Grab the mosquito cream and jump in your jeep - it's time to head out onto the savanna plains to play Rhino Blitz. This is your chance to get up close and personal with one of the rarest and most dangerous animals in Africa: the rhino, in a Playtech Originals slot. Admire the glorious landscape under the scorching sun as you enjoy a safari that could deliver a stunning prize of up to x10,000.
Regular players may have slipped into their khakis before as there are plenty of studios that take a trip into the African Bush. Playtech are frequent travellers too, but their previous big hit Buffalo Blitz wasn't based in Africa but in North America. Buffalo Blitz and Buffalo Blitz 2 had a very different vibe with buffalo, cougar and moose, but the concept is the same. Playtech have moved continents to repeat the action with a whole new set of animals. This means if you've played Buffalo Blitz, some of the gameplay in Rhino Blitz may seem somewhat familiar but with a different setting and a different cast of creatures. Why not give it a whirl anyway?
A charging rhino needs plenty of space, so Playtech have obliged with a 6x4 grid. They've opted for the more modern 4096 ways to win rather than conventional paylines. That means you only need to watch out for symbols in adjacent columns - leaving your eye free to look over your shoulder for marauding wildlife! You can join in for a min bet of just 0.20, so it's a slot that's open to all. At the opposite end of the betting spectrum, there's a max bet of 400.00 which should be plenty for high rollers to get their teeth into!
The beautiful design will transport players to the vast plains of the African continent, where some of the most incredible animals in the world roam free. With the familiar African acacia tree silhouetted on the horizon, mountains and green landscape, this slot really showcases the best of the African bush, proving that it's not just dusty ground and blazing sun.
On the reels, you'll find all the sights that you'll have been hoping to spot on any safari with all the big game making an appearance. Hyena, monkeys, antelope, lionesses and the rhino are the premium pays with the low pays made up of the usual royals.
There's also a diamond symbol which is the wild and can substitute for others to make more matches.
Land three or more scatters on a single turn, and you'll unlock the free spins round. The number of scatters you land will determine the number of free spins with up to 100 free spins available for a full set of six scatters. If you just land three, you'll play with eight free spins, but it is possible to retrigger the bonus by landing scatters during the round.
During the free spins bonus, each of the reels will be allocated a random symbol and a multiplier. If you land a winning line that matches the symbol on the reel, the multiplier will be applied to your prize. Two or more scatters will bump up the multiplier further as well as retriggering the feature. It’s possible for the multiplier to increase up to a maximum of x10, and you can retrigger up to 100 free spins.
In addition to the free spins round, there’s also a progressive jackpot. Uncover diamonds on the bonus board to claim either the Mini, Minor, Major or Blitz jackpots for the big money payouts.
Rhino Blitz is instantly recognisable as a Playtech Originals slot with its distinctive golden glow around the animals marking this as a similar game to Buffalo Blitz. But that's no bad thing as Buffalo Blitz 1 and 2 were both massive hits with players, so making the move to Africa should bring equal success - and hopefully equally large paydays too!
