Slotsaurus Slots
A word of warning – if scary beasts and terrifying dinosaurs scare the daylight out of you, do NOT give Slotsaurus a go!
This one – unlike every other Spinomenal slot out there – is not meant to be played by the faint of heart, and we mean it. But if you just love to get spooked from time to time (a simple test – do you love Jurassic Park movies?), you might as well go ahead and bookmark Slotsaurus, a brilliantly terrific slot by Spinomenal. Features abound and coins keep showering here, and as long as you have your luck backing you firmly, you’ve got nothing to be scared of!
Keeping us entertained – the Spinomenal way
If we are asked to sum up every Spinomenal slot in one word, our unanimous choice would be ‘entertainment’. We have seen enough slots and interacted with enough slot fans to know that the only thing slot lovers care about (apart from, of course, profitability) is the entertainment factor of a slot. They do love their fruit slots and magic reels, no doubt – but what they prefer to have in this day and age is a slot that is high-octane, big on 3D graphics, loaded with characteristic sound effects and keeps them rooted to their spot.
It would be safe to say that Slotsaurus comes good on most of these counts, presenting itself as a brash hybrid between 2D fantasy slots and immersive 4D PlayStation games.
What you need to know
The only thing you need to know before you start spinning these prehistoric reels with vigour and energy is that Slotsaurus is not as creative as the reputation of Spinomenal might tout it to be.
However, it is a neatly constructed recipe that makes sure that it does not wane in intensity and keeps the high-dram on, right till the moment when the reels finally come to a standstill. There are 5 reels (again, a standard practice) accompanied by just as many paylines.
Having to make do with only 5 paylines is perhaps the only beef we would have with this otherwise excellent slot. The reel to payline ratio of 1.0 is never fertile enough, in that it rarely throws fruitful combinations that will actually go on to pay cash out to you. So, in essence, players start just a touch behind the line, and that – in no situation – is an encouraging sign. However, what is to follow does a lot to compensate for this fact.
The reels of terror
Dinosaurs have been able to capture popular imagination for hundreds of years now. Their sheer size, the power they wielded and their curious lifestyles (including their extinction) have garnered so much interest among public that fields as diverse as university research cells and Hollywood production studios have devoted huge resources to know more about these.
So, it doesn’t come as a surprise when you see a small iGaming developer like Spinomenal devote reels after reels to these beasts of terror. Every reel in Slotsaurus houses a different breed of dinosaurs, and they, without any exaggeration, certainly justify their presence by turning these reels bigger – much, much bigger – than life itself.
The base game, however, fails to pay out generously. You can hope to win a maximum of 80 coins in the base game, a sum that might eventually turn out to be too lowly. So, you are forced to look elsewhere for making things up, and that is where special symbols and features of this slot rise to the occasion!
The wild – a cruel reminder
A desolate skull of a dead dinosaur counts as the wild of this slot. It helps you turn a not-so-good combination into a well-paying one, by allowing you to substitute for all regular symbols.
The scatter – a force to reckon with
The logo of the slot plays the scatter here. For 3, 4 and 5 appearances respectively, the scatter multiplies your total winnings by 3x, 4x and 5x. As if that weren’t enough, it also dishes out 5, 8 and 12 free spins for these instances.
And not to mention, the usual Spinomenal feature of multiplier-counter being fuelled by consecutive non-winning spins means you always have a chance to make your luck count, you will have seen this on other slots from them such as the Secret Potion slot.
Slotosaurus won’t go extinct
Extinction or survival – life is nothing but a game of chance. That’s why, on many levels, Slotsaurus manages to appeal strongly. It is a good looking slot that achieves intended effects quite surreally. It might have been better served with better payouts or bonus rounds, but in its present state, it still is a slot worth a slot fan’s time either free play or as an online slot for money.
