Game Overview
Enjoy a throwback style theme with 8-bit graphics in Snake Arena Slot from provider Relax Gaming. Played across a reel format of 5×5, there are 30 fixed paylines in place on this game, where players can aim high in a quest to secure the maximum win of 2,578x bet.
Whilst offering an RTP rate of 96.25%, there are exciting in-game features that can also be enjoyed. There’s the wild chase feature for example, which can trigger randomly on any spin and is capable of transforming all 5 reels into wilds. The action levels spike though when landing a snake symbol on reel 1 and a knight anywhere in view. This will activate the free spin feature where you can grow a wild snake to huge lengths.
Let’s find out more about this slot in our full game review. If you’re a player that would rather learn on the job instead though, head straight to our free play demo of Snake Arena slot where you can practice on the game and see the features active in real time. The trial play is available for you to access on desktop, tablet, and mobile devices.
Snake Arena Slot Theme, Stakes, Paylines & Symbols
Possibly the most famous snake related game to ever be released was the classic snake title that you could play on the Nokia phones back in the early 2000s. Although gaming in general has drastically improved since those days, Relax Gaming are giving us somewhat a blast from the past with their Snake Arena slot game. Players will be transported to medieval times as the game loads up, where inside the castle grounds they will ultimately do battle with the almighty snake. There’s a very adventurous style soundtrack to the game as well, which is best enjoyed if you can crank up the volume, or plug in your headphones.
When it comes to the pay symbols within the slot, players will find 4 different coins making up the lower values. The higher and most valuable symbols are the tankard, sword, eye, and crown, with a 5 of a kind win paying 4x, 5x, 10x, and 20x respectively. Both the knight symbol and the snake symbol are wilds, and will substitute for all other in-game symbols.
If you fancy your chances of winning big on Snake Arena online slot, then you can partake in some real money play for as little as €0.10 a spin, with the maximum stake reaching €100. As is often the case with a Relax Gaming slot, the return to player percentage is very respectable, with an RTP of 96.25% being attached to the game.
Snake Arena Wild Chase Feature
The wild chase feature on Snake Arena can randomly trigger during any spin, and has the potentual to change up to all 5 reels wild. The snake will peek out from above one of the reels at random, whilst the Knight will also do the same from below the reels. If they both appear on the same reel then the Snake will attack the Knight and the reel will become fully wild.
You will get 3 chances of them appearing on random reels, if during those attempts there are no matches made then the bonus will end and any wins will be tallied up. There is a bit of potential with this feature as all 5 reels can be turned fully wild.
Snake Arena Slot Free Spin Feature
Triggering the free spin bonus on Snake Arena is achieved by landing a snakehead on reel 1, and then a Knight landing anywhere in view on the reels. There are no set amount of spins awarded for initiating the bonus round as it differs to how most slots work in this area of the game.
During the free spins a Knight will land somewhere on the reels with every spin that is taken, both he and the snake will become wild and any wins achieved will be paid. The snake will then make its way to go and eat him which will extend the length of the snake, and move you higher up the meter that is located to the right of the reels and has a jackpot of 1000x your stake.
Obviously the bigger you can get the snake the more wilds there will be on offer, which means the potential of some decent wins coming your way. The feature will end when either the snake has filled up the positions on reels 2 – 5, or it crashes into itself trying to eat the Knight.
Feature Buy
For players living in regions where they are still able to buy a bonus, Snake Arena offers this opportunity for the cost of 70x your current stake. As always be careful if you do choose to take this option, and make sure that you have deposit limits in place.
Snake Arena Slot Final Thoughts
Relax Gaming definitely make some interesting slots and Snake Arena certainly falls into that category. It has a touch of Fat Santa and Fat Rabbit about it, not just in the way that the feature is triggered, but also with the collecting of symbols and growing in size aspect.
As with the mobile game snake, the most frustrating part of this slot is when the snake crashes in to itself, especially when it seems there is a route it can take to not do so. Though reading through the rules properly it does say that the snake will use at most one turn, but still frustrating none the less.
We see this game being a love or hate scenario for players, with not a lot in between. The mobile game was very popular, so could Snake Arena reach the dizzy heights of stardom that its handheld predecessor once did? Only time will tell.
