Jungle Trouble slot review (Playtech)
Playtech slots are very popular, mainly amongst slot players in the United Kingdom and have been almost always primarily ignored on the European continent. Precisely why, we can’t really pinpoint. We noticed that Playtech slots always had medium to high variance and were technically not at the same high level as – for example – Netent, Quickspin or Thunderkick slots.

More Details
Jungle Trouble is a surprisingly fun online slot by Playtech with a crazy Jungle theme, 15 paylines and 3 unique free spin bonuses
The reels were always a bit jerky, and the graphics were under par, as if the slot games were still under development, in some Beta test phase. A shame, actually, because Playtech slots always have exhilarating bonus games and fun themes. So obviously, there’s no lack of creativity.
Jungle Trouble gameplay and features
Let’s start with the most important thing: the payout rate and the variance of Jungle Trouble. We have nothing to pick on, on both counts. The payout rate is excellent at 96.04%, and we estimate the variance to be medium, also excellent.
The Jungle Trouble slot has 15 paylines and bets ranging from a minimum of $€ 0.15 to a maximum of $€ 90 per spin. The theme revolves around the crazy antics of a naughty young boy who roams around the jungle and gets in all kinds of mischief with his friends.
Visually this is a very accomplished slot with beautiful graphics, fun animations, and the necessary Big Win and Super Big Win signs.
The Coconuts take centre-stage
There is a special reel for the coconuts. These are the scatter symbols activating the bonus round. Every coconut dropping on reel 2, 3 or 4, increases the wild- multiplier with +1, up to a maximum of 5 x. As soon as the wild multiplier is used with a winning combination, it is reset to 0.
The tigers and elephants are the highest paying symbols – they are worth 1,000 and 750 coins, respectively, with a combination of 5 identical ones on an active payline. That adds up quite nicely. Besides the jungle animals, we also see the traditionally lower value symbols 10, J, Q, K and A return, good for 50 to 125 coins with five the same ones.
The free spin bonuses of Jungle Trouble: time to relax, sit back, and enjoy!
Three or more scattered coconuts activate the free spin bonus:
- 3 coconuts = 10 free spins
- 4 coconuts = 15 free spins
- 5 coconuts = 20 free spins
Choose your free spin bonus
After that, you get to choose which free spin bonus you want to play:
Multiplier Free Games (High risk)
The coconut multipliers value can go up to 10 x
High Win Free Games (Medium Risk)
All low-value symbols are removed from the game for bigger wins
Nudging Wild free Games (Low Risk)
Wilds drop down a reel every spin with free respins.
You can win extra free spins by spinning extra coconuts: 2 coconuts already give you 3 additional free spins, and more coconuts give you more free spins, up to a maximum of 20.
Our verdict on the Jungle Trouble video slot
We had a grand time with Jungle Trouble and managed to grab a few very lucrative bonus rounds. A fabulous title by Playtech, and we hope more of this quality are to follow this one.
With this slot title, Playtech has proved that they certainly can develop slot games at the highest level.
3.8 out of 5 stars.
