Slot Details

The Wild Swarm slot plays on a grid with 5 reels and 4 rows, and there are 20 paylines.  Winning combinations are formed when you land 3 or more matching symbols which land from left to right, beginning from the leftmost reel. For the $ sign symbol, however, you need to land 2 or more, as this is the highest-value symbol.

Bets for this game start at 20p and go up to £100. You can use the arrow next to the ‘Total Bet’ box on your screen to toggle between the bet amounts. Non-UK players can utilise the Autoplay option to automatically spin the reels.

The RTP rate is 97.03% which is well above above the online average of 96%. There are also rates of 95.55% and 95.67%, so it depends on which site you play at. 

The Wild Swarm slot has a medium to high volatility rating and a max win amount of 3,100 x the bet.

Theme, Audio + Symbols

The Wild Swarm slot game leads you straight into a buzzing forest adventure. Picture this - lush greenery, buzzing bees, fireflies and hidden treasures -  it's a dreamy setting. This upbeat and colourful slot includes a musical score that wouldn’t be out of place in a Hollywood blockbuster. The sound effects hit the mark, too, with a chilled-out nature vibe mixed with the hum of bees and leaves rustling. 

The grid continues the nature vibe as it’s made up of wood mixed with flourishing green leaves. The reel symbols are attractive, with colourful flowers, honey pots, and beehives, and even the lower-value symbols have a vegetation twist. 

Here are the values of all of the symbols on the reels: 

  • J:3 = 0.2, 4 = 0.75 or 5 = 2 x bet
  • Q: 3 = 0.2, 4 = 0.75 or 5 = 2.5 x bet
  • K: 3 = 0.2, 4 = 1 or 5= 2.5 x bet
  • A: 3 = 0.2, 4 = 1 or 5 = 3 x bet
  • Purple Flower: 3 = 0.4, 4 = 2 or 5 = 7 x bet
  • White Flower: 3 = 0.4, 4 = 2 or 5 = 7 x bet
  • Honey: 3 = 0.6, 4 = 3 or 5 = 10 x bet
  • Queen Bee: 3 = 1,3, 4 or 5 = 0.5, 2, 10 or 30 x bet
  • $: 2 = 0.5, 3 = 2, 4 = 10 or 5 = 30 x bet
  • Wild Honey: Substitutes for all paying symbols that are above
  • Treasure Chest: Triggers Pick feature
  • Hive Scatter: 3+ triggers the Free Games feature
  • Bee: Collect bees to trigger Swarm Mode feature
  • Sticky Wild: Only appears during Swarm Mode feature


Wild Swarm Mobile

Wild Swarm can be enjoyed on mobile, tablet, and desktop devices, including smartphones operating with iOS and Android systems. However, the best gaming experience can be found when playing on desktop.


Bonus Features

Wild Swarm has some excellent bonus features which I’ll tell you more about here so sit tight:

Instant Prizes Picker

During the base game, the Purple Flower may land and you then flip into Picker mode to choose your prize. Multiple hives will appear on the screen, and you select one to reveal. Prizes can be instant wins up to 200 x the bet, Free Games or the Swarm Mode features as you can see below.

Free Games

If you land 3 or more Hive Scatter symbols, it will trigger the Free Games round where you’ll receive up to 15 free spins. During the round all of the Wilds are sticky.

Swarm Mode

Here you collect all of the bees you can to boost the hive for a chance to trigger the frantic Swarm Mode feature. During this feature, there will be endless Sticky Wilds giving you huge win potential.

Expert Verdict

Warm Swarm hits the sweet spot as soon as you launch the game with its high-quality graphics, immersive sounds, and exciting features. The magical woodland backdrop makes for a cheery slots experience.

The 97.03% RTP rate is superb and is one of highest I’ve seen in a long time which is a top selling point. One negative is the max win amouint as 3,100 x the bet is pretty poor for a medium/high volatility title.

The honey covered Sticky Wilds during the Free Games and Swarm Mode were a highlight for me as these have the potential for significant payouts. 

If you’re a fan of Push Gaming we have written an article about its best slot games. This studio's top titles include Razor Returns and Fat Rabbit.

All in all, I had a blast with the Wild Swarm slot—such great bonus features and theme—it’s definitely a must-try.

Bingo players miss out all the time – better rooms, fairer bonuses, and friendlier communities are out there, but they’re not always easy to find. 

That’s where I come in. 

I’ve spent over 17 years in the online gambling industry, with most of that time focused on bingo, including hands-on roles with Gala Bingo and Ladbrokes Bingo.

I know how bingo sites work behind the scenes, how offers are really put together, and where the genuine value is for players (hint: it’s not always the biggest bonus).

Since joining OLBG in 2014, I’ve been reviewing bingo sites, highlighting underrated rooms, and helping players avoid the common mistakes that can ruin a good game. 

I enjoy a game of bingo myself and have loved seeing how the industry has evolved, which means I judge sites the same way you do – as a player.

I’m not here to push flashy promotions. 

I’m here to help you find the right bingo game for YOU, whether you care most about low stakes, great chat, or decent bonuses.

With 20+ years' experience in the online gambling industry, I've reviewed more than 10,000 slot games along the way. Having worked with slot studios as well as casino and slots operators, I offer honest slot reviews, exclusive access and put your interests (the player) first.

Slots can be fun, but they can also be confusing.
With so many slots out there, it’s easy to end up with run of the mill games, boring mechanics or bonus features that don't offer much excitement. That’s why I focus on reviewing games honestly, breaking down what actually matters, and helping you find the right slot game. If a game is bad or if there is a better alternative, you'll know.

I don’t promote hype, just the best sites to play your favourite games.
I guide you to the top slot sites that are worth their time, including a look at at available deposit methods, withdrawal times, games offering, welcome offers, promotions for existing players, mobile compatibility and much more.

My goal is simple 

Make sure you don’t waste time or money on second-rate slots or slot sites. In a nutshell, I’m here to help you find better games, better sites, smarter bonuses, and a more rewarding way to play.
