Planet of the Apes bonus spins

The field on this machine is split into two times five reels, each with 20 paylines. The left half of the slot is the “Rise” half. The right half is the “Dawn” half. If you play the slot in portrait mode on your smartphone, you will see Rise above and Dawn below. Both sides have a wild symbol. This replaces all other symbols with the exception of the scaler and the bonus symbol. If you spin a complete reel with Wilds in the Rise area, this Wild reel will be mirrored to the same position in the Dawn half.

Next up is the Rise Bonus feature. This is activated when the bonus icon appears on reel one. For each human or monkey symbol you will receive a cash prize. At best, you can win your 80x bet.
The Dawn Bonus feature is activated when the Dawn Bonus icon appears on reel ten. All monkey and human symbols in the Dawn area will then turn into a randomly selected, identical symbol. With a little luck you can win up to 1200 times the bet on this feature.

Another extra is the Dual Feature. This is activated randomly in the basic game. A symbol is selected on each half of the game. It then comes to a re-spin. If the selected symbol lands on the other half of the slot, it is transferred to the other half. If it lands on the same half, it remains as a static symbol. The Re-Spin feature continues until no new selected symbols appear. At best, you can win 1000 times the bet on this feature.

If you spin three scatters in the Rise Half, you win ten Free Spins. All the wild animals that show up are collected. If you spin three scatters in the Dawn area, you win 15 Free spins, and if you spin three scatters in the Dawn area, you win 15 Free spins. These require you to collect three different special symbols to activate additional free spin features. If you collect three of the symbols at a time, there are either additional Wilds, three additional Free spins, or a five-fold Winning Multiplier.

Last but not least there is the Multiple Free spins feature. Here you get ten free spins if you spin at least three scatters on all ten reels. The Rise Free spin feature and the Dawn Free spin feature are played alternately.

Planet of Apes RTP is 96.33%

Planet of the Apes mobile slot

Of course, this slot machine is also available for smartphones and tablets. You can easily find the game in the lobby of your mobile Netent casino, for example at Leo Vegas (this is about casinos). To trigger a spin, click on the white arrow on the right (see screenshot below). If you want to adjust your bets before, you can do so in the menu. This can be opened in the lower right corner. As already mentioned above, the layout of this slot changes in portrait mode.

NetEnt solved the challenge of displaying ten rolls on the smartphone very well. However, due to the large number of reels, we recommend that you play this slot machine on larger smartphones (iPhone 6 and up) or tablets. On smaller screens the game might seem a bit confusing.

Great graphics and design

The Planet of the Apes slot is a very well made Netent slot machine. Optically, the game convinces with a very well done graphics and a very innovative slot design. The subdivision of the reels into two playing areas is a very good idea and also convincingly implemented. In addition, the soundtrack of the Planet of the Apes slot machine is very well done. Check out the Slot Intro as well.

Also regarding the gameplay this slot machine leaves almost nothing to be desired. In addition to some features in the basic game, three different free spin games provide additional excitement. There is also the Rise and Dawn bonus feature, which can also be very lucrative.

Conclusion: Planet of the Apes is a slot where we have nothing at all to criticize. Therefore, we believe that this slot machine could become a true NetEnt classic. In any case you have to try this slot machine. If you want to see more Netent machines, we recommend Twin Spin Deluxe or Emoji Planet.
