Wilhelm Tell Overview
With a Value Score of 74.1/100, Wilhelm Tell stands out in Yggdrasil's portfolio as a solid option for slot enthusiasts.
Wilhelm Tell is a 5x3 video slot with 20 fixed paylines, where wins form by landing three or more matching symbols starting from the leftmost reel. Basic symbols include card suits (hearts, diamonds, clubs, spades) and themed characters like the knight's guard, Wilhelm Tell, and Gessler, paying up to 150x the line bet. Special symbols feature Wilds depicted as Walter tied to a tree with an apple, appearing stacked and nudging into full view on a reel only when improving a win, potentially creating additional combinations. Scatters are crossbows marked 'Free Spin,' awarding coin wins of 2x to 500x the stake for 3-5 symbols and triggering a free spins selector with three volatility-based options: 10 spins + 5x multiplier, 5 spins + 10x multiplier, or 1 spin + 50x multiplier, without retriggers. Bets range from 0.10 to 50 per spin. Visual style evokes a mountainous Swiss landscape with wooden shacks, green meadows, and blue skies, paired with character-driven icons from the legend. It stands out through the Wild nudge mechanic enhancing base game potential and the player-chosen free spins risk-reward dynamic, alongside a high RTP around 97% in some sources and max win up to 7500x stake.
