All leading online casino software providers offer at least one dinosaur themed video pokie in its portfolio. Playtech offers Jurassic Island. It is actually a product from Ash Gaming, which is a Playtech subsidiary. Therefore it is live at Playtech online casinos like Omni Casino and Mansion Casino.
Jurassic Island does not exhibit the realism of the branded online pokie Jurassic Park. The background graphics and the symbols are like caricatures. The high paying symbols are the dinosaurs and the skull of a triceratops. The win animations are thoroughly enjoyable. The low paying symbols are playing card icons given a thematic touch as they are made from dinosaur bones.
The dinosaur with the Mohawk hair style is the wild symbol. It appears only on reels 2, 3 and 4 in the base game but expands to fill the entire reel if it will give you a winning combination. With some luck you may have three wild reels in the same spin. The comically depicted hunter is the scatter symbol. It does not award scatter payouts but triggers the bonus feature when three or more appear anywhere on the reels. When the bonus feature is triggered you get to choose from four options.
In the Multiplier Free Games feature you will be awarded 10, 15 or 30 free spins in which all payouts are trebled. During the feature two or more scatters award from 3 to 30 additional free spins. The Carnivore Free Games feature works the same way as far as the number of free spins is concerned. Here, only the high payout symbols appear on the reels. Raptor Free Games feature awards 16, 24 or 40 raptor free spins. Additional free spins from 3 to 40 can be awarded by two or more scatter symbols landing on the reels. Hot Shot Hunter is a bonus game on the second screen. Dinosaurs move quickly across the screen and you have to shoot them by getting the crosshair over them. Each shot awards a cash prize between 1 and 180 times your stake. Some dinosaurs pay more than the others, so you must have the best options in your sights. The different options differ in volatility. If you like taking risks then the Multiplier Free Games is the one for you.
Jurassic Island is a 5×3 video pokie with 25 paylines. You play with one coin per line and the coin size ranging from $0.01 to $5.00. The top payout is 1000 times the line bet.
