About This Slot
Play’n Go are currently on fine form! As we head into autumn with their Saxon rock n roll slot still ringing in our ears and the prospect of the awesome Reactoonz 2 on the horizon, we’re excited to be reviewing yet another great game from the Swedish outfit.
Feline Fury has a strange theme that will appeal to fans of history and cats! Although cat characters are commonplace in animal-themed slots, the furry companions here aren’t so cute. You’ll find a haughty collection of individuals, including a sea captain cat, soldier cat, green-robed emperor cat and beret-wearing merchant cat. All these fine felines look suitably furious.
Feline Fury has a regular layout of 5 reels with 3 rows of symbols and 20 paylines. The background features a castle wall with turrets and the whole atmosphere transports players to medieval times, including the dramatic choral music. The fun is in the strangeness of this slot and the surreal theme is actually a breath of fresh air when so many slots only follow tried-and-tested paths.
Although peculiar in subject matter, Feline Fury has a standard set up with an RTP of 96.2%, a 20p minimum bet and a medium volatility rating. This means the slot has well-balanced gameplay and a good ratio of wins to bets. Payouts are frequent enough to keep interest levels high, while being high enough to keep things exciting, although the 5,000x stake jackpot isn’t as great as some other Play n Go titles.
Symbols and Paytable
Feline Fury is filled with the atmosphere of the middle ages, from the castle in the background to the cats’ outfits and dramatic, religious-style music. You’ll find four feline protagonists: a white captain cat holding a telescope, a soldier cat complete with shield, helmet and sword, a regal-looking grey emperor cat robed in green velvet, and a tabby merchant cat wearing an ostentatious red beret and a ruff collar.
The soldier cat pays the highest reward of 10x your bet for 5 matches. The emperor cat is the Wild symbol in the game and this also pays 10x your bet for 5 matches. The other cats award from 2.5x your bet for 5 matches. There are also some lower-paying symbols, which are the colourful card suits on wooden shields.
The bonus features enable other cats to act as supplementary Wilds, while other features include Fury Reels, Multipliers and Free Spins.
Gameplay and Features
Feline Wilds
Feline Wilds can be triggered randomly during the gameplay, turning any cats into Wild symbols which can substitute for all other symbols. This feature will also activate Fury Reels.
Fury Reels and Multipliers
When lightning arrows fly across the screen, they can turn up to 5 reels into Fury Reels. When a Wild lands on a Fury Reel, it expands to fill the whole reel to give even more opportunities to substitute. If you find another Wild it will attract a 2x Multiplier, while a third Wild applies a 3x Multiplier.
Free Spins and Mini Game
Landing 3 Scattered Holy Grails on reels 1, 3 and 5 will trigger the Free Spins round with 5 spins available. There is also a Mini Game involved in the Free Spins round, which requires you to collect card suits. Once you collect 12 suits, you’ll turn one cat into a Feline Wild, which will stay on the reels for the duration of the Free Spins round. This means you can also trigger Fury Reels and the potential for more Multipliers.
Our Verdict
Feline Fury is a weird and wonderful slot from Play n Go, bringing together the attractive themes of cats and the Middle Ages. It’s an odd combination but one that works well, giving us grumpy cat characters with quirky medieval personas. The best feature here is the Fury Reels and Multipliers, which can make a huge difference to your payouts. The Mini Game within the Free Spins round is a nice touch to activate more Feline Wilds. Although the 5,000x stake jackpot isn’t the highest we’ve seen, it’s still a decent reward – especially considering the inflation since medieval times! Get ready to enter this surreal world soon – Play n Go is due to release the irritable kitties at the end of September 2020.
