The Hamsteads Slot Game Review

The Hamsteads Intro

The Hamsteads slot is similar to the 'Sylvanian Families' collection of toys where animals were transformed to have human personalities and live day-to-day human lives. The Hamsteads take this idea one stage further through a family of hamsters in a 5-reel 9 line video slot. With a top award of 5,000 coins where coin values can be as high as 5.00, you are surely in for a family-filled treat with the Hamsteads. There is a scatter symbol, wild icon and a special bonus feature available. The Hamsteads video slot is a relaxed paced addition to the often ferocious world of slots gaming.

Review

In the Hamsteads online slot, the family of hamsters provides a hilarious setting for a video slot machine through their mundane appearances and miserable faces yet with big prizes on offer. Like many CryptoLogic games, the speed of the reel animation and sounds, including those of the lesser icons, are taken from the same stock library used in many other similar online games. This however isn't a bad thing as the beautifully comic illustrations of the specially designed symbols have their own animations and sounds specifically added to create a more absorbing atmosphere. Look out for Dado and his huge grin, little wavy dance and witty accompanying music. The two special symbols of the toaster (scatter) and Dado (wild and top award symbol) will be the main symbols you will look for to trigger off special devices, the bonus game. The Hamsteads video slot exudes a peaceful atmosphere through a tranquil setting.

For gamers who would rather play a less invigorating slots game with features not over-complicated, look no further than The Hamsteads slot. It provides a tranquil setting ideal to win you prizes with no need to increase your blood pressure.

Wild Symbol

The wild symbol of Dado, the father of the family, will transform into other symbols where possible to create more combinations to win you prizes. If you manage to expose him across an active payline five times then you will win the top award.

Scatter Symbol

The toaster is the scatter symbol that will return your total bet to you providing you spin two or more across the reels in no particular order, nor is it necessary for them to fall upon a payline. Show three or more then you will be taken to bonus game to earn yourself more prizes.

Bonus Round

When you scatter three or more toaster symbols across the reels you will be granted up to five rounds of the bonus game. You are taken to The Hamsteads' house where you will see nine windows ahead of you. The aim is to open the shutters and match three of the same character to win a prize. Even if there are no matching characters you will still receive a consolation prize making this a very generous game in the world of slot extras.
