Stampede Slot

Another game from Betsoft released in 2017 but the with the graphics not being disappointing at all, it has 5 reels and 1024 paylines which is relatively low keeping in mind that there are similar games having much more paylines. Lately, I have been playing a lot of Betsoft games because the site I play on really wants me to play them by recommending me them every single day and I rarely decline.

Symbols on the reels are eagles, giraffes, leopards, zebras, gazelles, wilds up to 3x(wooden pallet), cards from 10 to Ace, scatters savanna tree and elephants. The latter symbol pays the top cash prize and can land as stacked on the reels. The last one is an elephant and for sure the best one that can pay an enormous amount of money even on the base game so keep watch on them.

3 scatter symbols (savanna tree) will result in free spins being triggered to be exact x3 8free spins, x4 12 free spins,x5 20 free spins and there are wilds that can multiply wins by x2 and x3 during free spins and I had really nice wins getting them all of the sudden think of them as a game-changer. Double up option in this game hasn't been kind to me and I couldn't get any big win so after some time I decided to stop picking head or tails and just collect every win and it paid off after which I started triggering the feature and getting some nice wins, it has crazy potential with all those x2,x3 wilds the only thing I wish they made is getting at least +1,2 free spins for 2 scatters on the reel while playing bonus round but at least free spins are re-triggerable.

Highly recommend a game if you are a fan of having a nice chance to get wins playing the base game even with 95.26% it can pay really well.

The amount of bait I received from this game has really made me angry until I got free spins multiple times by playing for more than an hour to receive 4 of them and two times there was 0-1x wins.

This slot was released by Betsoft and is the copy of the famous raging rhino. Now many other providers have copies of this slot, but this one by Betsoft has 1024 ways where other have 4096. I think that’s really low and clearly cannot see the massive potential here, as in x1000 wins, however I hit a decent couple of x100 wins.

I used to love playing on the GameTech group for big deposit bonuses and Betsoft is lucky one of the providers to be playable with bonus funds. I saw stampede as newly added slot and wanted to try it. When I checked the pay table, I noticed this slot plays like Raging Rhino and buffalo blitz and had to give it a try.

Although the ways are less, but the pay table is standard as the original slots where this type of a slot was founded basically. Upon launching the slot, I saw the game spins for a minimum bet was $0.40 per spin. Remember these slots can provide great base game wins.

The elephant is the most lucrative symbol giving you x8.5 your total stake. There is also a wild symbol that lands on reels 2 – 5 and they substitute for everything except the scatter.

Land 3 tree scatter symbols and you will enter the free spins round. 8 spins are awarded with more spins whenever you retrigger the feature. Now the during free spins wild turns into a multiplier. You can benefit of x2, 3 or x4 wild symbols. Not sure the maximum ways to win, but you get unlimited retriggers. Don’t get excited about free spins as this is Betsoft, and most session do not pay well. I actually feel the base game hits more and better than free spins. Have been a victim myself as well.

Overall I think this is a good slot, but they could have made better with design, graphics etc.

When I first looked at this Stampede game from BetSoft, it instantly reminded me of my favourite Playtech game, Safari Heat, especially that Scatter symbol of a single tree with a sunset background. That caught my interest and made me looked further into the game. However, that’s about all the similarities are between the two, because the Wild symbols in Stampede do not pay for themselves, unlike in Safari Heat, but they carry 2x or 3x multipliers instead, thereby multiplying wins up to a maximum of 27x. That looked good and interesting to me, so I decided to give the game a try.

Playing with 5 reels, 4 rows, and with 1024 ways to win, the minimum starting bet of 0.40 is a little too high for my liking, but that’s not too bad. Getting 3, 4 or 5 Scatter symbols would award 8, 12 or 20 free spins, also not to my liking actually, but the maximum possible multiplier of 27x certainly makes up for the lesser amount of free spins awarded. Anyway, that’s only good if you can get 3 Wild symbols in a winning combination during the free spins, otherwise, the wins may only see a 2x or a 3x multiplier most of the time.

Symbols wise, I would say that all symbols have extremely low win values, but these should be acceptable enough for a 1024 ways to win setup. For example, getting 5 Scatters would pay only 20x the total bet, whilst getting 5 Elephants, the top paying regular symbol, would pay only 7.5x. The maximum possible win is indicated as 769,500 coins, at maximum bet, which works out to be 3847.5x the bet size – a good one nonetheless.

Having said all that, my one and only play on this Stampede game went quite well, if I may say so, even though I could only achieve a 135x win. This is still a lot better than so many other new games that I have tried and played, where even a 100x win would be so damn blardy hard to get! With some games, I couldn’t even get a low 40x win, so you can imagine how such games would really play and pay, if not disastrously!

I may play more of this Stampede game later on, simply because the potentials for getting bigger wins are definitely there – it just need many more spins, many more tries, and much more starting money, hehehe.
