The Slavs

The Slavs draws from Eastern European folklore, populating its 5x3 reels with Slavic rulers, druids, warriors, and barrel tops marked with Cyrillic letters. Evoplay's low-volatility design lands the action in a 20-payline structure with a 96.0% RTP, where the Golden Mace wild covers the entire third reel and applies a x3 multiplier when Shield symbols form part of the win. Free Spins introduce a Walking Wild that drifts across the reels in a random direction each spin. The game runs on desktop and mobile and supports crypto play at Wild.io.

What is The Slavs?

The Slavs is a 5x3 video slot from Evoplay with a 96.0% RTP and low volatility, running across 20 paylines. Its standout mechanic is the Golden Mace expanded wild, which covers reel 3 entirely and adds a x3 multiplier to any win that includes a Shield symbol.

Free Spins activate when three or more Scatter symbols land, awarding 10 spins with a Walking Wild mechanic. During the bonus round, any Wild that helps complete a winning combination starts moving across the reels in a random direction on each subsequent spin, staying active and creating additional win paths as it travels. The combination of a base-game multiplier wild and a mobile bonus wild gives the slot two distinct rhythm points.

How To Play The Slavs Slot - Step By Step

Head to Wild.io and create a free account to start playing The Slavs.

1. Set your bet across the 20 paylines. The Slavs uses a fixed-payline structure, so the total bet covers all 20 lines.
2. Spin the base game and watch reel 3 for the Golden Mace symbol. When it lands, it expands to cover the full reel, acting as a wild for all three positions. Any win where the Golden Mace combines with Shield symbols pays at a x3 multiplier.
3. Standard wilds (the bearded totem head) substitute for all regular paying symbols. Use the Wild-assisted paylines to build base-game wins while waiting for the Golden Mace to expand.
4. Three or more Scatter symbols (the Slavic rune embroidery design) landing anywhere trigger 10 Free Spins. The bet level stays the same as the triggering spin.
5. During Free Spins, watch for Walking Wild triggers. When any Wild completes a winning combination, it does not disappear after the win; instead, it moves one position in a random direction on each following spin, covering new reel positions and extending its ability to contribute to more wins.

The Slavs Slot Theme & Graphics

The Slavs places its reels in a setting drawn from pre-Christian Eastern European culture. High-value symbols depict six social archetypes: a ruler wearing ceremonial dress, a druid or priestly figure, a working villager in practical clothes, a warrior, a bard, and a fair maiden with flowers in her hair. Each character is illustrated with genuine detail rather than stylized shorthand, making the symbol art feel grounded in the source culture.

Low-value symbols take the form of colorful barrel tops stamped with Cyrillic alphabet letters, a design choice that keeps the cultural reference consistent down to the game's most minor elements. The reel frame and background imagery use a naturalistic color scheme of earthen tones and forest greens. Evoplay optimized the animations for mobile without losing the detail in the character illustrations, and the Golden Mace expansion effect is clearly communicated at any screen size.

The Slavs Slot Symbols & Paytables

The symbol set in The Slavs is built around cultural authenticity, with six distinct human characters representing high-value positions and Cyrillic barrel tops forming the low tier. The special symbols are where the main mechanics live, through an expanded wild, a walking wild, and a scatter trigger.

Low Value Symbols

Low-value symbols are barrel tops in multiple colors, each marked with a letter from the Cyrillic alphabet. They appear frequently across all reels and provide the base-game payline activity that supports the low-volatility rhythm. These symbols pay at the lower end of the paytable but land often enough to keep wins appearing regularly. The Cyrillic lettering ties them directly to the Slavic theme rather than using generic card rank graphics.

• Colorful barrel tops with Cyrillic alphabet letters (multiple colors)

High Value Symbols

Six character symbols form the high-value tier. A ruler in ceremonial dress represents the top-paying symbol. Below it are a druid or priestly figure, a working villager in simple clothing, a warrior in battle gear, a bard holding an instrument, and a fair maiden with flowers in her hair. These symbols pay the largest standard payline wins, and they form the visual centerpiece of the game. Landing three or more of the top character symbols on a single payline, especially alongside the Golden Mace expanded wild, produces the biggest base-game outcomes.

• Ruler
• Druid/priest
• Working villager
• Warrior
• Bard
• Fair maiden with flowers

Special Symbols

The Golden Mace is the game's most prominent special symbol. When it lands on reel 3, it expands to cover all three row positions on that reel and functions as a wild for every position it occupies. Crucially, any winning combination that includes both the Golden Mace and a Shield symbol pays with a x3 multiplier applied to the line win. A standard wild in the form of a bearded totem head also appears and substitutes for all regular paying symbols. The Scatter symbol uses a Slavic rune embroidery design and can land anywhere on the reels; three or more trigger 10 Free Spins. During the bonus round, any Wild that contributes to a winning combination becomes a Walking Wild: it remains on the reels after the win and shifts one position in a random direction each subsequent spin, creating a chain of additional win opportunities for as long as it stays on the grid.

• Golden Mace Wild (expanded wild covers entire reel 3; 3x multiplier on Shield symbol wins)
• Walking Wild (moves randomly across reels during Free Spins)
• Scatter (Slavic rune embroidery; 3+ triggers 10 Free Spins)
• Wild bearded totem head (substitutes for regular symbols)

The Slavs Bonus Feature & Special Features

Golden Mace Wild

The Golden Mace is an expanded wild that activates on reel 3 specifically. When it lands anywhere on the third reel, it expands immediately to fill all three rows of that reel, turning three positions into wilds in one event. This means the Golden Mace can complete or extend paylines across all 20 lines simultaneously when matching symbols land on adjacent reels. The additional mechanic is the Shield multiplier: any winning combination where the Golden Mace wild combines with Shield symbols pays the line win multiplied by 3x. This makes reel 3 landings with adjacent Shield symbols the most valuable regular event in the base game, and the reason the Golden Mace is central to the slot's identity.

Walking Wild

The Walking Wild mechanic activates during Free Spins only. Any Wild symbol that lands and completes a winning combination does not clear after the win is paid. Instead, it stays on the reels and moves one position in a randomly chosen direction at the start of each subsequent Free Spin. The Wild continues moving and contributing to wins until it exits the reel grid entirely. A Walking Wild that moves toward the center of the grid can remain active for several spins, hitting different paylines with each step. Multiple Wilds can be walking simultaneously if more than one contributes to wins within the same Free Spins session.

Free Spins

Three or more Scatter symbols landing anywhere on the reels during the base game triggers 10 Free Spins at the current bet level. The Walking Wild mechanic is exclusive to this round; Wilds in the base game behave as standard non-moving substitutes. During Free Spins, the Golden Mace can still land and expand on reel 3, so the possibility of a Golden Mace expansion combining with Walking Wilds exists within the bonus. Scatters triggering respins within the round itself is not indicated by available sources; the round appears fixed at 10 spins.
