The Jumanji universe continues to fascinate! After several film adaptations, Jumanji now finds itself… in a slot machine version. NetEnt, a well-known provider accustomed to this type of project, has indeed launched a slot directly inspired by this exceptional world, where wild animals, adventure and dangers intertwine and which our teams have analysed, in order to present it to you in detail.

Discover the Jumanji slot machine, by NetEnt

The Jumanji slot machine, by NetEnt, was launched on the market back in 2018. As its name suggests, it is directly inspired by the iconic 1995 film, which was directed by Joe Johnston.

This slot machine operates on the basis of a 3x5 reel grid, for a total of 36 paying paylines. It is a slot machine with rather low volatility that will inevitably speak to you if you like adventure films.

The symbols of the Jumanji slot machine

The Jumanji slot machine is composed of several symbols, divided into two distinct groups. On one side, you will find the classic symbols. These are "playing card" symbols, ranging from Jack to Ace (J, Q, K and Ace). These symbols are the ones that appear most often during a game. They are also the lowest paying.

The premium symbols, meanwhile, represent jungle animals. You will find the lion, the rhinoceros, the crocodile and the pelican. These are symbols that appear less often, but they are also the symbols that are the most profitable.

Finally, you will find: 

• a Wild symbol. Like all, the Wild symbol aims to replace any symbol in the game to create winning combinations.

• a Scatter, which takes the form of the game box.

The options and bonuses of the Jumanji slot machine

Here are the different options and features of the Jumanji slot machine.

Sticky Vines

The first feature of the Jumanji slot machine is the Sticky Vines bonus. This allows you to obtain free re-spins. 

The winning symbols of certain combinations will then become sticky, in the hope that winning combinations will form on the next spins. 

In some cases, the Monsoon Wilds option can be activated. Thus, two entire reels are covered with Wild symbols.

Monkey Mayhem

The Monkey Mayhem feature is very interesting. Indeed, it allows the monkeys in the game to intervene to swap the different positions of your symbols at the end of a spin. The goal? That the monkeys allow you to form winning combinations, without you having to do anything.

Wild Stampede

The Wild Stampede feature is quite surprising. Activated, it induces the arrival of a herd of rhinoceroses on the game screen. They will then spread up to nine wild symbols across the game grid, completely at random.

Scatter option

Finally, the Scatter symbol allows you to unlock the game's mini-bonus. To do this, you will need to get 3 Scatters. As soon as this is the case, you can then roll two dice next to the game grid (the more Scatters you have in hand, the more dice rolls you have available).

For a concrete example, see the Hugo Bets review.

Depending on the result of the dice roll, you can then unlock free spins: 

• 10 free spins, thanks to the Vines Free Spins

• 7 free spins, thanks to the Monsoon Free Spin,

• 6 free spins, with the Monkey Free Spins,

• 5 free spins with the Stampede Free Spins,

• extra dice games, with the Extra Rolls option,

• coins credited to the player's account, thanks to the Coin Wins option,

• a mystery option.

RTP and profitability of the Jumanji slot machine

Is the Jumanji slot machine by NetEnt profitable? You should know that it has an RTP (return to player rate) of 96.33%. This is a high rate. Generally, slot machines have a return to player rate that varies from 94% to 96%, so this one is above average.

The minimum bet is 10 pence. The maximum bet is 200 pounds, for a total maximum win of x5,000. This is low compared to some slots that ensure wins that can reach x10 or even x20,000, but this profitability is rare and a win at x5,000 is already very profitable.

How to play the Jumanji slot machine?

Playing the Jumanji slot machine is very simple. Once the game is launched, simply pay for your spin and then activate the slot machine whose reels will start to turn and then slow down before revealing their combination.

If you have nothing, not even a bonus, you lose your bet. Otherwise, everything happens automatically: in the event of a winning combination, you are credited. Otherwise, the bonuses will launch on their own. You will only have to act in the event of a Scatter, by rolling the two dice made available to you.

Note, moreover, that this slot machine exists in demo mode. You can therefore play it without having to spend any money.
