About Raging Rhino
Raging Rhino is English for something like "very angry rhino"” The rhino you find on the reels is certainly clearly angry, but that's just fine. When the giant beast feels like galloping over the reels, you can win big!
This castle has a very special design. Normally, video slots have five reels, but Raging Rhino has six. Moreover, the rows are not less than four in number. When a game screen gets this big, it automatically becomes quite tricky to draw lines across the reels. Sure have WMS / Scientific Games a bunch of slots with up to 100 paylines, but in Raging Rhino there is instead profit routes . In fact, there are as many as 4096 of them.
With win paths, you don't have to hope for identical icons to end up in certain positions. Just make sure they get on adjacent reels and you'll take home a win! With the Rhino, two in a row is actually enough. For the rest of the symbols you need to get three in a row.
Stakes and winnings
To have all 4096 winning ways in play, you must bet at least$4. Of course, you can bet much more than that if you want. Simply click on the multiplier button or select from a screen to increase the bet. You can play with 600$ at most. Surprisingly, there is no autoplay feature. The only parameter you can influence is the sound!
WMS, which is now part of Scientific Games, has its background in land-based casino and Raging Rhino was a land-based slot from the beginning. That's one reason why Raging Rhino's RTP is slightly lower than the online average. Over time, you can expect to approach the theoretical payback of 95.91%.
The volatility of Raging Rhino is, as in the majority of Vegas slots , of the higher kind. Do you like to take risks to win big? Then Raging Rhino is a grain of gold. If you are more of a fan of, for example, NetEnt's low-to medium-volatile slots, then you should stay away. The maximum win is a formidable 2.5 million New Zealand $ onor and you can actually win that on a single spin!
Symbols
With the many positions and the fact that the game pays in 4096 ways, it has been possible for WMS to deposit a little more symbols than usual. There are eleven winning symbols and two special symbols.
The rhino is the symbol you should look out for the most. It is the one that pays the best and, in addition, it can come stacked. The gorilla and leopard only pay slightly less while the next two symbols in descending order are a$okodil and a rodent of some sort (we don't actually know what that is!). The set of high win symbols is complemented by a collection of poker card symbols.
The special symbols are a wild and a scatter. The Joker is a beautiful image of the Serengeti Savannah at sunset. The Scatter is a diamond.
Functions
It is clear that the developers behind the slots are of the opinion that the 4096 win ways are a feature in their own right. In addition, there are stacked symbols (the rhino), jokers and free spins.
Wilds
Jokers are very useful in games with winning ways. After all, a single joker can be enough to help create really long (and many) winning combinations. As I said, it is the image of the Savannah that makes up the joker of the game. It can land on reels 2, 3, 4 and 5.
Free spins
The game's scatter shows a diamond framed by a neat pattern in gold. When this little rascal appears at least three times, you win free spins. The more scatters, the more free rounds according to the schedule below. In addition, you always get a cash win.
- 3 scatter symbols = 5 free spins + 2x bets
- 4 scatter symbols = 8 free spins + 10x the bet
- 5 scatter symbols = 20 free spins + 50x bet
- 6 scatter symbols = 50 Free Spins + 1000X the bet!
In the free spins round you have nice chances to win very big. Each joker that creates a win gives you a multiplier of 2x or 3x on all wins. This small detail can make a very big difference.
In addition, there are good chances to reactivate the function. For that$, only two extra scatters are applied. For example, if you hit three extra scatters in a spin in the bonus round, you win eight extra free rounds.
Summary
We can only say that Raging Rhino is a success. This slot is in full swing at land-based casinos all over the world, and among WMS slots online, there is no title that even comes close to this slot in terms of popularity.
Probably it is the mixture of the high risk (chance of big wins!) and the simple game idea that makes Raging Rhino such an incredibly popular slot. It is quite possible to win many hundreds, if not several thousand, times the bet on one spin, and this, of course, is attractive to many. Try it yourself and see what you think. Use our demo game to test play without risk.
A good question is whether it is possible to play Raging Rhino on mobile and tablet. The answer is yes. This slot works on both Android and iOS devices. However, the game loads quite slowly if you don't have wifi or 4G.
As a curiosity, we can finally mention that the New Zealand game developer Thunderkick has” borrowed " quite a bit from the game in its slot Pink Elephants. Should you get caught up in Raging Rhino, but sometimes feel like you want an alternative, then Thunderkick's creations can work perfectly.
