Review of Jurassic World

The origin of this game is derived from Michael Crichton’s original story, set on Isla Nubar along the South American coast. Two decades have passed, yet the wealthy tycoons persist in meddling with nature and reviving long-extinct creatures. The massive prehistoric amusement park now has new leadership, and everything appears to be functioning flawlessly until… an genetically-altered, immensely powerful dinosaur breaks free from its enclosure, unleashing chaos upon the island.

The visuals are sharp, immersing you in the terror unfolding on the reels. The soundtrack and effects enhance the experience, making it feel like you’re living the horror. Join our talented cast as they strive to capture the raptors and secure the colossal creatures. This risky mission promises great rewards, as long as you manage to stay alive. The stage is set on the reels, providing a glimpse of the park’s headquarters where chaos is about to erupt.

The symbols on the slot reels enhance the movie theme, with the main stars from the film, Owen, Clare, Simon, and Nick, represented as high-value symbols. It is always exciting to see familiar faces in a slot game, reminding me of games like Terminator 2 that feature various famous characters. Fortunately, the lower-paying symbols do not include typical card deck symbols. Instead, dinosaurs from the movie, such as the Andominus rex, velociraptor, tyrannosaurus rex, stegosaurus, and pterodactyl, appear on the reels. There is also a scatter symbol represented by a mosquito trapped in fossilized resin, which symbolizes the extraction of dino DNA. This scatter can activate the free spins round, and if two scatters appear on the reels in a single spin, they will transform into wild symbols to help create winning combinations. The game’s WILD symbol is the game logo, which can substitute for all regular symbols (except the scatter) and often appears stacked on the reels.

The game controls are conveniently located under the reels, making game play easy to navigate. Beginning from the right and moving towards the left, players will find all the necessary controls.

• To manually spin the reels, simply click on the SPIN button.
• AUTOMATIC SPINS – Utilize this feature to specify the desired number of spins for the machine to automatically play on your behalf. It proves to be quite convenient when you need to briefly step away from the game.
• Win Display – Shows the amount you have won for that particular spin.
• BET SELECTOR – Use the arrows to increase or decrease the stake according to your bankroll. The betting range is from 0.30 to 7.20.
• BANKROLL REMAINING – Shows the remaining credit amount.

Special Features

While the core gameplay may sometimes feel mundane, the specially crafted bonus games in this slot are sure to bring joy to your face and boost your winnings. It’s worth noting that these bonus features have become the main attraction for slot games in recent times. Notable bonus features for this particular slot game include:

Indominus Rex Bonus

During the base game spins, the antagonist of the show can surprise you on the screen at any moment, showering you with rewards that can be as high as 1000 times your bet.

Free Spins Bonus Feature Round

In this game, there are three distinct bonus rounds that grant free spins. While all three rounds provide the same number of free spins, each round includes a special feature that distinguishes it from the others. When you land 3 or more scatter symbols, one of these features is randomly activated. Upon triggering the features for the 15th time, you will have the privilege to select the specific game you wish to play. The available options are as follows:

• In Gyrosphere Valley, this memorable movie scene showcases the intense moment when the Andominus almost devours Clare’s nephews. However, in this exciting slot game, players can enjoy a special bonus feature of 10 free spins with a multiplier trail. With each unsuccessful spin, the multiplier will grow, increasing the potential for big wins. Rest assured, the free spins round will only conclude with a victorious spin.
• Creation Lab – This exciting feature grants you 10 complimentary spins, along with the special bonus of ‘Rolling Reels’. If you have played games such as Thor or Thunderstruck II, you will be familiar with this feature. During each spin, any winning symbols will be eliminated and substituted with fresh ones, providing you with an additional opportunity to achieve a winning combination. The reels will continue to spin until no more winning combinations can be formed.
• Raptor’s Den offers 10 free spins with frozen scatter symbols. When a scatter symbol appears on the screen, it will remain frozen in place for the entire feature. If 3 or more scatter symbols freeze on the reels, the free spins round will be re-triggered, granting an extra 10 spins.

Payouts and Maximum Winnings

This slot has a 95.45% return to player payout and falls under the category of medium volatility. From my personal experience, the wins are quite infrequent and when they do occur, they tend to be quite small. Patience is key as the bonus features are what really get your heart racing.

Among the top victories are:

• If you hit a 5 of a kind jackpot, you will win 100 times your bet.
• The highest number of coins that can be won in the game is 102,000.
• Get an instant win of up to 1000 times your bet, plus enjoy a bonus featuring the powerful Andominus Rex.

Final Verdict

If you’re a fan of Jurassic Park, it’s worth including this game in your collection of played games, just to say you’ve completed the series. While it may not match the excitement of its predecessor, it still offers a fun experience at the slots. The numerous special features alone are enticing enough to give it a try, and if you happen to activate one of them, you could potentially earn a decent amount of winnings.
