Dino Might
The wombat says: Fancy a trip back to prehistoric times? Ever since this wombat was pup and sporting short trousers in the Outback, he’s loved all things dinosaur-related. T-Rexs, Velociraptors, Brontosauruses and Tricerotops were his favourites which is just as well as they feature quite heavily in this Microgaming slot we’re about to review…you know, those people behind the Rhyming Reels Old King Cole slot and others.
Dino Might slot takes you waaaaay back to when dinos ruled the earth during the Jurassic era. And we couldn’t be more excited.
Game Play
The Dino Might slot has 5-reel, 3 rows and 25 pay-lines and is from Microgaming- those people behind the Dolphin Quest slot among others.
OK, so the graphics on Dino Might aren’t exactly ground-breaking, but they’re not too bad seeing as the game is 7 years old. And we are huge fans of soundtrack; the tweeting of birds and chirping of insects, plus the odd distant roar from our extinct friends sets the scene nicely.
Your symbols on the reels are made up of various flora and fauna from the prehistoric period and include; T-Rexs, Triceratops, Ankylosaurus, Brontosauruses and Dilophosaurus, plus 6 different types of weird and wonderful looking plants – including a very scary pink Venus Fly Trap thingy.
The Dino Might logo acts as the Wild in the game, and will substitute for all other symbols on the reels except for the Bonus and Scatter symbols. The Wild will also add a x2 multiplier to any winning combo amount that it appears in, which is a nice touch! It’s a step up from games like the Bridezilla slot in my opinion, but then I like my dinos.
It is also the most lucrative of all the slot’s symbols, and if you land 5x of these prehistoric beauties in a row, you’ll scoop a very generous 8,000 coins. Cheers Microgaming!
Match The Symbol Bonus
Trigger this bonus extra when you land 3x or more of the insect stuck in Amber bonus symbols appearing anywhere on the reels.
You can’t miss them Wombat Fans, they are straight out of Steven Spielberg’s Jurassic Park, but we digress… Next you will need to match 4 identical icons hidden behind a nice dino tableau AND pick the mighty x2 Multiplier at the same time to scoop yourselves a ruddy great big prize.
This wombat managed to pick up 7500 coins from the bonus round – whoop whoop!
Triggersaurus Bonus
If you land 3x or more of the Triggersaurus symbols anywhere on the reels, you’ll set off this straightforward Pick em Bonus. After the nasty-looking Dilophosaurus has hissed at you, players must click on 1 out of the possible 3 Scatters symbols that appear on the reels (or 4 or 5 depending on how many Scatters you landed to begin with). Each dinosaur has a cash prize underneath it that will be instantly added to your coffers, and ranges for 40 up to 700 coins.
Conclusion
There’s a potential 80,000-coin jackpot up for grabs in this slot – and if our game-play was anything to go by, it might just be achievable! Dino Might is a bit of a dinosaur in its look and feel, but there are plenty of features to keep you busy, and they land very regularly making this slot a lucrative little number. Give it a whirl.
Wombat score: 4/5
Hurrah for dinosaurs!
