John Hunter and the Aztec Treasure

There’s an explorer wandering the jungles of Central America. The grandeur of his chivalry is matched only by his sublime facial hair, while he has the ability to uncover masses of treasure that is headed straight for your pocket. John Hunter and the Aztec Treasure online slot is hot off the software press and boasts great payout potential plus an exquisite free spins feature. Pragmatic Play is the iGaming studio behind this gallant new title, and we’re heading into the jungle to take a closer look.

Let’s first discuss the theme of the title. It has a similar feel to Book of Dead and Pragmatic Play have created a game in which the title character is dressed in identical fashion to Indiana Jones, leaving no doubt as to where they got their inspiration for John Hunter’s look and feel. As opposed to the slightly rugged Harrison Ford Pragmatic Play have given John a much thicker beard, and a slight Hispanic look. There are quite a few encounters with wild animals, however they are all there to assist with your payout potential. The graphics aren’t the best we’ve seen, however the game plays well on mobile devices and is also available to players using tablet devices.

There are a massive amount of paylines available when playing John Hunter and the Aztec Treasure. In total you can make use of 7,776 ways to win, which will definitely help in landing you multiple wins. This is a high volatility slot which means that there could be long periods where you go without actually winning anything, but the wins are pretty big when they happen. If this concerns you then the wagering limits start at a mellow £0.20 per spin, while the brazen players among us can place wagers of £100.00 per spin to achieve the highest possible payouts.

Feature Symbols

As the Aztecs resided in Central America for the most part you’ll notice that John Hunter does all his exploring in a jungle environment, and this leads to discovering a couple of wild beasts better not encountered unless you have the wilderness skills of our protagonist, barring one harmless bird. These creatures make up symbols of a higher value, and they consist of a toucan, a python and a black panther. These animals are joined by John Hunter – the highest value symbol in the game – in making up the “interesting symbols”. The remaining icons are Hunter’s hat, a flame torch, and playing cards J, Q, K, and A.

Stay vigilant for the wild icon appearing on reels 2, 3 and 4 which will substitute all symbols to create winning paylines. The only symbol the wild can’t substitute is the scatter icon, which is the circular Aztec symbol. This is a ticket to bonus play.

Bonuses and Jackpots

There’s a pretty decent free spins feature that can triggered in John Hunter and the Aztec Treasure. What you’ll need to do is land 3 or more scatter symbols anywhere on the reels on the same spin. Once triggered you are taken to a spinning wheel that will randomly award a number of free spins according to where the wheel stops. The breakdown is as follows:

• 3 scatter symbols – 5, 10, 15, 20 or 25 free spins
• 4 scatter symbols – 10, 15, 20 or 25 free spins
• 5 scatter symbols – 15, 20 or 25 free spins

There is a random multiplier applied to every spin in the feature, and these consist of multipliers up to 10x your bet. Pragmatic Play have decided to be generous here and award extra free spins should scatter symbols fall during the free spins. For landing 2 – 5 scatters during the feature you can grab up to 15 extra spins.
