How to play
Safari Ways is a five-reel, three-row slot with 243 ways to win. There are no paylines: a symbol pays whenever it lands on adjacent reels starting from the leftmost reel, in any row.
- Choose your coin size: 1, 2, 5, 10 or 20 credits. Every spin costs 25 coins, so a coin of 2 is a total bet of 50.
- Press Spin. The reels stop from left to right.
- For each symbol, count the reels in a row from the left that show it at least once. Three or more reels pay.
How ways multiply. If the lion shows once on reel 1, once on reel 2 alongside an acacia wild, once on reel 3 and not at all on reel 4, that’s 1 × 2 × 1 = 2 ways, and the 3-lion prize is paid twice. With three rows on five reels there are 3 × 3 × 3 × 3 × 3 = 243 possible ways.
Special symbols.
- Acacia tree (wild): appears only on reels 2, 3 and 4 and stands in for every symbol except the sunset. It has no prize of its own.
- Savanna sunset: pays anywhere on the reels, based on your total bet, and triggers free spins:
| Sunsets | Pays (× total bet) | Free spins |
|---|---|---|
| 3 | 2 | 8 |
| 4 | 10 | 12 |
| 5 | 50 | 20 |
Free spins use the coin size that won them and cost nothing. Sunsets during free spins award more free spins.
Pay table (× coin, per way):
| Symbol | 3 reels | 4 reels | 5 reels |
|---|---|---|---|
| Lion | 30 | 125 | 450 |
| Elephant | 20 | 90 | 300 |
| Giraffe | 18 | 60 | 225 |
| Zebra | 15 | 45 | 150 |
| Ace | 7 | 20 | 90 |
| King | 7 | 18 | 75 |
| Queen | 6 | 15 | 60 |
| Jack | 4 | 12 | 45 |
| Ten | 4 | 9 | 35 |
Different symbols pay at the same time, and every way of each symbol is paid.
Strategy
Like every slot, each spin is random and independent, and nothing you do changes the odds. Here is the math, calculated exactly from the symbols on each reel:
- Return: 95.27%, free spins included.
- Free spins trigger about once every 38 spins.
- Why ways feel different: with 243 ways, small wins come often and several can land on the same spin, but each way pays per coin, and one spin costs 25 coins.
- Your coin size doesn’t change the odds. Pick one that lets your credits last.
