Maximum Potential Win

  • The game has a capped maximum potential win. For details regarding this limit, consult the Terms and Conditions.

Wild Symbol

  • The WILD symbol is represented by the word 'WILD'.
  • WILD substitutes for all symbols except the Scatter and Power Collect symbols.

Scatter Symbol

  • The Scatter symbol features the face of a tribesman.
  • Landing a Scatter on reels 1, 3, and 5 simultaneously will trigger either one of four Animal Free Games or the Leopard Bonus feature.

Power Collect Symbol

  • The Power Collect symbol appears as a circle with five coloured segments.
  • When this symbol lands on reels 2, 3, or 4, the Collect feature activates.

Collect Feature

  • Landing one or more Power Collect symbols on reels 2, 3, or 4 activates the Collect feature.
  • During this feature, the Power Collect symbol flashes a colour corresponding to one of the animal symbols and gathers all instances of that symbol from the reels.
  • After collecting, the Power Collect symbol changes into a WILD, a payout is awarded, the reel with the collected animal symbol collapses, and the related meter is filled.

Animal Free Games and Leopard Bonus

  • Trigger this segment by landing scatter symbols on reels 1, 3, and 5 simultaneously.
  • The feature awarded depends on which animal meter is filled the most at the time three scatters land. If multiple meters are equally filled, completely full, or all empty, the feature is selected at random.
    • Lion Free Games (Gold Meter): On each spin, a random animal symbol turns into a WILD.
    • Elephant Free Games (Red Meter): During 10 spins, a row of multipliers appears above the reels. Each Power Collect symbol payout is multiplied by the rightmost multiplier. Once used, a multiplier is removed, remaining multipliers shift right, and a new multiplier (2x, 3x, 5x, 10x, 15x, 20x, 25x) appears from the left. Multipliers are also removed if a Power Collect tries to collect a symbol not in view.
    • Rhino Free Games (Pink Meter): For 10 spins, all Power Collect symbols appear double-stacked, increasing the chance of triggering the Collect feature.
    • Buffalo Free Games (Blue Meter): On the first spin, 55 stacked WILD symbols are added to reel 2. On the second spin, 40 stacked WILD symbols are added to reel 3, and on the fourth spin, 65 stacked WILD symbols are added to reel 4. These WILD symbols stay in place until the feature concludes.
    • Leopard Bonus (Green Meter): Three scatter symbols appear on the reels. The left and right scatter symbols reveal a cash prize and a win multiplier, respectively. The prize is multiplied by up to 5x, then by the total bet, before being awarded.

Return to Player (RTP)

  • The RTP is displayed within the game interface.
  • This figure represents the theoretical average return, based on a simulation of 1,000,000,000 game rounds.

Disconnection Handling

  • If a player loses internet connection during a spin, the outcome will be shown upon reconnection and winnings are credited accordingly.
  • If a disconnection occurs during a bonus feature or on the triggering spin, the game will automatically resume the feature after reconnection.
  • To review the result of the previous round after logging back in, select the game history icon on the bottom toolbar.
