Every wild in Get the CHEESE moves after a cascade and grows when it does. Hacksaw Gaming's October 2024 release pays clusters of five or more on a 6x5 grid; a Normal Jumping Wild Multiplier starts at 1x and adds 1x per jump, an Epic one starts at 10x and adds 10x, and four can share the grid. Hacksaw's demo here is free, opens without registration and runs the default RTP, 96.31%, with wins capped at 10,000x the bet.

From 1x to 8x in one base spin
The Normal wild holds a wooden sign, the Epic one a lily pad. Both replace any paying symbol and hop to a new square after each cascade. A win removes every regular symbol of its type, and a win with cheese wedges in it clears the grid of everything but FS keys and wilds.
Round 5 of our log shows the chain. It opened with four Normal wilds, the only spin of 500 to do so. The first win, €1.20, came before any wild joined in; then the wilds jumped after every cascade and paid at 2x, 3x and on up to 8x. An eleven-symbol cheese cluster, €24.00 on the paytable, met three wilds at 5x and paid €360.00. After nine drops in all, the spin stood at €593.40, 296.7x, with no bonus involved.
In multiples of the bet, only the cheese wedge has a large top tier:
| Symbol | 5 | 8 | 12-13 | 16+ |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Button, peg, bell, marble, heart | 0.2x | 1x | 4x | 20x |
| Iced biscuit, pretzel | 0.4x | 1.5x | 6x | 30x |
| Apple slice, salami | 0.6x | 2x | 8x | 100x |
| Cheese wedge | 1.2x | 4x | 16x | 500x |
Keys pay on their own too: three to six FS keys in a base spin add 5x, 10x, 25x or 100x; in the bonuses they only add spins.
What happens when two Jumping Wilds touch the same cluster?
In every server answer we logged, their values were summed rather than multiplied; the rules do not say how they combine. Four wilds at 3x on one cluster made 12x, three at 5x made 15x. The clip agrees: a 20x Epic and a 2x Normal turning a €3.00 cluster into €66.00. An Epic wild carries most of the weight.
The round that filled the Cheese Meter
Persistent wilds of either type are there from the first free spin. Cheese wedges removed from the grid fill a meter above it; a full meter moves the round up a level and adds 5 spins, and three keys inside a bonus add 5 too.
| Bonus | Keys | Spins | Wilds at start | Wild values |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Fromage Frenzy | 3 | 8 | 2 | Reset every spin |
| Take It Cheesy | 4 | 10 | 3 | Reset every spin |
| Life's So Gouda | 5, not for sale | 12 | 4, one or more Epic | Kept between spins |
On spin 52 of our filmed session three keys and a small cluster paid €10.40 and opened Fromage Frenzy with one Epic and one Normal, back at 10x and 1x on every spin. The first free spin used both: €100.00 for buttons at 10x, €66.00 at 20x plus 2x, then €79.20 at 30x plus 3x on a small cheese cluster that emptied the board. It ended at €247.20.
Spins 2 to 5 added €113.20. The sixth filled the meter while its Epic climbed to 60x and the Normal to 6x, and paid €336.00. A card then moved the game to Take It Cheesy with 5 more spins and a third wild, which brought €128.80 over seven spins. Total: €835.60, 417.8x the bet, €583.20 of it from spins 1 and 6.
Eight rounds out of 500 did most of the paying
A separate run on 23 October 2026 logged 500 paid spins at €2.00 with the buy menu left alone.
It returned 196.9% of the stakes. Round 5 and the seven natural bonuses made €1,680.60 of the €1,969.20, 85%; the remaining 492 spins returned €288.60 from €984.00, none above 18.8x. Wins came on 38.6% of spins, the median one worth 0.4x, and the worst streak was 10 losing spins.
Five bonuses were Fromage Frenzy, two Take It Cheesy. Rounds 166 and 167 triggered back to back, 60x then 135.1x, and only round 263 filled the meter. The best, 219.7x on round 328, marks the top of the chart. Treat 196.9% as luck in a small sample, not a reading of the RTP.
Two different things for the same 50x
BonusHunt FeatureSpins charge 3x a spin for five times the bonus chance. Wild Mouse FeatureSpins cost 50x a spin for a win and at least two jumping wilds each time, with FS keys blocked. Life's So Gouda is not on sale.
| Option | Price | At €2.00 | RTP | Volatility |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| BonusHunt FeatureSpins Each spin is 5 times more likely to trigger a bonus game | 3x per spin | €6.00 | 96.36% | High |
| Wild Mouse FeatureSpins A win and at least 2 Jumping Wild Multiplier symbols on each spin | 50x per spin | €100.00 | 96.29% | Very high |
| Fromage Frenzy Bonus with 2 Jumping Wild Multipliers guaranteed at the start | 50x | €100.00 | 96.28% | Medium |
| Take It Cheesy Bonus with 3 Jumping Wild Multipliers guaranteed at the start | 100x | €200.00 | 96.29% | Medium |
We paid €100.00 for Fromage Frenzy, and the trigger spin's €10.00 key award counted towards its total. Both persistent wilds were Normal this time, restarting at 1x. The spins paid €1.20, €4.00 and €6.40, then four spins paid nothing and the last €11.60 with the wilds at 3x at most. The meter never filled: €33.20, a third of the price.
Small print from GAME INFO
Replies drawn from the GAME INFO screens, the buy menu, casino listings for the RTP versions and our log.
Can a casino run Get the CHEESE below 96.31%?
Yes. Besides the demo's 96.31%, casino listings show 94.20%, 92.29% and 88.25%; buying a feature returns between 96.28% and 96.36%. The version a casino runs is printed in Game info, and some markets switch buys off.
Do wild values carry over between free spins?
Only in Life's So Gouda. In the other two bonuses the persistent wilds stay but restart each spin at 1x or 10x.
How many Jumping Wilds can be on the grid at once?
Four. Round 5 of our log started with all four and was the best spin of the 500.
Is the max win the same in every mode?
Yes, 10,000x the bet in the base game and all three bonuses. Reaching it ends the round and discards any free spins left.
What the cheese has that Chaos Crew lacks
On our Chaos Crew page the Cranky Cat wilds multiply each other on a line, two x5 cats making x25. Here they added in every win we logged, but each grows with every cascade, so the longer a chain runs, the more each wild is worth. Hacksaw scores this game 3 out of 5 for volatility, Chaos Crew 5.
Le Bandit uses the same 6x5 grid and Super Cascades, with Golden Squares where this game has jumping wilds. Our two filmed rounds started differently, an Epic in the natural pair and two Normals in the bought one, and ended at 417.8x and 16.6x. Two rounds cannot say how often each pairing turns up.
