Dinopolis: Slot Overview

Anthropomorphic dinosaurs are a gamble in themselves. Miss the mark and you end up with something like ‘Theodore Rex’, sitting at a 2.5/10 on IMDB. Nail it, though, and the idea can echo through pop culture for decades. That’s essentially what happened with the squishy cast of the acclaimed TV show ‘Dinosaurs’, which later helped inspire Push Gaming’s slot Dinopolis some thirty years on.

Picture an alternate timeline where the asteroid never arrived, dinosaurs survived, and eventually reached human-level smarts. So how would they spend their downtime? If Dinopolis is any indication, they’d be living it up in a Vegas-style playground—stacking chips, throwing dice, and scooping up bundles of cash. That’s the scene in Dinopolis, played on 5 reels with a 576 pay way layout set in a 3-4-4-4-3 formation. The reel area is a touch compact on desktop, though it matters less when the backdrop is this loud and flashy. The Vegas Strip is already excessive, so a dinosaur-scale version would be pure spectacle. Pair that with a twanging rockabilly soundtrack and you get a quirky dinosaur spin—far removed from the usual jungle-stomping, people-munching routine.

You can party with the dinos on any device, with bets from 10 p/c rising to $/€100 per spin. As is often the case with Push Gaming, the numbers look strong, and Dinopolis follows suit. The RTP holds firm at 96.40%, and the math model is distinctly high volatility—though it doesn’t feel quite as savage as titles like Razor Shark or Jammin’ Jars. The bonus can be stubborn to land, but the big-win potential sits behind it, setting up the chance for some very rewarding sessions.

Wins in Dinopolis are paid when 3 or more matching symbols hit on consecutive reels starting from the leftmost reel. Staying on theme, Push Gaming skips the usual card suits and royals. Lower-value symbols include dice, chips, cards, and cash, while the premium set is made up of 4 dinosaur characters (including a Jessica Rabbit-style standout) who look like they’re having the time of their lives. The top 2 super premiums are a pair of triceratops-like big shots, paying 7.5-10 times the stake for 5 of a kind.

Dinopolis: Slot Features

Unlocking the Dino Bonus is the main mission here, with a progressive mechanic that pushes you through multiple stages on the road to the top. Meanwhile, the base game stays unpredictable thanks to wild multipliers and the special Dino Coins.

Wild symbols land on reels 2, 3, or 4 and can replace any symbol apart from the scatter. Wilds can arrive carrying an x2 or x3 multiplier. These multipliers boost the number of ways on the reels where they appear, matching the multiplier amount.

Watch for the Dino Coins that drop on reels 1 and 5, showing multiplier values of x1, x2, x5, x25, x50, x10, x50, x100, x500, and x1000. Coins are awarded when they connect with at least 2 wilds on reels 2 to 4. When a coin is awarded, the payout is your stake multiplied by the value shown on the coin. Wild multipliers also multiply any Dino Coin win.

Hitting 3 purple card scatters on the middle 3 reels activates the Dino Bonus feature. Once it starts, 4 cards are dealt face down and you choose 1. A second set of cards is then dealt for another selection. The 1st card determines an active feature, while the 2nd reveals the number of free spins. Feature picks include:

• Sticky stack wild symbols – a full reel wild with an x2 multiplier on reels 2, 3, or 4. Having more than one stack wild in view multiplies their values together.
• Single reel multiplier booster – a random reel with a sticky stack wild has its multiplier increased by +1.
• All reel multiplier boost – increases the multiplier of all sticky stack wilds by +1.
• Golden card – when revealed, players can choose two extra feature picks.

In free spins, special Dino Coins can appear with a dotted highlight around them. These are collected to fill the meter beside the reels. Once 5 are collected, you advance to the next level of the bonus and the meter resets. Before stepping up to the new level, you get to pick 2 more cards to unlock features and free spins as outlined above. In total, there are 5 levels.

Dinopolis: Slot Verdict

Turning dinosaurs into human-like characters is a tricky move, which is likely why they’re usually shown as simple-minded predators. Push Gaming leans into their cute appeal instead, suggesting there’s more to them than just hungry monsters. For the most part it lands, and Dinopolis feels very different from the typical dinosaur portrayal. Not that dino slots are overflowing with chomping chaos, but the shift is still a welcome change of pace.

Feature-wise, the coin win mechanic carries a faint echo of what you might recognise from Razor Shark, while the bonus round borrows a little of the card-picking vibe seen in Thunderkick’s Wild Heist, leading into wild reels, extra spins, multipliers, and similar boosts. Naturally, the bonus is where Dinopolis can really cut loose, and reaching it can demand a decent amount of patience. That can make the base game feel a bit slow at times, but the Dino Coin Symbols and the bright, upbeat style help keep things moving.

Once free spins are in play, results can swing wildly between weak and huge. When it all clicks, wins can reach 50,000 times your stake. Another plus is that the card-pick element adds randomness, so bonus rounds don’t all play out the same way. The Dino Coin collection mechanic is more of a mixed bag. It’s excellent when it sneaks in a tidy payout or helps you gather enough coins to level up the feature. At other moments, coins can block potential line-ups when high-paying symbols are sitting on the middle reels. While Dinopolis didn’t come across as outrageously volatile overall, across three days of constant testing we didn’t hit level 5 even once (likely over 100 features played). On top of that, the biggest win didn’t even come from free spins, but from landing one of the x1000 gold coins in the base game.

Even so, Dinopolis delivers a lively, original theme in a loud, feel-good setting, backed by strong win potential. Just don’t let the silly outfits fool you—Dinopolis is still a volatile Push Gaming slot, where the residents can be as ready to swipe with claws or stomp as they are to rock’ n roll.
