon scatter symbols, giving Wolf's Bane exceptional player agency over bonus strategy. The 96.31% RTP and enormous 2,500x maximum win make Wolf's Bane one of NetEnt's most powerful horror-themed releases.

Strategy Tips
Wolf's Bane's three free spin modes give players genuine strategic choice. Understanding which mode best suits your stake level and risk tolerance is the primary strategic decision in this game.
Hunter Free Spins for Consistency
The Hunter Free Spins mode guarantees a wild reel on every free spin. For players entering the bonus at a higher stake level, this guaranteed coverage delivers more consistently large payouts than the random wild distribution of Werewolf mode — recommended for maximising bonus EV at any stake.
Wolfsbane Mode for Maximum Peak
If you are chasing the 2,500x maximum win, Wolfsbane Expanding Wilds mode offers the highest single-spin payout potential. When expanding wilds cover 3+ reels simultaneously in this mode, the resulting wins dwarf the consistent but smaller Hunter mode payouts.
Track the Full Moon Meter
The Full Moon Meter is visible throughout the base game. Track its progression — when the meter reaches the final phase before full moon, the next 1–3 spins have the highest probability of triggering the stacked wild transformation. Maintain your stake at this point.

FAQ
For consistent high payouts, choose Hunter Free Spins — guaranteed wild reels on every spin create reliable large combinations. For maximum win chasing, choose Wolfsbane Expanding Wilds — the expanding wild coverage can create the conditions for the 2,500x jackpot more readily. Werewolf Free Spins falls between the two in terms of risk and reward balance.
The Full Moon Meter at the side of the reels fills progressively with each base game spin. When the meter reaches full, the moon rises to its fullest point in the sky and all werewolf symbols currently visible on the reels transform into stacked wild symbols for that spin resolution. The meter then resets.
