Big Buck Bunny

If the name Big Buck Bunny sounds familiar to you, it’s maybe because you’ve seen the short animated movie by the same name.

Movie gathered a lot of attention in 2008, was seen by millions, won more than a couple of awards so Merkur Gaming jumped on the bandwagon and developed online video slot with this big, chubby, white bunny as the main protagonist.

Visually Big Buck Bunny looks like a basic Merkur Gaming video slot, rather simple and not very much impressive. Although animations are taken from the movie and look rather good. Green field as the background and kind of generic soundtrack would hardly get you excited about this slot but interesting features and nice payouts might.

This is 5-reel slot with three rows and just five paylines. The wager is in the range between 0.5 $ and 100$ per spin. Reels are framed with neat yellow borders which stand out nicely on the light green background.

When it comes to symbols, low-value symbols include standard 10, J, K, Q and A. Higher-value symbols are three bullying rodents Frank, Rinky and Gimera also characters from the movie and Big Buck Bunny’s biggest foes. Lining them on the reels at the end of the spin would be great for you since they bring nice rewards, especially Frank.

The star of the reels represents the wild and can substitute all symbols except the scatter. Lining up 3 or more wilds will get you nice payouts. Five Big Buck Bunny wilds on the payline will get you the payout 1.000 times your bet.

The Scatter is represented by the Big Buck Bunny Logo and is responsible for triggering the bonus feature. This symbol appears only on the reels 1, 3 and 5.

Free spins Feature

Landing 3 scatter symbols will get you to the free spin feature.

You are rewarded with 10, 15, 25 or 50 free spins. The amount of spins you receive is completely random. This feature has potential for some good payouts given the fact that the win on this feature is going to be multiplied by 3. Landing 3 scatter icons during free spins will retrigger new Free Game Feature but in that case triple multiplier won’t be used.

Gamble feature

Beside base game and free spins feature, Big Buck Bunny offers the gamble feature which gets activated every time you win.

After every win, no matter how big or small, you can choose to cash in your winning or continue with spinning in the base game. Or if you’re true gambler at heart, you’ll take the offered opportunity and try to double your winnings.

You can choose from two gamble games. In the first one of the two you have to choose the color of the hidden card. The correct answer will double your payout. Second gamble game is the ladder game. You climb up the ladder with money values and if you’re lucky, you’ll maybe win 140 $ which is the maximum amount of money you can win.

Our Take

Big Buck Bunny, at the first glance, may look like some basic slot game, not offering very much to the player but with Free Spins Feature and Gamble Feature it offers just enough to keep you interested in spinning its reels.
