Bee Hive Bonanza General Characteristics

Due to the high volatility of this slot machine, players should come prepared with a sizable bankroll and suitable bet sizes. You should be picky about where you play since the RTP (return to player) might be either 96.09% or 92.08%. We were unable to locate any data on the frequency of hits or bonuses/free spins. The main action takes place over 5 reels and 5 rows, but there are no paylines in play thanks to the Scatter Pays mechanism. To win with Scatter Pays, you need to get at least six of the same symbol anywhere on the reels. The minimum wager is only 0.1 EUR, the highest is 200 EUR, and the maximum win is 1,000,000 EUR, thanks to the Maximum Win Multiplier of x5,000. There are 7 main symbols, plus Scatter Symbol, and Bonus Symbol.

Bee Hive Bonanza Bonus Features

Avalanche Feature

Before an Avalanche begins, all of the symbols on the reels burst and vanish simultaneously, whether they are part of a winning scatter combination, a Bee symbol during the Money Bee bonus, or a Scatter symbol that has been added to the collect meter during Free Spins.

Money Bee Feature

The Bee symbol may award 1, 2, 5, or 10 times the wager when it appears on the reels during the main game or Free Spins. While in the Money Bee feature, if the reels include at least one Beehive, Adder Beehive, or Multiplier Beehive, all Bee symbols vanish and their value is added to the value of the Beehive, Adder Beehive, or Multiplier Beehive on the reels, resulting in a win.

Here is the list of symbols that you can see during this feature and their descriptions:

1. Adder Beehive – boosts the value of all Bee symbols on the reels by the bet amount before adding them to any Beehive, Multiplier Beehive, or Adder Beehive.

2. Beehive – sums up the values of all Bee symbols that occur on the reels..

3. Multiplier Beehive –  doubles the value of each Bee symbol on the reels, then adds that value to the value of each Beehive, Multiplier Beehive, and Adder Beehive on the reels.   

In the event that both the Multiplier and Adder Beehives land on the reels at the same time, the Multiplier Beehive's effect will be used first.

Free Spins

When 3, 4, or 5 Scatters appear anywhere on the reels during the main game, you'll be rewarded with 10, 15, or 20 free spins, accordingly.

During Free Spins, any Scatters that land on the reels are added to the collect meter and then vanish. Each 3 Scatter symbols provide 2 Free Spins and a Multiplier: 3 Scatters = x2, 6 = x3, 9 = x4, 12 = x5.

Buy Feature

The Buy Feature allows you to activate free spins. The price of free spins activation is 100 times the wager. In order to initiate 10, 15, or 20 Free Spins, the main game will spin once more.

Our experience playing Bee Hive Bonanza

When we initially started the game, we didn't think much of it beyond the fact that it was just one of the numerous slots out there with a cartoon theme. It was the time to test this slot with 200 EUR bankroll and 200 spins. We set our bet to 1 EUR and started our first 100 spins. As a result of our attempt, we lost a total of 59 EUR since we never got to the Free Spins round, only got the Money Bee feature a few times, and had many spins end with nothing happening. We started another 100 spins with hopes of getting a better result this time. During this session, we won a hefty amount of 95.50 EUR during the Free Spins bonus and 18 EUR from the Money Bee feature. After 200 spins, we earned a total of 22.90 EUR, therefore the journey was profitable. Put this machine's wacky bonus features to the test, you won't regret it.
