What is Animal Instinct™ and who is the game provider?

Animal Instinct™ is an online slot game developed by Playtech. It features a 5-reel layout and includes 40 fixed paylines.

How do I play Animal Instinct™?

To begin playing, select the total bet amount by pressing the "greater than" button (>) to open bet settings, and then use the plus (+) or minus (-) buttons above "TOTAL BET" to adjust the stake. The minimum and maximum bet is £1.60 per spin. Once your bet is set, press the SPIN button to start the reels. If you land a winning combination, your winnings will be shown in the WIN field. Only the highest win per payline is paid, but simultaneous wins on different paylines are accumulated. All wins are calculated according to the paytable.

How does the paytable work in Animal Instinct™?

To access the paytable, press the 'i' icon. You can navigate through the paytable by scrolling or swiping the screen. To exit the paytable and return to the main game, press the back-arrow button. The paytable lists payouts for all symbol combinations and game features.

How are paylines structured in this game?

Animal Instinct™ uses 40 fixed paylines, meaning every spin covers all paylines. The paylines are displayed over the reels in the paytable. Winning combinations must start from the leftmost reel, and the same symbol must appear consecutively along an active payline. The total bet is divided by 40 to determine the line bet. Payouts shown in the paytable are multiplied by the line bet.

Is there a maximum win limit in the game?

Animal Instinct™ sets an upper limit on the maximum potential win. For detailed information regarding this limit, refer to the Terms and Conditions.

What do the Wild, Scatter, and Power Collect symbols do?

  • Wild Symbol: The symbol showing the word ‘WILD’ acts as the Wild, substituting for all other symbols except the Scatter and Power Collect symbols.
  • Scatter Symbol: The symbol depicting the face of a tribesman serves as the Scatter. When it appears simultaneously on reels 1, 3, and 5, it activates one of four Animal Free Games or the Leopard Bonus feature.
  • Power Collect Symbol: The circle with five coloured segments is the Power Collect symbol. When it lands on reels 2, 3, or 4, it activates the Collect feature.

How does the Collect feature work?

When one or more Power Collect symbols appear on reels 2, 3, or 4, the Collect feature starts. The activated Power Collect symbol flashes one of five colours, each corresponding to a specific animal symbol. All matching animal symbols are then collected from the reels. Once collection is complete, the Power Collect symbol becomes a Wild, a payout is awarded, the affected reel collapses, and the corresponding meter fills.

How are the Animal Free Games and Leopard Bonus triggered and what do they offer?

The Animal Free Games or Leopard Bonus feature is triggered when three Scatter symbols land on reels 1, 3, and 5 during the same spin. The awarded feature depends on which animal meter is the most filled at this moment; if there is a tie or all meters are empty, a feature is chosen at random. The available features are:

  • Lion Free Games (Gold Meter): On every spin, one random animal symbol becomes Wild.
  • Elephant Free Games (Red Meter): For 10 spins, a row of multipliers appears above the reels. The rightmost multiplier multiplies all wins from Power Collect symbols. When a multiplier is used, it disappears, the remaining multipliers shift right, and a new one enters on the left. Possible multiplier values include 2x, 3x, 5x, 10x, 15x, 20x, and 25x. Multipliers are removed even if Power Collect symbols attempt to collect animal symbols that are not visible.
  • Rhino Free Games (Pink Meter): For 10 spins, Power Collect symbols land double-stacked during the feature.
  • Buffalo Free Games (Blue Meter): On the first spin, 55 stacked Wilds are added to reel 2; on the second spin, 40 stacked Wilds to reel 3; and on the fourth spin, 65 stacked Wilds to reel 4. These Wild symbols remain until the feature ends.
  • Leopard Bonus (Green Meter): Three Scatter symbols appear on the reels. The left and right Scatters reveal a cash prize and a win multiplier, respectively. The prize is multiplied by up to 5x, and before being awarded, the result is further multiplied by the total bet.

How can I check the theoretical return to player (RTP)?

The theoretical return to player is displayed within the game. This value is calculated based on results from a large number of simulated spins and reflects the theoretical rate of return over time.

What happens if my connection is lost while playing?

If you are disconnected from the internet during a spin, the result is displayed and any winnings are added to your balance after you reconnect. If you are disconnected during a bonus feature or its triggering spin, you will return to the feature when you reconnect. To review the outcome of your last round, you can access your game history via the history icon on the bottom toolbar.

Are there any disclaimers about gameplay?

Any malfunction during play voids all pays and plays.
