Animal Arcade Slot Machine - Play Animal Arcade Slot Free

Introduction

Place your bets on your favorite animals in Animal Arcade by Arrow's Edge. In this slot, it is all about the multiplier feature as the highlight spins around the board. The slot has eight different animals to choose from, with their winning potential ranging from 2x to 100x the bet you place on them. You can spread your bets however you like and adjust them between spins; for example, you can load your bet on one or two animals or spread it between them all to guarantee some sort of win on every spin. The free spin and double win features provide extra chances to boost your winnings.

Theme, graphics & soundtrack 

Described by its creator as having an Asian gaming house theme, Animal Arcade is presented in a cartoon depiction of an arcade game machine against a backdrop of large-leaved plants, with elevator music playing in the background. The animals are a tiger, a lion, an elephant, an ape, a panda, a rhino, a snake and an eagle, all drawn in an art style that wouldn't look out of place in a children's cartoon. The animal tiles are arranged around the edge of the main screen area with the game's logo in the center in bright colors, embellished with a rainbow and stars. The rainbow, stars and winning amount occasionally animate between spins when the game is idle, with a coin animation playing on every win.

Animal Arcade RTP and variance 

The return to player ranges from 94.35 per cent to 94.44 per cent, with an average of 94.39 per cent, and the variance is estimated at medium to high.

 
How to play Animal Arcade

Once the game loads, take your time to familiarize yourself with the controls:

1. The menu button takes you through the game's basic rules, its paytable and its features.
2. To place your bets, select the animal(s) you want to bet on. Keep touching the animal symbol to increase your bet. The bet amounts will increase by increments of 0.50 coins up to 10 coins, then 25, 50 and 100 coins. You can select more than one animal and vary how much you want to bet on each. Your total bet amount for each spin will show at the bottom of the screen.
3. To reset all your bets to zero and start again, touch the button with the coin stacks icon. 
4. If you want to use autoplay, these settings can be accessed by touching the arrow button. Set the number of auto spins you want - they go up in increments of 5 to a maximum 50 - and touch the checkmark. The autoplay spins will start straight away, so be sure you have adjusted your bets beforehand. Be aware that there are no loss limit settings on this slot, so keep an eye on your balance and be ready to stop autoplay if you need to by touching the 'stop' button. You cannot adjust bets during autoplay.
5. You are now ready to start. Always gamble responsibly by setting a budget and stopping when the game is no longer fun.

Bet sizes & paytable wins 

The bet sizes range between 0.50 coins and 100 coins per symbol, so the bet range is from 0.50 coins (bet on one symbol) to 800 coins (100 coin bet on each of the 8 symbols.

Each of the eight symbols has two payout levels

• Tiger = 100x or 50x bet
• Elephant = 40x or 2x bet
• Lion = 30x or 2x bet
• Ape = 20x or 2x bet
• Panda = 20x or 2x bet
• Rhino = 15x or 2x bet
• Snake = 10x or 2x bet
• Eagle = 5x or 2x bet

Any highlighted tile that has 2x or 50x on it will pay this amount only. The symbol-specific higher multipliers are not paid out in this case.

Animal Arcade bonus features

Free spin

If the highlight stops on the free spin symbol, the bet amount is returned to the player. The single re-spin starts, beginning from the free spin symbol.

Double win

If the highlight lands on the double win tile, two free spins are awarded. The two spins run simultaneously, one running clockwise and the other running anticlockwise. This provides the opportunity for two wins.

Animal Arcade review: our verdict

Animal Arcade is a little different from your average slot, but it is still fun to play. You can spread your bets so that every round ends in a win, but the 2x tiles see to it that you will win much less than your bet amount and your balance will still erode. We found the double win seemed to come up fairly frequently; however, it doesn't always guarantee a win, as this depends on how the bets are placed. If you prefer a more conventional arcade-themed slot, Red Tiger's Arcade Bomb slot is worth a try. Alternatively, why not take a look at some more Arrow's Edge free play slots?
