bee hive bonanza slot theme, stakes, pays & symbols

Did you know that bees beat their wings an incredible 11,400 times a minute! Even more staggering is that a hive of bees will have to fly over 55,000 miles to make just 1lb of honey. So think of the hard work that's taken place the next time you're spreading a bit of the sweet stuff onto your morning toast. Interesting facts aside, bees are no strangers to the world of online slotting. In more recent times, Push Gaming's hit slot title Wild Swarm proved to be an incredibly popular release and remains in many a casino lobby to this day. Whilst it's a theme that has been done in the past, it hasn't been milked as much as some genres like " The Book of " slots, for example, so when I saw Netent's Bee Hive Bonanza pop up on my screen with an old English medieval feel to it, I was certainly intrigued to find to more about the game. My initial thoughts, though, were that this was a well designed slot, and a fair bit of thought and effort had gone into its creation.

The next obvious point of interest is the paytable and working out what kind of wins we can expect from the slot. Refreshingly, there's not a royal symbol in sight, and making up the pays of the game, we have 7 different coloured tablets, each featuring the king bee. These vary in colour and are separated into two sections. The low values come first, and in the best possible scenario, these can pay up to 6x if between 22-24 appear on the reels at once. Moving on to the premium pays, these can reward you with as little as 0.4x for scatters of between 6-7, with the highest wins coming from 22-24 landing at once, which pays 8x your bet. Whilst there might be plenty of symbols in general on Bee Hive Bonanza, a wild is not one of them, and you won't find any in play across the base game or bonus features.

Entering the hive and spinning for real money play will cost from a minimum of €0.10 to a maximum of €200. There are over 40 bet sizes to choose from in this range which I have to say is impressive. So regardless of your bankroll size, you'll be able to find a suitable stake. Finally, we come to the return to player percentage, which comes in at a respectable rate of 96.09%.

base game & MODIFIERS

Set across a playing format of a 5x5 grid, the Bee Hive Bonanza slot operates upon the scatters pay system. So for a win to be created, you will need a minimum of 6 matching symbols to land in view anywhere upon the playfield. As we discussed in the previous section, the more symbols that form the scatter, the bigger the win you will receive.
