Wolf Peak, Cat Peak & Fu Ren Wu Advantage Play Strategy

Manufacturer: IGT

How the advantage works

Wolf Peak and its clones, Cat Peak and Fu Ren Wu, feature expanding wilds that stay around for four spins. The expanding wilds have a yellow background with orange text that says “WILD.” There will be a chevron arrow that points either up or down, indicating which direction the wild will expand. After the wilds fully expand to cover the reel, they will disappear on the next spin.

Additional notes on Wolf Peak, Cat Peak & Fu Ren Wu

  • The direction of the yellow chevron arrow doesn’t indicate how tall the wilds will get—all yellow wilds will expand in either direction until they cover the entire reel (four spaces tall).

  • You must put money in to check this machine, which makes checking for plays slightly more difficult.

  • It’s common to find plays on this game because ploppies have a hard time grasping the expanding wilds mechanic.

  • This game can pay out massively when multiple wilds are active, especially when there are 2x and 3x multipliers involved. I once saw a guy playing this on a $6.40 bet level win a handpay and then five minutes after the slot attendant paid him, he won a second handpay.

Do not play the purple wilds that look like this—they don’t stick around like the yellow ones.

This was an amazing walk-up play that I found.

Occasionally you will find plays like this where the wilds are already four spaces tall, but there is still a yellow chevron. This is due to the wilds overlapping. You can still play this for two more spins.
