Teddy Bear’s Picnic Slot Review
It’s all happening down the woods today and it might just end up with you winning plenty of cash. ‘Teddy Bear’s Picnic’ is another excellent slot release from Nextgen Gaming who keep on coming up with the goods. If they were responsible for the food at this picnic then you’d be guaranteed some top notch grub.
‘Teddy Bear’s Picnic’ has a fantastic look to it. This really is like opening a children’s book and loving the beautifully drawn pictures inside. The whole idea of the game comes from the song written by John Walter Bratton way back in 1907 which became even more famous when Jimmy Kennedy added the legendary lyrics 25 years later. The soundtrack to the game does sound similar to the song.
In the background we can see the teddy bear’s having their picnic on a lovely sunny day. They are on the left hand side of the reels and on the right hand side we can see the path that leads to the tree house where they presumably live.
The game has five reels and three rows of symbols. There are up to 25 paylines that you can activate. Just how many you do is entirely your decision and playing the game can cost from £0.01 to £50, simply decide on a stake that you can afford to lose.
A really nice touch is that the control buttons for the game are on picnic related items. The info button takes you to the paytable that has tons of information about how the game runs. That button has a tasty looking chocolate flavoured ice-cream for you to click on. The spin button is on the trifle and there’s also an autoplay feature that can be activated by clicking on the lollipop. This can set between five and 100 automated spins.
The symbols include the three bears, their mother and father, a cake and a cup of tea or coffee. There’s also the ten to Ace playing card symbols that have a colourful look to them.
The honeycomb symbol is the wild in this game and can substitute for all other symbols apart from the picnic basket scatter. Five of the wild symbols on an active payline pays 500x your line bet.
Bonus Game
After each spin of the reels you might be lucky enough to see a teddy bear appear in front of the reels. The playful little teddy chucks some honeycomb at the reels (his mother and father will be having words later) and that turns a symbol wild. The reels are then re-evaluated to see if any new wins have been created.
To get some free spins you need three or more of the picnic basket scatter symbols anywhere on the reels This means you don’t have to be activating too many paylines to be in with a chance of getting into the bonus round. Once activated you receive eight free spins and during these look out for the honeycomb wild symbol. If it appears then it becomes sticky and will stay there for the rest of the free spins increasing your chances of getting winning combinations. It’s not possible to re-trigger the free spins though.
This slot also has a gamble feature and this appears after you get a winning combination You can double a win by correctly guessing the colour of the next card or quadruple it by getting right the suit of the next card. Sounds easy but it’s not and this is an easy way to sacrifice good wins.
Conclusion
A really enjoyable game right from the excellent look of the game and the features it contains. There are some good chances to get wins here especially with the help that the wild symbol gives you. Definitely recommended.
