Savannah Fortune

Most studios love making African slots because it’s a great setting for both fun and playful games, as well as adventures full of high-risk action. Quickspin’s foray into the animal kingdom typically includes jungles and oceans, and Savannah Fortune might as well be the very first savannah slot for Quickspin. Which is marvelous!

The safari game is a 5×3 slot with 10 paylines in total. Don’t be discouraged by that, because odd as it may sound, the game is highly volatile with a 30,000x win capacity. Quite a lot of power hiding in the grasslands, right?

Some of the key things you’ll encounter in the game are expanding Wilds and multiplying reels. Wilds grow to cover entire reels, while Multipliers add pizzazz to the experience. The main game feature is the Free Spins round, unlockable either with Scatters or Buy Feature options. The math model is highly volatile with a 96.27% RTP, meaning that the savannah is a very dangerous place for those who are not adhering to a strict bankroll.

For what it’s worth, we expected a fun and playful game that showcases the wildlife residing in the African grasslands.

However, Savannah Fortune came out with a bit more grit than we expected. There’s a 5×3 grid setup with a traditional 10-payline structure. To win, you will need at least 3 matching icons on a paylines, with 5 OAK providing the highest possible payouts.

One thing that we must note is that the game carries high volatility. What this means is that you should expect potentially long stretches between significant wins. But once they hit, you could bag a solid payout. The RTP is 96.27%, which is solid for a highly volatile slot such as this one.

To play Savannah Fortune, you can place between $0.10 and $100 as wagers per round.

Regarding payouts – the symbol set is split into low-rank and high-rank icons. As usual, J-A card ranks are low-paying symbols and gemstones (sapphires, emeralds, rubies, and diamonds) are medium-paying symbols. The Wild Lion serves double duty, because it’s both the wild symbol and a premium symbol in its own right.

Card suits pay 1x-2.50x for 5 matching icons on a paylines. Gems pay 3x to 7.50x, while the Wild Lions can pay up to 10x for 5 Wilds on the grid.

The max win reaches an impressive 30,000x the bet, which places the game among the more generous slots in Quickspin’s library.

Here’s an overview of all features included in the Savannah Fortune slot.

Wild Lion Symbol

The Wild Lion is the star of Savannah Fortune. As a Wild, It substitutes for all symbols, which can help you create winning combinations across the grid.

Wild Lions also always expand to cover the entire reel when they land. It does not matter which position they initially landed on when the reels stopped spinning.

Besides being a Wild, the Lions are also Scatters. When 3 or more Wild Lions land anywhere on the reels, they trigger 10 Free Spins.

Free Spins and Hunting Reels

As expected, Free Spins are triggered by Wild Lions (the game’s Wild and Scatter and Premium).

At the start of the feature, all reels where triggering Wild Lions landed become Hunting Reels for the entire duration of the feature.

During free spins, any time a Wild Lion lands on a Hunting Reel, that reel’s multiplier increases by +1 starting from the next spin. The multiplier continues growing throughout the feature each time another Wild Lion lands on that particular reel.

Any win that includes a Wild Lion is multiplied by that reel’s current multiplier. Multiple multipliers are multiplied together, not just added together, too.

You cannot retrigger the feature but you can get extra Spins mid-round. How so? Well, each time a Hunting Reel’s multiplier reaches a multiple of 5 (5x, 10x, 15x, 20x, etc.), you are awarded an extra +2 free spins.

Feature Buy

Savannah Fortune offers two Feature Buy options. If you want immediate access to Free Spins, you can purchase either the standard version which costs 80x or the premium one that costs 200x.

For 80x, you get Spins that will feature at least 3 Wild Lions, while paying 200x gets you at least 4 or more Wild Lions.

Savannah Fortune works seamlessly across all devices, including smartphones and tablets. The 5×3 grid and 10-payline structure translate perfectly to smaller screens, and the expanding Wild Lions remain visually clear and impactful on mobile displays. You can play through mobile browsers or downloaded casino apps, with all features and functionality fully intact. The game’s subtle visual details remain appreciable even on mobile screens.

Theme, Visuals & Sound

The overall aesthetic of the game won’t blow anyone away with flashy graphics or cutting-edge animation. And it’s not supposed to – Quickspin meant it as a handsome, well-executed game whose looks complement the gameplay perfectly. Less is more, and Quickspin knows that.

Our Experience Playing Savannah Fortune

We liked it, but we don’t consider it the best game out there. It’s not a beacon of invention, but it’s more than decent, especially in its genre. And best of all, it does not take itself too seriously, which is something we appreciate from studios and newer games.

Now, let’s talk gameplay. The base game is quiet. There’s not much going on in there, except for a few occasional Wild Lions. The game is clearly saving its energy for free spins, the main feature.

Free spins with Hunting Reels are where the magic happens. It features Multipliers, Wild Lions, and as you get the Spins going, there’s always something happening on the grid while the round lasts.

The 30,000x max win feels like a dream. We say a dream because we honestly don’t see it being hit anytime soon. It’s great as a possibility, but we recommend picking a lower stake and playing for the sake of fun, not profits.

And if you decide to try the game’s Buy Bonus, make sure first that it’s allowed in your market. It’s not available everywhere (like the UK) so it might be smart to check before playing.
