iSoftBet's Max Win W.P.D is a volatile, cartoon-style police and criminals slot with 5x3 reels and 10 paylines. You have access to high-value wilds in the base game, and the appearance of Max the Cop can result in guaranteed "big wins" or the bonus round. The latter comes with persistent multiplier wilds and a potential of 7,976x.
Max Win W.P.D. is statistically middle of the road (in a positive sense), with winning potential leaning towards the higher end. Extremely volatile and accepting wagers of 10 pence to ten pounds or euros per spin, players can anticipate a theoretical return value of 96% and a strike rate of 27.9%. Hits occur when three, four, or five identical symbols appear left to right on one of the game's 10 fixed paylines, which consists of a 5-reel, 3-row grid.
With regards to Max Win W.P.D's premium pay symbols, law enforcement is the name of the game. In ascending order, these are restraints, a prison, a police dog, a female officer, Max, and a badge emblem. Premiums pay four to twenty times the wager for a five-of-a-kind, but only two to four times the wager for a line of five 10-A card ranks. The wild symbol appears on all reels and substitutes for all standard pay symbols. Five Wild symbols on a successful payline are worth up to 100 times the wager.
Three, four, or five scatter symbols on the grid trigger ten, twelve, or fifteen free spins, respectively. Whenever a wild symbol appears during free spins, it becomes tenacious and remains in place until the end of the bonus round. When two wild symbols appear on the same reel, they become locked and transform into x2 multipliers. When an x2 wild multiplier contributes to a win, it doubles the amount of the victory. When three wilds appear on the same reel, they become persistent x3 multipliers. When a win passes through an x3 wild multiplier, it is multiplied by 3 as before.
There is a catch, however. If multiple wild multipliers appear on a winning line, only one multiplier will be applied to the gain. Wild multipliers are never added together or multiplied prior to use. If the multipliers for wild cards have distinct values, the multiplier with the highest value is used. Finally, two additional free spins are awarded if at least one persistent wild lands on each of the five reels.
