Sizzling Kingdom™ Bison Review
The Sizzling Kingdom™ Bison slot is an action-packed wildlife and adventure game. With rich graphics and a fun soundtrack, as well as many different bonus features and chances to win, this slot game will appeal to the vast majority of slot fans.
While the wildlife theme is not exactly unique, Sizzling Kingdom™ Bison more than makes up for this lack of originality with some truly fresh and never-before-seen features.
Suitable for both high and low bettors, and with 4 different jackpots to reach for, this new release from Wazdan certainly offers dynamic gameplay across its 6 reels. We love the Hold the Jackpot bonus game, along with the chance to grab up to 100 free spins.
Design
Wazdan’s Sizzling Kingdom™ Bison is a vibrant and colourful game, with beautiful imagery and sharp, rich graphics. We especially like the wildlife symbols, including wolves, big cats, eagles and, of course, the bison himself. And the starry night forest background really brings this theme together. The soundtrack provides a calming atmosphere until you get to the bonus game where things get a bit more upbeat.
With so many bonus features and different functions, you might think that this game would be complicated to play and enjoy. However, with a very well-thought-out dashboard, as well as your Grand Jackpot levels running along the top of the screen, everything here is easily accessible and easy to understand. And if you need some extra help, the paytable and info pages are just a click away at the bottom of the game.
All in all, this is an extraordinarily well-designed game that’s a joy to play, even if the theme is a little bit unoriginal.
Gameplay
We had a lot of fun playing Sizzling Kingdom™ Bison. The base game is a little slow to get started, but once you begin to accrue those special symbols and get into the bonus features, things really start to heat up.
As with most slot games, your job is to match symbols left to right across the reels, but there are plenty of wilds, scatters and special images that can take you to the bonus rounds and free spins features as well. And given that the bonus rounds are where you can find the top 5,000x jackpot, you want to get there as quickly as possible!
The Wild Rampage bonus game is particularly fun, with bison running all over the place and charging toward you with wild eyes and tons of blue and gold coins. The free spins round is also exciting, and the icy blue coins are a particular treat, especially when the bison breathes blue fire down the reels!
Finally, the Hold the Jackpot bonus game is another wild ride with this very generous bison. Collect the Level Up symbols and fill the board with 30 bonus symbols to win the grand jackpot of 5,000x your stake in this incredibly lively and lightning-fast round. We especially like the jingling sounds of the gold and blue coins as they rack up your winnings!
Win Potential
The great thing about this game is that it is far more adaptable than most other slot games on the market. This means that you can maximise your win potential, if you are prepared to spend a little and crank up the volatility.
With 4 different jackpots on offer, you want to find those Level Up symbols as quickly as possible, to give you the chance to reach for that 5,000x top prize. But you can also play with the little chilli symbols at the bottom of the screen to increase your volatility from low to high. In doing this, you increase the likelihood of grabbing that massive big win. And of course, you can always play with the bet amount, to increase your line wins.
The only small disappointment we found with this game is that there are only 10 paylines in the base game, which is a little bit on the low side for our liking. Furthermore, they are fixed, which is odd for a game with so much variety and flexibility in other areas. That said, with 2 different bonus games, a fantastic free spins feature and tons of chances to go for that big 5,000x prize, Sizzling Kingdom™ Bison has the potential to bring home some serious bison bacon!
Not to mention, Sizzling Kingdom™ Bison gives you the chance to choose your own volatility, which means that this game is highly adaptable to each player’s individual style. Finally, with a Grand Jackpot of 5,000x your original stake, this is one of the most generous slot titles we’ve seen for a while, which is all the more impressive as it's not a progressive jackpot game.
Our Verdict
To sum up, we think this game is sure to be Wazdan’s next smash hit slot! The theme is well executed, the graphics are stunning and the gameplay is varied, without being overly complicated. Plus, being able to adjust your volatility is a great touch by Wazdan.
With just 10 fixed paylines, we were ready to be a little disappointed with this game. But we’re delighted to say that we couldn’t have been more wrong! The 2 bonus games are fantastic, and we love the extra-generous free spins round. And with 4 Grand Jackpots and a top prize of 5,000x your stake, we can’t wait to come back to Sizzling Kingdom™ Bison for round 2!
