Compiles the slot reports in this catalogue and reviews the casinos where you run into them. Only publishes figures that can be verified at the provider — estimates stay out.

Who Joris Bakhuis is

Joris writes two kinds of page on Wolf Slots: the reports on the slots in the catalogue and the reviews of the casinos where you run into them. Both start in the same place — at the source. RTP, volatility and maximum win come from the studio's own published figures and bonus terms come off the casino's own page.

With casinos, taking bonus terms apart is his speciality: wagering requirement, maximum stake with bonus money, validity window and which games contribute. What the terms do not say goes into the text as well — a missing wagering figure is as much of a finding as a big bonus percentage.

A verdict is not a formula but a position of the editorial team, and it is argued in the text. The commercial button on this site points at a partner casino rather than at the brand under review, so a weak brand can simply get a weak score.

How he works

Four rules Joris does not bend.

No figure without a source

RTP, volatility and maximum win come from what the studio itself publishes; if a provider does not publish a number, the field stays empty instead of estimated. Where we have captured our own screens of a game, they sit with the report.

Read the terms to the end

A bonus is judged on wagering requirement, maximum stake and validity window — not on the size of the percentage on the banner.

Advertising does not buy a verdict

The paid button leads to a partner casino, not to the brand being reviewed. So the tone of a review never has to be tuned to an advertiser.

No withdrawals we did not make

We do not claim deposits or withdrawals we never made. Anything about payments comes from a source, and the source is named.

Where the numbers come from

The core numbers on a slot page — RTP, volatility, maximum win and mechanics — come from what the studio or the provider publishes. If a studio does not publish one of those values, the page says «not published» instead of showing an estimate. Where we have captured our own screens of a game, those screens sit with the report.

Licence number, ownership and payment methods of a casino appear as the casino itself publishes them, with the place they were found. What a casino does not publish is named as missing; figures that cannot be checked anywhere are left out rather than estimated.
