If you could just jump into the back of a Jeep and head out into the wilderness in order to see some amazing animals in their natural environment, would you do it? We here at NetEntStalker certainly would, but seen as that kind of a day isn’t close to happening in any way, we utilise our time on the Safari Madness slot game from NetEnt. It takes you right to the heart of the plains where you’ll get to see a variety of animals frolicking around and going about their daily lives. As far as the game itself goes, it’s based on a traditional slot machine cabinet, which has been placed inside a NetEnt establishment. This is clear to see as there’s a table to the left of the cabinet with the developer’s logo on it, and the room itself is decorated is chic plants and wall designs. This means that the product does take on a more classic approach to its layout, but don’t worry, this is not a bad thing. And while it is one of NetEnt’s older games, it still provides enough entertainment from start to finish to keep all players thoroughly entertained. So, it’s time to buckle up and get ready for a ride into the sahara!

Robin Hood Slot
Robin Hood has been portrayed in many different ways – on television, on the big screen in films, in story books and in video games. In fact, it’s one of the most known stories around the world. As we all know, the title character himself is a heroic outlaw in English folklore who was supposedly a skilled archer and swordsman. He’s usually depicted as being dressed in Lincoln green colours and it’s commonly known that he would rob from the rich and give to the poor with his band of Merry Men. The oldest references to the titular character are not historical records, but are in fact hints and allusions found in various works. From 1261 and onwards, the names of ‘Robinhood’, ‘Robehod’ and ‘Robbehod’ occur in the rolls of several English Justices as nicknames or descriptions of criminals. Because the tales of this character has such history, it made perfect sense for NetEnt to create an online video slot based on him, and hence, Robin Hood: Shifting Riches was created. The game itself opens up with a captivating video package of the characters from the story attacking a wandering band of Prince John’s knights who are transporting a chest of gold. Of course, Robin steals such and dishes it out to the poor people of Nottingham.
Relic Raiders Slot
Speaking of ourselves, we’re big fans of all those TV shows and films based on archaeology and relic hunting, so it should come as no surprise that we were stoked to try out the NetEnt slot game, Relic Raiders. We weren’t disappointed upon accessing it, because not only does it play host to a spectacular base game, but there’s also a couple of wonderful special features included alongside which make it all the more appealing. It’s very clear from not only the game itself, but from its logo as well, that it’s been inspired by the successful Indiana Jones movies. And we honestly can’t think of a better theme to base a game around than searching through ancient ruins and buried temples for treasure. And this one takes you right into the middle of a dig as well. With that being the case, you’ll have the sounds of a draughty underground tunnel accompanying your game play, while every spin of the reels seems to be on the verge of determining whether you’ll come across something gruesome in the process. And without further ado, we’d like to welcome you to our review of the game, so you can find out about its wonders before accessing it.
Reel Steal Slot
We’re not ones for the promotion of violence or crime, but we have always wondered what it would be like to be accepted as a member of a gangster mob, going on criminal heists of our own. If you’re the same, now you can get one step closer to that action by playing the NetEnt slot game, Reel Steal. You’re definitely dropped right in to the thick of things with this one, and there’s all the imagery of a real mobster lot, from items that have been looted, to pictures of the criminal parties involved. Not only that, but the game contains a guitar-plucked soundtrack that simply screams out to the Godfather film buffs in us, so we’re all for spinning a few rounds of this one. Graphically speaking, this one is a pleasure to behold, with high quality images and animations taking place within. Add to that a nice selection of special features, and it all comes together to form a very welcome addition to the NetEnt catalogue of products.
Reel Rush Slot
Reel Rush could be considered one of NetEnt’s most innovative and compelling games that they’ve ever created. That’s despite it looking like something straight out of a Nintendo GameBoy product. If it had some retro 80s music included with it, it would be a sure fire rip off of Super Mario Bros. However, in this particular case, it doesn’t. That being said, the background that has been worked in to the game is completely out of this era, with curved-edged oblong shapes for hills and trees able to be seen in the background. It also has a unique layout to it, which can be seen instantly upon loading up the game, which we’ll discuss more in a few moments. Graphic-wise, everything is done in the highest quality, although the icons used in the game are pretty standard on the whole. And just reverting back to the aforementioned soundtrack, Reel Rush does have one, although it’s a lot more serene during game play, only bursting into an up tempo tone when wins are formed.
