New Baker’s Treat Slot Promises To Bring Sweet Summer Treats

18+

After the success of their Sweet Alchemy game launch, Play’n GO has decided to stick with the sweet theme with the launch of their Baker’s Treat slot this April.

However, this is a far more grownup fare, and fans of a certain British baking show might recognise enough similarities that it will automatically make you think of long summer afternoons spent in tents. Baking.

Because that’s all English people do all day, right?

Well, now you won’t need to leave your home to get your sweet baked goods; however, will this video slot have a soggy bottom and crumble under pressure?

What is this Baker’s Treat slot all about?

We don’t have a video to show you, but we do have some images and plenty of information on this new Play’n GO slot machine.

There’s a slightly old-fashioned feel to this new casino game; the style reminds of a 1970/80s garden party, with macaroons, carrot cake and blueberry pie all making an appearance.

But that’s not necessarily a bad thing, with movies like Ready Player One buying into nostalgia, why can’t our slots remind us of long lazy summer days gone by?

It’s the Great British Baker’s Treat Bake Off

We’re not sure if we are allowed to put those words together in a sentence without getting some great copyright gods throwing cream pies at our face, but there is no denying the influence.

If you haven’t seen the show, then don’t worry. At best this new Baker’s Treat mobile slot machine is purely inspired by, rather than using any direct branding, images, or even people.

The point isn’t to inspire us all to have a cooking competition, instead, it’s to bring to the forefront images of pleasant summer evenings eating cakes you’ll probably regret later.

Isn’t that what summer is all about?

But will this be a good Play’n GO slot?

The theme is certainly going to be one you either love or hate. We’ve even had comments suggesting this would be perfect for Bingo loving ladies (because only the ladies love baking?).

But whilst we think that’s more than a little small-minded, there’s no denying this sweet theme won’t appeal to everyone.

However, any good slot player knows that if the game mechanics are good, the theme is negotiable.

Whether your favourite game is the Girls with Guns slot, the King of Kaiju game or OMG Kittens by WMS you’ll want to know one thing: forget the icing, what’s in the cake?

The ingredients in this Baker’s Treat mix:

Play’n GO studios have said that this should appeal to casual casino gamblers, but we’re not so sure.

• 5 Reels 3 Rows slot machine
• 15 Paylines
• Min/Max Bet: 0.15 / 75
• Win up to 5,000 times your bet
• Medium to High variance game
• Wild symbol, but no scatter
• Trigger the free spin bonus round by collecting cakes
• Trigger any 5 different free spin bonus round

Sure, the min and max bet are nice and inclusive, but some of these features look hard to trigger and you might have to balance your budget.

But what does it all mean?

It means we are a little unsure of where this Baker’s Treat video slot sits in the Play’n GO slot collection.

They seem to imply that ‘casual’ gamers will love it, but high variance machines generally tend to be fitted more towards experienced gamblers.

On the other hand, this is a very simple machine; you have wilds, 15 paylines and free spins, and that’s it. So yeah, it should be open for slot players of all ranges to spin.

But how you trigger the free spins, and the number of different bonus features within, might mean you’ll have to budget wisely and know when to walk away; again calling on experience.

There’s hope with the stacked symbols

Play’n GO haven’t explicitly said say, but we suspect that all the lovely high paying cakes on this Baker’s Treat game will come stacked.

Why are we jumping to these conclusions? Because in their own words:

“There are 5 unique Flour Power Spin features in this game, each triggered by collecting a specific HP Cake Token 3 times. A Token is collected whenever a full stack of HPs land on their associated reel.”

Flour power spins are the free spin rounds. HP stands for ‘high paying symbol’.

That means that in order to trigger the free spins you’ll need to find a stack of 3 high paying symbol on the reel to collect a token towards triggering the free spins.

And whilst that might sound like a long-winded way of getting to the bonus round, remember this: stacked symbols generally means more and bigger wins.

So is this a spotted dick or a jam rolly polly?

Hard to say really – it seems to be a real mix bags of treats and we’re not sure what to make of it, or if it will find a willing audience.

However, Play’n GO have consistently been creating some of our favourite slots in the last couple of years, from the excellent and unique Viking Runecraft slot to the far more traditional Book of Dead machine.

So we are not going to doubt them now, instead, we will simply say this:

Anyone who knows anything about British baking knows that both a Spotted Dick and a Jam Rolly Polly are excellent desserts.

So either way, we suspect we will be more than satisfied.

Play on Play’n GO slots at our recommended mobile casino, and we promise you won’t be disappointed till you wait to try this Baker’s Treat on the 12th of April.
