It's not so bad being a bug in Rickety Cricket. This 25-line online video slot takes players into the lives of some of the world's tiniest critters. See how good it is to you by playing on our site for free. If you want to play Rickety Cricket for real money, register at any of our listed Amaya casinos.
Before you start playing, be sure to pick a bet you can handle. Use the up and down arrows by Bet to adjust the amount of cash you're wagering on all of the active paylines. Do the same for the Lines panel to adjust the number of active paylines. To begin, hit Spin, or use Bet Max to play with all 25 lines activated. Use the Autoplay section to spin several times in a row.
While the characters of Rickety Cricket are small, the potential payouts are massive. Various bugs will hopefully align and give you a good chunk of cash. Wild flowers will increase your odds of getting a win. The real money is in the bonus game, however. Trigger the feature by getting three Bonus leaves on the middle three reels, and you'll be enjoying a number of free spins. But that's not all! If you get the deadly Bug Zapper on reel 1, don't panic. All bugs will then pay out as scatters, giving you up to 40x your entire bet.

This is another new addition to Cryptologic games and I can’t believe that no one has rated this game yet. I only played this game on PartyCasino and I can tell you already that I really like it. There are not too many 25 line games with stacked wilds out there and to find this one was a real treat.
The theme of the game is bugs, not my favorite creatures out there, but these ones are really generous. I had some amazing wins on this game and mist of them was on tiny bets. One of my big wins was on a last spin of the day. I had played for a long time and had only €0.18 on the account. So I did one last spin and got 1, 2, 4, and 5th reels filled with wilds. Unfortunately there were no bugs in the middle, but even with K's and Q's I won over €30.
I never managed to get wilds on all five reels, but getting them on four reels was not as rare as I thought it was going to be. My biggest line hits was on a bet of €0.50 and that was for few reels wild and few bugs. I won around €60 and that was in a normal game mode.
The game also has a free spins feature and it is awesome too. You get 8 free spins with a random multiplier of up to 8x. In the free spins I never managed to get more than three reels with wilds and my best win was around €50 on €0.50 bet.
There is also a scatter bonus in this game. If you get the Buzzer on first reel, then every bug that lands on other reels is scatter. You can get 40x your bet if you get 7 of them. My best was four bugs, which was nothing special.
Getting the bonus can be a serious task in this game. Two symbols appear almost all of the time and can really stress you out. The game is also missing the stop button. It would have been perfect for this game but unfortunately they skipped it.
The picture of cricket also bothers me. I can’t tell is it is a cricket or a dude in glasses wearing a cricket suite.
Over all, an affordable game with stacked wilds and good pays. My rating 7 out of 10.
