The beer halls and festivals of Germany are so widely known that thousands of tourists frequent them every year. Steinfest is a five reel video slot which takes a look at how festivals began by packing in stunning graphics over 9 paylines. Gameplay includes wilds, scatters and the chance to choose the victor in a drinking game inspired bonus game.

Steinfest Slot Theme

Two giant beer kegs set the scene at the top of the reels. The beer swilling, lighthearted festival known as Steinfest is beautifully presented with smiles all round on the reels. It really does look like a laugh a minute.

The obligatory beer mugs are joined by two beer wenches, an accordion player, bass drummer, tuba player, steinfest logo, turkey, ham, bratwurst, hotdog and pretzel icons on the reels. Each is animated to a high standard, some of which really get into the spirit of the occasion.

You’ll struggle to find a video slot with such a variety of sound effects and animation. A brass band plays in the background and various icons cause an accordion tune to play. The bonus round is equally impressive as an upbeat tune plays as buxom wenches serve thirsty patrons beer after beer.

Betting Options and More Functions

Wagers are structured between 0.01 and £/$/€22.50 which gives players many options to choose from. There’s even an expert mode which gives players three different automatic play options, including x5 and x10 quick spin options.

Steinfest Slot Features

The Steinfest symbol is a stacked wild which can substitute for all other icons disregarding the inn sign and bonus scatters.

Three or more Inn sign icons will award free spins with a 2x multiplier. You’ll receive 10 free spins which play automatically using the same coins and lines in play when the feature was triggered. The stacked wilds also transform into double stacked wilds which drastically increases your chances of winning a prize.

The Pick a Patron bonus game is awarded when at least three bonus icons appear on the reels. You pick from twelve different patrons who chug mugs of ale before passing out and being dragged away by a pretty beer wench. You’ll get to choose up to five patrons depending on the number of triggering icons.

Our Take on Steinfest

Beer and gambling don’t usually result in a positive outcome but in this instance we think Steinfest melds them into a match made in heaven. The combination of graphics, animations, sound effects and features makes it one of the most comprehensively enjoyable slots around at the moment.
