How To Play 5 Lions Mobile Slot
With multipliers ranging from 2x to 40x on the wild during the free spins, this 5 Lions slot gives you lots and lots (too much?) choices.
The Safari slot theme in this Pragmatic mobile game isn’t much to shout about. You’ve got golden animals in the shape of a turtle, a koi, a dog, a phoenix and a dragon. The high paying symbols.
Then you have Ace to 9 as the low paying ones, all covering an ornate golden 5×3 reels with 243 ways to wins. It’s not extraordinary, but then Pragmatic aren’t about creating original themes.
Hot Safari is a simple African game, and Gold Rush slot is all about mining. Yet both have superb mechanics. Can this 5 Lions slot compare?
Can I pick my multiplier on the wild symbols?
Only during the free spin bonus game. 3 scatters will let you choose between 7 possible options.
You can either get lots of free spins and smaller multipliers or very few free spins and huge multipliers – up to 40x the symbol win.
That’s huge, and leads to massive wins, especially if you are brave and pick the bigger multipliers over the free spins.
The good news is that the base game doesn’t lack action either. The Wild symbol can randomly come with a 2x up to 40x multiplier when it’s part of a win, which means any spin can be eye-popping.
So what’s the problem with this 5 Lion slot?
There are really two problems, both of which is partly because of how volatile this 5 Lions video slot has been set.
- With the multipliers on the wilds only, a win doesn’t often lead to massive results
- The multiple choices over the free spins can leave you frustrated when you pick the wrong one, especially as they don’t come around very often.
That said, the reels during the free spins increase from 342 to 576 ways to win, increasing your odds of getting wins and wilds so there’s that.
Too volatile for its own good
But, in our opinion, this 5 Lions slot game is just a little too volatile to be truly enjoyable and has too many dead spins to make the payoff worthwhile.
There are big wins here if you have the kind of patience that loves games like the Kronos slot or Pixies of the Forest slot.
But otherwise, something a little more action-packed, like Afterlife Inferno, is probably the way to go.
