Slot Summary

Wild Hike is Relax Gaming’s outdoors slot seen through a darker, late-night lens. Instead of presenting nature as calm and scenic, it turns a woodland hike into something closer to a midnight trek, framed by the provider as a game for “cold winter nights.” That gives a familiar animals-and-forest theme a more suspenseful identity. Within Relax’s portfolio, it sits as a high-volatility release aimed at players and stream audiences looking for a recognisable setting with stronger win-potential positioning. Its expanding wild re-spin idea may also feel familiar to players who know Iron Bank, which helps place it within Relax’s broader catalogue.

Bankroll survival simulator

How long could a bankroll last on Wild Hike? We simulate thousands of sessions from this game's published RTP and volatility — the long-run math, not a prediction of your next spin.

Volatility tier: High

Running simulation…
How this works

Each simulated spin either misses or returns a win drawn from a log-normal distribution, with the hit rate and spread set by the slot's volatility tier (High). The model is calibrated so the average return equals this slot's published RTP (96.09%), with wins capped at its top multiplier (20,000×).

This is a simplified, parametric model of the game's math — not its real paytable. It exists to make the house edge visible over many sessions, so the numbers above are averages across thousands of runs, never a forecast of one.

This is math, not a prediction. Real sessions vary wildly, and no strategy changes a game's built-in house edge. Play for fun, set limits, and never bet more than you can afford to lose.
