Rex The Hunt! Slot Review
Rex the Hunt is a new video slot from Thunderkick that was released on December 14, 2022. The setting for Rex the Hunt is a lush, verdant tropical jungle. The reels are located in the center of the screen, and there are trees and vines on both of the screen's sides. It is unclear when or where this game takes place since it features both humans and dinosaurs, the dinosaurs could never have coexisted on the earth at the same time, maybe it is a result of some scientific experiment that went wrong. As shown in the film series Jurassic Park, it's possible that some scientists have managed to clone dinosaurs using the blood of dinosaurs that were preserved in amber. The game comes with a couple of interesting game features, so read our review to be prepared for them.

Rex The Hunt Bonus Features
Stacked Mystery Symbol
The Mystery Symbol may show up anywhere on the screen, with the exception of reels 1 and 6. It covers a whole reel when it appears, landing in stacked formation. After Mystery Symbols have been placed, each one of them will change into a random symbol. During the free spins, the symbols get sticky and remain where they are on the reels for the duration of the bonus round.
Free Spins Feature
When you collect 2 Scatter symbols that appear on reels 1 and 6, you will trigger the Bonus Feature with 10 Free Spins. During the Free Spins, if you collect two Scatters, you will be awarded 5 additional spins. The feature will bring all Stacked Mystery Symbols that were present during the spin that resulted in the activation of the Free Spins to the Bonus Game.
Our Experience Playing Rex The Hunt
When we began playing the game, we were greeted with a reelset that had a distinctive appearance and music that had an exciting tone to it. Unfortunately, this was not sufficient to evaluate whether or not playing the game was worth your time and money, we had to examine how it behaved in terms of rewards in order to come to a conclusion. In order to do this, we resorted to our standard operating process, which included making a deposit of 200 Euros, adjusting the stake to 1 Euro, and giving the machine around 300 spins. During the first one hundred spins, the biggest win that we got was only 7 Euros and with the “help” of number payouts averaging 1x the bet, we lost a little bit more than 60 Euros. This behavior was rather greedy for a slot machine that was supposed to have a medium amount of volatility. The next hundred spins were very similar to the previous ones, with the exception that this time we got a bigger win of 17.80 Euros, making our bankroll drop down to 83.50 Euros. The final one hundred spins were as consistent as the spins that came before in depleting our balance. However, this time we triggered the bonus round that paid us 57.70 Euros. That was not nearly enough to cover our losses, and we left the game feeling very disheartened since we had lost something in the neighborhood of 110 euros.
Rex The Hunt! Verdict
The action of this slot machine is not very complicated, but it rapidly loses its excitement due to its lack of sophistication and decent payouts. Although it is indicated that the volatility of the slots is medium, we would classify it as low. Low in the sense that it consistently depletes your bankroll and does not provide you practically any big profits. There are other, more enjoyable slot machines with a Jurassic Park theme available. This is not a game that we encourage you to participate in.
