A mysterious jungle setting forms the backdrop to Jaguar Princess, a 6 reel, 50 payline video slot from High5 Games. This beautifully designed, big cat themed slot comes with super stacked reels as well as a bonus round that offers up to 16 free spins. Play from between 50p and £50 per spin.
The first thing you’ll notice about Jaguar Princess is the slightly unusual game engine – there are 6 reels instead of the usual 5 to go with the four rows. Before each spin, a random symbol will be the nominated super stack symbol. When it hits, it will appear as stacked and can fill 1 or multiple reels.
The imagery is high class – look out for the trio of big cats as well as assorted gold jewellery and playing card symbols A, K and Q. The princess is the biggest payer of the standard symbols, offering 200 coins for a six symbol combo. The wild substitutes for everything apart from the scatter and pays out 500x for a six symbol payline.
Remember that these symbols can appear as stacked and the payout can far exceed what at first glance seems a relatively miserly payout structure. The imagery is particularly striking when one of the big cats is the nominated super stack, especially given the 6 reels.
The Free Spins feature is triggered by the cat’s claw symbol – it only appears on reels 2, 3, 4 and 5 and activates the feature when more than 12 are on the screen (remember, they can appear stacked). Between 12 and 16 free spins will be awarded depending on the number of scatters that hit (between 12 and 16). The stacked symbols can appear during the feature which gives some excellent chances to secure a decent pay day.
Despite being a land based favourite, Jaguar Princess still looks excellent. It may not quite have the spectacular features of some more modern day slots but remains a steady overall performer. The free spins round can deliver some impressive payouts, especially if you manage to get lucky with the stacked symbols.
These big cats may help you hunt down a bumper haul of coins. If you like feline-inspired slots, IGT’s Prowling Panther is very good but if you’re looking for a 6 reel game, there’s no better game than WMS Gaming’s Viking Vanguard which is highly volatile.
