Crazy Cows is a 15-payline video slot which runs on the Play'n GO software platform. The Bill the Bull icon is the wild symbol and, if it appears in the middle reel, Bill the Bull expands to cover the entire reel. The game’s scatter icon is the Dog symbol and the Barn is the bonus symbol. Players can try the slot on this page for free or visit any of the featured Play'n GO casinos to play the game for real money.
To visit the colourful barnyard, one should set their bet first. “Coin Value” alters the coin size ranging from 0.01 to 0.25. The “Coins” button chooses the number of coins to bet, while “Lines” modifies the number of active paylines. Pressing “Spin” starts the game, “Bet Max” spins the reels at the highest wager and “Autoplay” turns them for a preset number of times without interruption.
After any win, players can press “Gamble” to increase their winnings. Guessing the colour of the face-down card doubles the win and guessing the suit quadruples it. Players can push “Collect” in order to save their won amount.
If the wild icon emerges on the middle reel and the Heart Necklaces appear on reels 2 and 4, the Re-Spin feature is triggered. Players receive 5 re-spins, as the wild reel remains sticky during the re-spins. Another 2 re-spins may be triggered in this round.
The High-Dive Bonus feature is activated when 3 Barn symbols occur on reels 1, 3 and 5 at the same time. Players pick 1 out of 3 cows to jump off the roof into the water trough. The dog then awards players a number of Free Spins and a cash bonus depending on the dive.
Players can win between 10 and 15 Free Spins initially with a x2 multiplier. 2 or more Dog symbols increase one's multiplier up to a maximum of x5. Additional Free Spins may be triggered and players can win up to 50 Free Spins in total.
A jackpot of 2,500 will be won when 5 Bill the Bull symbols occur on an enabled payline.

Not many software providers have games themed on cows. As far as I know, NetEnt and Relax Gaming (or is it Nolimit City, not very sure) have one game each with cows as the main character. Both these games are quite okay to be played, as far as I am concerned, but still couldn’t make it into my favourite list, for being below my expectations. This Crazy Cows game from Play’n Go is also an oldie game, like the other two, but among the three, this one I hate the most!
Whenever any game falls below my expectations, then I don’t like that game. Crazy Cows, for instance, actually has a reasonable paytable, but I don’t like the lower win values of all the symbols, and I also don’t like the 2 feature games that it offers. 5 Wilds pay only 2500x, 5 Scatters pay only 50x the total bet, and the other regular symbols pay from 750x down to 100x, all below my standard level of acceptability.
The first feature game, activated by getting 3 Barn Bonus symbols, awards a random prize and a random number of free spins, but most of the time, the awards are rather disappointing. How so? In my recent play on Crazy Cows, I managed to get 3 times of this feature game, but the number of free spins it gave was 5, 7 and 13, all with a 2x multiplier. How much did each feature game paid? 5x, 17x and 19x my bet amount, damn low payouts, and that really sucks!
The second feature game, when a Broken Heart symbol lands on reel 2 and 4, and with a Bull Wild symbol anywhere on reel 3, the Broken Hearts 5 Respins feature game is awarded. Now this feature game is definitely the most rubbish of the two. Why? I got 4 times of this feature game in my recent play session, and each one paid out 2x, 0x, 0x and 5x my bet amount. Never got any additional +2 Respins either. This is simply ridiculous and absolutely rubbish! You might think that it was probably due to my bad luck, but I have played this game several times before, some years back, and I simply hated this game then. Why I played it again now was simply for the sake of putting down my thoughts in this game review.
Crazy Cows is one game I would not ever play again and would completely avoid it, for ever! The game itself is boring, the free spins feature game literally pays peanuts, and the Respins feature game is simply mindless. I must be out of my mind if I ever say that I like this game!
