Safari Chase Hit 'n' Roll

Safari Chase Hit 'n' Roll Review

Safari Chase Hit 'n' Roll is a follow-up to the players' favorite Safari Chase slot. The original title has captured the hearts of many gamblers, and now, it returns improved to deliver new wins.

Aside from the highlight Hit 'n' Roll feature, the slot can boast a much bigger potential than the older Safari Chase game, which has been significantly boosted. While the first part sported a tiny 5,000x max win, Safari Chase Hit 'n' Roll can offer rewards of up to 50,000x to the players. A pretty enhancement indeed. The trade-off, however, is a lower payback value, plus the game now has RTP Ranges. That means that the return percentage can be different between the casinos, and the possible values are 88%, 91%, 93%, 95%, and 96%. Thus, read the rules carefully before depositing to find a better RTP value.

Other than that, everything remained almost untouched. Safari Chase Hit 'n' Roll plays on a 5x4 grid producing 1,024 ways to play on each spin, and behind it, we can see the same background image, showcasing African landscapes with flat-top Acacia trees amid the hot savannah. We should still say that the Safari Chase Hit 'n' Roll slot looks absolutely fantastic and doesn't seem dated or anything. The soundtrack is also on spot, as it fits the gameplay perfectly and adds a final touch to the general ambiance.

As we head over to the paytable, we see familiar symbols of classic A-9 card royals and a bunch of animals. The animals make up the premium lot and include in ascending order zebras, giraffes, crocodiles, elephants, and lions. You need to land at least 3 matching low symbols adjacently on the reels starting from the leftmost to score a payout, while the higher-value symbols pay from two-of-a-kind and more. Five-of-a-kind low symbol wins are worth from 0.5x to 1x the stake, and premiums pay from 2x to 4x your bet. The shield and spears symbol is Wild - it can appear anywhere on the reels to substitute for any other regular symbols in a winning combination.

Safari Chase Hit 'n' Roll Slot Features

Landing 3 or more Scatter symbols anywhere in view during the base game triggers the Hit 'n' Roll feature and awards a cash prize of 1x, 5x, or 10x the stake for 3, 4, or 5 bonus symbols respectively. Then, the Bonus Wheel appears, where one of the following prizes can be awarded:

• Free Spins
• Cashpot
• Instant Cash Prize

Before we dive in, keep in mind that the more base game spins are played, the bonus meters are upgraded, increasing the possible Bonus Wheel rewards. The Free Spins counter starts on 6, and the Cashpot meter begins at 1x, and those can rise with no limits. However, once you trigger the feature, the respective meter is reset back to the initial value.

If the Hit 'n' Roll wheel lands on the Cashpot prize, you win the corresponding value as has accumulated on the meter. The same applies to the Instant Cash Prize reward, which awards the displayed cash value. However, these rewards are fixed and don't increase during the base game unlike free games or cash jackpots.

There are four types of Free Spins, each having a different total Multiplier that applies to every win you score during the bonus. You can win either regular free spins with no Multiplier, or a round of 2x, 3x, or 5x multiplier free games, which can boost the rewards significantly. During the bonus game, new Water Drop symbols come into play, which are bonus symbols and contribute to the Accumulation Meter whenever they land. Collecting a certain amount of bonus symbols transforms animal symbols into the top high-paying symbol for the remainder of the feature, as well as awards +2 additional spins.

• 4 Water Drop symbols - turns elephants into lions.
• 8 Water Drop symbols - turns crocodiles into lions.
• 13 Water Drop symbols - turns giraffes into lions.
• 18 Water Drop symbols - turns zebras into lions.

You can get even more free spins after the process is finished, as each 5 additional bonus symbols bring you +2 extra spins.

Last but not least is the Hyper Bonus feature that allows you to trigger the bonus immediately. For the cost of 42x your total stake, you can trigger the bonus wheel where only free spins and cash prizes are available and win up to 25 Free Spins with a random multiplier value. Meanwhile, for the cost of 91.2x the stake, you can trigger the bonus wheel consisting of only cash prizes and cashpot segments, offering prizes up to 50,000x you bet.

Review Summary

In conclusion, Safari Chase Hit 'n' Roll is a wonderful slot with a lot for players to offer. The Hit 'n' Roll feature really takes the Safari Chase gameplay to the next level, but the main reason why players might feel drawn to spin the reels on it is the bumped-up potential, which is now 10 times bigger than the original. All up, if you're a fan of the original Safari Chase slot, consider switching to the new part and hunt for much bigger rewards.
