The Jaguar Gold slot from Skywind (the people behind the Mystery Bells slot and others) will have you up close and personal with an elegant (but deadly) spotted Big Cat over five reels, three rows and twenty-five pay lines. Shudder!
And, according to the blurb, it comes with three Bonus Features – Jumbo Links Wild Free Spins, as well as three Jackpots! When comparing it to a game like the Coils of Cash slot it is refreshingly traditional.
Skywind is a UK-based games developer that is building its reputation – let’s see what they’re made of shall we?
Graphics and Theme
Jungle-based slot shenanigans are the order of the day in Jaguar Gold with all manner of beasts making up the pay table.
As for the design, well the reels are set in a lush green jungle with bird song and a general din of animal noises on top of a drum-heavy tribal ditty.
The visuals aren’t breath-taking, (head to Lord Merlin and the Lady of the Lake for that) but they are decent enough.
Pay Table
Rainforest frogs, multi-coloured toucans, anguished antelopes (they’re forever running away from the jaguars) and grumpy gorillas make up your high-paying symbols.
The lower value symbols are the standard J, Q, K & A playing cards. The scary gorilla is the most lucrative icon on the reels – and he’ll pay you 500 coins for five in a row. Good man.
The scatter symbol is the rainforest icon, while the handsome jaguar is Wild – he/she will substitute for all other symbols in play except for the diamond bonus and scatter icon.
Jaguar Gold Slot Game Play
Fire up this Jaguar Gold slot and place your bets from 0.25 to 250.00 coins per spin.
The volatility level is high here which means you’ll need to keep an eye on your bank balance, and the highest available win is 1,000 times your bet. You can hunt this down in the Mega Jackpot. More on this below.
Bonus Features
Jumbo Links Bonus
Land six or more diamond bonus icons and it could be jackpot time! The bonus diamonds will become sticky and are locked in place while the reels re-spin three times. Hit either the Mini or Major jackpot icons and you’ll scoop up the wins.
Each new bonus symbol that lands will reset the spin counter back to 3 until there are no new diamonds or the entire reel set is full of sparkly gems. They’re a Wombat’s best friend.
Manage that, and the 1000x your bet Mega Jackpot is yours!
Free Spins
Set off the Free Spins by landing three of the Rainforest Scatters on reels 1, 3 and 5. You’ll get five Free Spins and during the feature, reels 2, 3 and 4 will turn into a giant reel with mega symbols spinning on it.
Best of all the bonus can be re-triggered infinitely.
Conclusion
The Jaguar Gold slot is a simple game with potentially decent wins on offer thanks to those Jumbo Links re-spins.
We like these Skywind guys and girls, and look forward to seeing more of their games!
