Great Rhino Deluxe

Great Rhino Deluxe Slot Review

Golden hour on the savanna, and the frame knows it: carved ivory tusks strung with feathers, beads and little leather charms hang either side of a timber-mounted reel panel, while behind it zebra graze in the yellow grass and a grey rhino stands in the brush. Pragmatic Play could paint this sunset in their sleep by now, and that familiarity is the point.

This is the rare Deluxe remake that gives up drama on purpose. Where Great Rhino and its Megaways sibling push for bigger swings, this one sits on a 5×3 grid at 96.54% RTP and low volatility, with a ceiling of 6,242x the bet and stakes from 0.20 to 240.00. The savanna is quieter here, and it’s meant to be.

Base Game & Features

Wins pay left to right on adjacent reels starting from the leftmost side. Only the highest combination counts per line, and wins across multiple lines are added to the total. Free spins winnings are added to the payline win on top.

All wins are multiplied by the bet per line, and values are expressed as coins. It’s a conventional payline build with nothing exotic in the wiring.

The Rhino is wild, appears on all reels and substitutes for everything except the scatter. It also tops the paytable, with the scatter close behind it. Every value below is a multiple of the total bet:

• Rhino (wild) – 0.1x for two, 2.5x for three, 7.5x for four, 20x for five
• Scatter – 0.2x for two, 2.5x for three, 7.5x for four, 25x for five
• Cheetah – 0.75x for three, 2.5x for four, 10x for five
• Gorilla – 0.5x, 2x, 7.5x
• Crocodile – 0.5x, 1.5x, 5x
• Hyena – 0.5x, 1.25x, 2.5x
• Flamingo – 0.25x, 0.5x, 1.25x
• A, K, Q – 0.25x, 0.5x, 1x

There’s a clear break after the Cheetah, and another after the Gorilla. The cat pays 10x for five where the royals pay 1x, so a base-game hit worth having wants the big symbols lined up across the middle. Everything from the Crocodile down is small change by comparison.

The scatter sits only on reels two, three and four. Three of them trigger the Free Spins Feature, and a pair still returns 0.2x, which softens the near-miss on the middle reel.

Low volatility is the deliberate choice here. The game pays out more often in smaller amounts while keeping the chance of a big win alive, and the respin round is where every large win in this build has to come from.

Great Rhino Deluxe: Super Respin & Free Spins

Super Respin Feature

Two or more full stacks of Rhino wilds anywhere on the reels set this one off. Regular winning combinations are paid first, then everything except the full Rhino stacks clears off the screen.

The round starts with three respins, and only Rhino symbols spin. Every new Rhino that hits locks in place and awards one more respin.

A newly added Rhino can randomly carry a 2x multiplier, applied to the line win at the end of the round. Multipliers that are part of the same win multiply each other, so a cluster of marked Rhinos compounds quickly. When the respins run out, all Rhino win combinations are added together and paid.

Fixed Jackpots

Two jackpots sit above the reels as plaques in the top corners, and the respin round is the only route to either of them. The thresholds are exact:

• Major Jackpot – 14 Rhinos on screen when the respins end: 375x the total bet, paid instead of win lines
• Grand Jackpot – a 15th Rhino lands during the round: the feature ends immediately and pays 500x the total bet

With 15 positions on a 5×3 grid, the Grand is a full screen of Rhinos. The stacked multipliers can push a line win past the 500x Grand on their own, which makes the 15th Rhino as much a finish line as a prize.

Free Spins Feature

Three scatters on the middle reels award 10 free spins. Special reels are in play for the round, and every Rhino that lands during it is collected rather than paid on the spot.

On the final spin, all collected Rhinos return to the screen in random positions and pay line wins at paytable value. There’s no retrigger within the round and no route into the Super Respin while it runs.

If a single spin awards both features at once, the order is fixed: the Super Respin plays out first, then the free spins follow it. Ten spins is all there is, so the Rhino collection on the last one carries the round.

Our Honest Verdict

Overall Rating: 7.2/10

Playing this is a long, warm evening on the savanna: small wins ticking over, the Rhino stacks building somewhere in the middle distance, and one round doing all the hoping. That round is the reason anyone picks it. The Super Respin is a proper hold-and-collect – multipliers that multiply each other give a filling screen a real ceiling, and both jackpots are honest 375x and 500x targets rather than dangling numbers.

The weakness is everything else. Free spins are ten spins and a coin toss on the last one, with no retrigger and no escape into the respin round, and the base paytable falls off a cliff after the Cheetah. For players who want regular payouts and one feature worth waiting for, this is a comfortable home. Chase-the-ceiling players have the Megaways version for that, and this grass isn’t for them.
