Teddy Bear’s Picnic is a very cute and fun game coming from NextGen Gaming. The game looks like a children’s cartoon or color book so it’s a bit weird to see it as an online slot machine. Still the game has a pleasant design and background music so you can spend a lot of time playing it without getting bored.
This slot has 25 paylines and 5 reels so the minimum bet to play it is 0.25 euros. I almost always play it at 0.50 bet whenever my balance is higher. If you take a look at the paytable you will be very disappointed because the symbols including the wild pay very little. At first look I don’t think you will find this game capable of some incredible wins, but she can surprise you from time to time.
This game has 2 features. The first is the Teddy Bear Wild feature and it is triggered randomly. Here after a spin the bear appears and awards extra wilds on the reels. This feature awards small to medium wins. The second feature in this game is the free spins bonus. It is triggered when you get 3 or more picnic baskets anywhere on the reels. You are awarded with 8 free spins but every wild that lands on the reels remains in its position for the remainder of the free spins. Also the Teddy Bear appears more often to award more wilds. That is why the payout for 5 wilds on a winning payline is so low.
Like any other slot game you can have some big wins in the bonus round or be very disappointed. The first time I played this game I was really amazed because in the first bonus round I had a win of about 50 x bet and in the second bonus round a win of about 150 x bet with lots of wilds on the reels. Other times I would get only 2-3 wilds and a win of 5-20 x bet. Now I spend about 100 spins on a 0.50 bet and hope for a quick good bonus round.
