Stampede Slots
Betsoft's Stampede is a superb 3D slots machine that's ideal for players from the US and Australia.
The game's art is incredibly well-designed and the free spins feature is a great way to get some fun playing time. We played the game with a small bankroll of $250 and were impressed by the results.
The game's theme is inspired by the African continent and it features a beautiful backdrop. The music is also very good.
The game's medium variance 5-reel slot features over 800 ways to win and a return to player percentage of 95.26%. The RTP is a figure that's used by slot machine operators to measure the amount of money that they're able to win. However, it's not always a good idea to bank on this number due to the extensive historical data that the machines use.
Symbols
The game's symbols are divided into eight categories: animals, such as lions, elephants, and eagles; cards, such as the ones used in the scatters feature, which can land anywhere on the reels; and wilds, which can cover anywhere in the game. The top prize is a cash prize of 10,000 coins, and six of these elephants can appear anywhere on the screen at any time.
The Paytable or Help Screen shows the number of coins that the symbols offer and the number of times that the free spins feature is activated. The bet level and the coin level are also shown. As the number of coins that the symbols offer increases, the average bet per spin also goes up.
The Max Bet button is next to the Spin button, and it allows you to bet the amount that you want to win. The Double Up feature can double your winnings, and the Auto Play feature can award up to 100 spins. The average bet per spin is also shown, so it gives you an estimate of how much it'll cost you.
Wild
The wild symbol is a wooden pallet that has the word "wild" written on it. It substitutes for all other symbols in the game to create a winning combination.
Double Up
After winning, you can click the double up feature's button and it will double your winnings. You can also click on the "Heads" or "Tails" buttons to increase your winnings.
Free Spins
During the free spins feature, all of the wild symbols can get 3x or 2x their multiplier. This means that you can win up to 27x your bet if you win three times.
The free spins feature is activated when you hit three, four, or five scatter symbols. The free spins that you receive are based on the number of scatters that appear on the screen.
Three or four scatters will award you with 8 free spins, while four or five scatters will give you 20 free spins. On the other hand, if you hit five scatters, you'll receive a massive 800 coins.
The free spins feature is very impressive because the wilds have a variety of multiplier options. Multiple wilds can trigger a winning combination, which can increase your chances of winning.
Final Thoughts
The graphics are superb and the game's impressive free spins feature is a great way to get some fun playing time. Although the volatility might tempt some players, high roller fans will love this game.
At Bet Level 2, it took us around 100 spins to trigger the free spins feature. It's not often that a game has a base game that overshadows the free spins feature. The biggest win that we had during the main game was when we hit five scatters. This is a great addition to the Betsoft library.
