The online slot games keep coming thick and fast this year, and just like an angry t-rex we got a new one for players at our casino site that’s come in full of roar. The game is Raging Rex 2 and seems to be one of the higher paying slot machines we’ve seen recently. We’re talking 30,000x your stake as a possible maximum win amount, which dwarfs even the mighty reptile from prehistoric times. Play’n GO are about to let iGamers play a slots title that didn't provide the added value that players are always on the prowl for, so expect to see three possible free spins options, all of which we'll unpack, and more, in our latest review.
Raging Rex 2 doesn’t have a ‘2’ in it for no reason. It’s a sequel to the original Raging Rex, which obviously proved popular enough to garner a follow-up. We're not sure if much looks different from one to the other, but Play’n GO have changed a few symbols up and made some huge cash value modifications. The devices you'll be able to play this title on include desktop, tablet and mobile devices using iOS or Android, while mobile is probably the preferred option these days. In terms of the theme and graphics, it's all very respectable, while at times in the game, you'll see some slick animations such as the t-rex thundering up to the screen.
Most probably, the biggest change the casino software studio has made is to take the maximum possible win from 5,000x your bet in Raging Rex all the way up to 30,000x your stake in Raging Rex 2. Not often will you see online casino games serving up this high a maximum win, especially in online slots. Actually, winning it will take some luck, but there's always the possibility. The wagering window in which you can choose the size of your stake ranges from a minimum of 0.10 and goes all the way up to 100.00. The size you choose to wager is entirely your choice.
Play’n GO have changed the symbols somewhat in Raging Rex 2, although they still carry the same look and feel. The lower paying icons aren’t fossilised insects and creepy crawlies anymore, but rather fossilised dinosaur footprints, of which there are 4. There are then the higher paying symbols which are still a selection of dinosaurs, just not the same dinosaurs as in the first instalment.
There are 2 wild symbols in a t-rex and a baby t-rex, and these are the icons that can act as any symbol in the slot to possibly help form a winning combination. The only symbol they can’t substitute is the egg, which is the scatter.
This is another area where Play’n GO decided to upgrade on what was delivered in the original. Landing 3 or more egg scatter icons on the same spin will trigger a free spins feature. However, instead of 2 different spins games from which you could select, in Raging Rex 2, there are now three spins features.
You can select eight free spins in the Primal Fury option, and in this one the t-rex wild falls only as the wild but expands to cover the reel it lands on. T-rex is sticky when it lands, moving left or right with each spin after until it falls off the reels.
The second option is seven free spins in Hatchling Mania. Only the baby t-rex will fall as the wild and also expand plus be sticky. There's also the advantage of the wilds carrying 2x or 3x multipliers which get applied to wins.
The last option is Jurassic Mayhem. This sees only five free spins available, but both t-rex wilds and hatchling wilds will fall.
All in all you'll see that Raging Rex 2 isn't a bad slot at all. There's the option here to play it as a free game first in demo mode to see how the wilds work, but if you've heard enough to convince you that this is the casino game you've been waiting for, then enter the jungle for a potentially raging cash adventure.
