A Look at The Ultimate 5
This game takes on a popular animal theme, though visually it doesn't break much new ground. However, some tweaks to familiar features might appeal to certain players.
The Hold & Spin Super Boost round is the key attraction, focusing on linking adjacent money symbols to boost their values. Fully upgrading all 15 symbols leads to 500x Jackpot symbols, but the max win is capped at 5,000x your stake. The standard bonus round removes royal symbols randomly, potentially awarding up to 2,000x from a single free spin.
Gameplay Features
The 5 animal symbols award between 4 to 20 x your stake for 5 on a payline, with 100x your stake awarded if all 5 appear in any order on the same payline. The sunset Wild substitutes for standard symbols, but doesn't count toward the 100x all-animal win. The wild symbol pays the same as the highest-value animal symbol.
The Bonus Round triggers with 3, 4 or 5 Diamond scatters, awarding 5, 25 or 50 x your stake before granting 8, 10 or 12 free spins. A symbol removal feature can remove up to all 5 low-paying symbols. Each upgrade awards a wild, and landing 2, 3, 4 or 5 small diamond overlay symbols awards 2, 4, 6 or 8 extra spins.
The Hold & Spin Super Boost feature starts when a Money Sun symbol lands on reels 2, 3 and 4, locking the triggering symbols on a cleared grid. Money Symbols have random values between 1-8x and 10x your stake, plus Mini, Minor, Major, Maxi or Mega jackpot prizes worth 25x, 50x, 75x, 100x or 500x your stake.
The Hold & Spin starts with 3 respins, resetting with each new symbol locked in place. Adjacent symbols link, and each addition increases the value of symbols in the group. Filling the grid boosts all symbols to the Mega Jackpot level, but the win is capped at the 5,000x max win.

Final Thoughts
Small changes to established features can be impactful, as seen in this game. The animal theme is standard, but the symbol removal bonus isn't the primary draw.
While removing all low-paying symbols can lead to decent payouts, especially from the 100x all-animal wins, don't expect it often. Grouping sticky symbols in the Hold & Spin feature is more engaging due to the potential for 500x Jackpot symbols. However, the hard win cap limits payouts to 5,000x your stake.
| Pros | Cons |
|---|---|
| All 5 animal symbols pay 100x in all orders | Max win should have been 7,500x |
| Free Spins with random low-pay symbol removal | |
| Hold & Spin with linking symbols value upgrade | |
| Win up to 5,000x your stake |
