Barkin Mad Slot Review
Barcrest has brought us yet another feature-rich game, with colorful graphics and fun bonuses. It may not show the most charming pooches, but it’s certainly entertaining. The graphics are very nice and the colorful design and backdrop are part of what makes this game so interesting to play. Although, maybe they could have turned the soundtrack down a notch.
The game offers 5 reels and a total of 10 paylines. The RTP could have also been better, it’s in the range of 94% to 96%. But when did that ever stop anyone from enjoying a game full of great bonuses? And our favorite Barcrest big bet offer makes for another fantastic feature in this slot.
Special Features
Barkin’ Mad is a great experience for anyone, but for dog lovers especially. The symbols on the reels feature the standard playing card letters and a few four-legged friends. They have the adorable Sausage Dogs, Basset Hounds, Bulldogs and Chihuahuas.
Let’s start with our favorite part in this game and that is the Big Bet feature. To activate you simply need to click on the button that says ‘Big Bet’ on it. It will offer you to buy 5 freespins for the price of either £20 or £30. Each of those options will grant you different features, so choose carefully. And while this may sound like a really bad idea at first, wait until you’ve tried it – it offers chances for big wins.
Both options will give you the opportunity of triggering the Showtime bonus wheel. It will appear at random after you’ve landed a winning spin and will grant you either a multiplier or spins for the freespins. The multiplier can be anywhere from 1x to 5x, whereas the number of freespins you win can be from 10 to 14. If you land the freespins feature, the game will offer you to exchange your winnings from that spin for the freespins. If you do so, the regular freespins will be plaid with locked wilds.
This means that throughout the duration of the bonus features, any wild symbols that appear will remain in place, as the rest of the symbols continue spinning. And this is something to look out for, as it offers opportunities for great wins, especially if you manage to land 5 wilds.
The Big Bet feature allows you to trigger freespins on its own, too. All you will need is to land as little as two scatters on the reels.
Summary
Barkin Mad is a great game, with a really fun bonus feature. Don’t let the price of it fool you, because landing bonuses is a piece of cake in this game. We genuinely enjoyed playing this game and it’s one of the best out there.
