Stampede by Betsoft is set on the African savannah and keeps that setting visible across the entire game. The reels sit against a dry, sunlit landscape with tall grass and acacia trees, and the symbol set is built around large wildlife rather than abstract icons. Elephants take the top position in the paytable, with giraffes, gazelles, and zebras supporting the theme and giving the slot a clear safari identity. The visual style follows Betsoft’s older cinematic approach, so the presentation is polished and detailed without turning into a story-driven adventure. It stays focused on the landscape, the animals, and the sense of movement suggested by the title, using warm earth tones and a broad open backdrop instead of darker or more decorative fantasy design.

The structure is built on 5 reels and 4 rows with 1,024 ways to win, so combinations are formed through adjacent matching symbols rather than fixed paylines. Betsoft lists the game as high volatility, which fits a setup where the stronger returns are concentrated in feature play rather than spread evenly across frequent small hits. The main trigger is the Tree symbol: three or more anywhere on the reels activate free spins. During that round, Elephant symbols appear more often, which increases the chance of stronger all-ways combinations, and extra free spins can be added while the feature is running. Wilds substitute for regular symbols except the free-spins symbol, but their role becomes more important in the bonus mode because each one carries a 2x or 3x multiplier. When multiple multiplier wilds land in the same winning combination, they stack together, with Betsoft stating that three 3x wilds can raise a win to 27x its original value. Overall, this is a safari-themed all-ways slot with one focused bonus round built around symbol frequency and multiplier wilds.