Red Dog Progressive
Some of you may not be familiar with the game of Red Dog, which is also known as Red Dog Poker or Yablon. It is considered to be a variation of acey-deucy or in-between, and is played with the standard 52-card deck. As a game, it was originally played in the United States during the 1800s, and at this time, it was known as the previously mentioned In-Between. It wasn’t immensely popular in the first instance due to the fact that the liberal rules made it fairly easy for players to cheat, and as such, other card games like regular poker were liked much more. It would be in 1931 that the game was re-introduced to land-based casinos, with new rules and the new name of Red Dog Poker, and from then on, it became a popular gambling game. It is usually played on a blackjack table, and the basic objective of it is to wager on which cards are dealt, whilst hoping that a third card will be dealt with a value in between that of the first two. Simple, right? Because of the simplicity behind it, its popularity has declined in land-based establishments over the years, although it still holds a place in many online casinos, which is why NetEnt have also crafted their own offering of it.
Pyramid: Quest for Immortality Slot
We’ve said it before numerous times and we’ll say it again, games developers need to stop using Ancient Egypt as their basis for creating products. It’s been very much overly done. That being said, NetEnt has managed to use the topic in the most successful way, providing a few different games with this theme as their basis. However, Pyramid: Quest for Immortality might just be the best one they’ve made yet. It takes place at the forefront of a pyramid, with two columns of Egyptian deities stood at either side of the reels. NetEnt have also included a nicely appropriate piece of music in the game as well, ensuring that your game play isn’t marred by anything which could be considered annoying or frustrating. Graphically speaking, it’s of the usual high quality that this developer provides, and this extends beyond towards its animations and general game play. Not only that, but it’s also host to a number of different special features, all of which merge together with the standard base game play to ensure that you’re accessing a fun and entertaining product.
Pontoon Pro Series
For those of you who are unfamiliar with the game of Pontoon, allow us to enlighten you on it a little. It is commonly known as a variation of the popular Blackjack game, although it often uses the terms of ‘Twist’ and ‘Stick’, rather than the regularly seen ‘Hit’ and ‘Stand’. It’s often referred to as the British or domestic version of Blackjack, which in turn is the American version of Vingt-et-un, the French game of 21 popular in the court of Louis XV. It would go on to become the most popular game of the armed forces of English-speaking nations during the 20th century, and unlike Blackjack, it has no official rules, varying to vast degrees from school to school. Of course, the NetEnt offering of this game does have its own specific rules, although the layout of the table and everything alongside it is very much the same as NetEnt’s blackjack offering. Of course, the idea of Pontoon is to reach the card value of 21 without exceeding it, otherwise this is considered a ‘bust’ and therefore losing hand.
Pirate’s Gold Slot
When it comes to some of the older products released by our favourite developer NetEnt, Pirate’s Gold stands and head and shoulders above a lot of them. While it isn’t as graphically sound as some of the more recent releases, and it doesn’t feature any kind of special layout, it does have a certain uniqueness about it, and we’re always eager to play it on days when we’ve had enough of the ultra-modern slot games – yes, it does happen on occasions. Whenever you access Pirate’s Gold, you’ll be presented with the game on a traditional machine cabinet, which seems to be located within a land-based establishment. You can see another machine behind it, and various plants and light fittings are able to be viewed all around the place. The interface of the game offers up the reels at the bottom of the screen, while a pirate and his green parrot are present overhead. Meanwhile, part of his ship and the cannons attached to it are also visible in the background.
Piggy Riches Slot
We can’t say that we’ve ever thought about what it would be like if pigs were ever rich – especially considering they’re fairly happy if given the ability to roll about in mud and chew on their favourite food whenever they please. However, NetEnt have taken the idea of rich piggys a little further, and have created the slot game entitled Piggy Riches. It is with this elaborately thought up game that you have the ability to see exactly what pigs might decide to spend thousands and thousands of Euros on, if they had the possibility of doing so. Apparently, holding a party would be their first desire, as the sound of a champagne bottle cork popping out and the bubbly liquid being poured in to flutes can be heard in the background amongst lots of chatter. Further to this, the game seems to take place in a lavish mansion of some kind, with the ornately decorated gate being visible on the left hand side of the reels, while the building itself can be seen on the right. On the whole, this game provides an entertaining and creative insight into the life of a pig family with lots of cash to spend!
