Jungle Books is based on the famous and almost identically titled book by Rudyard Kipling. It’s brought to you by software provider Yggdrasil, who are particularly skilled in presenting exquisitely looking slot games, so Jungle Books boasts exceptionally high quality graphics and a really great design. Obviously, the game takes place in the middle of the jungle, where there are also some ancient man-made structures. But in addition to the very nice 3D visuals, the lively soundtrack completes the whole experience and adds a fun vibe to the game. Oh, and notice the characters on the side of the reels who will be there to partake in gameplay, as well. The first one to greet you will be Mowgli.
An unusual thing about Jungle Books is the layout. It features 5 reels, whereas the number of rows on the reels can vary. At different times, certain reels will have 3 rows and others will have 4. This also makes for an unusual number of paylines – 58. During gameplay there will be the possibility to expand that number to 68, depending on the realm you’re in. For the moment, the important thing to know is that the betting range is a very liberal one. The minimum bet will only set you back some 10p per single spin and the maximum amount you will be able to wager here per spin is £250.
Special Features
There are two main features around which gameplay revolves in Jungle Books. One of them has to do with the different realms, which we will explain below, and the other is the Synced Reels Feature. This one is active throughout your game, regardless of the realm you’re currently in. For example, in the Bear, Tiger and Mowgli realms, reels 1 and 2, as well as 4 and 5 are synced. In the Snakes realm, those will be the middle three reels, and it will be reels 1 and 5 for the Panther’s realm.
Realms
Now that we’ve named the different realms, it’s time to elaborate on them. Each one comes with a set of extras for you to benefit from:
- The boy’s realm will give you a Wild symbol that can create up to 2 additional Wild positions.
- In the Tiger’s realm, any win can trigger a respin, and for its duration, the symbols forming the winning combination as well as any Wilds will remain in place.
- Next is the Bear’s realm, which will see one random symbol appear stacked on the reels. In addition to that, if you land a honeycomb symbol anywhere on reel 3, this will trigger a pick me game. As a result of it, you will have the chance to win anywhere between 50 and 50,000 coins.
- Then there’s also the Snake realm, which will allow you to form winning combinations in both directions. And better yet, you also get to benefit from a 3x multiplier on all wins.
- Last but not least is the Panther’s realm, which gives you an extra Wild in the form of golden fruit. And to top it off, you can have a win multiplier ranging from 2x to 5x.
Additionally, guest characters can appear in the realms and then they can enforce some of their own features.
Wild
Wilds in this game will act in the traditional fashion, stepping in to replace any regular symbols in order to complete winning lines for you and boost your winnings.
