The MegaJackpots Elephant King slot is played on 5 reels, 3 rows and 40 fixed paylines. Land 3, 4 or 5 matching symbols from left to right on any of the paylines (and beginning from reel 1) to get a winning combination.

Playable from 75p to £750 per spin, there are plus and minus buttons either side of the Total Bet section below the reels. Payouts in the Paytable appear in coins so need to be divided by 75 to get the monetary values. In some countries, there’s a simple Auto Spin function which allows up to 50 autospins with loss limits.

The MegaJackpots Elephant King RTP is 92.49%. Whilst this is lower than the 96% norm, it’s acceptable for a progressive jackpot slot. 3.5% of that RTP is reserved for the MegaJackpots jackpot.

With the variance sitting squarely in the middle, the maximum win per spin is 1,000 x your total stake. That doesn’t include the progressive jackpot. The MegaJackpots progressive pays nearly £900,000 on average.

Theme – head to the Serengeti

The MegaJackpots Elephant King slot is the MegaJackpots version of the original Elephant King which is a popular land-based and online game. With an African theme, you head to the Serengeti in search of big prizes.

Boasting similar design to the original, the first you will notice is the thumping tribal soundtrack. Set at dawn, yellows and browns dominate the colour scheme. Well designed, it looks like a land-based slot game actually.

On the reels you will see 5 low value gemstones which are blue, green, dark blue, orange and red in colour. The more rewarding symbols including gazelles, zebras, rhinos and the mighty elephant. The elephant is the highest paying symbol giving you 0.33, 1 or 6.66 x your total stake. This means a screen full of elephants will pay 500 x stake.

The spears and shield symbol is the wild and substitutes for all symbols except the elephant scatter. It also appears on reels 2, 3 and 4 only. There is also a MegaJackpots symbol when appears above the reels (more details below).

MegaJackpots Elephant King Bonus Features

The MegaJackpots Elephant King slot has 3 bonus features. It revolves around the Prize Disk prizes which can dish out cash prizes, free spins, extra free spins and a progressive jackpot.

Prize Disk feature

The Prize Disk feature is activated when 1 or more elephant scatters appear on the reels. They only appear on reels 1, 3 and 5 for your reference. Each triggering scatter pays a cash prizes, awards free spins, extra spins or triggers the MegaJackpots Bonus feature.

This is determined by the Prize Disk position above the triggering symbol. The cash prizes range from 4 to 133.33 x your total stake. On every spin, the Prize Disk (above the reels) shifts 1 reel left giving you a new Prize Disk position above reel 5. If you landed 3 scatters, you could win 3 prizes for example.

Free Spins Bonus feature

The Free Spins Bonus feature is triggered when 1 or more Free Spins symbols appear from the Prize Disk feature. Every triggering Free Spins symbol awards 10 free spins meaning you can begin with up to 30 free spins.

More importantly, the higher value symbols during the free spins are more lucrative. Some are worth double. If you take the high paying elephant symbol, it’s worth 0.66, 2 or 13.33 x stake for 3, 4 or 5 in combination. This means a screen full of elephant symbols will pay 1,000 x your total stake.

Look out for Extra Spins symbols in the Prize Disk feature which will award 2 extra free spins. You can win lots of additional free spins with up to 250 free spins playable in total.

MegaJackpots Bonus feature

The MegaJackpots Bonus feature is played when an elephant scatter appears on any reel and the MegaJackpots symbol appears in the Prize Disk above it in the base game or Free Spins Bonus feature.

This will give you 1 spin of the MegaJackpots Prize Disk. Any prizes displayed in the MegaJackpots Prize Disk above the elephant scatter will be awarded. The jackpot is won when the MegaJackpots symbol appears in the MegaJackpots Prize Disk above the elephant scatter.

The MegaJackpots progressive pays out nearly £900,000 on average, every 57 days. With the biggest MegaJackpots reaching over £1.4 million in January 2019, there are other MegaJackpots slots including Cleopatra, Siberian Storm and Monopoly.

The MegaJackpots progressive prize delivers an average payout of some £893,634 and lands every 57 days. This pooled prize can also be won if you’re playing the MegaJackpots versions of Siberian Storm, Monopoly and Cluedo.

MegaJackpots Elephant King Review Summary – a rather tame African adventure

This MegaJackpots Elephant King slot is the same and the original game. The only addition is the MegaJackpots Bonus feature. In terms of gameplay, the Prize Disk prizes are decent. The bigger wins will come from the free spins as higher value symbols can lead to 1,000 x stake payouts on each free spin.

However, this game is all about the MegaJackpots progressive which pays nearly £900,000 on average. Whilst very hard to win, it’s a decent slot if you fancy venturing to African plains. If you compare to MegaJackpots Cleopatra, the latter offers 9,950 x stake wins on each free spin (as well as the jackpot).

If you want more trips to the Serengeti, Microgaming’s Mega Moolah is the go-to slot. With free spins and a trebling multiplier, it’s the most popular jackpot online slot. It is also responsible for the world’s largest ever online jackpot, a staggering €19.4 million.
