Play Alpha Gods Baphomet WildSurge

Alpha Gods Baphomet WildSurge is the third in PearFiction Studios' Alpha Gods series. This 5-reel, 20-payline slot mixes unlockable Wild Surge features with jackpots, LockNWin bonuses, and a bonus wheel. There is plenty happening here, but it all follows a structure that gradually builds as more features become available over time. 

Alpha Gods Baphomet WildSurge keeps the online slots cartoon style PearFiction Studios is recognised for, but still manages to look a bit menacing. Not surprising really because, if the evidence presented at the Knights Templar trials of the 14th century is to be believed, Baphomet is a pretty scary dude. 

Here he’s represented as a pretty buff character with a goat’s head and bat wings, towering over the jackpot ladder to the left of the grid. Four of the seven deadly sins, Greed, Wrath, Gluttony, and Lust, have tagged along for the ride and perch on top of the 6x4 grid and a couple of gargoyles with glowing yellow eyes flank it at the bottom.  

Special symbols: 

• Wild Symbol: Substitutes for all regular symbols to help complete winning combinations.  
• Jackpot Fireball Symbol: Bumps up the jackpot meterwhen it lands and can trigger the Jackpot Wheel feature. 
• Bonus Symbols: Collected by the little devils on top of the grid (Gluttony, Wrath, Lust, or Greed) and can trigger the LockNWin UpZones feature. 
• Fireball Symbols: These come into play in the LockNWin UpZones feature. They lock into position and carry values ranging from 0.5x to 100x the stake.  
• Star Symbols: Landing one on every reel instantly triggers the Bonus Wheel feature. 

Wild Surge 

A counter sits beside the reels, gradually unlocking extra modifiers as you play. Every time a Wild Surge symbol lands, one of the unlocked features can kick in. 

It starts fairly simple with Fiery Zones that turn symbols into wilds, but the longer you play, the more tricks get added to the mix. 

• Respins: Locks any existing wilds and winning symbols in place before respinning the rest of the reels.  
• Symbol Removal: Strips out all the low-paying card suit symbols. 
• Wild Stacks: Wilds land stacked to fill their reel. 
• Multiplier Upgrade: Adds multipliers from x2 up to x10 to wild symbols.  

Jackpots 

Jackpot Fireball symbols contribute towards four jackpot levels: Mini, Minor, Major and Mega. Land enough of them and you may get a spin of the Jackpot Wheel, where the biggest prize carries a potential payout of up to 5,000x your stake. 

LockNWin UpZones 

Different bonus symbols fill the Gluttony, Wrath, Lust and Greed pots, with each one awarding a different version of the feature. 

Fireballs carrying cash values lock onto the reels, while special UpZones can trigger modifiers like Collectors, Multipliers, Extra Spins and Jackpot Wheel awards.  

Bonus Wheel Instant Trigger 

Collect a Star symbol on every reel and you'll head straight to the Bonus Wheel.  

Alpha Gods Baphomet WildSurge uses a 5x4 reel layout with 20 fixed paylines. Winning combinations are formed by landing matching symbols from left to right across active paylines. 

If you like the fire and brimstone vibes of this game, check out the following from our online casino library: 

• Ammit Hellfire by Wishbone, this 5 reel slot offers standard line wins along with a Collect Feature, mystery prize drops and a respin bonus driven by multipliers built in the base game.  
• 3 Wicked Devils by Skywind uses twin grids, fireball multipliers, walking wilds, and a shared bonus engine.  
• Gates of Hades offers cluster wins and sticky wild multipliers on a 6x6 grid. 

We found Alpha Gods Baphomet WildSurge to be one of those slots where the feature list is almost as long as the paytable. There is always something counting down, unlocking, collecting, upgrading, or triggering somewhere on the screen. The Wild Surge progression system also adds a sense of development as more modifiers become available. 

On the other hand, newcomers may need a little time to understand how all the moving parts fit together. Between jackpots, bonus pots, UpZones, and Wild Surge modifiers, there's quite a bit to absorb. 

Players who enjoy feature-heavy slots with multiple bonus paths will likely get the most from this one.
