Blazing Mammoth
Blazing Mammoth
Grab your ski jackets and bobble hats, as we are off to the Ice Age in the Blazing Mammoth slot.
Brought to us by PearFiction Studios in partnership with Games Global (Microgaming), this prehistoric adventure comes with the EpicStrike mechanic where you can scoop pays of up to 2,000x your bet by hitting woolly Mammoth icons.
The Graphics
Animated design makes up the look and feel of the game – and it is a bit similar to DreamWorks movie Ice Age (but with slightly more grumpy animals). The quality level is up there with games like the Eternal Phoenix Megaways slot from Blueprint.
The background is a snowy scene and the soundtrack is a relaxed ditty with the sounds of animals roaring and squawking in the background.
Very nice.
The Pay Table
Your reel icons are a collection of prehistoric creatures; the eponymous mammoth, a wolf, a woolly rhino, a bear, and a sabre-toothed tiger plus the single, double and triple red lucky 7s. There are more creatures in this game than you’ll see on the Idol of Fortune slot even.
The wild is the big ‘W’ and the scatter icon is represented by the symbol with FREE SPINS emblazoned on it.
Aside from the mammoth, the triple 7 is the most lucrative icon in the game. It will pay you out a handsome 37.5x your bet for 5x of them in a row on a pay line.
Game Play
The Blazing Mammoth slot comes with a5 reels, 3 rows and 20 payllines. That’s just shy of the Reggae Rhythm slot and about average I’d say.
The bet range is from £/$/€0.20 coins per spin up to 120.00 coins per spin. The maximum possible win is 2000x your bet.
It’s also a low-variance game which makes a nice change.
Blazing Mammoth Slot Bonuses
Mammoth Jackpots
The more Mammoths that land, the higher the jackpot here. Landing 3x or more Mammoth icons will award you a cash prize.
There are 7 Mammoth Jackpots and you’ll find them to the left of the reels:
– 3 Mammoth Symbols – 1x the stake;
– 4 Mammoth Symbols – 5x the stake;
– 5 Mammoth Symbols – 15x the stake;
– 6 Mammoth Symbols – 40x the stake;
– 7 Mammoth Symbols – 100x the stake;
– 8 Mammoth Symbols – 500x the stake;
– 9 Mammoth Symbols – 2,000x the stake.
These Mammoth Jackpots can be scooped in the base game and the free spins round. Simply spiffing
Free Spins
Land 3x of the scatters on reels 2, 3, and 4 and you’ll set off the Free Spins. Next,you will spin a Wheel of Fortune containing a number of Free Spins from 10 and 30, and multipliers of 2x or 3x. Wherever it lands will give the spins and the win multiplier value that you will be playing with…
You can also re-trigger this bonus by landing 3x or more of the scatter icons. If you do manage this, you’ll win the same number of spins and multiplier that you originally received from the spin of the wheel.
The Monkey Verdict
You’ll find the maths model here pretty similar to other Games Global scatter-pay style slots (think Gameburger Studios’ 9 Masks Of Fire).
But this isn’t a problem as the theme is fun and the low variance play means you can spin for longer – without burning through your entire bank balance.
I say ’bravo’ to PearFiction Studios, the Blazing Mammoth slot is a lot of fun!
