Do you feel nature calling? No, I’m talking about your bladder. I’m talking about that deep unspoken desire to return to the wild and live off the land. Then you go camping and realize why we left the wild in the first place. There are mosquitoes, the beds are always incredibly uncomfortable, and the nearest coffee place is more than an hour away. How did our ancestors live like this?

So, forget the real wilderness and explore Betsoft’s Primal Wilderness slot from the comfort of your favorite chair. You’ll be able to get back to your roots and take a shot at the €111,750 max win.

Putting the wild in wilderness

With a title like Primal Wilderness slot, I’m sure your mind goes straight to those Nature channel documentaries that show a predator bringing down its prey and snapping its neck before digging into its bloody meal. Well, this isn’t that. It’s far tamer. It is a little disappointing if you ask me.

As nature-themed slots go Primal Wilderness slot is visually very much middle of the road. The graphics are great, but the slot offers very little in the way of animation with a completely static background. However, there is something that the slot does visually better than any other I’ve seen, and that’s the spin animation. When you click the spin button, you can almost feel the reels burst into life with the forest around them reacting in kind. It really is incredible.

What’s not incredible is the bonus symbol. It lets the slot down. The rest of the slot’s symbols are beautifully illustrated. The bonus symbol is a purple blob that is all but unrecognizable. I’m not sure if it is supposed to be a flower or a bear’s fist in the moonlight, I just have no idea.

Survive off the land

If you’re going to survive off the land in Primal Wilderness slot, you are going to have to know what bonus features are edible and which aren’t.

During base gameplay, you’re going to have to enjoy that sweet spin animation because there’s not much else. The only bonus feature available in the base game is the honey splatter wild symbol that substitutes for all other symbols except the scatter.

If you’re looking for big wins, you’ll have to collect three or more bonus symbols and wait for the sun to go down. Once the forest is illuminated by nothing but moonlight, you’ll receive between 8 and 20 free spins depending on the number of scatter symbols that unlocked your round of free spins.

During a round of free spins, random wild symbols will be upgraded with a 2x or 3x multiplier to supercharge your wilderness wins.

Is Primal Wilderness slot a lion or a house cat?

If you’re not breaking any new ground thematically or visually, you really need to include some interesting bonus features or animations. Primal Wilderness slot doesn’t really make an effort to be unique on any of these fronts. It’s just another nature-themed slot with a free spins bonus feature.

The brutal nature of the Primal Wilderness slot continues through to the numbers with high volatility. You are, however, given a slight reprieve at the watering hole thanks to the 96.28% RTP rating – not bad, but it could certainly be better.

The real kick in the teeth, however, comes with the max win. Sure, a €331,000 sounds great, but it’s on the back of a 3,310x max multiplier. As a result, you’ll have to be betting at €100 each spin for a chance to hit the slot’s big win. It’s not the largest max bet amount I’ve ever seen, but it comes pretty close.

If you’re not done with the primal life, then you should give Primal Megaways and Primal Hunt a try.
