Play Primal Hunt for Free

The prehistoric game Primal Hunt is set in the Stone Age, but there is no Flintstone to be seen. Instead, look out for the long-toothed cave lion that luxuriously sprawls across numerous rows of rocks to dish out the highest prizes.

You do not have to be a palaeontologist to find your way around this cave. Instead, use the spears and axes to slice down the reels until you hit the jackpot.

This game is available for free in demo mode at Gamblr. So familiarise yourself with the game before you decide whether you want to play for real money at an online casino.

Theme, graphics and music

The music of the Stone Age was simple at best, so the soundtrack is probably appropriate. The synthesiser noises and explosions you hear as you rake in wins are not from that era, and would have scared any real caveman out of his animal fur!

The background is a beautifully glowing cave that does not look as menacing as some of the other symbols in the game. Everything is set in stone and accented with a light, creating a cohesive image. The speed with which the reels spin betrays the seemingly clumsy stone structure.

With the exception of the sprawling cave lion, many of the game symbols are carved and painted on stone slabs. It gleams in its fanged glory and looks far fiercer than the usual feline predator.

Primal Hunt Summary

Experienced players should check out Primal Hunt for its multiplier feature, which seems to be very generous and not too hard to activate. The extra row also adds some variety for those looking for something different from the usual three and five formations.

There's not much of a story here, but there were simpler times - at least until Betsoft decided to teleport a reel!

Do not be fooled by the look of the game or the scenario from the past; this is a fast-paced game where you can use your wits. It's almost as if you were transported back in time to avoid the dangers and pitfalls of those monolithic days.
