PHFUN Wild Bandito: Gold Frames, Rising Free-Spin Multipliers and RTP

PHFUN Wild Bandito is a PG Soft title that sat in the Hot Games row of the phone lobby, and its two features are easy to picture with a clay alkansya.

During free spins, each win drops another coin into the jar, and the jar never gets emptied until the round ends. That jar is the multiplier. The gold frames are what keep coins dropping in. Here is how both work, and what PG Soft prints for the game.

How PHFUN Wild Bandito plays

1. Five reels and four rows make the grid. PG Soft’s page gives the frame but no way count, so open the in-game paytable, like reading the fare matrix posted inside a jeepney, to see exactly which symbol rows pay.
2. Gold Framed Symbols appear on the reels. The game data held here describes them as becoming Wilds, which helps join a win across reels.
3. Free spins carry an increasing multiplier. It rises as wins land and is not reset between spins of the same round.
4. Respins sit alongside the main features, and the game’s info panel lists exactly when they trigger.

Think of the gold frame as the “sold” sticker a palengke vendor slaps on a reserved bilao: it marks one item as different from its neighbours, and you should watch it.

Why the volatility label matters here

Some game databases label Wild Bandito high. On the studio’s page the volatility line reads Medium, and the studio is the source, so this page says Medium. The practical difference for a short session: a Medium game tends to pay small wins more often than a high one, so a ₱200 budget usually lasts longer than it would on a high-volatility title at the same stake.

The x25000 ceiling equals ₱50,000 at a ₱2 example stake. It is printed to describe the maths, not as a prize to aim for.

A Wild Bandito session plan in pesos

1. Set the limit first. Say ₱200 for the evening, an amount you can lose without touching bill money.
2. Divide by the stake. At ₱2 a spin, that is 100 spins; write the number down.
3. Set a clock limit too. PAGCOR’s advice is to time-box each session, so pick a stop time as well as a spin count.
4. Stop at whichever comes first. A climbing free-spin multiplier is not a reason to top up the balance, and neither is a near miss on the last spin of the plan.
