Wild Africa Slot Machine - Play Wild Africa Slot Free

Game Theme & Storyline

Welcome to Africa, the continent that launched a thousand slots with breathtaking visuals and incredible wildlife. MGA demo slots take us on a slightly different safari, with a crazy cartoon style and beautifully rendered backgrounds. It’s a different take on what is one of the most popular slots themes around.

So why are we all in love with African themed slots? We definitely have an enduring fascination with the grace and power of its incredible wildlife which is why so many slots have an animal theme. And the combination of premium graphics and gameplay experience with the allure of Africa brings us back time and again.

Graphics & Sound

This slot uses a cartoon aesthetic to present its cast of characters - the rhino, zebra, giraffe and monkey who are some of Africa’s most iconic animals. There’s a retro vibe in the character of the old duffer in the solar topee who is our jungle guide. Behind the reels we can see deep into the jungle and a majestic waterfall cascading down the sides of a foreboding mountain.

The simple percussive soundtrack manages to be on point and atmospheric without overtaking the game. We also like the way the royals are dressed up in different animal prints so that they integrate with the theme instead of detracting from it. The marriage of the visuals, sounds and themes makes this a hugely enjoyable slot.

How to Play

This is a 5 reel, 20 payline slot with an avalanche multiplier feature that removes winning symbols to create the potential for new wins while adding an additional multiplier for each new avalanche. Three or more matching symbols on a featured line earns you awards up to 125x your stake for 5 of a kind safari guide symbols.

It’s not hard to spot the cheeky little monkey that’s the wild in this slot and replaces all symbols including the volcano scatter. The volcano erupts with free spins to earn you the biggest prizes in this game. There are up to 100 autoplay spins available if you prefer to let the game play itself while you sit back and admire the view.

Bet Sizes & Maximum Win

MGA slots give you a high level of control over your bets, with 5 bet levels between 1 and 5 and credit values between 0.01 and 0.25 per spin. This gives players access to a minimum - maximum stake value of 0.20 to 100 credits per spin.

The maximum base game win is your friendly safari guide who pays 125x your bet but there are also 5x and 15x multipliers available in the base game and free spins to push the potential higher. But those big avalanche drop wins are about as accessible as the waterfall that cascades behind the reels.

Bonus Features

As suits the rather leisurely pace of this game, Wild Africa is more about sightseeing than edge of the seat bonus gameplay. But the two bonus features offer good potential if the reels fall your way.

Avalanche multipliers: After each win, winning symbols are removed from the reels and the symbols drop to create the potential for new combos. As you build cascading wins the multipliers also build, up to 5x in the base game. The meter resets after 3 consecutive wins.

Free spins: 3 volcano scatters anywhere on the reels will unlock 10 free spins. These are played at the triggering line bet and feature the same avalanche multipliers that this time reach up to 15x after 3 consecutive wins. Free spins can be retriggered by landing more scatter symbols for some big potential.

RTP & Volatility

The RTP on offer with this slot seems slightly unreal at 86.05% in comparison to other modern slots that push that figure towards 96%. However, this is only a hypothetical figure and it’s possible that MGA makes the calculation in a different way to other developers. As ever, it’s a number best treated as a guideline only.

This game has a declared volatility of average, or medium. In practice that means you’ll score both low value base game wins and high tariff bonus feature payouts but it’s surprisingly hard to string the avalanche multiplier wins together to access the high potential payouts.

Other Games You Might Like

If you enjoy African themed slots then the African Quest free slot from Microgaming could be just your cup of rooibos tea. Choose your own volatility free spins and multipliers plus 96.25% volatility and stunning graphics make this an entertaining spin.

Our Verdict

We enjoyed our jungle safari with Wild Africa, though the leisurely pace is more like Mild Africa. There’s some decent excitement when you start stringing together avalanche wins but capping the avalanches at three was quite deflating - having said which we struggled to land that many in a row.

Overall MGA have made a really good job of creating an entertaining and highly playable slot which most players will find satisfying. This is a different style of slot from MGA and one that works really well. But we’re still puzzled by that ultra low RTP from a medium volatility slot.
