Game Overview
Leading software developers never pass up the opportunity to get a slot release lined up for special holidays, and the holiday in question for Easter Eggspedition from Play’n Go is evident from the title. That’s right, 2024 is flying by like nobody’s business, as we’re already approaching the Easter period and the numerous online slot games that will undoubtedly accompany it. This is the first new Easter slot we’ve seen this year, so it looks like Play’n Go is trying to get in there first with a chocolate egg-inspired title that has 5 reels, 3 rows, 20 paylines, a medium variance, a return of 96.29% and a decent max win of 10,000x the stake.
A quick first look at the reels will tell you that this slot focuses on the Easter Bunny, Easter Eggs, and the Egg Hunts many kids enjoy each year. The question is, will Easter Eggspedition (a clever name, by the way) provide an excellent slot title for people to play after a long day of hiding chocolate eggs around their homes and gardens? The base game definitely won’t, as there’s nothing of note to speak of about it – but the Instant Win Bonus game offers some potential as this is where it’s theoretically possible to nail down that 10,000x the stake.
If you want to have a taste of this Easter-themed slot to see if it will prove an excellent addition to your chocolate munching slot playlist – power up the Easter Eggspedition slot demo, it’s free to play below.
Easter Eggspedition Slot Theme, Stakes, Pays & Symbols
While there are nowhere near as many new online slot games released over Easter compared to the many new Christmas slots we get each year, game providers still manage to bolster their portfolios further with a few cheeky titles. I can’t say there are that many I’ve particularly enjoyed or seen go on to become a long-term success, but I guess that confirms they’re often nothing more than quick cash-grab style slots or clones. It is understandable to a point because developers would probably rather their best work has an evergreen theme rather than a holiday-themed slot that most people will probably only play over the said holiday.
You might have noticed I mentioned clones, and there was a reason for this – and that’s because Easter Eggspedition is precisely that. If you’ve played Play’n Go’s Rocco Gallo, that’s the same slot you’re getting here, aside from a change of theme. All other metrics between the two titles match, including the payouts on the reels – something I’ll look at next. The Super Bunny is the best-paying symbol acting as the wild and substituting all regular symbols – you’ll get 50x the stake for a five of a kind win. The Easter Egg Sign is next up with a 25x top payout, while the Pot of Eggs, Paint Brushes, and Candy Bowl are worth up to 20x, 15x, and 10x, respectively. The less exciting low pays come via five-symbol combinations of the Ace and King worth 4.5x, the Queen at 3x, and 2.5x and 2x for the Jack and Ten, respectively.
Play’n Go’s standard bet selector slider is in play at the bottom of the reels, offering players a total of 17 stakes to choose from. These start from a minimum of €0.10 a spin and max out at €100.
Easter Eggspedition Slot Base Game & Modifiers
Those payouts are nothing to write home about, and unfortunately, neither is the base game. Aside from the wild symbol, which can help create winning combos, there’s nothing else to look forward to other than hopefully winning enough to keep your balance ticking over until you trigger Easter Eggspedition’s main bonus game. Landing those combos requires three or more matching symbols to line up across one of the 20 paylines.
Easter Eggspedition Slot Bonus Features
The bonus game does at least offer the potential to bring in payouts of up to 10,000x, and to trigger it, you’ll need three or more scatter symbols to hit the reels in any position on a spin.
Instant Prize Bonus Feature
The Easter Eggspedition bonus is a Hold and Win style game where you have an initial 3 respins, which reset back to 3 each time a special symbol lands. The only symbols that can land on the reels are:
- CashPot Symbols: These can reveal cash values ranging from 0.5x and 10x your stake that are added to the collection pot above the reels or a 2x multiplier, which doubles the value of that pot.
- Super Bunny: Can only land in one of the framed positions on reels two and four and awards the current collection pot value when it does. The pot’s value does not reset once collected, meaning there is a chance you can win it again.
- Foxy Loot: This symbol will reset the collection pot value to zero.
The bonus game will end once you run out of respins, having not landed a new special symbol for three spins running.
Pros
- Good max win of 10,000x.
Cons
- A Rocco Gallo clone.
Easter Eggspedition Slot Review Final Thoughts
Easter Eggspedition is the type of slot that might do the job for some of you over the Easter period - it has a decent, if far from spectacular, max win, and the bonus game can throw up some good surprises from time to time. However, I highly doubt it is a slot that the majority will play once you’re done with the easter eggs for another year.
