....gooo...gooo...gaaaa...gaaaa...

Oh darn, that's fcked up. Is it just plain bad luck? I guess the RTP is kinda low right now. Maybe an updated version pays better?

I guess RTP was low at the moment. Not sure. But not on my list for playing soon.

Sorry I'm late posting here. I haven't tried it in real yet had a quick go in fun and thought it was weird! Guess I'll be giving it a go over the next couple of days but it's usually my kind of game.

[Afi4wins]

Well, I've played this Ape game a few times already, all with given free spins of course...and none paying at all!

Luck my friend, you need plenty of them playing this game...well or any other games actually.

I believe the RTP is above 96%, that's what LuckyCasino showed when I put the cursor on the thumbnail

Well, with NetEnt games nowadays, luck is no longer with me...they only get my one finger.

I've been trying to search for a review of this game since it seems like there are only a few who really released it. before I actually deposit on my account in betncatch casino. I received a newsletter that they will be launching this game and will be giving out exclusive promotions, I loved the 2 movies but let's see if I'll actually love playing it.   fingers crossed.

Hi manson and welcome to the forum. See now I wasn't a fan of the movies either but let us know what you think after you've tried it.

If you mean you've been looking for a game review on Planet Of The Apes here in Askgamblers, then you won't find it I'm afraid. Why? Because members have not posted any new game reviews in the game section due to a suspension. Don't know when this can or will resume, so for any new games, you'll just have to search for a topic on it in the forum. Hopefully you'll find what you are looking for.

And here I am trying to do the same thing. lol. well, not just here but I guess I just have to try it myself... I was really skeptical at first because I might end up confused since they have both "Rise"& "Dawn" in one screen, I've redeposited just to try this soooo, I'll probably get back here (Only if I wouldn't end up playing all night)

Thanks a lot, whew. Got curious again. I'll probably play this in the next few days, I'm still getting a hang of the newer games from netent, They are nice visually but sometimes I got so carried away and end up loosing everything in a snap. haha    I wish I still got my old luck.. dunno if its their games or is it just me,

Well...if you ask me...I will always say "it's their games!" 

 

Why? Because their newer games have extremely low paytables nowadays as compared to their older games, so the old games should pay better...but they don't now anyway. Seems like even their old games have become very poor paying games. 

[LeoDubbed]

And that's why I'm still exploring the worlde wide web, hoping to find a new great gaming providers. I'm still searching though but for now Habanero, GamOmat and Merkur are on top of my list.

A long awaited slot from NETENT.

 

Well what can I say, I couldn't wait to try it out.

 

The graphics are with a lot of NETENT slots great, but that is where the pluses on this slot for me ended. 

 

As with an awful lot of slots from NETENT, the features can be so painfully hard to obtain, if you have ever played Jack & The Beanstalk you will know what I mean.

In fact I am sure Halley's Comet makes more & frequent appearances.

 

The main screen it split into 2 sections each with a it's own standard 5x 3 grid, one side playing " Rise " the other playing " Dawn" in reference to the 1st two film titles.

 

This in it'self is frustrating after a while as when you hit the start button there is a "Lag" between the end of the last reel spinning on the Rise side of the screen to the start of the 1st reel spinning in on the Dawn side.

You may think this is nothing to start with, as I didn't but it becomes increasing annoying during a long gaming session.

 

The two main features are awarded by obtaining 3 symbols on one side of the grid in any order & position, much like most standard bonus entry systems, but it doe not initiate with 3 symbols or more spread over both grids.

 

The feature on the Rise side consists of a starting 10 free spins, with wilds being collected though those spins to be added in a random order to the 5x3 grid for the final spin., all pretty basic stuff nowadays T.B.H.

 

The feature on the Dawn side is a little different as you start with 15 free spins, but there are upgrade symbols you can obtain to grant extra spins, a x2 to x5 multiplier & a extra wild symbol that transfer characters symbols into additional wilds, but in all cases you need 3 symbols to initiate any upgrade. 

 

There is also a fixed Rise symbol that appears randomly one reel one on the Rise side, which if landed transforms any human or ape symbols on that grid to cash values, but not the standard A.K.Q.J.10 symbols. 

In the same breath there is a fixed Dawn symbol that again appears randomly on reel 5 on the Dawn side, which if landed transforms any human or ape symbol into all the same symbol, but have yet to figure out if the symbol transfer is always the same character, as on the 2 times I go it, it was.

 

There is also another feature, again randomly triggered at the start of each spin ( A bit like the Genie popping out of the bottle on Genie Jackpots, or the Roman soldier popping his head up in Centurion). 

