Primal Spirits Review
The working title of this game was apparently ‘Totem Thunder’, but the developers must have decided to change it to Primal Spirits at the last minute. Both titles describe the subject matter at hand pretty well though, and this is a visually stylish slot grounded in Native American mysticism. The 5x3 grid is framed by a totem on either side, with a campfire burning against the starry night sky underneath.
A thunderbird sits like a roof on top, and the reels are filled with spirit animals and gems of corresponding colors. The totem on the left initiates symbol upgrade transformations, and each upgraded symbol type that’s also part of a win upgrades its own multiplier by +1 per winning symbol. The multipliers never reset in the bonus round, and this can lead to payouts up to 8,469x your stake.
The symbols are grouped into 4 different colors, and the premium symbols pay between 2 and 5 x your stake for 5 of a kind wins. Wild symbols can appear anywhere to step in for pay symbols to help complete winning combos, and pure wild wins pay up to 5x your stake for 5 on a payline. Winning symbols are removed via the Tumble mechanic, and this gives you indefinite extra wins per spin as long as you keep winning.
The Totem seen on the left keeps shifting per spin, and the top part of the totem is glowing with either a red, purple, green or blue color. This Totem Trance feature transforms low pay symbols of the corresponding color into premium symbols of the same color. On more rare occasions, the totem top can shine in a golden color. This turns all low pay symbols into their high paying counterparts.
The Totem on the right-hand side comes with multipliers that are upgraded per color, if, and only if, the symbol transformation creates a win. This adds +1 to the multiplier per symbol involved in the win of the corresponding color, and a golden totem will upgrade the multiplier of all 4 colors. The multiplier values reset between paid spins, so they only last for a tumble sequence in the base game.
The Thunder Bonus Round triggers from 3 scatters, and this gives you 10 free spins. You get +5 free spins on top of that for every extra triggering scatter above the minimum of 3. You can retrigger the feature the same way, and symbol color multipliers are carried over from the base game. The big difference is that the multipliers never reset as long as the bonus round lasts.
Finally, non-UK players, and anyone living in an eligible jurisdiction, may take advantage of the bonus buy option. This will set you back 150x your stake, and it guarantees 3+ triggering scatters on the spin that follows.

Review Summary
The visual presentation in Primal Spirits seems somewhat inspired by other games, but is a unique title. We quite enjoyed the Native American mysticism to be honest, and it’s done in a simple, cartoonish way that should have a broad appeal. The campfire with the starry night sky in the backdrop creates an enjoyable atmosphere.
The ever-changing totem color keeps the base gaming alive and interesting, as you get multiplier-boosted symbol transformation wins on a regular basis. Decent multipliers can be achieved also in the base game, but your chances of closing in on the 8,469x potential increases significantly when the multipliers never reset in the bonus round. Overall, this game is well worth checking out, not least for fans of the Native American genre.
