Tribe's standout feature is genuinely unusual. Three scatters trigger unlimited free games with a x3 win multiplier. There's no fixed count. Instead, a Blue Sun counter sits above the reels, starting at three. Green Sun symbols appearing on the reels add one Blue Sun and pay 2x your total bet. Red Sun symbols remove one Blue Sun and also pay 2x. Free games keep running as long as at least one Blue Sun remains on the counter.
So a session could last four spins or forty. Green Suns sustain you, Red Suns chip away, and both pay the same 2x regardless of their effect on the counter. The volatility of the feature sits in how those suns distribute - a run of reds ends things fast, while greens stacking up early create long, multiplied sessions. With every win tripled during the feature, extended runs produce the game's biggest payouts.
This game originally launched in late 2016 as Maori with detailed depictions of Maori culture including a Haka animation during the bonus. After Hapai Te Hauora, a New Zealand public health organization, raised concerns about linking Maori cultural imagery to gambling, Endorphina pulled the game in early 2017 and issued a public apology. It returned in mid-2018 as Tribe with minor visual adjustments. The jade (pounamu) carved amulet symbols and Polynesian warrior characters remained.
Five reels, three rows, nine adjustable paylines. The wild (a traditional canoe with passengers) substitutes for all regular symbols and doubles any win it participates in. That x2 wild multiplier stacks with the x3 free games multiplier when both are active, pushing individual wins to x6 during the feature.
The wild pays 1,000x base bet for five of a kind - by far the highest symbol on the paytable. The scatter (a carved face coin) pays up to 500x for five. After that, the tattooed warrior at 83x for five, and values drop sharply to jade amulet symbols in various carved shapes: hooks, spirals, koru patterns.
Post-win card picks let you double up to ten rounds. Three jackpot tiers pull randomly from any spin. Bonus Pop buys instant entry to the unlimited free games. The game runs on a warm desert sunset palette with bamboo-frame reels and earthy tones throughout. It's a solid mid-range Endorphina slot from 2018, elevated by that one clever free games mechanic.
