Play the new Tarzan Slot from Microgaming
The Tarzan slot is a brand new 40 payline game released on the 1st of December 2016 and has already been added to 32Red Casino in their mobile, desktop and download casinos.
Based on the classic Edgar Rice Burroughs’ novel, Tarzan is now portrayed in a fully animated cartoon style in this online slot, Tarzan will celebrate your wins, and climb around the screen and cheer as you enter the bonus rounds.
For savvy casino players, you will instantly recognise that most of the mechanics and bonus features in this slot are very similar in style to the Bridesmaids slot, given the 5×4 reel layout, stacked wilds and stacked high paying symbols on the reels.
Whilst this may be the case the bonus rounds on Tarzan have changed slightly and certainly the overall theme and design of this slot may appeal to many more players than Bridesmaids did.
The main bonus features are triggered by landing 3 or more of the special Bonus scatter symbols on the reels, which then triggers a special bonus wheel feature and from here you will earn one of several different bonus rounds that include a picking round, free spins and cash rewards.
The promotional video below showcases all of the different bonus rounds on offer whilst playing the Tarzan slot.
Tarzan Slot- Bonus Rounds
In our playtests we managed to trigger bonus rounds on the Tarzan Slot on a fairly regular basis, this then leads to a bonus wheel feature which you must spin and contains 4 different bonuses and of course some are definitely more rewarding than others.
If you manage to trigger this bonus wheel with more than 3 scatters the cash rewards and jackpot rewards increase in value on the wheel.
- Jackpot – of up to 1000x Stake Reward.
- Free Spins – 12 Free Spins with Rolling Reels and Growing Wilds.
- Pick-a-Potamus – Picking bonus round with cash rewards.
- Cash Rewards – Multiplied by stake size.
Tarzan Slot Free Spins
If you manage to land on the Free Spins section on the Bonus Wheel feature you are given 12 free spins with Rolling Reels and Growing Wilds.
During the free spins bonus, any wins that are formed on the reels are paid out, these winning symbols then explode and new symbols will drop into place on the reels, this process of “Rolling Reels” will continue until no new wins are created.
Further to this feature after every free spin the stacked wilds on the reels during the bonus round will grow in size, this means by the end of the bonus round you have some very large stacked wilds on the reels, combined with the Rolling Reels effect this can lead to several successive wins as more of the wild symbols drop into place.
Pick-a-Potamus Bonus Round
The Pick-a-Potamus bonus is a simple “picking bonus round” with each Hippo rewarding a cash reward and occasionally some of these will be very large in relation to stake size, when you uncover a Hippo that goes “Pop” the bonus rounds ends.
Overall Opinions on Tarzan Slot
We have mixed feelings about Tarzan, whilst visually the slot looks great with some decent animations and novel ideas for the bonus rounds, it’s hard to forget the fact that this slot is very heavily based on the Bridesmaids slot in terms of slot mechanics, so if you have already played that game you are probably going to find playing Tarzan a somewhat underwhelming experience which for such a massive branded game shouldn’t be the case!
For a fresh player you will find a fairly solid 40 payline slot, definitely in the medium variance category, and capable of some decent wins in all of the main bonus rounds, the main frustration is going to come from triggering a bonus and simply receiving the Cash Reward option, but given that the bonus rounds seemed to trigger fairly often this isn’t too impactful overall.
