Bee Hive Bonanza Slot

Bees are a very important link in our ecosystem, and that’s why environmentalists have been worried about their disappearance. NetEnt seems to have joined the list of companies that want to raise awareness about the importance of bees with its slot Bee Hive Bonanza. As the name suggests, it’s a spinning bonanza with bees in the lead role, but don’t worry – they won’t sting.

It’s a highly volatile slot that uses the Pay Anywhere system to deliver more than solid wins. Avalanche wins are the focus, boosting the slot’s winning potential with consecutive wins. Bee cash values are collected by three different hives, each one carrying a unique modifier. Collected Scatters in the Bonus Round can lead to payouts up to 5,000x the bet in this buzzing slot that has all the marks of a new NetEnt classic.

You can play the Bee Hive Bonanza online slot for free or real money in any NetEnt online casino site.

The apiary slot has a 5x5 grid set against a darkened magenta background showing a field. We won’t lie – we’re a bit disappointed that the grid isn’t a beehive. But we guess it’s much more familiar this way for new players, so no quarrel with it. All the controls are beneath the reels, so you won’t have trouble playing Bee Hive Bonanza for the first time.

In terms of symbols, there are mostly golden, bronze, and silver coins with scribbled inscriptions on them. Bees appear too, with the top ones paying 22-24x for 7 or 8 in a cluster. Remember – this is a Pay Anywhere slot, so it doesn’t have a Wild.

The visuals are wild, and the slot has a kind of medieval inspiration, as heard in the soundtrack and seen through the many castle references. Regardless, it looks perfectly great. We enjoyed the cartoonish vibes and all the wild bees dancing around.

The Bee Hive Bonanza slot is available on a wide range of Android and iOS devices. Developed on the HTML5 platform, it works smoothly on both platforms, and the best part is that you don’t need to download a slot app to your phone – you can play it from a mobile browser instead.

Bets in the Bee Hive Bonanza online slot start from $0.10 to $200 per spin. The action takes place on a Pay Anywhere grid, which is pretty similar to the Cluster Pays engine. They both rely on big groups of symbols being popped and Avalanches to deliver the biggest wins. In this case, the top wins come for 7-8 premiums which can pay over 20x the bet.

You get no Wild here. The math model doesn’t allow it, but the volatility and RTP of 96.09% work in perfect synergy to deliver solid wins without a Wild. There are a few special features too, mostly collection features, that add flair to an already fun base game.

First up are the Avalanches, and you probably know how they work. Every win triggers one, and all winning symbols are removed from the grid and replaced with new ones. This can lead to new wins, Bee symbols, and the all-important Scatters.

The Money Bee feature can unleash three different modifiers. On any spin in the base game or Free spins Round, Bees can appear with values up to x10. These are collected by either a Beehive, Multiplier Beehive, or Adder Beehive symbols. Here’s how these work:

• Beehive. Collects all Bee values on the grid;
• Multiplier Beehive. Doubles the value of the Bees before they’re added to any Beehive;
• Adder Beehive. Raises the value of each Bee before they’re collected in the Beehives.

Combined with the Avalanche, the Money Bee feature can do wonders for the Bees. Even better action is expected in the Bonus Round which is triggered by three to five Honey Pot Scatters.

You get 10, 15, or 20 free spins when you land three, four, or five Honey Pot Scatters respectively. The Bonus Round plays like the base game with the Money Bee feature active for its duration. Additionally, whenever a Scatter lands, it is collected in the meter to the left. As you can see for yourself, a pair of Scatters upgrades the multiplier. The values begin at x2 and continue with x3, x4, and x5, which can create some nice wins.

At the same time, every time you hit a new multiplier, you get a pair of slot free spins, extending your lifeline beyond the original number.

The Bee Hive Bonanza slot RTP is set to a solid 96.09% for a highly volatile slot. Players can hit wins up to 5,000x their bets with the highest multiplier in the Bonus Round.

Bee Hive Bonanza is a fun slot with cartoonish medieval vibes that works well, no matter how unhinged the combination of themes may sound. It’s a Pay Anywhere slot that delivers wins in clusters and has a few surprisingly good and rewarding features active throughout the base game and Bonus Round.

The multiplier Meter in the bonus is not unheard of, but it can take your wins to the next level. Additionally, NetEnt went environmental with this slot, raising awareness about the all-important bees that we can’t live about. Here’s hoping that the next time you see a bee buzzing around you don’t smash it with your shoe.
