William Tell & The Wild Arrows

Discover the history of the Swiss legend William Tell and learn about the feats of arms that made him popular

William Tell is a legendary hero of Swiss folklore who was known as a skilled mountaineer, crossbowman and father of the Swiss Confederation. The earliest written records about him date back to the 15th century and indicate that he lived around the beginning of the 14th century. There have been many debates about whether he really existed or not since the early modern era. Some historians believe that it is nothing more than a fable inspired by the ancient Swiss legend of Palnatoki.

An arrow can split a position into 4 during the Hold & Win bonus.

On the paytable of this slot you will see William Tell himself, and he can award you a 16x win if you line up a full line of 5 of his identical symbols. The next symbol is an aristocrat wearing a black and white retro hat, and you can get 12x your bet if you land 5 of the same type. You will also notice a female character who will award you 8x your bet for a complete line. The last high value symbol is illustrated by a soldier offering a reward of 6x your bet for 5 of the same type.

There are also three medium value symbols in this game, looking like oil paintings, the most lucrative of which will award you 4x your bet for five of the same type. To finish with the winnings part, there are the lower value elements consisting of five royals capable of rewarding you with 2x your bet if you also manage to line up 5 of the same type.

Step right into a sequence of impressive wins with amazing modifiers

Williams Wild Arrow Modifier

This modifier can be randomly triggered at the end of each round of the base game, turning up to 5 positions into wild symbols in the process.

Gessler Greed modifier

This is a modifier that, like the previous one, can be triggered randomly during the basic game. It is a one-trick feature that removes all low-value symbols from the reels. Theoretically, this can lead to a winning combination of lucrative symbols.

The Hold & Win Feature

Once you trigger this feature, your respin counter will be reset to 3 and your target symbols will be locked in their current positions. After that, the reels will start spinning in the normal way again, but you will have to pay special attention to the target symbols. That’s because all the targets that land will reset your spin counter to 3. Each target has a value ranging from 1x to 100x your current bet. If you fail to land any target symbols in three consecutive spins, you are returned to the base game. The values of all the visible targets after this feature is completed will be added together to determine your win.

When an arrow lands on a position while this feature is active, the position will be split into four smaller positions, which will allow you to get bigger wins. On the paytable you can see the entire area of the reel that has been split into smaller positions. This gives you the opportunity to win 60 prizes from this feature in one go. It is worth mentioning that this feature also offers three jackpot prizes worth 20x, 50x and 100x your bet respectively.

The Bonus Buy feature

In this game you have the option of skipping the base game and going straight to the Hold & Win bonus game. However, this advantage will cost you 60x the normal cost per spin.
