Stats show that Planet of the Apes has been one of the most successful movie franchise in 50 years. The 1968 film was remade and now in 2017 NetEnt has made Planet of the Apes come to life in the real money iGaming arena. This is a duel reel slot with 600,000 coins waiting to pay out. Scatters, wilds, stacked wilds, multipliers, and free spins over 2 reels all for the same price of spinning just a single reel – this slot is going to be massively popular!!!
There are duel reels on this brand new NetEnt feature slot.
That means you essentially have 2 slots in one game. Duel reels means you have 5 reels on the left for the ‘Rise’ version of the slot, and 5 more reels on the right for the ‘Dawn’ version of the slot. Each set of reels has 20 pay-lines and are 3 deep.
You can bet up to 10 coins per line with each coin set to a minimum of £0.01 and a maximum of £1.00. With 10 coins per line over 20 lines you can bet a maximum of 200 coins per spin. With the highest coin value at £1.00, maximum spins per set of reels is £200.
What is great is that you get to spin both reels and your bets count for both reels. So you can bet 1 coin per line at the minimum bet of 20 coins a spin and both reels win spin to try and churn out a win for you.
NetEnt are not shy when it comes to creating the best graphics in the business. This is a 3D motion picture slot just like the film.
With 2 sets of reels – ‘Rise’ and ‘Dawn’ you will get the same symbols on both sides, and the pay-outs for the corresponding symbols all have equal value.
Of course, the theme is already self-explanatory. Moreover, the symbols are characters straight out of the film, plus you have 10, Jack, Queen, King, and Ace symbols.
What stands out is the graphics and animations spread across both reels which is amazing. As this is the very latest in NetEnt’s long list of games, so far this is the best in terms of sound, movement, and it even crams into a mobile screen pretty well considering there are 2 reels.
To get into the free spins round, you need to land the scatters symbols 3 or more times anywhere on the reels.
Note that the scatters must be on the specific set of reels – so therefore, the scatters would need to all appear either in the ‘Rise’ version of the reels, or you would need to have them in the ‘Dawn’ version of the reels.
You can land 3+ scatters on ‘Rise’ and 3+ scatters on ‘Dawn’ – which is hard to do, but if you do, then you’ll be in for some amazing cash prizes.
Rise Free Spins Round
On the Rise version you will get 10 free spins. Every time a wild symbol lands on the reels it will be stored. Then on the final spin, all the wilds will be added to the reels at once to guarantee a pay-out pretty much.
Dawn Free Spins Round
On the Dawn version, you will get 15 free spins. In the free spins round if you land ‘Collect’ symbols you will activate meters – Multiplier, Extra Wild and Extra Free Spins.
The more times these ‘Collect’ symbols’ the meters will rise. Once the meter hits max, you will be given multipliers on wins if this meter comes up, extra wilds or extra free spins – and if you activate all 3, then you are in for some big cash pay-outs.
The wild symbol is present on both sets reels. They will substitute for any other symbol in the game apart from the scatter symbols. Wilds also stack in the ‘Rise’ game as spins progress further, and once a reel is full of wilds, the stacked wilds will be replicated over to the ‘Dawn’ reels.
Scatters are there purely to trigger the free spins round. There are also multipliers on this slot, but only in the Dawn Free Spins round. During this free spin round ‘Collect’ bonus symbols on the reels build up a multiplier meter, and if this meter is filled up successfully, then multipliers are applied to the free spins round wins.
Effectively the bonus round on this slot are the 2 variation of free spin rounds activated by 3 or more scatter symbols.
There is no progressive jackpot. However, the maximum win on Planet of the Apes is 800,000 coins.
As with all newer slots, you can expect all the online casinos that provide NetEnt slots to have the mobile version of this slot. Windows Mobile, Android, Blackberry, and iOS NetEnt casinos will all be showcasing Planet of the Apes for mobiles players.
Net Entertainment (NetEnt) masterminded the movie come slot.
There is a 96.3% RTP
Well when you break it down, this is in fact a 10 reel and 40 pay-line slot, but you won’t have to bet all 40-pay-lines. If you are looking for a slot that kind of gives you a buy 1 get 1 free, then this is it.
Bet the value of 20 pay-lines on 5 reels and get 40 pay-lines and 10 lines worth of fun. Also, this yet another new and refreshing slot theme, so if you are a player looking to play the latest and greatest of slots online, then Planet of the Apes is it!
