African Legends Slots
African Legends is by the company Slingshot Studios. There are 243 total pay lines, and the game is played on five reels. This game pays out an average amount with an RTP of 94.92%. This is a medium variance slot machine themed around Africa and all of its natural wonders. There are a variety of epic bonus features you'll be eager to explore like a Wild Blast feature, rolling reels, free spins and even a progressive jackpot. I've never played a game by Slingshot Studios, but I saw they teamed up with one of my favorite software development companies, Microgaming. Microgaming isn't only known for delivering quality slots, but they've been in the industry a long time, so they're very experienced at what they do.
Game Basics
This game takes place in a river valley and every symbol corresponds to the game's overall theme. It's entertaining, and well designed. If you like African inspired games, I recommend trying out Savanna King and Great Rhino. Nonetheless, let's explore African Legends a little more thoroughly. The actual mechanics of this slot are simple enough that even the newest players will be able to easily learn this game. All of the controls sit on one wheel on the side of the screen. I suppose this isn't as common as the control panel being located at the bottom of the game grid, but it's not any harder to figure out. You can use the three lines above the spin button to open up a basic table of the bet amounts you have to choose from. There's also a plus and minus symbol you can use to adjust your bets via the pay line, along with the rules and settings for this game. There's a large spin button.
The minimum bet you can place on African Legends is 0.25 per spin, and the maximum you can spend is 25 coins. There are a variety of different symbols on the reels, and you need to land three to five symbols across a single pay line to claim a prize. You'll receive a multiplier that will multiply your total bet amount. The African Head pays out the most and awards a 10x multiplier, and the lion pays out a 6x multiplier. The elephant awards a 4.8 multiplier and the rhino pays out a 4x multiplier. The hippo pays out a 3.6x multiplier and the boar pays out a 3.2x multiplier. The lowest paying symbols are the clubs, diamonds, hearts and spade symbols.
Special Features
The wild symbol is the large African head. This symbol will substitute for any symbol within the base game to help form more lucrative wins. During the base game, the Wild Blast feature might activate. When this happens, five wilds are placed onto the reels. The next payout can be made when these symbols land and the reel roll will follow any wins and create another bigger prize.
The rolling reels are the most action packed special feature on this game grid. These will help you trigger prizes along with free spins and a progressive jackpot. Whenever you land a winning combination, this feature is activated. All of the winning symbols are removed from the reels and new ones fall to replace them. This is the same mechanic as a cascading feature, which is somewhat common within the slot community. This game is mobile phone friendly, too!
