Tarzan of the Apes Introduction
Those not familiar with the story of Tarzan may be surprised that it was first penned as a novel by Edgar Rice Burroughs over 100 years ago, although stories of boys growing up in the jungle have been around for centuries. Raised by apes in the African jungle, many attempted to civilise Tarzan, only to find him always returning to his home.
Made famous by numerous books, comics, and later, films, the story of Tarzan has captivated many a generation and is now brought to us in a brand new format, that of an exciting pokie game.
The graphics of Tarzan of the Apes
Tarzan of the Apes by Aristocrat is a five reel 25 payline game is set where you expect it, deep in the African jungle. The graphics are undeniably excellent and are at the forefront of contemporary pokie graphics technology. Symbols include a locket, cutlass, bongo and various wild animals such as a zebra, leopard, antelope and elephant. High scoring symbols include Jane and Tarzan himself, doubling up as the wild.
Base game bonus features.
The base game itself features two terrific bonus features. The first, the Stampede Remix, sees a number of symbols randomly turn to wilds and then all the symbols are remixed over the reels to potentially create new winning lines. During the next feature, the Tarzan Wild Swing, our eponymous hero swings across the screen on a vine to randomly change symbols into wilds.
Tarzan himself is the wild symbol, but in this game, he can do so much more. At some points he may enter the screen and point his arrow at symbols randomly turning them into wilds too!
Wheel bonus
The wheel bonus scatter symbol triggers the Tarzan Wheel bonus feature when three or more appear anywhere on the reel table. Spin the wheel to win prizes, free spins or to play another bonus feature City of Gold. Enter the City of Gold for a Pick bonus feature where players pick a leopard and gorilla to fight, allowing you to possibly enter the temple for some potentially mega prizes.
This game features more bonus features than you can shake a vine at. The payouts are rare but big when they come, making this a high volatility game suitable for those with a fair amount of pokies experience. Playing it for free, however, removes all of the risk and injects all of the fun as you explore this wild jungle on your own terms.
