Wicked Tales: Dark Red is a Microgaming slot set in a gothic forest theme, using a 5x3 reel layout and ornate medieval-style artwork. The base game includes standard card symbols, themed icons such as a wolf, bag, axe and candle imagery, plus a Wild symbol that substitutes for regular symbols except Scatter.
The demo version lets players play for free and review the main features before playing for real money. Three Scatter symbols can trigger the Wolf’s Wheel Bonus, while three or more Scatters can also award 9 free spins. The free spins round keeps the same stake level and adds bonus symbols into the feature mode.
Another special feature is the Forest of Fortunes Pick Bonus, where players choose from hidden items to reveal cash prizes, a wolf or an axe. According to the game information, cash wins can be collected with an increasing multiplier, while the bonus can end early depending on the symbols revealed. The interface also shows familiar casino controls such as bet settings, autoplay and max bet.
