Safari themed slots remain a popular genre with players as they are instantly transported to the Serengeti or Masia Mara. Blueprint have performed a sound job with regards to the graphics on Safari Gold Megaways™, with the reels being cast upon the backdrop of a baron landscape somewhere deep in Africa.
Upon inspecting the payable we see that the lower value symbols on the game are made up of the royal cards 9 through to the ace, with pays ranging from 0.1x, up to 1.75x when wins are formed through them. The premium paying symbols comprise of the elephant, cheetah, water buffalo and lion, where a 6 of a kind win will pay 2x, 2x, 7.5x and 50x respectively.
The minimum bet to play is just €0.20 a spin, with high rollers having the option to play up to €10. We always like to look at the bet range from €2 down to the minimum stake, as this is where most players will be choosing to play at. Safari Gold Megaways™ has 6 options within this range, which falls in line with the average, and what we would expect to see.
As we have previously seen on a number of Blueprints Megaways™ slot titles such as Irish Riches Megaways™, the use of the cascading reels feature has once again been used to good effect on Safari Gold Megaways™.
Every time you successfully hit a winning combination, the symbols that make up that win will be removed from the reels and new symbols will cascade down from above, or roll in on the upper reel. This popular reel feature can produce some epic base game hits, especially if you are lucky enough for the full Megaways™ set up of 117,649 ways to win roll in.
Although other software developers have now chosen to add a mystery symbol to their Megaways™ Slots, Blueprint were the first to do it in this niche of online games back with their first release Diamond Mine Megaways™. They have once again decided to add it to Safari Gold, and this is one feature that players tend to love the most, as they know it holds big win potential.
On any given spin of the reels a random amount of mystery symbols can land on the reels, once the game reels have stopped for that spin the mystery symbols will all change to reveal the same random symbol from the payable. If you have a large amount of Megaways™ you don't even have to hit a premium paying symbol for this to reward you with a decent return on your stake.
To trigger the free spin bonus round on Safari Gold Megaways™ you will need to land a minimum of 4 scatter symbols. Depending on how many scatter symbols you trigger the bonus with will determine how many possible spins you can win to start the free spins with, we have detailed the possibilities below.
Once your scatters have landed the Safari Gold wheel will begin to spin, you will notice that there are free spin amounts on the inside of the wheel, and multiplier amounts on the outside of the reel. After a short spin the wheel will stop, and your spin and multiplier amount will have been determined for bonus.
The dream scenario would be a 7 scatter trigger, and to hit the maximum of 30 free spins, with the maximum starting multiplier of x10. If this were ever to happen then you would have to be extremely unlucky to not hit a massive multiple of your stake.
The free spins themselves have a very familiar feel to them, and you could be playing any number of Megaways™ Slots, just with a different theme. The main aim in the bonus is to hit as many successful cascades as possible, as each time you achieve this your bonus multiplier will increase by x1 in value. Players should note that there are no limits as to what the multiplier can reach, so in essence this is an unlimited multiplier.
Starting the bonus with a higher multiplier is going to give you a huge head start, and the chance to build it to the mid or high 20s if your lucky. Players should also keep an eye out for the mystery symbol during the free spins, landing a large amount of these with a high multiplier can pay astronomical amounts, as previously witnessed on Blueprints Temple of Treasures Megaways™.
The feature can be re-triggered and this is achieved by 3 or 4 of the scatter symbols rolling in on the upper reel. Three scatters will award you an additional 5 free spins, whilst four will award an extra 10.
There are two options available to you when it comes to buying a bonus on Safari Gold Megaways™, and they both involve a spin on the wheel. For 20x your stake you can spin the wheel and be awarded an amount of free spins and a minimum amount of Megaways™ that will land for each of those spins. There is no bonus multiplier attached to this option, but the feature can be triggered through it.
The second option is to buy the feature outright and this will cost you 100x your stake. From here you will go straight to the wheel and be awarded your free spin and multiplier amount.
It should be noted that the bonus buy may be restricted on Safari Gold Megaways™ if you are playing from a region where these slots have fallen under new legislation.
Players who are serious Megaways™ fans will know that this slot is just a straight clone of Leo Vegas Megaways™. You can't really blame Blueprint for cloning that particular slot as it's exclusive to Leo Vegas casino, and is not a slot that's going to be playable anywhere other than there.
With the combination of an unlimited win multiplier and mystery symbols, this slot is certainly going to be capable of paying big. It may not feature anything really new in the Megaways™ series, but for those who havent played the Leo Vegas version, it could well be worth a few spins.
