Picking your first Wild Clusters spin
Pick this game if you like cluster slots with gem and space themes. Wild Clusters is played on a 7x7 grid. A win needs five or more matching symbols connected horizontally or vertically. Winning symbols then cascade away and new ones fall in, so one spin can chain several wins. The symbols are gems and card suits, from Pink Gem to Spade.
Choose this game if you want more than plain cluster wins. Progress Meter and Galaxy Features are active in the Base Game, along with Lucky Wilds and Mega Symbols. A Highlighted Special Symbol is also active. The feature list also includes Level Progression, Random Wilds, Symbol Transform, Giant Symbol, Multiplier and Wild Multiplier.

Wild Clusters guide
Know the order before your first stake
After reading, you will have followed one round from bet to bonus.
Set the bet before spinning
Pick your bet first, anywhere from A$0.60 up to A$100. Each bonus price is a multiple of that bet, so a higher bet makes every bonus cost more.
Clusters of five or more
Look for five or more matching symbols joined horizontally or vertically. Each winning cluster pays, then cascades: its symbols clear and new ones drop in, which can form another win.
Watch the Progress Meter
Watch the Progress Meter and Galaxy Features while the cascades run. Lucky Wilds, Mega Symbols and the Highlighted Special Symbol are all active in the base game.
Wild Clusters starts with wilds
Pick the Wild Boost X3 feature buy to start with wilds on the grid. The round opens with 3 wild symbols in a horizontal line at the centre.
Spending limit before first spin
Set your limit before the first spin, and decide the loss you will accept. When you reach it, stop playing, whatever the grid shows.
When the feature lands
Bonus features and rounds, step by step
We set out how each feature starts and what it does, in plain terms, before any spin.
Before the cross of five wilds
This feature buy is set at 24x total bet. The spin starts with 5 wild symbols in a cross formation at the centre of the grid. The RTP sits at 96.68%.
Base Game gridCross-shaped wilds
What does the tile multiply?
Feature buy at 200x total bet. It first activates 4 random Galaxy Features, then the Wild Blast feature: a 3x3 wild tile with a random x1/x2/x3/x4/x5/x100 multiplier applied to any cluster it connects to. The RTP is 96.85%.
Base Game screenMultiplier wilds
Four high-paying gems, one spin
A single spin at 92x total bet, the grid holds only the four high-paying gem symbols. A dead outcome with no win auto-triggers Wild Blast at odds of 1 in 5.66 spins (17.66%). A win ends the round with that cluster's win only. This version has RTP 96.79%.
Base Game lobbyFour high-paying gems
Limits of any single session
Deciding how long to keep spinning for the bonus round is a decision made without knowing when it comes. Wild Clusters does not give that timing in advance, so no figure here predicts it. The result of one session is random, whatever the RTP. RTP is a long-run average across many spins, and it does not promise anything about the spins you play.
Checking which RTP version is running means opening the game rules, because that detail appears only there. Do this before you set a bet, since the RTP figures in this table each belong to a separate version. Only the rules tell you which one applies to your play.
Deciding how large a bet to place starts with knowing the ceiling. The maximum win of Wild Clusters is a cap on the top payout, not an average result. That cap is reached very rarely, so do not count on it when you set a bet.
Four questions below
From guesswork to facts about Wild Clusters
Vave Casino lists the bets, limits and return figures before you play a single spin.
What is the RTP of Wild Clusters?
Wild Clusters has four RTP versions, and the base game runs at 96.82%. RTP is the expected return over a very large number of rounds, not a promise for any single session. The gap between the lowest and highest version is small.
What bets can I place on Wild Clusters?
Bets on Wild Clusters start at A$0.60 and go up to A$100 per spin. The examples on this page use A$1, A$5 and A$10, and they are not the limits of the game. The highest bet allowed is A$100.
What is the max win on Wild Clusters?
The maximum win on Wild Clusters is x5,000 the bet. At a bet of A$10 that comes to A$50,000, and at the A$100 maximum bet it reaches A$500,000. The figure is a ceiling, and no one can know in advance when a round will reach it.
How volatile is Wild Clusters?
Volatility describes how wins are spread out, both in size and in how often they land. For Wild Clusters the top win is x5,000 the bet, but how often larger wins come cannot be known in advance. Any session can end without a big win.
When is it time to stop?
You must be 18+ to play. For support, call the National Gambling Helpline on 1800 858 858, or register with BetStop, the national self-exclusion register.
Fixed amount before spinning
Decide how much you will spend before the first spin, and treat that amount as the full cost of the session.
Quit at your chosen point
Pick your stop point before the first spin, and keep to it even after a win, because a win can tempt you to keep going.
Deposit and loss caps
Set the deposit and loss limits on your account before you start, so the most you can put in or lose is fixed in advance.
Step away when fun fades
Take a break, or self-exclude, once the game stops being fun. Do not chase losses after a bad run to win them back.
