Safari Gold Megaways slot review (Blueprint Gaming)

Safari Gold Megaways is a beautiful Blueprint Gaming slot with a striking and original twist

Safari Gold is a beautifully crafted jungle slot, and Megaways enthusiasts who also love wildlife are not short of anything here.

Blueprint Gaming is currently the premier supplier of Megaways slots, and this slot is simply stunning.

It’s played in the jungle where, of course, the lion is the king and by far the most lucrative symbol.

What makes this slot even more attractive is the huge winning potential you can get here.

Hang on, my friend.

Software: Blueprint Gaming

Paylines: Up to 117,649 Megaways

RTP and variance: 96.50%- 97%, High variance

Maximum win: 50,000 x the total bet or $€250K (whichever comes first)

Pasadena Pinot Fest Casinos verdict: Scorching!

---

With Safari Gold, you can win up to 50,000x the bet.

However, I need to tell you that this applies as long as the maximum payout of $€250,000 is not reached.

In short, if you bet a tenner (the maximum bet) and you win the maximum prize of 50,000x the bet, you won’t get paid out 500K, but 250K.

If you bet a fiver (or less), then you will be paid out entirely if you land the prize of 50,000x your bet.

Let me tell you more about it below, my friend!

Safari Gold Megaways slot – Gameplay and Features

The game has a jungle theme, and the lions, buffaloes, panthers and elephants are the highest paying symbols.

All the usual characteristics of a Megaways slot are in place:

• You have six reels of symbols, and above that, you have an extra row of 4 symbols.
• You have a maximum of 117,649 Megaways.
• You have the Avalanche (Tumbling of Cascading) mechanism, so you get a free re-spin after every winning combo.

As with most Blueprint Gaming Megaways slots, you also have mystery symbols, which can change into any symbol except for scatters. These help you to make winning combos.

Get the free spins bonus through the main game or via the Buy a bonus feature

If you play the main game, you get access to the free spins if you have spin four or more scatters (diamonds).  4 scatters yield 15 free spins, 5 scatters yield 20, 6 scatters yield 25, and 7 scatters yield an impressive 30 free spins.

If you don’t feel like going through the main game, you can buy the “free” spins straight away thanks to the Buy a bonus feature (“Bonus Buy”).

It’s not for free, though. You have to pay the hefty amount of 100x the original wager.

By the way, my friend, you can also buy the Megaways Wheel for 20x the original bet, but that’s just several spins with a guaranteed minimum number of Megaways that you buy. Don’t confuse these with the real free spins.

Back to the Bonus Buy.

Once you have purchased the bonus (for 100x the original wager), you can start spinning a wheel, where you will find out:

• The number of free spins you get AND
• Your starting multiplier

Hopefully, the wheel is in a good mood and will it help you to get lots of free spins AND a high starting multiplier.

The free spins: multipliers that will increase after each winning combination

Once you get to the free spins, your winnings can skyrocket.

After each winning combination, your multiplier increases by +1.

Now you need to hope for many winning combos, especially at the beginning of your free spins session. That helps you to get a high multiplier.

If you have a high multiplier and you manage to spin some sweet combos in the end (don’t forget that you have up to 117,649 Megaways), then believe me, it can be very, very lucrative.

Payout percentage (RTP)

The payout percentage is 96.50% in the main game, and that is better than average. If you choose the Buy a bonus feature, the RTP is a stunning 97%.

Safari Gold Megaways slot – the variance (volatility) is medium to high

According to Blueprint Gaming, this online slot has a medium to high variance.

In simple words: the top prices will be between 500x and 1,000x the bet.

So yes, you can undoubtedly land some very nice prizes, but maybe not the brutal wins of say 5,000x the bet. Unless you spin a billion of times…

Pros and cons

Advantages:

• Who doesn’t like going to the zoo or on safari? You’ll enjoy playing this video slot!
• Animations are excellent
• It is possible to win whopping prizes here
• Thanks to the Bonus Buy option, you can do business (with the free spins) straight away if you want to.
• Excellent payout rates of 96.5% in the main game and 97% when you go for the Bonus Buy.

Disadvantages:

• You’re going to lose money if you don’t win that big prize soon.
• For high rollers, a maximum bet of a tenner is a bit limited.

So, who will like this slot? And who won’t?

Safari Gold Megaways is a beautiful online slot, with the ability to grab some spectacular prizes.

If you are a real thrill-seeker, that is not afraid to take some risk; this online slot might suit you perfectly!

The slot is not overly complicated and is an ideal starting point for new Megaways slots players that want to get to grips with the Megaways concept.
