Wild Bard by Peter & Sons: headline RTP 96.27%, Medium volatility, max win x280 640.
An RTP of 96.27% means a house edge of 3.73% — the expected cost is 3.73 units per 100 staked over the long run, whatever a single session does.
Wild Bard sits at medium volatility — a middle profile where wins are neither rare nor frequent enough to dominate a session.
The advertised ceiling is x280 640. Max win figures describe the tail of the distribution, not a realistic target: on most games with a ceiling this high the probability per spin is below one in a million.
Against our catalogue the number is above the median of 96.13%, higher than 63% of the games whose RTP we verified. That comparison matters more than the raw figure, because "96%" only sounds generous next to nothing.
Hit ratio is 21.3%, meaning roughly 21 spins in 100 return something — most of them less than the stake. A hit is not a win.
Features: In-game Freespins.
Stakes run from 0.8 to 80 per spin on a 3 layout with fixed betways.

Yes. Wild Bard has a free demo with the same mathematics as the real-money version — the only thing that changes is that the balance is not yours. A demo cannot tell you the RTP build a particular casino serves.
Wild Bard is a Peter & Sons game, so the outcome is produced by the studio's certified RNG rather than by the casino, and it is not provably fair in the cryptographic sense — you cannot recompute a spin from a seed. What the casino does control is which RTP build it serves. That is the real variable, and it is measurable.
