Aurora: Beast Hunter is an action-packed video slot developed by Just For The Win, featuring a vibrant and nostalgic theme inspired by 90s adventure and fantasy aesthetics. Released on June 23, 2020, the game is set against a colorful backdrop that combines elements of a desert canyon with the thrill of beast hunting.
The game features a unique reel configuration of 5 reels arranged in a 3-4-3-4-3 pattern, offering players a total of 40 paylines that zigzag across the grid. With an RTP of 96.27% and high volatility, players can expect a mix of frequent small wins and the potential for significant payouts, with maximum wins reaching up to 5,000 times their stake.
One of the most exciting aspects of Aurora: Beast Hunter is its variety of bonus features. Players can trigger Free Spins by landing three monster truck scatter symbols on reels 1, 3, or 5. Upon activation, players can choose from three different Free Spins modes:
- Sandstorm: Offers 12 low volatility free spins with expanding wilds that provide cash prizes of up to 2x your stake.
- Danger Zone: Grants 8 medium volatility free spins where between one and five wilds are added randomly to the reels on each spin, with maximum winnings up to 3,000x your stake.
- The Sub: This high volatility option provides just five free spins but allows for substantial wins of up to 5,000x your stake. During these spins, one reel is marked; if a stacked or expanding wild appears on that reel, it becomes sticky for the remainder of the feature.
In addition to Free Spins, the base game offers several random features such as cash prizes (1.5x or 2x), random wilds (1 to 5 added wilds), and sticky wild stacks that lock in place for respins.
Aurora herself is the highest-paying symbol in the game and can appear stacked on the reels for greater winning potential. The combination of engaging gameplay mechanics and nostalgic graphics makes Aurora: Beast Hunter a standout title in Just For The Win's portfolio.
