Ash Gaming has developed two online pokies with similar names – Heart of the Frontier and Heart of the Jungle. Both have completely different themes and gaming features. Each of them is exciting in its own way. You can play them at Playtech powered Australian online casinos like Omni Casino and Mansion Casino.
Heart of the Frontier has the popular Western theme. The reels are set in the main street of a frontier town. The main symbols are all women and the low paying symbols are actual playing cards. Awarding the high line payouts are the cowgirl, the Indian and saloon girl. All three symbols appear expanded three rows high. The two wild symbols are the sheriff and the bandit, both women. These symbols also expand to fill the entire reel. When the sheriff lands on the reels it will move one reel to the right in successive spins until it exits. The bandit behaves in a similar manner but moves one reel to the left. The real action, or ‘reel action’ begins when you land both the sheriff and the bandit together. This triggers the Showdown Free Spins. You will be awarded five free spins with the expanded wilds held in place. If any further sheriffs or bandits land on the reels, they too will be held fixed until the free spin round ends.
Heart of the Jungle features a guy and a girl that could well be Tarzan and Jane. The symbols include jungle animals like parrot, cheetah, elephant and chimpanzee. The game logo is the wild symbol and it also awards the highest line payouts. The tribal shields appearing on reels 1, 3 and 5 in the same spin trigger the Jungle Trail bonus feature. You will sequentially play one of four free spins bonus rounds. The first feature is Deep Jungle and it awards 8 free spins with an 8x multiplier. The final Ultra Spin can have an up to a 25x multiplier. The Crystal Falls award 10 free spins with four stacked wilds for each spin. In the Golden Mountain feature the number of free spins increases to 15. There are semi-sticky wilds that nudge up or down with each spin. The final feature is the Lost City of Zantar. It is awarded on the 15th trigger of the bonus feature. You win 25 free spins with a special wild symbol that moves horizontally across the reels with each spin and increases the multiplier value.
