The bone meter needs 6 steps to fill but increases by 1 step the first 2 times up to 8 steps. If you triggered the feature with 4 or more scatters, a symbol upgrade is awarded for each extra scatter. Finally, the feature ends when you run of lives/free spins.

Raging Rex 3 Review Summary: better graphics/soundtrack with slight differences in the gameplay

With a much more immersive feel, Play ‘n GO has gone to town in terms of the production. The Raging Rex 3 slot looks the part with a great soundtrack to match. Unfortunately, the gameplay hasn’t had quite the same upgrade.

The Re-Spins feature is more or less the same as in Raging Rex 2 (no qualms there). However, the free spins features have changed slightly. The Feeding Frenzy and Hatchling Mania free spins are by en large the same as their counterparts in the previous slot game. On a negative note, the number of free spins awarded in Raging Rex 3 is lower.

What is different is the Survival Free Spins feature. More of a respins game than free spins truth be told, it offers something unique and exciting to try. The key is to fill the bone meter which removes bone symbols from the grid and upgrades the dinosaurs’ symbol values.

In summary, Play ‘n GO has delivered a much better-looking game in the Raging Rex 3 slot. The bonus features have changed slightlyadding variety. However, the max win of 30,000 x bet remains the same as Raging Rex 2 which is a tad disappointing. That said, that is a top payout figure all of us would be happy to land.
