You are roaming the immense Sahara desert on the back of a tireless camel, in a convoy that only stops for a few during the night. That’s how the Tuaregs live, they are nomads and can’t stay in one place for too long.
That feeling of adventure is present in Tuareg, a video slot that tries to be a welcome oasis in a sea of sand. Let’s see whether it is good enough for the thirstiest of players.
Theme
Tuareg is a video slot that has its reels set in the middle of the Sahara desert, there’s nothing but sand to be seen for miles and miles. The frame of the reels does suggest an oasis, as there is a kind of plant crawling up on the stone wall.
There is background music in this game and it is definitely Oriental, but at times it sounds more Indian than North-African. The sound effects are pretty basic and include some fairly loud drums, while the video animations are quite simple as well.
Betting Options and Functions
This slot has 5 reels and 3 rows, and a total of 25 betways. You need at least three matching symbols in succession from left to right to form a winning combination. You can choose on how many lines you want to bet, and that takes the minimum possible stake to just one cent if you bet on a single line.
The most valuable symbol in the game is, as one would expect in the desert, the Oasis, which is also the Wild. If you get five of those on a line the prize is no less than 5,000 the stake. The theoretical return to player for this title is 95.21%.
Features
The pretty simple graphics and animations could lead you to believe that there wouldn’t be too many special features in this game. You couldn’t be more wrong, there are plenty of them!
- Wilds
There are two types of Wilds in this game: the Oasis that I mentioned earlier and the Sword. The first one is a normal Wild, which substitutes for any other symbol in the game, but the Sword is an Expanding Wild, taking up a whole reel when it lands.
- Free Spins
When you get to the oasis you have to get yourself some good tea, that’s mandatory! The Tea Set symbol is pretty valuable in this game as well, three of them can give you a round of 5 Free Spins, while 5 symbols would get you 15 free rolls.
- Magic Spins
The Free Spins can’t be retriggered, so the Tea Set symbol is replaced by the Magic Spins symbol during the free rolls round. Three of these will activate the Magic Spins mode, in which you can get awesome prizes represented with precious symbols like bracelets and necklaces.
- Tuareg Bonus
The Tuareg tent symbol can get you into a very special adventure, if you land five of them you enter the Tuareg Bonus Game. You will have three attempts to choose between several items that are located inside the tent, each of them hiding surprising prizes.
Conclusion
Tuareg is an entertaining video slot from Italian developer Capecod Gaming. The game doesn’t have the most impressive graphics or the most spectacular animations, but the special features can make it extremely lively and rewarding.
