Neon Jungle
Neon Jungle is a loud, brash and, of course, bright bonanza of a slot game from Iron Dog Studio and distributed by NextGen of Starmania slot and Foxin’ Wins fame.
The idea is that you are in the Neon Jungle, that little known spot, which is a mixture of tough city streets and an actual jungle- now I didn’t say that this is the kind of slot that crops up every day!
This game comes with a whole new idea, where a glowing neon loop which appears steers the action, so get those eyes honed for a whole new kind of neon adventure!
Look and Feel
Here we are in the wild and wonderful world of the Neon Jungle, where there’s a distinct flavour of the 1980, the heyday of neon and party fun. This slot is played against a bright and bold background of a cityscape with a jungle just behind the reels, which hover transparently against this rainbow world of neon and plants! It makes the Fruit Spin slot from NetEnt look dark, and that’s going some.
The soundtrack is great fun, an uproariously fun combo of super-fast tribal electronic music and wild jungle and urban sounds a la 80’s – a perfect mix-tape for this mixed up hybrid of a feel good slot game. If you want chilled music head to the Aloha slot because the vibe at Neon Jungle is decidedly upbeat!
Game Play
Neon Jungle is a 3 row, 5 reel and 20 paylines party of a slot game.
The higher value icons are a parade of jungle animals and plants of course, including a purple flower, a florescent green butterfly, a blue frog, a parrot and a tiger. The lower value icons are Ace through Jack of the card deck in attractive neon lights.
The Wild is a monkey and this substitutes for all icons except the Scatter and Free Spins and Bonus symbols, a snail and pink flamingo. The Scatter is naturally a neon green chameleon!
You need to keep your eyes open for an eye-catching neon loop which comes to land on random icons during play. This bright little friend serves a handy purpose, if it lands on a Scatter, it generously awards 250 coins prize and if it lands on a winning line it turns the win into a x4 multiplier- now that’s something to make you glow!
When this little glowing neon loop lands on the snail icon it awards a nifty six free spins (but these can’t be retriggered).
If Lady Luck is smiling on your game and that glowing loop lands on that classy icon, the pink flamingo, then you trigger a side feature called Keno. This side game gives you the chance to pick ten from numbers 28 – or it can do this at random for you- and then you start the game and the game picks 15 numbers, each number match has a different prize value up to a sparkly 20,000 for 10 matches- its eye-watering stuff!
This is a game that’s not only pretty but practical; it works across different devices so you can join the neon party on the move!
Conclusion
Neon Jungle is a roller coaster ride of high energy slot play and the right kind of look and vibe to bring a technicolour party to you.
I love the novelty element with the neon loop dictating the action, as long as you can get that bright little pal to show up, (it took me a while to get it to show), then Neon Jungle is a potentially lucrative slot with a party feel, and some neat features that will have me coming back for more than its bright and breezy vibe.
