Serengeti Wilds Review

Serengeti refers to a particular region in east-central Africa, and more specifically to the well-known Serengeti National park. You can place bets between 25p and £250 per spin here, which is solid enough for most players. The 1,750x potential is the only drawback we see with this game, as it doesn’t quite mesh with this kind of volatility.

Still, Stakelogic partner, Hurricane Games, has composed a very solid title with Serengeti Wilds. Nothing seems superfluous here, as everything pulls together to give you those amazing lengthy winning streaks that can really go insane in the bonus round. Granted, you will not find anything brand new in this title, it’s just a really well-balanced and engaging game.

Serengeti Wilds Features

The sunset wild symbol will step in for all regular symbols, and thus help you form winning combos. It also pays the same as the highest paying lion symbol. You will benefit from Cascading Wins, which means that winning symbols are removed to make space for new symbols to drop from above. This goes on as long as you keep winning, and a progressive win multiplier increases with +1 for each cascade.

The bonus round is triggered by landing 3 free spins scatter symbols anywhere on the same spin. Each of the 4 premium animal symbols come with a meter with 10 segments, and you fill 1 segment for every animal symbol you land. Filling a meter turns the relevant animal symbol wild for the duration of the feature, and you get 2 extra spins added to your tally. The progressive win multiplier starts at 3x in the bonus round, but it resets to 3x again between spins.

The 4 premium animal symbols - the lion, rhino, elephant and hyena - are all represented with a bonus meter in the base game also. Unlike in the bonus round, you’ll need to fill the respective meters by landing winning combos with animal symbols here.

Each meter needs 100 points to be filled, and you get the following points for your wins:

• 3 of a kind gives you 4 points
• 4 of a kind gives you 8 points
• 5 of a kind gives you 12 points

Filling up a meter triggers the Enhanced Free Spins feature. You get 10 free spins here too, and now the animal meter you filled is already full, which means the symbol is already wild. The remaining animal meters can be filled up just like in the regular bonus round, and this gives you more wilds and extra spins.

Finally, you can buy the bonus round at any given time, and it will cost you 100x your stake. This option is not available in all jurisdictions, and it’s not for UK players for sure. You will get 3 guaranteed scatters on the next spin, and the bonus round plays out as if triggered organically.

The 200 Spins Serengeti Wilds Experience

We had a pretty solid base game win before the bonus round was triggered, and we really enjoyed how the excitement keeps building as more animals turn wild. We managed to turn 3 of the animal premiums wild in our test session, and you can see how it all went in the highlights video below.

Review Summary

What we really love about Serengeti Wilds is how all the elements - all the features - work together to build towards what can potentially be an amazing bonus round multi-climax. The cascading wins keep building the progressive win multiplier, and they also help you turn animal premium symbols wild. This leads to even lengthier cascades, and which again leads to more animal wilds and higher wins.

Once you have turned 2 or 3 animals wild during the bonus round, you can literally feel the momentum shift in your favor.

Suddenly they really start to make an impact when they land, and the extra spins also help keep you going. If the win multiplier didn’t reset between spins, this thing could go completely insane. However, you are still held back by a somewhat disappointing potential of only 1,750x your stake. The upside is that this potential seems very achievable.

Pros

• Cascading wins and progressive multiplier
• Bonus round where animal symbols turn wild
• Bonus buy option (not for UK players)

Cons

• High volatility and 1,750x max win potential

Great Rhino Deluxe - is powered by Pragmatic Play, and it comes with a solid potential hovering above 6,000x your stake.

You will collect the high paying Rhino symbol during the bonus round, and all the collected symbols will be released on the climactic final spin.
