Indian Dreaming takes you on a Native American adventure where wins of up to 500-times your stake lay in wait. The base game of this ever-popular machine takes place on a 5×3 layout with 20 paylines running from left to right. Aristocrat does not display the games volatility level, but from playing Indian Draming extensively for this review, we would see it is on the low-to-medium side. Something that is not low is the game’s payout percentage, which is a whopping 98.99%. This figure is unheard of on modern machines because the industry average hovers around the 96% mark.
Royals, tens through aces, are Indian Dreaming’s lowest-value symbols. They payout as little as 0.25x for matching three but up to 10x if you land five aces or kings.
A campfire, tomoahawk, and Native American in a raft are the game’s mid-ier symbols. The tomahawk pays out up to 25x if you land five on a payline.
The titular Indian Dreaming is the highest-value symbol on the game. It pays out for matching only two symbols (0.5x) but finding five of them on the same payline gifts you a 50x payday.
Two other symbols add to the game’s excitement: wilds and scatters. Dreamcatcher wilds substitute for every symbols except the scatter. An American eagle is the scatter. They appear on reels 2, 3, and 4. Landing three scatters starts the free spins round where 10 free spins are all yours.
The visuals are pretty good considering the game’s age, especially if you play on the more up-to-date Indian Spirit. However, the sounds leave a lot to be desired. There is no background music that modern pokie players have become used to, and the sounds are extremely basic. Thankfully, you can turn them off!
