Let’s hear a Twit Twoo for What a Hoot, the owl themed five reel video slot from Microgaming. Players will join a number of owls at their nutty party which includes features such as wilds and scatters. There aren’t any excluding factors on this slot either as bets can be placed from just 1p per spin whilst high rollers can challenge for the $25,000 maximum jackpot.

What A Hoot Slot Theme

A trio of owls are throwing a party which includes plenty of music, food and entertainment. There are a variety of reel icons to set the scene with a blue owl blowing a party whistle, the yellow owl reading a book and the red owl clutching a drink. There’s also a magician owl, wild treehouse, fireflies, berries, horse chestnuts, acorns and sunflower seed icons.

Judging by the music we’d say these owls are having a great time as ambient sound effects include laughter, chatting and a bongo drum track which plays continuously in the background.

Betting Options and More Functions

What a Hoot offers a range of bets beginning with a 0.25 wager. These increase steadily to a maximum $45 which is calculated by multiplying the coin value, lines and coins per line together. Thankfully players are able to change all of these options to suit their needs, it’s simple and puts a choice of wagers back into the hands of the people using the game.

What a Hoot Slot Features

The Tree icon jumps and jiggles whenever a winning combination is formed. It achieves this by substituting for any single icon on any reel. The scattered jar icon is the only graphic which the wild cannot substitute for.

The owls light up their party with fireflies in screw top jars. These are scattered icons which will award prizes when three, four or five appear in any position. These combination pay 2x, 10x or 50x the total number of credits staked.
