Adventure Palace is a jungle-themed online slot game by Microgaming that has been around for a while. Unfortunately, the game’s graphics show a hint of age, but a classic always remains a must-play no matter how much time passes.
However, the question is: can Adventure Palace be considered a classic?
Well, that’s what we aim to find out in our slot review. We played the game; now read on below to find out what we thought!
Adventure Palace has a standard RTP percentage for an online slot game at 96.1%. It is a low volatility game, so you should see some wins regularly. Generally, low volatility and high RTP are a great combination if you want to build funds incrementally.
Also, it is important to note you won’t win massive progressive jackpots in Adventure Palace, but you will at least get a better chance to win overall. So, you need to weigh up what’s more important to you – winning or winning big when you do win.
Design
Adventure Palace is a 5×3 slot game with 9 paylines. The lower number of paylines makes the game seem harder to win, but you’ll be surprised at how often you at least get your original bet back on a spin. It is important to note that paylines are not adjustable – you have to play with them all on.
In terms of visuals, Adventure Palace looks similar to an educational video game about animals developed in the 1990s. The 2D images are illustrated well-enough but aren’t particularly striking. Overall, you shouldn’t have a hard time looking at the images. However, this game probably didn’t win any awards for groundbreaking achievements in visual design.
Gameplay
Here is all you need to know about the gameplay in Adventure Palace:
Symbols
As mentioned above, Adventure Palace is a jungle-themed slot game. So, it should come as no surprise that the theme-related symbols are all animals complemented by traditional poker symbols.
Animals are more on the Asian side as opposed to African. You’ll see tigers, cobras, Indian elephants, and rhesus monkeys spinning across the reels, among other animals.
The Palace in the Jungle symbol is the game’s scatter, whereas the Indian elephant is the game’s wild symbol.
Bet Range
Adventure Palace has a pretty small bet range. The minimum bet is 0.09 per spin, and the maximum bet is $45 per spin. The coin range starts at 0.01 and goes all the way up to 1. We don’t think that this is enough to meet the needs of high roller players, but it should sufficiently meet low and medium rollers’ needs.
Bonus Features
There are three major bonus features in Adventure Palace:
Free Spins – land three of the scatters on the reels, and you will activate the free spins mode. You will get 15 free spins, and all of your wins accrued during the mode will be tripled.
Wild Multiplier – if the elephant symbol helps you finish a winning combination, your overall win will be multiplied.
Gamble Feature – every time you win, you will get a chance to double your money with a game of cards. Pick a card with the right suit or color, and you will instantly increase your winnings.
Adventure Palace Final Rating
So, we don’t really know why Adventure Palace is such a popular game. We guess that sometimes there is an appeal in simplicity as the game doesn’t do anything new. It’s your standard video slot with a free spins mode and little else in the way of novel extras.
Overall, Adventure Palace is still fun to play for a while, so we think the game is fully deserving of a 3.5 out of 5 rating.
