Sometimes it’s good to get away from the world of hi-tech casino games. Sometimes it’s nice to feel homely while you’re playing in a casino. And sometimes it’s good to be brought back to childhood and feel like a part of a cartoon movie. All that and more is offered to you by “Bunko Bonanza”, a premium slot presented by RTG.

‘Bunko Bonanza’ is a 5-reel, 20-line slot, which introduces the player to its cozy world of muffins, doughnuts, crisps, and other home-made specialties that our grandmothers used to make. It’s notable from the very beginning that the creators of this slot paid particular attention to its background, which is has the same homely spirit as the rest of the slot. Apart from the above mentioned edible symbols, the slot also features poker symbols shaped as candles on top of colorful muffins. And if with all this food you’re still able to think about money, there are a Wild Symbol, a Scatter Symbol, a multiplier, and some great free spins to help you increase your account balance.

You can invest up to 20 coins per spin, and the value of each coin ranges between $0.01 and $5, so if you’re into high stakes, you can play with as much as $100 per spin. And remember, if you increase your bet, your winnings will follow.

Wild Symbol:

The Bell is a symbol which will replace any other symbol to form a winning combination. This rule does not work for Scatter symbols, as those are independent. But there’s another benefit of the Wild Symbol – the winnings form the combinations formed with its help will be doubled.

Scatter Symbol:

Everyone wants to see as many of these symbols on the reels, as possible. Why, you wonder? Because three Bunko Dice anywhere on the machine mean that you’ll get as much as 21 free spins. However, that’s not all. Depending on the starting roll of Bonko Dice, the winnings in free spins can be multiplied by 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6. In addition, the feature can be retriggered, so that you get either another 21 spin, or another 5 spins. You’ll be awarded with 21 free games if you roll the same Bunko Bonus number as at the beginning. In other case, you’ll get those 5 spins. And again, the story doesn’t end here. All the prizes won during the free spins with the help of one or more Bells, will be doubled for up to 12x.

Progressive Jackpot:

This random jackpot is something everyone wishes for. It can be won at the end of each spin, and if you’re lucky enough to actually be struck by one, it will be added to your other winnings.

At the end, only one objection. It’s quite a pity that such a great slot, with such fabulous graphics and theme, shouldn’t have better sounds. I feel that’s what would make it much closer to perfection. However, I assure you I didn’t mind playing it for a long time as it is. And I also assure you that the warm, homely feeling prevailed in my mood for a long time after.
