The Jungle II - Review, Demo Play, Payout, Free Spins & Bonuses

Introduction

The Jungle II is an online video slot made by Italian developers Magic Dreams. Despite sounding like a sequel, the original version of the game has long since disappeared from casinos, although The Jungle II is among a host of new animal and jungle themed games this maker has produced recently. Check out these Magic Dreams slots and Big 5 Jungle Jackpot slot now. Or why not try these nature themed free play slots.

The safari theme features throughout the 5x3 style game's graphics and sound effects as players match the symbols in specific orders to win payouts, much as you might expect. 11 regular symbols plus 2 scatter symbols, one of which triggers a free spin bonus, make up the standard gameplay.

Graphics and soundtrack

The Jungle II's themed symbols to match make the reels fun to watch as you play. Flash animations across the reels help to keep gameplay interesting as players match the symbols, along with bursts of sound effects and music. The graphics are colourful and detailed, although the animations aren't as smooth as we have seen from other rival slots which can sometimes leave gameplay feeling a little clunky.

Return to player in The Jungle II

At 96.02% The Jungle II has a good RTP, which can be a factor for more discerning players. There's still lots on offer here for players, however, and the game's max possible payout of x250,000 initial stake is sure to keep plenty of them spinning. It is worth noting, however, that the highest value symbol, the explorer, does not feature on the reels for free bonus spins.

How to play

It's simple to get started playing The Jungle II.

1) Once the game loads, click the paytable button at the bottom left of the screen. This will show you the symbols to match in the game, along with their associated payout values in relation to your bet.

2) Click the next button to view the game rules. It's always worth taking a second to both read the rules and understand the paytable before playing so you have a more enjoyable game.

3) The next two screens in this menu explain the bonus free games feature as well as displaying the possible winning line combinations.

4) Click exit on the bottom left of the screen to return to the main gameplay screen. A small pair of icons at the top right can be used to toggle sound effects on and off as well as bring up the detailed help files for the game.

5) The menu along the bottom of the main game screen can be used to set your wager and play line amounts between a minimum of 0.01 across 1 line and a maximum of 125.00 across 25 lines.

6) The autoplay function on the bottom right of the screen allows players who are comfortable to play between 10 and 50 games consecutively.

7) You're now ready to hit the green spin button and start playing. Please remember to set an appropriate budget for your session and play responsibly.

Bet sizes and paytable wins

The Jungle II allows players to control how many lines they play across, meaning the minimum bet is 0.01 on 1 line, to a maximum of 125.00 across 5 lines, usually. This is governed by local currency and gaming laws in your region though, so be sure to check before playing. The paytable for matching 5 symbols in the game breaks down as follows:

5x Explorer - x10,000 wager
5x Tiger/Jeep - x750 wager
5x Dusk/Parrot - x500 wager
5x Binoculars/Canteen - x250 wager
5x A/K letter symbols - x150 wager
5x Q/J letter symbols - x100 wager
5x scatter elephant symbols - x100 wager

Match the woman symbol on reels two, three and four to trigger the free games bonus, where up to 100 free games can be won depending on what the player spins on the wheel. During these free games, paylines can be matched both left to right and right to left, which increases your chances. Maximum payout in The Jungle II is x250,000 your initial stake, which is sure to keep players coming back. They'll need to have a steel nerve to ride out the volatility of the game though, which can be punishing as with any slot!

Free Games Bonus

The main extra feature of The Jungle II is the free games bonus which activates when players match the woman symbol in the correct positions on reels two, three and four. This brings up a roulette style wheel which players spin to win a number of free games, which will be played at the same stake and line amount as the original triggering spin. Matching the woman symbols in the correct positions is easier said than done, however, but it's definitely satisfying when you do finally trigger this bonus feature. Perhaps the game is a little lacking by comparison with other competitors in this area though, which often feature several different bonus modes to keep gameplay more entertaining.
