Jurassic Island Pokie Review
Jurassic Island is s special edition of a hunting trip, which will take you on a dinosaur safari in a 5-reel and 25-payline pokie game by Playtech.
We wonder what Steven Spielberg would have to say to this exciting title filled with a Bonus Hunting game, All High Free Spins, Multiplier Spins, Expanding Wilds and symbol transfers.
Join our brave hunter on an epic trip to the Jurassic Period in a cleverly-designed theme and reels carved in stone, filled with well-suited symbols that include all kinds of different, long extinct animals. It is a perfect game for adventure lovers and animal persons who could use this hunting trip as an exploring mission of sort.
Developer
Playtech has been quite busy lately with a number of titles that have hit the light of the day almost simultaneously. This Isle of Man-based gaming company has been founded in 1999 and has since then grown to become one of the world’s largest gambling software and services supplier offering turnkey solutions to the industry’s leading operators.
Playtech’s steady progress allowed them to form partnership with some of the highly recognisable brands in the market such as William Hill, Ladbrokes or Bet365, while the company has also teamed up big names such as Marvel or DC Comics to develop licensed and registered, original content games such as the two latest instalments of the Batman series.
How to Play it
Five reels of this dinosaur theme include fitting symbols on the reels such as playing card symbols as the lower value symbols made up of bones and five different dinosaurs, which are of course the high valued icons.
The game houses a Wild symbol which is a bluish-haired T-Rex, appearing only on middle reels. Wild symbol can be expanded to cover entire reel once it is a part of a winning combination, which is a nice little detail which gives higher value to your spins and increases your chance of winning additional combinations in a single spin.
A Victorian explorer, clearly stranded and out of his comfort zone for a hunting trip of a lifetime is the game’s Scatter, responsible for the initiation of Jurassic Island’s bonus features.

Special Features
Landing three or more Scatter Hunters anywhere on the reels will trigger the offer of no less than 4 different bonus features. You will be able to choose one of those features which will be powered up if you land one of two more scatters on the reels.
Multiplier Free Games will give you 10, 15 or 30 free rounds, depending on the number of Scatters on your reels. Additional Scatters during the multiplier free games will grant you 3, 10, 15 or 30 additional multiplier free games in this highly volatile bonus round which will triple all of your wins.
Carnivore Free Games also boasts a selection of 10, 15 or 30 free spins, but with this feature your lower value bone symbols will be replaced with high-value dinosaurs, which increases your winning potential in this medium variance mode.
Raptor Free Games Feature will provide you with 16, 25 or 40 free spins for 3, 4 and/or 5 Scatters, respectively. This medium variance bonus will add stacked expanding Wilds to your reels, while additional Scatters will give you extra spins with 80 free spins up for grabs during this feature.
Finally we have the Hot Shot Hunter Bonus feature during which you will be urged to hover across the screen to move the target to line up a dinosaur. Three different dinosaurs are at your disposal with each one of them housing a different cash prize which can go from 50x, multiplier across 120x up to incredible 180x the stake.
Maximum Payout
With the minimum stake of $0.01 per spin, you need to invest at least $0.25 to get in which is quite an affordable amount for a wide range of players. Total bet worth $125 makes this game a tad too expensive for those who like to keep it on the maximum, but the good news is that everybody will be able to find their suitable stake level.
Big green dinosaur is the base game’s gem worth 1,000 coins for five in a row, but bonus round and four kinds of Free Spins are where you will hope to additionally boost your winnings with up to 180x multiplier available during the Bonus Hunting Game.
Summary
Pace of the game is well adjusted to the theme itself. One would expect that a hunting expedition on dinosaurs will be a dynamic adventure and it turns out that Jurassic Island is exactly one such a game. Visual appeal of the game is quite skilfully crafted, while the rhythmical soundtrack only adds up to the stride of the game.
Still, it is the four-mode bonus round that makes this pre-historic hunting game truly exciting and enticing with up to 180x multiplier available. Playtech has made their game available through all devices and platforms which make it a great choice for on the go.
