Savannah Legend Slot Review
Escape the cold and enter the Savannah in Pragmatic Play’s latest African offering, Savannah Legend. Now there is no shortage of Savannah Slots – should you wish to witness the majesty of the plains of Africa then you need not board a plane, but rather log onto whichever casino you play at to be met with plenty of options.
It’s not quite as saturated as the Wild West, but plentifully nonetheless. Pragmatic Play themselves have capitalised on its popularity before, including with the yet-to-be-released Wild Wildebeest Wins, and older ones like African Elephant, Hot Safari and Safari King.
Savannah Legend is probably not The Lion King of Slots, but Pragmatic Play has struck gold with popular and ‘generic’ themes before.
Join us on safari in our Savannah Legend review and see if it’s one of them.
Base Game & Features
Savannah Legend is a 5-reel, 4-row Video Slot with 1,024 active ways to win and varying bet sizes between £.€0.10 and £.€250 per spin. Other statistics include an overall RTP of 96.50%, a High Volatility rating, and a max win cap of 10,000x your bet.
Wins are generated when 2-5 matching symbols land from left to right, starting from the leftmost reel. Each high-paying symbol resembles a safari animal, with the highest-paying (Lion) symbol producing wins between 0.8x and 5x your bet.
Wild Symbols
Wild symbols appear on reels 2, 3, and 4, substituting for all symbols except Scatters.
When a Wild symbol hits, it reveals a random Multiplier of x2 or x3 that is applied to all wins it is a part of. If more than 1 Multiplier is part of the same winning sequence, their values are added together and applied.
Bonus Buy
Non-UK players can buy their way into the Free Spins round for an additional 100x their current bet. Once active, 3, 4, or 5 Scatters are guaranteed to land in the next spin.
Free Spins
Landing 3, 4, or 5 Scatters anywhere in the base game triggers the Free Spins round, awarding 8, 15, and 20 Free Spins respectively.
During this round, all Wild symbols that are part of a win will generate a Multiplier of x2 or x3. If more Wilds are part of the same winning sequence, their values will multiply each other.
In Free Spins, a special Lion symbol appears on all reels. When in view, it is collected and then transformed into the highest-paying symbol. When so many Lion symbols are collected, the following functions occur:
- 4 Lion symbols: Transforms the Giraffe symbol into Lions
- 7 Lion symbols: Transforms the Zebra symbol into Lions
- 13 Lion symbols: Transforms the Hyena symbol into Lions
- 15 Lion symbols: Transforms the Meerkat symbol into Lions
If the 15th Lion symbol is collected during the final spin, +1 Free Spin is awarded. Landing 2, 3, 4, or 5 Scatters awards an additional 5, 8, 15, and 20 Free Spins respectively.
Our Verdict
When you first load up Savannah Legend, you’re met by beautiful animals in their natural habitat and the glow of the Savannah sun. The simple layout of the reel set and the minimal buttons and information on the screen leave little to the imagination, but once you begin spinning the reels, you quickly warm to the game.
In the base game, Wild symbols with potential Multipliers are the star attraction. When a Wild appears in view, there is a 50/50 chance it will reveal a Multiplier of x2 or x3. Due to the ways to win mechanic, winning combinations are limited in payouts, but the Multiplier Wilds help boost their worth significantly.
During Free Spins, we’re introduced to a new Lion symbol that aids in the upgrade of all High-paying symbols. During testing, we found the game to be generous when dishing out additional spins, reminiscent of Primal Megaways. Having the opportunity to upgrade symbols leads to entertaining gameplay and those much-desired big wins.
