Slots Jungle Casino Review

Review of Slots Jungle Casino

Powered by Real Time Gaming (RTG), Slots Jungle is a tropical Jungle-themed online casino, which is owned by a Curacao-based company known as Netad Management. This is one of five online casinos currently owned by this company and they are licensed in Curacao, in the Netherlands Antilles. The good news for Americans is that all US players are accepted here, currently without restriction.

Software and Game Selection

You will see a full library of popular RTG casino games at Slots Jungle that have some great graphics, bonus features and sound effects. They offer plenty of entertainment value and have a wide range of wagering options. Slots that you may be interested in at Slots Jungle include Field of Green, Warlocks Spell, Paradise Dreams, Enchanted Garden, Crystal Waters, Wooden Boy, Treasure Chamber and T-Rex. Slots Jungle even has its very own machine named after the casino that you cannot play anywhere else. There are plenty more to venture into and explore for yourself. The 'Speciality' section of the casino offers popular games such as Sic Bo, Bonus Bingo, Scratchcards, Dice games, as well as Keno, Super 21 and other Blackjack games, and other games like Let ‘em Ride and Baccarat. These games have been presented on fine looking tables with decent backgrounds.

There are several Progressive jackpots on offer at Slots Jungle, including the massive Jackpot Pinatas which currently sits at over $1.6 million. There are also random jackpots which can be won simply by playing selected slot machines. However the jackpots at Slots Jungle Casino are a lot less attractive when you consider the restrictive withdrawal policies, but more on that later. Slots Jungle also offers a slot tournaments facility where you can take on fellow players in competitions that cost a fixed fee to enter.

Promotions and Bonuses

The welcome bonus for all newbies looking to sign up is very attractive indeed. This casino goes as far as to offer as much as $10,000. Basically how this works is that for your first four deposits, they will each have a 250% matching deposit bonus that is worth up to $2,500 each time. The wagering requirements are lowest if you stick to slots, although you are allowed to play selected other games such as blackjack and video poker, albeit only clearing the requirements at a snail's pace.

There are another couple of initially attractive bonuses aimed at blackjack and video poker players. I say "initially" because when you read the fine print you will see that the very games that the bonuses are aimed at are penalised with ridiculously high wagering requirements. For example, if you wanted to play a bit of blackjack with a bonus, the worst bonus of all those on offer that you could take up would be the "Lion King Blackjack Bonus"! Bizarre doesn't begin to describe it.

Aside from that there are special weekly bonus codes available which change regularly. Like most other RTG casinos, the bonuses require a code to claim, so they are not automatically applied to players who don't want them. There is also a VIP player program which earns you perks and comp points which can be redeemed for cash as you progress up the VIP status ladder.

Banking and Support

The main currency used at Slots Jungle is US Dollars, although you can deposit in other currencies and they will be converted to USD. Getting funds initially credited to your account can be done through a number of different trusted methods. Choose from either Mastercard, Visa, Maestro, Wire Transfer, PrePaid ATM, Neteller, Ukash, moneybookers, UseMyWallet, ECO, ClickandBuy and Click2Pay.

Americans looking to withdraw their money will have to rely on a wire transfer or check and herein lies the biggest drawback of this casino and all the others run by the same management: the withdrawal policies. The official line in the terms and conditions is that withdrawals are paid in instalments "up to $3000" - "per payment period" (whatever that is?), but the amount you are actually paid varies according to "player class" (i.e how regularly you deposit and presumably how much). In practice, you can never be sure how much these guys will pay you in instalments - and it is commonly as low as $500 every two weeks or so. American players who have very little choice may be prepared to put up with this sort of thing, but everyone else should be running in the other direction by now.

The support crew at Slots Jungle is supposed to be available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, and can be reached via phone, fax, email, or live text chat. However we have found them either to be overworked or understaffed because they are often slow to respond to our enquiries over the live chat facility.

Slots Jungle is a uniquely themed casino with plenty to amuse you in terms of gaming selection. Unfortunately it is let down by an overly restrictive withdrawal policy that can keep you waiting weeks for your money. Experienced American players that like the look of the bonus may want to check it out as long as you know what to expect, but players from other countries that have far better choices should steer clear.