It's called the Dual Feature, where 2 random symbols are selected for each side of the grid, & the reels spin until no more of those symbols appear in either section ( Again a bit like the added bonus symbols in Dr Frankenstein or Uncut Barber Shop ). 

I got this feature twice & on both occasions I had a low grade & medium grade symbol appear.

 

The final feature if you like to call it that is if you obtain a full stack of wilds on the Rise side of the grid they are transferred to the exact same positions on the Dawn side, so again a bit like Rainbow Riches Reels Of Gold, Spartacus, similar type games. 

 

So all in all a slot which incorporates a lot of features, but none of them really initiative, as they have all been done before in one shape or form by another.

 

As to payout on the features, I was playing at £2.00 per spin just to get a feel, the 3x symbol bonuses on average paid around £100.00, so £50.00 to a £1.00 stake.

The Duel feature bonus paid less than £50.00 on both occasions I got it.

I cant even remember what the "Fixed" Rse & Dawn bonus symbols paid, as I was mind numbing bored at those points with the repetition of it all.

As for the fixed wilds moving over I never in a long play session got more than 1 row to transfer over.

 

So all in all.

 

A slot as I said that is painfully hard to obtain the features. 

 

A slot that really does not pay out enough on the bonuses to warrant how hard they are to get.

 

A slot that lags between the split screen gaming.

 

A slot that left me feeling frustrated & disappointed to be honest, but this is just my personal opinion, & maybe because I was so looking forward to it's arrival & being such a huge P.O.T.Apes fan as well.

 

In reflection , someone out there needs to make something new & original with game play that keeps the player interested & more importantly needs to make the player feel they at least have a chance of not necessarily winning, but at least getting good value for money.

 

You would think that in this ultra modern age it would not be to difficult a task, with all the technology available & companies such as NETENT , BARCREST, SCIENTIFIC, & many others to give players at least that.

 

I personally have been playing slots since before the time of such things as JPM's nudge double up deluxe - So yes over 40 years of slot playing experience, so have a history of playing knowledge to know more could & should be done.

You play at £2.00 a spin just to get a feel of the game?    Brave spins indeed!

Spintown, thanks a lot for your comprehensive review. 

For gamers who want to know more about this POTA game, your review should come in handy.

 

As for me, I'm not a new gamer, but not a veteran gamer as you are...but am not far from it, hehehe.

 

NetEnt games used to be my favourites...from Dead Or Alive, to Creatures From The Black Lagoon, to Jack and his Beanstalk, and many more...but nowadays, all these games can only pay peanuts but eat pumpkins! Hahaha. I have avoided almost all of NetEnt games now and only play on other providers games which could play and pay much better! 

[PLYD.LFT.RYT.N.CENTA]

Netent, must be getting feedback that their new-style games (and updated gameplay) are hated the world over.  They will totally alienate the slot-players, if they don't GET-A-GRIP, even I'm beginning to see the light.  I used to well love:

 

JATB

CFTBL

ALIEN ROBOTS

MYSTIC MAIDEN

even STARBURST when it first came out

 

Nowadays, I don't play a single NETENT game, they've well b*llsed them all up.  

 

Like when your Rolls-Royce falls apart,

 

Unbelievable.  NETENT?  Not for me thanks.

[PLYD.LFT.RYT.N.CENTA]

Oh I forgot, BLOODSUCKERS II is absolute trash, in my opinion.  That is a definite mistake.  Wow.  How can something so right, become something so wrong?

The reason for all these changes is very simple actually...game providers don't give a damn about what players think...all they want is to get more and more money from players...if not enough, they'll make the games pay lesser and lesser...maybe one day games would pay sand instead of peanuts!

All providers seems to lowered their paytables more and more.

 

Where are the slots that was created when paytables for highest paying symbol pay x5000 and 2nd highest x1000 as a standard.

 

Now these days on any slot, highest paying symbol pays x50 or lower for 5 of kind low paying symbol.

 

Very bad...

Don't like it? Don't play it. The choice is always yours. If I lose, I hit the booze and tomorrow is another sorrow

NetEnt = NotEnt for me now but hopefully i they will get better in the future

You took the words right out of my mouth!!

From reading your a few of your posts now you seem so bitter every time you write...maybe slots just aren't for you dear.

No not brave - Just bloody stupid in all honesty.

Glad you like the review, hope it helps you & other, but I suspect everyone will make their own judgements.

 

As to being a veteran gamer / player, I never thought of myself like that - ( Forgot I was getting old ) - just knew I had been playing a long time, & probably gained a lot of info &  experience over the years, not all good, but not all bad either. 

 

Personally I will always prefer to play what I like to call a "Stand Alone" machine, in an arcade, bingo hall, or similar, just old school I guess.

But do play both online extensively & on the dreaded F.O.B.T's.
