Introduction
Dive for some huge payouts in rich with amazing features and modifiers slot machine from NetEnt. Scruffy Duck maybe doesn’t have the most attractive design in the online slot industry - it is set in a local pond - but it is guaranteed to keep spinners delighted with a lot of different gameplay features, and Free Spins with expanding Wilds and many other intriguing bonuses are part of them. This fairly simple slot machine is just as attractive as any NetEnt slot machine online, although it looks simple and has kind of cartoon graphics reminiscent of DuckTales cartoon characters. The game also employs a little clumsy and fuzzy background music to guarantee that it has no potential to raise players' adrenaline levels. And it's not so bad if you need a little rest or to get away from your problems.

Scruffy Duck Features
Expanding Wilds. Wild symbols can stand for any other symbols, but not for Scatter symbols. While playing the slot, Wild symbols can grow to take place of the whole reel if it makes a win.
Free Spins. Scatter symbols land on any place on the third, fourth and fifth reels and in this case, the feature is activated and players see the pound with ducks to pick on, with such extra modifiers in them:
- Multiplier which gives the player 15 Free Spins with any wins tripled.
- Symbol Removal activates 12 free spins, and you won't see low-paying symbols on the game field.
- Colossal Wild activate 10 free spins with 2x2 or 3x3 Wilds that land only on the second, third, and fourth reels. Such Wilds may be shown in whole view or just partially, and they split into 2-9 separate wilds if they are part of winning combinations.
- Random Wilds activate 8 free spins and between two to five Wilds randomly take place on the reels on every spin. Random Wilds don’t expand and don’t stand by any active wilds that grow.
- Double Feature activates 6 free spins and two random features from the list.
Our Experience Playing Scruffy Duck
Standard entry with 200 EUR in the wallet and a bet of 1 EUR for 300 spins. Scruffy Duck was a pleasant surprise already on the 37th spin and we got access to Free Spins. As an extra feature, we got Giant Wilds, which greatly accelerated our enrichment. Our highest win was 27 times bet. We ended this round with a nice win of 29.63 EUR. After 40 regular spins, which did not bring anything significant, we again could land 3 Scatter symbols. This time we caught luck by the tail and we got 2 features from ducks at once - Multiplier and Random Wild. Unfortunately, there are not many Free Spins with such modifiers and we got only 36.42 EUR this time. The rest of the spins did not give a similar result and we did not earn much. The best case was 14 times the bet. Free spins with a Giant Wild symbol were waiting for us on the next 100 spins again. This time we collected only 15.12 EUR, which was safely lost in the next spins. The best multiplier was 17 times the bet and as a result of our test, we had plus 39 EUR in the wallet.
Verdict
Easy, understandable, pleasant, unobtrusive - all this can be said about this slot. After playing it, you will hardly feel anything other than relaxation and pleasure. Scruffy Duck is the type of those slots that are quite simple to fall for. The laid-back music and a large cast of funny characters make the game as relaxing as it gets. In addition to the pleasant setting, NetEnt has effectively balanced the slot between a main game with expanding wilds and good possibilities for wins and a Free Spins game with five interesting alternative modifiers. Which is the best option? While each has something unique to offer, the maximum prizes differ, and the final winner is revealed here.
