The Wombat says: we’re all pleased to see that NetEnt’s Jumanji slot is themed on the 1995 blockbuster movie of the same name.
You’ll find the reels are set on the actual Jumanji board game – so expect plenty of action on the reels!
This game has heaps of features- compare it to other NetEnt games like the Swipe and Roll slot, and you’ll be struggling to believe that they were built by the same designers. Let’s get cracking, and take a look.
Look and Feel
It’s hats off to NetEnt for coming up with another impressive-looking game with sharp graphics and an immersive soundtrack that will make you feel like you are really in Jumanji!
We’d say that this game is every bit as stunning as the Platooners slot launched by Elk Studios a little later.
The reels are set on the Jumanji board and the subtle touches like a chandelier swinging in the breeze, and the vines that creep right across the screen give it that little something extra.
Jumanji Slot Game Play
The Jumanji slot is a five-reel game with 36 pay-lines and reels that are set out like a board game laid on the ground in a 3-4-5-4-3 reel formation.
This puts Jumanji straight into that category we like to call the Mega Slot. Other examples include the Diamond Mine slot and Fortunium. These games have more reels, more rows and more added extras!
Your symbols on the reels include the lion, the rhino, the crocodile and the pelican as the high-paying symbols and the standard playing cards J, Q, K & A as the lower-value symbols.
The wild in the Jumanji slot is the gold ‘Wild’ icon, and it will do the age-old job of all wilds to substitute for all other symbols on the reels to form extra winning combinations ( bar the scatter symbol).
The Scatter icon is the Jumanji Box scatter – it’ll come in handy so keep your eyes peeled for it.
Free Spins and Bonus Features
There are eight of these bad boys; four randomly triggered base game bonuses and four different free spins features:
Random Bonuses
Sticky Vines
A re-spin bonus where winning symbols are held in place.
Monsoon Wilds
Up to 2 reels will become wild.
Monkey Mayhem
Symbols are shuffled to create an extra winning combo.
Wild Stampede
The crazy rhino will stampede across the reels adding up to nine wild symbols.
Bonus Board
Trigger off this very cool Free Spins game by landing three or more of the Jumanji slot box scatter symbols anywhere on the reels. Now you’ll get six, seven or eight rolls of the dice (depending on how many Scatters you got).
These rolls will move your token around the board where you will try and reach the end while landing as many of these bonuses as you can:
Vines Free Spins
Ten free spins with the Sticky Vines feature active.
Monsoon Free Spins
Seven free spins with Monsoon Wilds.
Monkey Free Spins
Six free spins with the Monkey Mayhem feature.
Stampede Free Spins
Five free spins with Wild Stampede active.
Mystery Feature
A random number of free spins, up to 10x your stake or two extra rolls of the dice.
Coin Win
A cash prize.
Extra Rolls
An additional roll of the dice.
Play the Jumanji Slot on Mobile
NetEnt has supercharged the Jumanji slot for mobile, tablets and desktops. This means the game comes with great graphics and entertaining gameplay no matter where you spin the reels.
Conclusion
Along with the likes of Jurassic World and Jurassic Park, NetEnt’s Jumanji slot does a very good job of translating the original epic into an immersive slot that is a lot of fun to play.
With awesome graphics and an impressive selection of bonuses on offer, this gets a big ‘thumbs up’ for us here at Wombat Towers.
Wombat score: 5/5
FAQs
-
What is the maximum win on the Jumanji slot?
You can win up to 504x your total bet from a single spin. That’s not in the super big league, but remember that this is a medium variance slot.
-
You have said there are many bonuses in this game. How many exactly?
The Jumanji slot is packed full with nine bonus features: four random features, plus a Board Game that comes with four free spins bonuses plus a Mystery bonus. You can’t say fairer than that.

What's your favourite feature?
That has to be Wild Stampede. Just like in the movie, when the warning goes out: “It’s a stampede!”, you’ll see the bookcase destroyed and a herd of rhinoceroses rush across the reels. The rhinos leave between four to nine wilds in their wake.
