Africa X UP™ Game Review

There have been plenty of online casino games, especially slots, with a variety of themes over the last years, but none so enthralling as those that encapsulate the continent of Africa, with its beautiful sunsets and magnificent animals. But is it the theme or the special in-game bonus features that attract players to a specific online slot game? Software developer Microgaming has joined forces with 3rd party provider, Alchemy Gaming, to combine these two elements in an exciting way with the latest creation, Africa X UP™. In this review, we take a look at just what makes Africa X UP™ such an exciting game to play at one of our favourite online casinos: Spin Casino.

Game Theme And Symbols

Africa X UP™ is an African fantasy-themed online slot that stretches from the dry lands of the savanna to the waterfalls of the Zambezi River. The game revolves around two African warriors who are the protectors of three iconic African animals: the elephant, rhino and buffalo. Together with their spirit animals, the warriors guide them to find water.

The game itself, as with a few other online casino games, is based on the popular 243-ways-to-play mechanic, where potential winnings are paid out according to symbols that land adjacent to each other from left to right, instead of the usual paylines that are found on online slot games. Bet sizes range from 0.30 to 21 credits, which is perfect for both new and experienced players, and the game has an average payout percentage of 96.37%, making it a high volatility online casino game.

The symbols one will come across on the reels of this game include the two warriors, the elephant, rhino and buffalo, as well as the A, K, Q, J and 10 playing card icons. There is also the Wild symbol, in the shape of animal horns, which can substitute for other symbols to complete possible winning combinations, and the X UP symbol, which we’ll explain later, as this is a new feature that Microgaming and Alchemy Gaming are introducing in Africa X UP™. Let’s get to those in-game bonus features.

In-Game Bonus Features

The Scatter symbol, which is also the X UP symbol, can pay out whether these symbols are landing next to each other on the reels or not, however, 3 Scatter symbols anywhere on the reels will award the player with 8 free spins. During this feature, additional spins can be added (two at a time) for every two extra Scatters that land. And here’s where the other secret of the X UP symbol lies, as it doesn’t only act as a Scatter in this online slot. Every time two Scatters land on the reels during regular play, an X UP token will be awarded, which you can collect to increase the free spins Multiplier during the feature, which goes up to 25x. However, should you also collect enough X UP tokens and therefore activate the 25x Multiplier, the Free Spins feature will automatically be triggered.

There’s another reason why the X UP symbol is so powerful, as it will come in very handy should you wish to activate the Buy Bonus feature. You can choose to buy the free spins feature at a calculated cost, where you will immediately receive 8 free spins. You can also “cash in” on X UP tokens that you have accumulated during your play which will reduce the cost of the feature.

Africa X UP™ is indeed an exciting and new way to experience a themed online slot, and can be found at any online casino with games from Microgaming and Alchemy Gaming. Before we tell you a bit more about our favourite, Spin Casino, let’s take a look at these two software providers.
