'open out' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

'wild fun as you break some rules' is the wordplay.
'wild' indicates an anagram.
'as' becomes 'r' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'you' becomes 'u' (commonly used in online communication).
'break' indicates putting letters inside (inserted letters break the word apart).
'some' says to take the centre.
The central letter of 'rules' is 'l'.
'fun' is an anagram of 'unf'.
'unf'+'r'='unfr'
'unfr' placed around 'u' is 'unfur'.
'unfur'+'l'='UNFURL'

'with' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?
