Lion Strike

Rabcat hasn't exactly been highly prolific of late, so perhaps that might explain why the studio has taken it relatively safe by picking a conventional slot theme and filling it with some straightforward, albeit effective, gaming elements. It's cautious stuff, but it should be enjoyable if African-themed slots are a particular forte. Graphically, Lion Strike has a noticeably higher-than-average finish, helping lift it to a higher level than it might have been if Rabcat hadn't been so meticulous with the details. A similar thing happens with the gameplay, which is on one level simplistic, on another level kind of satisfying when you start tripping through the bonus rounds. There's a faintPlay'n GOorRed Tigerfeel to the way players can unlock higher free spins, gaining access to more ways, rows, and reels, not to mention wilds and multiplier wilds. Doing things this way does leave the base game pretty bare, though, especially if the glow produced by the visuals wears off after a while. Lions Spins are included, but they weren't super common, and it's not the same as, say, the feature fromPragmatic Play'sGreat Rhino/Great Rhino Deluxegames, which could stack rhino symbols during respins. Potential doesn't suffer as a result, as Lion Strike packs a respectable top win number of14,580x the bet. All in all, Lion Strike is a well-made game, though one which doesn't do anything unmissable per se. If you're utterly benumbed by the thought of another one of these sorts of games, Lion Strike is unlikely to change your mind. However, when factoring in the sizable potential with the excellent artwork and the building on top of each other quality of the two free spins rounds, proponents of African nature slots have a decent alternative on their hands.
