Dr Jekyll Goes Wild, a new Sticky Wilds Big Bet Slot Release From Barcrest/SGi.
Casumo Casino has added a new Big Bet slot from Barcrest/SGi to their casino titled Dr Jekyll Goes Wild, this is a regular 5×3 reel slot with 10 paylines and a variety of different Big Bet modes on offer which go as high as £/€50 for 5 spins.
It’s important to note whilst the Big Bet Modes are very expensive they offer a much easier way to trigger bonus rounds, and with 75 Free Spins on offer whilst playing them, and in this case Sticky Wilds they can produce some massive wins.
The main Negative to the Big Bet mode is the inherent volatility of these slots, whilst you pay a premium of up to €50 for 5 spins, these are played at 0.20 credits per line (€2 spins), the rest is the cost towards the extra functionality and ease of triggering the bonus rounds.
Certainly, very risky slots so approach with caution and check them out in play mode first to understand the different Big Bet modes!
In Big Bet Mode, the main free spins bonus round is triggered by collecting a specific number of the special Wild Symbols during the 5 spins (dependant on stake), with a handy meter recording your progress, collecting more of these symbols progresses you up the meter and will reward more free spins up to the maximum 75.

Dr Jekyll Goes Wild Slot – Bonus Features
The main free spins bonus round is triggered by collecting a specific number of the special Wild symbols whilst playing in Big Bet Mode with a maximum initial trigger of 75 free spins possible, along with quite easy re-triggers during the round which grants an extra 3 free spins each time.
There is one more free spins mode to unlock whilst playing the regular free spins which grant Unlimited Hyde Free Spins, and this is where this slot really gets interesting.
To trigger the Unlimited Hyde Free Spins mode firstly you need to land the special green potion on reel 1, then you need just 1 wild symbol to land in view which then triggers this special Sticky Wilds Mode.
Unlimited Hyde Free Spins
Once this special mode is triggered any wild symbols that land in view and locked in place (Sticky Wilds) and you are given unlimited free spins whilst this mode is active, the only thing that halts this bonus round is a special egg timer symbol on the reel 5 which can turn into a Stop symbol ending the round.
It’s possible to trigger this mode several times during the free spins round, especially with a 75 free spins trigger.

Overall Thoughts
As Big Bet Slots go Dr. Jekyll Goes Wild is one of the better releases from Barcrest, the graphics and sound are well themed and the range of Big Bet modes and regular play mode should cover all budgets.
The chance of up to 75 Free Spins along with the special Hyde Sticky Wild free spins mode should definitely appeal to players and can be very rewarding too if you manage to get a held line of Sticky Wilds on the reels.
The main negative is the broad range of the slots RTP (Return To Player) – which can vary from 94.2% right up to 98.2% dependent on stake size and Big Bet Mode, so definitely have a quick scan through the paytable before playing.
Our advice would be to take this slot for a spin in Big Bet Mode using play money first to fully understand how it works, whilst they can be extremely rewarding they can also eat through a bank balance very quickly too!
