Beam Boys Bonus Features

There are just a few features in this gamble worth your intense attention. Let's tackle them in order.

Alterable Volatility

The first thing you should know about this game is its alterable volatility, which could be of just two possible alternatives — ‘Normal’ and ‘Extreme’. Click the corresponding button on the left side to switch volatility to ‘Extreme’ or not click to retain the ‘Normal’ mode, which is enabled by default. That will guarantee you Medium-Low volatility. Note that Medium volatility gives you smaller wins but in a more frequent way, whereas an Extreme one guarantees you rare but more big prizes. For the slot version with the highest RTP, the value of the last one is 96.35% in the ‘Normal’ mode and 96.26% in the ‘Extreme’ one.

Wild Rows

This function is managed by Cat symbols that land only within 2 - 6 reels, immediately shooting leftward with a laser beam upon hitting the playfield. Ever since that moment, the Cat symbol and every single position in the row that is covered by that laser beam become Wild. And, by that, we mean each tile of that Wild Row substitutes any paying symbol to bring you a possible win.

Scatter

You need three or more Scatters to fall on the playfield simultaneously to get a bonus FS game triggering. But the more Scatters you’ll get, the more FS is due:

Scatters’ quantity	Number of FS
3	5
4	10
5	20
6	40

Free Spins 

During a bonus game, there are also retriggers possible thanks to 2 or 3 Scatters landing simultaneously. The first case grants you 2 extra FS, while the second — as many as 4 ones.

Buy Bonus 

There are as many as four available options to choose from:

• BonusHunt FeatureSpins (RTP: 96.32% for the 'Normal' mode and 96.38% for the 'Extreme' one) — 10 times increases the chances of a bonus game triggering and costs x5 by the stake. 
• Wide Spectrum FeatureSpins (RTP: 96.3% for the 'Normal' mode and 96.32% for the 'Extreme' one) — guarantees at least one Laser Wild Cat symbol landed on 2 - 6 reels and costs x50 to the stake.
• Narrow Spectrum FeatureSpins (RTP: 96.3% for the 'Normal' mode and 96.4% for the 'Extreme' one) — guarantees at least one Laser Wild Cat symbol landed on 4 - 6 reels and costs x200 to the stake.
• Photonic Fur Bonus (RTP: 96.32% for the 'Normal' mode and 96.33% for the 'Extreme' one) — guarantees bonus game with 10, 20, or 40 free spins and costs x110 to the stake.

Our Experience Playing Beam Boys

Now on, the only thing is missing to decide whether this slot is worth gambling. And that is the experience of playing it with money. Therefore, we've experimented with 300 spins and €200 of balance. Due to that, we used just a €1 stake per spin, hoping to earn some money within the playing duration. Also, note that we played the slot with an RTP value of 96.35% in the so-called ‘Normal’ mode (Medium-Low Volatility).

During each hundred spins, we’ve had the triggering of a bonus FS game. The first FS round brought us just €15.6, whereas the Wild Rows feature earned as much as €31.4. During the base game, we got 40 wins, varying from €0.1 to €4.3. Sadly, 28 prizes turned out to be lower than the bet level (€1). After the 100th spin, there was €164.7 on our balance.

Within the 2nd hundred spins, an FS round gave us €45.1, while Wild Rows gathered, this time, €62.5. Also, there were 44 regular wins (28 out of those were less than the stake amount). These were ranging from €0.2 to €26.6. The game account was at the €193.1 level upon the 200th spin.

The third FS game brought us the most — €126.9. Wild Rows reaped during the 3rd hundred spins another €34.8. The number of regular wins appeared the lowest — 31, including 19 that were less than €1. Base game prizes varied from €0.1 to €11.1. After the 300th spin gone, our balance was €264.9. Hence, we successfully earned as many as €64.9.

Despite frequent wins, most of them weren’t that big. Despite being single €11.1 and €26.6 prizes, such high amounts of wins weren’t often awarded. Moreover, the majority of wins turned less than the stake. Yet, the high frequency of FS triggering has compensated for all the mentioned drawbacks, granting the final income of as much as €64.9.

Here are all the statistics about these 300 spins:

Beam Boys Verdict

So, who would be pleased to play this game? Undoubtedly, this title is created for those keen on games with sci-fi plots. The game's style goes well with cyberpunk's gloomy universe infested by owners with bionic body parts of supernatural abilities.

If the setting and visuals aren't what you look for first when choosing gambles, then you'll be glad to know that this game is well comfortable for those high-rollers and casual players. Just pick the needed volatility mode and enjoy the game. Yet, as we demonstrated, even Medium-volatility mode can provide you big wins due to FS rounds, which have pleased us with their frequent triggering. 

The only drawbacks we found here are low base game wins and that Wild Rows is the single bonus feature introduced in this slot since free spins are just another mode, which again is proposed to use this function, only this time, for free. So, through time, the slot might get boring due to that. Also, beware of versions of this game with low RTP since it may vary from 96.35% to 88.25%. On the other hand, as long as the slot pays, it will never get boring for true punters. And this slot can pay big wins up to x12,500 by the stake.
