Bigger Barn House Bonanza Slot Game Review
The majority of the gameplay occurs on a 5×3 reelset, but it can occasionally expand to a 5×6 configuration, resulting in either 243 or 7,776 ways to win. Players can wager between 20 cents and $40 for each base round, and there are three feature buy options available. The game is highly volatile, with a preferred RTP setting of 96.5%, which remains consistent regardless of how players engage with the game.
Bigger Barn House Bonanza slot features ten paying symbols. These include card ranks from 9 to A, which pay out between 0.15x and 0.2x for five of a kind, along with symbols like wheelbarrows, corn, chicks, chickens, and roosters, which offer payouts ranging from 0.25x to 1.5x for five of a kind. A cunning fox serves as the wild symbol, appearing on reels 2, 3, and 4 to replace any of the aforementioned pay symbols.
Slot Features
Free Spins
Landing 6 or more scatter symbols activates 6 free spins. At the beginning of the round, the locations of the triggering scatters are marked with straw. Throughout the round, if additional scatter symbols appear, they will either mark their spot with straw or upgrade from straw to wood, and then from wood to brick. If a scatter lands on a brick position, a random spot on the screen will be upgraded to the next highlight instead. If all positions are upgraded to brick and scatters land, a payout of 10 times the bet is awarded for each scatter. Landing 3 or more scatters grants an additional +1 free spin.
At the conclusion of the round, the highlighted positions will display a prize value that is then paid out. Straw positions yield between 0.5x to 1.25x, wood positions yield between 1.5x to 6x, and can also reveal the Mini, 2x Mini, or Minor prizes, while brick positions yield between 7.5x to 175x, and can reveal the Mini, 2x Mini, Minor, Major, or Grand prizes. The values for the Mini, Minor, Major, and Grand are 12x, 60x, 500x, and 5,000x, respectively. Additionally, brick highlighted positions may instead reveal a Wheel Bonus trigger symbol rather than a prize value. In such cases, a Wheel Bonus feature will be activated.
Feature Buys
A wager of 100x activates between 6 to 15 free spins, determined by a random number of scatters. By wagering 200x, players can activate the Wheel Feature, while a 300x bet purchases a spin on the Bigger Wheel.
Wheel Bonus
Landing three or more Wheel Bonus symbols in the base game activates rewards from the wheel:
- Mega Egg feature – a large 2×2, 3×3, 5×3, or two 2×2 scatters appear to grant free spins, with starting highlighted positions determined by the locations covered by the large scatter.
- Windmill feature – the Wheel Bonus symbols that triggered the feature move to the right edge of the screen, leaving behind highlights until they exit the view. If additional Wheel Bonus symbols land on the same spots, they are upgraded to the next level. Following this, the free spins round begins with the highlighted spots remaining.
- Barn House feature – the Wheel Bonus symbols that triggered the feature change into brick highlights, subsequently triggering free spins. During this round, any new scatters automatically provide brick highlights.
- Random Jackpot – the Mini, Minor, Major, or Grand jackpot is awarded.
- Bigger Wheel – a new prize is unveiled from the Bigger Wheel.
The Bigger Wheel offers the following, with all free spins taking place on a 5×6 grid:
- Bigger Mega Egg feature – prior to the start of free spins, at least two large scatters of sizes 2×2, 3×3, or 5×3 must land to mark the reels.
- Bigger Windmill feature – before this feature activates, three additional rows are introduced, with all triggering Wheel or Golden Wheel symbols replicated in the same positions as the initial outcome. Wheel Bonus symbols shift to the right, marking and enhancing spots just like in the standard Windmill feature.
- Bigger Barn House feature – Wheel Bonus and Golden Wheel Bonus symbols are replicated across the three new rows, creating brick highlights. As previously mentioned, landing scatters highlight their respective positions with brick.
- Random Jackpot – grants the Major, Grand, or a 25,000x Super Jackpot.
