In Play’n GO’s latest release, players will follow the daughter of the legendary Rich Wilde as she seeks more treasures of the past in Cat Wilde and the Incan Quest.

Adding on to the widely established Wilde series lore, with popular titles such as Rich Wilde and the Book of Dead, Cat Wilde and the Pyramids of Dead and Gerard’s Gambit, this latest release sees the tenacious Cat Wilde venture to South America in search of the lost treasures of the Incan Empire.

During the base game, players will spin the 5×3 reels creating winning combinations of symbols across the game’s 10 paylines. While the reels spin, players will also get the chance to unlock a number of exciting bonus features, including the Falling Wilds Re-Spins. For this feature, whenever a Wild symbol lands on one of the middle three reels, it will remain on the reels, dropping down one space on each subsequent spin until falling from the reels.

Players that enjoy previous titles in the Wilde series of games as well as games such as Legacy of Dead, Pilgrim of Dead, and others in the Book of Dead series, will be thrilled to try this latest title. Featuring familiar gameplay mechanics and designs as other Wilde series games, while also bringing fresh features like the Falling Wilds Re-Spins and the Hold and Spin style Bonus Game, Cat Wilde and the Incan Quest brings a fresh twist to the series.

George Olekszy, Head of Game Retention said: “We’re always beyond happy to release a new title in the Wilde series. These characters are very dear to us at Play’n GO, and expanding upon their lore with these new adventures is just brilliant. We can’t wait for fans to join Cat on this new expedition.”

Cat Wilde and the Incan Quest joins the Wilde series, bringing players to a fresh new setting. This title is sure to be yet another stellar addition to this iconic series.
