Blazing Mammoth Slot Machine: Review & Demo
Blazing Mammoth is one of the exclusive slots that PearFiction is building for Microgaming casinos. The wild prehistoric adventure that we’re being promised in this one sounds great, and given the design quality that we’ve seen so far from PearFiction Studios, I think it’s going to be a lot of fun. This is one of the 2021 titles that the company is working on, a game that’s giving us a prehistoric wildlife inspired design, along with a very interesting mix of features.
You can spin 5 reels in Blazing Mammoth, and there are always 20 active lines there, to use when forming combinations. On the list of special features, you will discover several scatters, free spins with up to 3x multipliers, and a wild. It can pay very well, 2,000x the stake ($240,000 cash) being above average for a low volatility slot like this one. RTP is also satisfying, set to 96.24%.
Betting and Prizes
Though there is the option to spend up to $120 each round, or $6 per line, you don’t have to. The minimum bet requires only $0.20 per spin, or $0.01 per line.
I think you will enjoy the payouts that are possible in Blazing Mammoth, since it’s a low volatility title, which can pay up to $240,000 cash (2,000x the round’s stake). You can even do it in a couple of different ways, using either the free spins, or the Epic Strike Jackpot.
Its expected Return to Player looks pretty good also, at 96.24%.
Blazing Mammoth Slot Features
Blazing Mammoth will rely on simple W logos for its wilds, symbols that can pay the most when forming combinations (125x the stake per full combo), but which can also be used as substitutes. Their role is not that big when combined in such a manner, because they can’t be allowed to land often when they pay the top prize, but the best possible scenario does require their presence in large numbers.
Another way to get paid very well, is by simply getting 3 to 9 Mammoth symbols in view, at the same time. These are scatters, which trigger a prize, as the prize meter on the left shows. Up to 2,000x the stake is paid thanks to them.
And then, you will also find that the slot has free spins to offer. Using another scatter, which you need visible on the reels three times, it will first lead you to a Wheel, which spins to reveal the number of rounds first, and the multiplier second.
Through the Wheel, you can get 10 to 30 free games. Multipliers can be as high as 3x, and they apply to all winning combinations formed during the free games, but not to the jackpot, if it triggers at that point. The free spins will retrigger with the same number of spins.
Theme & Design
Wildlife themed games are easy enough to find, but the focus on the prehistoric ages is far less common. There are snow-covered peaks in the background, while on the reels you can find a mix of Sevens at first, with 1 to 3 of them together. Next, we find the high value symbols, which will show wolves, rhinos, saber-tooth tigers, rhinos, and the Mammoth (scatter). A secondary scatter, and a W logo for the wild, will also be used. I like the design as well, the quality is high.
Conclusion
Blazing Mammoth doesn’t look too different, it’s similar to a number of other slots from Microgaming and their partners, but it’s a new theme as well, to go with the low volatility and above average prizes.
