Big Bad Wolf, explained
Updated 12 Oct 2026What the Big Bad Wolf numbers mean
The RTP comes in two versions: 97% as standard, with a 90% version too, and the paytable shows which one is running. Over a very large number of spins the higher version returns more of what is staked, though any single session can land far above or below it.
The studio rates its volatility as high, so expect stretches without much and wins that arrive in bursts, often when Swooping Reels chain several in a row. Released in 2013, it is one of Quickspin's first slots and has kept its place among the studio's most played games since.
How Big Bad Wolf plays
The reels sit inside a straw house with hills behind it. Card symbols from 10 to Ace are the low pays, while the pigs, the wolf and other animated characters pay more, and the Beehive acts as a regular wild. Every win swoops away and new symbols drop in. Every second Swoop turns one Pig symbol wild, and 6 Swoops in a row turn all three Pigs into wilds.
The Big Bad Wolf free spins
3 Bonus Scatters award 10 free spins with the Blowing Down the House feature. Moons collected on the last reel add extra spins and can unlock a 2x multiplier as the wolf blows each house down. The Pigs Turn Wild feature stays active, so chained wins are where the bigger payouts come from. There is no bonus buy.
