African Wildlife on Play8oy: Both-Ways Lines and an Expanding Lion
Ten fixed lines that count in both directions, plus a lion that stretches over the whole reel when it helps a win. Here's how it plays.
African Wildlife on Play8oy looks like a standard animal slot, but two details change how it pays: the lines count in both directions, and the lion wild grows when it matters.
African Wildlife reels and paylines
The game uses five reels and three rows with ten fixed paylines. You can't switch lines off, so every spin covers all ten.
What makes the count bigger than it looks is that wins form from left to right and from right to left. A line of matching animals starting on reel 5 pays just as one starting on reel 1 does, so the ten lines effectively work as 20.
That doesn't change the house edge, but it does mean more of your spins will show some kind of line win, usually small.
The expanding lion wild
The lion is the wild symbol, and it only lands on reels 2, 3 and 4. Like any wild it substitutes for other symbols to complete a line.
The extra step: if a lion helps form a winning combination, it expands to cover the entire reel. With the middle three reels all eligible, an expanded lion can connect wins on several lines at once, in both directions.
Playing on Play8oy
Because the lines are fixed, your only real control is the stake per spin. Choose one that lets you play a decent number of rounds, since expanding wilds are the main source of bigger wins and they don't arrive on a schedule.
