Gameplay, Playability and Volatility
With the standard video slot features, such as scatters and wild symbols, Exotic Cats is a video slot that makes sure players know what they are getting from the start. However, it does do some things slightly differently, as is shown by the vertical wilds feature.
Vertical wilds
Each reel is guarded by a specific cat. If you manage to land that cat on that reel then the whole reel will turn wild. This means that it is possible to turn the whole board wild. This will award a huge payout, although it is very difficult to pull off. The vertical wilds feature can be used during the free spins mode.
Free spins
If you land 3 or more scatter symbols on the reels at any time you will be awarded 10 free spins. As already mentioned the vertical wilds can be triggered during this mode. In addition to this if you land 3 or more scatters during the free spins mode you will be rewarded with an extra 5 free spins.
Volatility
Due to having a medium volatility you don’t have to wait for a long time between wins. Exotic Cats does have the added bonus of having the potential for quite lucrative wins.
RTP, Wagers and payouts
Exotic Cats has an RTP of 96.30% which is slightly above the market average.
The maximum wager of €30 is well below what high bankroll players expect for a game they want to dedicate a long period of time to.. The minimum wager of €0.15 does mean that low bankroll players can easily play for long periods though. The maximum payout of up to 3,533 times your stake is an excellent payout though, especially for a game with such a low maximum wager.
Exotic Cats: Overall
Exotic Cats is a very enjoyable game. It has some nice features and the payouts are in general quite generous. The only real negative is that it could do with one of two additional features just to increase how engaging it is in the long term. With a few extra features it could be one of the best slots around. 3.9/5
