Bonus Rounds and Payouts
Amazon Wild contains many symbols, but a select few offer payouts that are far more generous than the others. The highest-paying animal symbols are the Panther (1000 coins for 5 in a row), the Monkey (500 coins for 5 in a row), the Chameleon (200 coins for 5 in a row), and the Tree Frog (50 coins for 5 in a row).
One major bonus feature, called ‘The Map Bonus,’ takes the excitement of Amazon Wild to new levels. To trigger this bonus, you must land at least 3 Map Scatter Symbols on the reels. Once you've done that, you'll be shown a map of Aztec ruins and will be asked to select a certain number of them. How many depends on how many scatter symbols you landed. Each ruin does something different and awards a different prize.
The symbol for Scatter Bonus can also be observed as a separate symbol that delivers quite a welcome bonus. To illustrate, if a player connects five Map Bonus symbols linearly and is playing at the maximum bet, that player can be awarded as much as 2000 coins.
Additional Game Features
A few other features worth mentioning are part of having a Wild symbol. When a player encounters the Wild symbol (which is represented by an Aztec mask), it can do what wilds do best: replace other symbols to create winning combinations. The Wild symbol cannot replace Scatter symbols, but it can replace any other symbol in the game. Also, for the Wild symbols that land on reels 2, 3, or 4, the Wilds can do what Wilds are sometimes known for doing, and that is to expand.
Many modern slot games feature the AutoPlay function. It serves to automatically spin the reels at the player's desired bet—a spin speed setting, if you will—to make the game less tedious and maybe even to make it seem a bit more exciting. Why is this even potentially problematic?

Summary
Wild Amazon is an extremely impressive game made by Ash Gaming. It's the detail of the graphics that really add value to this title, with the multitude of different symbols across the five reels. Yet even though symbols are so plentiful and are quite different from one another, this game stays relatively easy to comprehend and play.
Betting options cater to a clear range of player preferences, but without becoming overly confusing for first-time bettors. This is a truly great game, one of the best in nature themes, and it should be tried by all.
