Neon Jungle

At the intersection of wildlife and nightlife lies Rio, a city famous for every kind of vivacity. In Neon Jungle, relative newcomer Iron Dog Studios has released a slot as filled with features and colors as the city itself. Glowing neon lights can launch any of three separate bonus features or add a quadruple win multiplier on any spin.

Theme

This slot is a paean to the great city of Rio de Janeiro, and the beauty of the night skyline provides the slot’s background. Gaming symbols include flowers in bloom, green butterflies, blue tree frogs, bright parrots, and severe tigers, with howling monkeys acting as wild, green lizards acting as scatter, and pink flamingos triggering the Keno Lite bonus feature. In a nice bit of irony, pink snail symbols trigger free spins. Neon iterations of the playing cards ace through jack act as lower-value symbols. A pink neon halo may surround gaming symbols at random, adding a quadruple win multiplier to the mix and occasionally triggering bonus features. When it lights up the scatter symbol, 250 coins are awarded. A thumping bass line adds to the feel of a big night out.

Betting Options and Functions

Iron Dog Studios may not yet be a household name in the gaming industry, but this Sussex-based firm makes a strong case for itself with this game’s design and specs. The bet size is set simply from 0.20–100.00 times the betting currency per spin. There are 20 fixed paylines, each paying from left to right only. Autoplay is available for up to 99 spins at a time, with optional built-in stops for bankroll swings or single wins above a certain size, bonus features, or even any single win. Most interesting to many players will be the outstanding theoretical return to player ratio of 96.13%%.

Features

Neon Jungle is positively packed with bonus features. Each is ushered in by a unique gaming symbol – features will begin either when three or more of those symbols appear on the reels, or when the neon glimmer circle surrounds one of these icons.
The green lizard scatter symbol awards 250 coins to players, while the snail symbol awards six free spins. The pink flamingo triggers the Keno Lite bonus feature. Players are taken to a separate gaming screen, where they choose (or assign at random) ten potentially winning numbers out of a total of 28. Hit all ten to win an astonishing 20,000 coins.

Our Take

Iron Dog Studios really puts itself on the map with this slot. Neon Jungle has it all: beautiful design to go with a unique theme, plenty of bonus features, and excellent RTP to give players their money’s worth. It will be interesting to see what this company does next.
