You must have heard about the famous story of the Canterbury Panther, eh? For years, tourists and South Islanders have been claiming to have seen a strange creature that looks like a panther in the wilderness.
Some say it is true, others state that everything is a joke and that South Islanders are doing this only to attract tourists. As for me, I don’t know what to think, but I reckon that the panther could have escaped from a circus or some private collection and now hides in the wilderness.
Nevertheless, you will not be hunting the Canterbury Panther today. You should concentrate on catching the panther in Jungle Gold Megaways.
Pay close attention because the panther does not appear on every spin. It can only be spotted on reels 2, 3, and 4. Once on the screen, the feline acts as a Wild and substitutes for all regular symbols. You will get 2 knives to use for self-defence and to represent Scatters that trigger free spins.
Apart from the panther, the ruler of the jungle, you will come across monkeys, frogs, and parrots. These animals do not appear as dangerous. Even so, keep your protection close. Maybe you can throw playing cards on them since they are made of stone.
The Onlyplay title is played on 5 reels and uses the iconic Megaways game engine from Big Time Gaming. You can land 2-6 icons on a single reel, giving you up to 7,776 ways to win. The pokie pays left to right, beginning from the far-left reel.
To win a payout, you need matching icons on at least 3 successive reels. Set your bet somewhere between $1 and $50, and you are ready to spin the reels. Jungle Gold Megaways’ RTP is 95.08%.
In theory, the maximum possible payout is set at 5,000x. However, while testing the game, Onlyplay stated that the maximum win never went over 1,877x. Maybe you will be the one who breaks the current record, eh?
Apart from the Megaways game engine, Jungle Gold Megaways offers one additional feature. This is where knives come in. You will need knives Scatters to trigger free spins. Once in, you will benefit from Sticky Wilds.
To trigger the Free Spins feature, you need to land at least 3 Scatters anywhere on the reels. This will get you 10 free spins. During the feature, you can get 5 extra free spins each time you land 3+ additional Scatters. In theory, you can retrigger the feature indefinitely.
Every time you land a Wild in the Free Spins feature, it turns into a Sticky Wild. It will lock on the reel and change size as the reel changes size on the following free spins. You can get Sticky Wilds on all 3 central reels. This will be of big help when you try to land wins.
I didn’t have much luck with free spins while I tested the game. I triggered the feature 3 times in total. On just 1 occasion, I managed to retrigger the feature and get 15 free spins. However, I did not record my biggest total win when I had 15 free spins.
With 15 free spins, my total win was around 100x. My biggest total win was when I triggered 10 free spins and won around 250x. So, as you can see, I was far from the max payout. Again, I hope you will have more luck and go straight for the 5,000x.
Once you find yourself in the middle of the jungle, you have 2 options – to start running for your life or to start hunting the panther. I chose the latter and I was not disappointed. Well, I was a bit disappointed with the winnings from free spins, to be honest.
Even so, the panther Wild appeared often on the reels and it got me plenty of smaller payouts in the base game. My biggest single win in the base game was 18x. It seems that the panther tried to keep me entertained while waiting for the Scatters to appear.
When free spins came, the panthers disappeared. Only 1 of them decided to stick around and keep me company. Again, Lady Luck did not like me today. Maybe that will not be the case with you. Despite my bad luck, I really feel that Jungle Gold Megaways is a good game.
It offers a bit of features to keep you occupied and also it is not that complicated, so even mere beginners can enjoy it. I rate Jungle Gold Megaways 7.8.
