Rex The Hunt Review
When it comes to shaking up an online slot format, Thunderkick has it nailed down. Instead of creating a generic stone age slot, Thunderkick came up with the fun-loving Rex The Hunt.
Throughout this slot, you follow a man trying to hunt down the mighty T-Rex. However, this is not an easy feat and therefore it may take some time. Once you manage to get there, you'll be able to secure glorious prizes of up to 4,000x the stake.
Thankfully, you'll have a variety of features to assist you in your journey such as stacked mystery symbols and bonus rounds. If you are looking for something dino-tastic, then you've come to the right slot.
Design
It seems that Thunderkick has officially established a unique style that is always associated with the developers. This involves cartoonish designs that involve an aspect of realism within the humans.
Despite this being a cartoonish design, there are so many little details on the screen that you cannot help but be blown away. On the reels, there is a mixture of dinosaurs and humans. Whenever you see these symbols, there are slight animations that bring them to life.
In the background, you'll find a prehistoric land filled with unique plants and trees. Throughout spins, you'll see slight movements in the distance which is amazing to see.
With the audio, there are ambient noises throughout paired with suspenseful music that makes you think that there is a dinosaur waiting around the corner for you. In terms of the design, this is another knock-out slot for Thunderkick.
Gameplay
If you are looking for something more innovative and revolutionary from Thunderkick, then best stick to Shifting Seas. However, that's not to say that the gameplay does not provide value in this slot but it's extremely simple.
In the base game, you can land mystery symbols which transform into the same one. Alongside wilds, that's all there is to the base game. When the bonus round is triggered, that's when these mystery symbols become sticky leading to even bigger wins.
Win Potential
Like a majority of Thunderkick slots, the RTP is above average in this game at 96.16%. It's not crazy high but it's better than most slots. Alongside this, there is a high volatility level leading to bigger wins but less frequently. We tend to recommend having a larger bankroll to sustain yourself.
However, you'll only be able to win up to 4,000x the stake. This is quite low by modern standards as we generally expect something between 5,000 to 10,000x the stake. That's not to say that you won't find big wins, but it'll never be anything over 4,000x stake.
Our Verdict
Unfortunately, we were a little underwhelmed by this slot and expected something more magical in terms of the gameplay. There are only mystery symbols and free spins - and that's about it for the gameplay.
Of course, the design is incredible and up to what we'd expect. If only the maximum win was higher, then Rex The Hunt could've been a contender for a great Thunderkick slot. However, it's worth mentioning that a good Thunderkick slot is still better than most average slot developers' games.
