African Elephant Review

The African Safari genre is hard to make unique without pouring your heart and soul into it, and many times developers simply stick to the most common blueprint. Pragmatic Play has plenty of similar games out there already, and African Elephant looks about as generic as it sounds. You’re once again taken to the savannah, and the grid is filled with meerkats, leopards, wildebeests, zebras, and rhinos. The elephant is also present as the wild symbol, of course.

You can shorten the time between bonus round triggers by holding down the spacebar to initiate turbo spins mode, but the feature triggers fairly often anyway. The base game comes with a Wild Shape feature which basically provides random wilds, and you get the same on every bonus round spin. The 15,000x potential is the biggest surprise here, really, as it’s 3x the regular max win we’ve become used to from this developer.

African Elephant Slot Features

The premium animal symbols pay between 5 and 30 x your stake for 5 of a kind wins, and the elephant Wild symbol steps in for pay symbols to help complete and/or improve wins. The Wild can appear on all 5 reels, but wilds do not land organically.

African Elephant Slot Gameplay

Wilds pay 2.5x, 12.5x, and 75x your stake for 3, 4, and 5 of a kind wins, respectively.

A so-called Wild Shape may appear on any given spin, and it will highlight a certain number of positions randomly. All symbols within this highlighted frame will then turn wild, and this may lead to a win (although there is no guarantee).

You need 3, 4, or 5 bonus scatters in view to trigger the Bonus Round, and this gives you 10, 15, or 20 free spins, respectively. You are guaranteed to get a Wild Shape on every free spin, but once again, the Wild Shape does not guarantee a win. Non-UK players, and anyone eligible, can purchase the feature for 100x the stake. This gives you 3 to 5 triggering scatters on the spin that follows.

You get a decent taste of the base game, before we purchase and trigger the bonus round at 0:47 into the 2:52-minute highlights video.

Review Summary

We are pretty sure we’ve seen this exact visual presentation before, or at the very least the animal symbols. Then again, it’s hard to tell since there are so many similar games out there, and a handful of them from Pragmatic Play themselves. The safari presentation is decent, but the generic vibe hanging over this release is almost unbearable. Some players may not get enough of the African savannah, who knows, but African Elephant failed to impress us at least.

You get decent symbols values, and the Wild Shape feature is somewhat innovative, but then again, not really. It comes about once in a while in the base game, mostly giving you a teaser of what’s to come in the bonus round. Getting random wilds on each free spins is not really pulse raising though, despite the prospect of winning up to a solid 15,000x the stake. The 1 in 124 spins bonus round hit rate is not bad, and neither is the 1 in 11,494,253 max win hit rate.
