How To Play Bonus Bears Mobile Slot
The Bonus Bears mobile slot is what happens when a designer runs out of ideas. That said, this still has plenty of Playtech genius.
Man this is a lazy theme. It’s not quite as bad as the Dr Lovemore slot by the same games provider, but still. Not up to the usual high standard – even the older games like Great Blue are beautiful.
What you get here, with the Bonus Bears slot machine, is an average looking game, that feels like a cartoon from the 1980’s.
You can’t tell us that the bear, with the freaky white eyes and screaming ‘oooh yeah’ on a win, isn’t on crack or cocaine. Even the park ranger looks like she moonlights at the local strip club.
So the theme didn’t do it for us. Thank-god, then, that this iOS and Android slot saves itself with decent bonus games.
Wilds that trigger free spins and scatters that trigger mini-games
You’ll have to get 3 wilds on reels 2, 3 and 4 in order to get 15 free spins with a 3x multiplier.
It means you usually start the free spins fairly well already, and we’ve had wins of up to 60 times our bet.
That said, it’s the scatters and the mini-games that give you the best wins, as you pick a tree for the bear to climb and collect honey.
Choose the right tree, and wins of upwards of 100 times your bet aren’t far off.
Bonus games come often, action stays lively
This Bonus Bears slot keeps true to it’s name. The wins you’ll find here are in the 2 bonus games, not the base game.
But the action stays fairly consistent, and if it wasn’t for the theme, we might have found ourselves playing for far longer as we got some decent results.
That said, it never quite grabbed us as so many awesome Playtech slots have in the past, and we suspect this Bonus Bears slot on mobile will be quickly forgotten in favour of the likes of Plenty O’ Fortune or the wonderfully simple Nian Nian You Yu.
Still, if you love high bears, and stripper rangers, nothing wrong with a few spins on a decent easy-playing game.

Bonus Bears Bonus Features
Wild & Free Spins: The bear symbol is wild and substitutes for all symbols except scatter.
Get a wild symbol on reels 2, 3 and 4 simultaneously and you'll trigger 15 free spins with a 3x multiplier. These can be re-triggered.
Scatters and Click Me Bonus: The bee hives are scatter symbols and 5 will give you 100 times your bet.
If you get 3 or more, you'll start a simple click me bonus where you pick from one of 5 trees for the bear to climb. Every honey pot the bear finds awards you a cash prize. Collecting 5 honey pots, or finding buzzing bees, will end the feature.
