Jaguar Mist ™ Introduction
Jaguar Mist ™ is the latest in a long line of Aristocrat games that has made a trip down the well-trodden path from land-based game to online game. Aristocrat rarely mess these conversions up and they definitely have not done so here.
The graphics are slick (with the Jaguar itself particularly beautifully drawn) and are based around jungle wildlife which could well be Amazonian origin as there appears to be Aztec-style medals, exotic frogs, rain forest backdrops and pink river dolphins on display.
The game play is smooth and the sounds are nice (standard Aristocrat Casino background, rather than Amazon jungle) and add in the fact that this is an Xtra Reel Power ™ game and you know you are going to be in for an exciting ride!
You can wager from as little as $0.01, but we would recommend betting from $0.40 per spin as your lowest level, anything less and you don't get the full excitement of the Reel Power ™ feature. $0.40 per spin allows you to have the x40 Reel Cost and a bet per Reel of $0.01 - it's the best way to experience the game. For you high-rollers out there you can bet up to $40 per spin by adjusting the 'Bet Per Reel' up to $1.
Theme
Set far deep into the amazing South American jungle, this game has a pleasant wildlife theme that centres around one of nature’s most enigmatic creatures, the jaguar. The jaguar is the third largest cat species in the world, after the lion and the tiger, and the only spotted big cat that is native to the Americas. Known for her stealth, her beautiful spotted coat and for being an awesome predator, the jaguar has long been revered in human culture, notably by those of the Mayan and Aztec civilisations who lived alongside them for millennia. With declining numbers due to human expansion and subsequent loss of the jaguar’s natural habitation, as well as poaching, it’s only right that this beautiful creature is immortalised in a pokie game, reminding us of her beauty and the need to conserve these beautiful animals. The game also celebrates other wildlife from the South American jungle, including the freshwater dolphin, spectacled owl, poisonous dart frog and the parrot. It also nods to Aztec cultures with the inclusion of a Aztec coin. The game's subgenre is part of a larger classification of pokie games called Nature, which is one of the most popular and common themes, both at online casinos and in land-based machines.
How the Game Plays
The symbols in Jaguar Mist are are stacked on the the reels up to x3, with the centre reel having the single wilds. It's a 1024-way slot which means no paylines - you just need to hit winning symbols on consecutive reels from left to right in order to get a win. It's a classic Aristocrat Reel Power formula that has wored really well on similar games like Buffalo.
The game has also inspired a few other developers to 'copy' this game - Bally's Thunderhorn is certainly inspired by this game, for example.
First Impressions of Jaguar Mist
First impressions of the game don’t really do it justice. The questionable sound effects and clunky graphics are more than made up for, however, when you encounter the excellent free spins feature that awards up to 20 spins and the additional Xtra Reel Power wagering option. In the case of Jaguar Mist, it’s not so much a matter of how important first impressions are, but how we must never judge a book by its cover!
Jaguar Mist Graphics
A lush, dark green jungle scene, seemingly shot at dusk, is the backdrop to the game. In front of this, a reel table with ever so slightly retro graphics contains the lower scoring symbols (9-A) and the higher scoring symbols which includes a parrot, frog, owl, dolphin and jaguar, as well as an exotic flower and an Aztec coin.
Jaguar Mist Sound
The sounds of this game are not its strong point. They consist of background chatter meant to replicate the sounds of a casino floor, but this is coupled with sound effects when the reels spin and jungle noises when you win. Together, it makes for quite a strange mix. Of course, you have the option to turn off the ambient lobby sounds and just keep the reel spin sound effects. Simply hit the Settings icon on the lower right of the screen to choose your sound options.
How to Play Jaguar Mist pokie
Playing this game is easy, but making a wager differs slightly from most games, so it’s important to get it right the first time. First, choose a Bet Amount of 0.01 - 0.10 and then choose a Reel Cost of 1-40. The Reel Cost activates the Reel Power Feature that we explored earlier in this review. Essentially, this means you can make a minimum bet of just 0.01 and a maximum bet of 4.00. You can also choose to set a certain number of Autospins of 1-100 using the plus and minus buttons to the left of the main spin button. Otherwise, it’s simply a matter of hitting the spin button to get started, which in this game says PLAY (instead of the more common ‘spin’).
Jaguar Mist Paytable
You can view the paytable any time by clicking on the Question Mark icon located at the lower right of the screen. A pop-up menu will appear, showing the game features. Simply click on the ‘Paytable’ option along the top menu to choose to view the paytable. This reveals the highest and lowest paying symbols and what the payout is for each winning combination. The win is shown as a multiplier, which is multiplied by the total wager (Bet Amount x Reel Cost). As well as the Features and the Paytable, you can also use this menu to view the game rules, learn more about the Xtra Reel Power or view the instructions on how to play.
What Is The RTP Of Jaguar Mist?
This game has an RTP (Return to Player) of 95.15%. This means that over time, the game pays out just over 95% of what is paid in. It can be used as a general indicator of what you might win if you were to play over a long period of time, but it’s important to note that due to the game’s medium volatility, you may win significantly more or less than this, especially if you play for just a short period.
What is the Volatility of Jaguar Mist?
This game has a medium volatility. For new pokie players, it’s important to understand what this means as it will help you choose between games in the future. A low volatility game pays out frequent, but generally smaller wins, whilst a high volatility game will pay out less frequently, but with a greater chance of bigger wins. As you’ve probably guessed, a game with medium volatility lies between the two. It’s the perfect choice for those who haven’t decided what kind of player they are yet.
How To Win At Jaguar Mist pokie
Wins are awarded when three or more matching symbols appear in any of the game’s 1,025 ways to win (paylines). In the case of the lowest scoring symbol ‘9’ and the highest scoring symbol, the jaguar, only two matching symbols are required in a payline in order to win. Wins are also formed when the Orchid wild symbol appears in a payline. This Orchid wild substitutes for all symbols with the exception of the scatter.
The Jaguar Mist ™ feature
The Jaguar Mist ™ feature can be triggered by getting either 3, 4 or 5 scatter symbols (medals) on the reels. these win you 8, 15 or 20 Free Games and the brilliant thing is that your total win for any spin can be multiplied by a massive x27. During the free spins each ORCHID symbol that appears anywhere on reels 1,3 or 4 will multiply the total win for that spin by either 2 or 3.
All free spins are played with 'Reel Cost' and 'Bet Per Reel' at the same level that you were playing at when you triggered the feature game. The Jaguar Mist ™ feature can be re-triggered during the feature and 5 extra free games can be awarded is any two scatters occur during the free games.
Xtra Reel Power ™
In Jaguar Mist ™ you can chose a Reel Cost of x1, x5, x10, x20 and x40 - this is the Reel Power ™ feature and it gives you a certain number of Reel Selections depending on what option you go for. By selecting x40 you cover every symbol on the Reels and your win frequency goes up - of course so does your cost per spin - but we think this is the way to play this game (even if it means lowering your Bet Per Reel).
Jaguar Mist pokie Top Win
The top win comes from landing five jaguar symbols in a payline, and rather than the sheer fear of meeting five real life jaguars, in this case you are set to enjoy a payout of 300x your bet amount. The second biggest wins come when five or more owl or dolphin symbols appear on a payline, awarding players 150x. The third biggest wins come from landing three frogs or parrots in a payline, which awards players a win of 150x.
Overview
This is great game that we know was popular in the offline environment and now it's finally made it into the online world we are sure that it'll be a bit hit online too. It's just a shame in our opinion that Aristocrat waited so long to get this one online - we hope it can find an audience and they did not wait too long.
