Another PartyCasino exclusive, this time from renowned developers Yggdrasil. Credited with creating some of the best slots in the world, in terms of gameplay, graphics and cinematics, Yggdrasil have done it again with Time Travel Tigers, a quirky slot based around the character Dr. Tigerstein. Unlike your stereotypical tiger, this guy is in fact also an accomplished physicist – complete with a time machine, standing by to transport you back through the ages.
The theme of time travel runs through this game, influencing everything from the symbols on the board to the bonus features you can pick up along the way. Coupled with the standard premium quality graphics you’d expect from this developer, along with some significant win potential, Time Travel Tigers is definitely worth taking for a few spins.
The game is setup across five reels, as is the standard construction for modern video slots. Yggdrasil do sometimes like to experiment with reel structures, but fortunately, they’ve focused their creativity through other elements of this game. There are 25 paylines written across the reels, which stand four positions high. Line up combinations of three or more matching symbols on neighbouring positions from left to right to win a payout, full details of which are available in the paytable.
There are symbols representing middle ages Europe, ancient Egypt and a futuristic world, which tied in nicely with the whole time travel theme. The lower value positions are made up of high card symbols, represented by suit symbols for diamonds, hearts, clubs and spades. There are also a couple of bonus symbols you’ll encounter, but we’ll discuss them and their roles in more detail shortly.
In terms of the betting action, you can get involved from just £0.25 per spin. At the top end, spins of £125.00 mean there are some seriously big wins available, especially when you consider the jackpot of 750x.
The winning potential gets better when you notice the RTP – set at 96.3%, well beyond the 95% threshold that marks out a slot as about-average. In Time Travel Tigers, you’ve got a return to player percentage that goes way above and beyond, meaning you’re up against a slimmer house edge than in many other slots. All the more reason to try your luck with the doctor and his time machine!
The wild symbol in Time Travel Tigers is a golden tiger – it feels like nothing else would do for this tiger themed slot. Find the golden tiger, and you’ll replace any missing symbols to make up combinations in the usual way. The wild is simply a wildcard symbol – it’s anything you need it to be to earn you a payout. They aren’t always helpful and can’t guarantee a win, but in most cases, the more wilds on any spin the better.
The Free Spins symbol is the main bonus symbol, and you need three or more of these on any single spin to lead to the free spins bonus – a combination of wilds and multipliers, depending on which era of time is triggered.
The free spins bonus is divided into four eras: Prehistoric, Egyptian, Medieval, and Future, awarding escalating prizes in that order. Prehistoric awards between 5-15 free spins with a 5x multiplier, plus up to 20 Adjacent Wilds. Egyptian awards anywhere from 6-18 free spins depending on the number of symbols triggering the round, plus a multiplier of 4x, with up to 20 Diagonal Wilds.
The Medieval feature delivers 7-21 free spins with an up to 3x multiplier and up to 20 Cluster Wilds, while the Future era provides 12-36 free spins and up to 20 Random Wilds at a 2x multiplier.
The wilds do exactly what they say on the tin, giving you more chances to land combinations from adjacent, diagonal and cluster reel positions. Land more free spins symbols during the feature, and you can retrigger the bonus, in the hope of an even bigger potential feature win.
Time Travel Tigers is an engaging game to play, with a winning combination of great design and gameplay matched with some impressive bonus features. If you get lucky, your time travels through this game could well be lucrative – especially with the massive (and retriggerable) free spin bonus round.
