What hides in the forests of Amazon? The Amazon River and the rainforests provide home to unique species. However, there is more to it! Playtech decided to look through the dense tree crowns, and enter the curious world by creating a top-of-the-shelf Secrets of the Amazon video slot. We are going to dissect it and provide all the details you need to know about this game.
Theme
The Amazon rainforests …How cool it would be to actually go there and explore flora and fauna. The first time you see the game, you immediately get a feeling that this will be something good. As expected, the green color dominates and the background is packed with trees, bushes and flowers. The reels are also green, divided by lianas.
Wild Animals to Encounter:
The icons are designed perfectly and mundane symbols that appear in almost every other slot will not be encountered here. Instead, the following icons are used: a frog, two birds, a snake, a chameleon and three kitties: a lioness, a leopard and a black panther.
The graphics are of a high quality and even when you spin the reels, nothing gets disrupted. Occasionally, a butterfly will land on a spin button while a caterpillar will crawl over the segments under the reels. Although irrelevant to the gameplay itself, these additions are quite nice. The sounds are not the best part of the game, but they will do. You will actually have a feeling as if you are in the jungle!
Betting Options and Other Functions
The lowest bet in Secrets of the Amazon is 0.01 and it goes all the way to 500.00. That is quite a span, meaning that everyone can wager according to their own liking! This software product has 20 pay-lines in total and it consists of 3 rows and 5 reels. The jackpot is rated at 50.000!
The control buttons are located under the reels but all of them are unique. For instance, “Bet Max” and “Auto Play” are in a form of a mushroom, whereas “Spin” and “Info” are flowers. Playtech added an additional option you will not find in many games and that is “Turbo mode”. Turn it on and spin faster!
Features
Let’s start off with the usual. A wild symbol is featured and it replaces every symbol except the scatter. However, scatter is the one that brings potential of high winnings. You need at least three icons to activate Moonflower Bonus! And they can land anywhere on the reels.
What Is The Bonus Game All About?
Firstly, you move to a more magical setting in the Amazon with the waterfalls around you. The first part is choosing one out of three moonflowers that will reward you with free spins. If you unlock the bonus round with three scatters, you will get between 5 and 15 free games. Four and five scatters provide between 8 and 18 and 10 and 20 free games respectively.
Secondly, it is time to spin the wheel! However, you should know that each subsequent spin raises multiplier by +1! The maximum amount of extra round is 50.
Our take on Secrets of the Amazon
This release is really outstanding, with Playtech showing us what they can do. You will get hooked up quite easily, especially since every element of this game is as good as it gets. If we wanted to knit-pick we could find some disadvantages, but this is definitely a game you should give a chance to!
