Joe Exotic from Red Tiger Gaming is based on the outrageous Netflix TV show. That show documented the life of the Tiger King, Joe himself, chronicling all his exploits while owning tigers. In this slot, this is the theme that runs throughout, but with this comes a number of exciting bonuses and other features. The slot is a standard 5 reel, 20 payline game that doesn't have any special game mechanics or unusual additions of note. The game does, however, have a win potential of 4117x the bet and the chance to place bets from 10p to £20. The game also has a decent RTP sitting at 95.7% and offers a rather high variance game.
What Joe Exotic is all about
The Joe Exotic slot is all about the larger-than-life character who took centre stage in Netflix's Tiger King series. Joe Exotic became a global sensation after being convicted on multiple counts. This slot doesn't focus on that though, but more on the glamourous, more outlandish side to this man. The slot design is as out there as one would expect, full of bright colours, gold trimmings and more. To add to this, the slot also has a hillbilly style soundtrack and a plethora of bonus features to keep the action going. On the reels are a number of the main characters from the show as well as animal skin belts, baseball caps and hip flasks. There are also four different bonuses here offering Pick Me prizes, bonus spins, modifiers and a whole lot more.Dynamite and Tiger Bounty features
The first feature is the Dynamite Feature. This occurs during the base game and can trigger at random on any spin. When it does, an explosion hits the reels and all the lower value icons get blown up. Once these have left the reels in suitably dramatic fashion, a cascade of new symbols takes their place. However, these are only high-value icons that can make the possible wins that much bigger. The second feature is the Tiger Bounty Feature. To get this, the Tiger Bounty symbol needs to land on reels 1, 3 and 5. This results in Joe presenting an offer of 5x, 15x, 25x or 50x the stake. Another character, Allen Glover, will decide whether to collect the offer or choose again. Whichever prize Glover takes is the one that is won.Election Time feature
The Election Time feature is a bit similar to the Pick Me style bonus offered by the Tiger Bounty Feature. For this though, the Vote Joe scatter symbol needs to land on reels 1, 3 and 5. After this happens, a series of different badges are presented. Behind each one of these badges is four different possible candidates and each one has a different multiplier attached to them. The badges need to be chosen continually until three of the same candidate are revealed. Once this happens, the prize that that candidate is associated with is the one that's won by the player. Each of the candidates is one of the series' characters with Garretson offering up 5x the bet, Glover bringing 20x, Jeff Lowe coming in at 50x and Joe Exotic worth 150x the initial bet.Exotic Spins feature
The last bonus is the Exotic Spins feature. This is triggered when the Exotic Spins scatter lands on reels 1, 3 and 5 in one spin. This then awards 9 bonus spins. During the bonus spins, the Joe Exotic super wild comes into play. Sitting on his throne, this symbol will expand and takes up the whole of the central reel. The stacked wild also has a starting multiplier of 1x the initial bet. For each additional winning combination landed during these bonus spins, the wild multiplier increases by increments of one and is capped at 15x. Landing a pair of Exotic spins scatter symbols on the first or last reels during the bonus spins will retrigger the round with another five spins. This can be done endlessly resulting in the possibility of unlimited spins.Summary for Joe Exotic slot
Where Red Tiger Gaming has really succeeded with this game is in recreating the outrageous, over-the-top nature of Joe Exotic. The slot is a bit garish in design, which fits perfectly with the main character. Additionally, there are a numerous bonus features in the game, each of which can seriously boost the winning potential of this slot. The Exotic Spins feature is where the big wins really come though, and thanks to the 15x multiplier, it's possible for a top win of 4117x to be earned from this game. That being said, overall, this is a little bit tame, rather like Joe at the end of the series! There's no Carole Baskin either, but the slot could have done with a few more tigers to really evoke the same feel as the show.
