Jumanji Slot Review

What features does Jumanji have?

Like the board game it is based on, NetEnt’s Jumanji slot has several features that shake up the flow of the gameplay. 

Random Triggers

At any time during normal gameplay, one of four random effects may trigger to change the behaviour of the reels:

• Monsoon Wilds: Turns 1 or 2 reels into wilds.
• Monkey Mayhem: Shuffles all symbols to guarantee at least one winning combination.
• Sticky Vines: Locks winning combinations into place and triggers a respin. Continues until there are no more winning combinations formed or the entire grid is filled.
• Wild Stampede: Adds between 4 to 9 wild symbols on the grid. 

Board Game

The core of Jumanji is, of course, the board game from which the movie—and the slot game—gets its name. Landing 3 or more board game pieces on the reels (which serve as scatters) will activate the board game and give you 6 to 8 dice rolls depending on the number of scatters you land. You will then be taken to an adapted version of the board game, where your dice rolls will translate into steps on the board. Landing on certain tiles on the board will award you with money payouts, extra rolls, or additional bonus features.

Theme, Design, and Audio

Jumanji is the story of a board game that magically immerses its players into its jungle-themed world, challenging them with a variety of hazards that spill over into the real world. 

The slot game adaptation of this popular film is visually beautiful, from the dramatic opening sequence to the game interface, which features a top-down view of the Jumanji board. When combined with the soundtrack's thundering percussion, the feeling is almost identical to being engaged in the film and playing the mysterious, magical game of Jumanji yourself, hoping for a five or eight to roll.
