Jumbo Safari Free Play in Demo Mode

Jumbo Safari review

Graphics, Sounds, and Animations

We can't think of many real-life locations where you'd find elephants, crocodiles, tigers, and sloths all sharing the same jungle, but that's no problem because all of these quirky animals form part of the cast of characters when you play Jumbo Safari.

This Pragmatic Play slot is set against a simple jungle background with a hint of a waterfall in the background. And while the animals might sound a bit scary, they actually look very friendly.

The soundtrack is enough to make you feel like you're really in the jungle. Think drum beats layered with a flute tune that suddenly morphs into something electronic when the Scatters start landing.

Gameplay

Playing Jumbo Safari couldn't be easier. You've probably seen the same mechanism if you've played any Pragmatic Play slots before. The aim is to line up at least three of the same symbols on adjacent reels from left to right, starting with the leftmost reel.

Jumbo Safari has five reels and three rows, and all of the high-paying symbols to look out for are the animals. The gorilla pays the most, followed by the tiger and the elephant. You can also trigger smaller wins by landing A, K, Q, or J symbols.

Wilds, Bonuses, and Free Spins

The chameleon symbol is the Wild, and it can appear on all reels. The Wild substitutes for all paying symbols except the Scatter.

The Scatter symbol is represented by a gold coin, and it can appear on all of the reels. Land 3, 4, or 5 Scatters to bag yourself 15, 30, or 50 Free Spins, respectively. Before the round starts, you'll get to pick a chest to reveal an animal symbol, which will appear stacked during Free Spins.

Money symbols representing each animal are shown above the reels during Free Spins. If there's no five-of-a-kind win after a spin, the money values increase, and when a five-of-a-kind win does land, the animal's money value is awarded.

Bet Sizes, RTP, and Variance

Jumbo Safari comes with high volatility, so while you shouldn't expect very frequent wins, the ones you do get will tend to be a little bigger than usual. For this reason alone, we'd recommend playing this slot, as gameplay is quite exciting. The game has a theoretical Return to Player (RTP) percentage of 96.52%, which is slightly above the industry average.

The minimum stake amount here is a bit lower than we're used to seeing. You can bet from $/€/£0.05 per spin, and the maximum is set at $/€/£60 in the base game or $/€/£120 if you're using the Ante Bet feature.

Conclusion

Overall, Jumbo Safari is a pretty fun game with some cool and quirky characters, but the gameplay is relatively standard. We were impressed to see that the Free Spins round can award up to 50 free games if you get enough Scatters. One downside is that the maximum win amount is 3,000x your stake, which is not particularly generous compared with some other Pragmatic slots that we've seen recently.
