Grizzly Review

Inspired Gaming are a mid-range team that knows how to produce a good slot. Even then, though, it seems that its games tend to lack that little bit of spark that would put them on par with the best online slots on the market. The same goes for Grizzly as well. It has a nice theme and there are some neat gameplay touches, too, but the overall package isn’t as great as it could be. We’ll give you all the details over the following lines, so keep reading! To kick things off, let’s mention that the playing board offers 5 reels, 4 rows and 1,024 ways to win.

The theme of Grizzly is all about visiting a wilderness and there are plenty of animals in the mix. The background is atmospheric, but we can’t call the visuals polished on the whole. The symbols just don’t cut it in terms of detail and some of them even look a bit out of place. It’s a bit of a shame, but Inspired Gaming need to up their game in the audiovisual department going forward!

Grizzly Slot – Reels Screen

The volatility of Grizzly is medium and the officially advertised jackpot is 50,000x. It’s hard for us to say how exactly you can reach it, but big wins are definitely possible. The betting range caters to players with all kinds of bankrolls. The min bet is low at £0.20, while high rollers can up the ante to as much as £50 per spin. Disappointingly, the theoretical RTP of Grizzly is only 94.97%, which is more than one percent below the 96% industry average.

Grizzly Slot Features

The symbols of Grizzly are varied enough and they can be divided into two categories. The low pays show card ranks from Nines to Aces, with all card ranks paying the same. That’s 2x your bet for a five-of-a-kind combination. Then, there are high pays that feature wolves, elks, pumas, eagles, and grizzlies. Grizzlies are naturally worth the most, up to 6x your bet for 5 symbols in a combination.

Apart from pay symbols, there are also two special symbols, Wilds and Gem Scatters. Wilds can substitute for pay symbols to complete winning combinations, but they can appear only on the middle three reels. Gem Scatters, on the other hand, can appear anywhere on the playing board. They are there to trigger the Free Spins feature.

Grizzly Slot – Free Spins Feature

To trigger the Free Spins feature, you need to find 3 or more Gem Scatters in view. Now – contrary to expectations, the feature itself is actually immensely complex. You’ll always get to pick from 4 different free spins options, but the specifics are also down to the number of triggering Gem Scatters.

For example, triggering the Free Spins featuring with 3 Gem Scatters will allow you to pick either 15 free spins + 2x and 3x Multiplier Wilds, 12 free spins + 2x and 4x Multiplier Wilds, 9 spins + 2x and 5x Multiplier Wilds, or the Mystery option, which is rather random.

During free spins, Wilds that participate in winning combos turn into Multiplier Wilds, with the win multipliers depending on your free spins selection. You can also get extra cash prizes and free spins by finding more Gem Scatters during free spins. The cash prizes (which also apply to free spins triggers) for 3, 4, or 5 Scatters are 1.6x, 8x, or 16x your bet, respectively. For 2, 3, 4, or 5 Scatters, you’ll also get 5, 8, 15, or 20 free spins, respectively.

To round things off, there’s also the Spin Chance feature. It’s automatically triggered whenever your bankroll drops below your selected bet size. When it does, you can decide to risk the rest of your bankroll for a chance to get another spin at your selected bet size.

Review Summary

At the end of the day, Grizzly is a slightly disappointing release from Inspired Gaming. The visuals are only average and the theoretical RTP is well below average, which doesn’t make for a great gaming experience. On the plus side, we do enjoy the numerous free spins options and the high potential wins. It’s up to you to decide which of these factors are important to you, but we can’t give Grizzly a general recommendation.
