Jungle Boogie Slot Machine
Get down to the jungle tonight for some classic spinning action in Jungle Boogie. With 3 reels and 1 payline, this vintage style Playtech slot machine gives fans of retro gambling games the chance to try their luck in a novelty themed rainforest environment, substituting the conventional fruit machine symbols for some exotic wildlife creatures.
There's nothing else to it than that, meaning that there are no free spins, wild wins or special bonus side games – just straightforward spins with the chance to win a 4,000x line bet multiplier jackpot.
Get down in the Jungle
There must be something special about having a boogie in the jungle considering that Kool & The Gang dedicated a whole 3 minutes worth of funkalicious noise to the activity. And now, this Playtech slot machine – which has the exact same name as that song – takes players spinning into the heart of the jungle with its colourful game screen that is filled with wild and wonderful critters such as piranhas, jaguars, monkeys, parrots, baboons and the king of the jungle himself, the tiger.
When it comes to the graphics of the game, players shouldn't expect too much in the way of spectacular 3D design and mind-blowing animations. In fact, they shouldn't expect anything at all like that because Jungle Boogie is very much a slot machine from the old school genre, with simple spinning motions and two dimensional cartoon symbols. Although, having said that, the game isn't completely void of aesthetic worth, because there is a full rainbow of colours on display to emulate the vast variety of colours displayed by the exotic animals.
What's more, the reels will spin to the tune of jungle drums, transporting punters far away from their homes into the depths of the rainforest. Well, that is unless you happen to live in the depths of the rainforest!
Place your stakes
This 3-reel slot machine from Playtech software is a little bit more complicated than you might think when it comes to the prizes on offer. That is because, despite there being only 1 single payline and 3 reels to spin, the game offers a range of payout prizes that differ in size depending on how many coins are placed on the reels.
First of all, we should tell you that the bet per line options range from as little as 0.01 credits to as much as 5 credits, meaning that players can play some incredibly safe and risk-free stakes for a casual round of spins. However, with the option to place as many as 3 coins on the payline of Jungle Boogie, there is every chance for spinners to up the ante with maximum total bets of 15 credits per spin.
As you will see in the game's colourful paytable, however, players who play with 3 coins appear to get a better deal when it comes to the line bet multiplier values on offer.
However, this is actually a bit misleading, since only one coin will be multiplied whenever a winning combination is formed. So, even though the second column for players with 2 coins offers doubled line bet multipliers and the third column for players with 3 coins offers tripled line bet multipliers in relation to the first column for players with only 1 coin, the prizes that are awarded will actually be offer the same ratio of wins to total bets regardless of how many coins are played.
Jungle wins
That is except for one payout – the jackpot prize of 4,000x. Because, as you will see, this 4,000x line bet multiplier that is awarded for three tigers on the payline is actually quadruple the size of the 1,000x line bet prize that is given when the same combination appears with 1 coin in play.
So, essentially, the only benefit of playing with 3 coins in Jungle Boogie is that you will get a slightly better return when it comes to the slot machine's most lucrative line win. You can see all of the line bet prizes in relation to the various winning sequences and coin permutations in the table below:
Back to nature
It's easy to get bored of the same old 3-reel slot machines that use the same old classic symbols. However, Jungle Boogie aims to break that mould with a simple gameplay set up with a simple novelty theme which provides all of the same winning action in a wild and colourful jungle environment.
