Eager Beavers

Eager Beavers is a video slot developed by Thunderkick with a lighthearted theme centered around industrious beavers constructing a dam. The game's atmosphere is cheerful and light, accentuated by cartoon visuals, a banjo soundtrack, and the sounds of the forest.

The gameplay revolves around a unique 6-reel layout with a twist. Each reel can hold 2 to 10 symbols, creating a dynamic playing field with a potential for 1,000,000 ways to win. Scoring a win triggers cascading wins, where winning symbols disappear and new symbols fall in from above, potentially increasing the number of symbols on each reel.

Several Wild features add excitement to the base game. Wild symbols substitute for most other symbols to complete winning combinations. Special Wild symbols come in two varieties:

• Wild Splash (Fish Symbol): When part of a winning combination, this symbol transforms a random selection of other symbols on the reels into Wilds.
• Wild Fall (Log Symbol): Upon activation, this symbol triggers a random number of Wild symbols to fall onto the reels in random positions.

An additional Wild feature, Wild Rapids, can be randomly triggered during gameplay. Wild Rapids places a random number of Wild symbols at the top of one or more reels, further boosting win potential.

Landing 3 Scatter symbols (gold nuggets) activates the Cash Bonus Game. Here, the standard playing grid is replaced with one featuring empty wooden boxes. These boxes are filled with new symbols during the bonus, including:

• Cash Value Symbols: Award a cash value between 1x and 100x the bet.
• Collect Symbols: Add the value of all Cash Value symbols on the current reel to the total win.
• Super Collect Symbols: Add the value of all Cash Value symbols on all reels to the total win.
• Upgrade Symbols: Multiply the value of all Cash Value symbols on the current reel by a random multiplier between 2x and 5x.
• Super Upgrade Symbols: Multiply the value of all Cash Value symbols on all reels by a random multiplier between 2x and 5x.
• Build Symbols: Increase the height of the current reel by a random number of empty positions, up to a maximum of 10 symbols.
• Super Build Symbols: Increase the height of all reels by a random number of empty positions, up to a maximum of 10 symbols.

At the end of the Cash Bonus Game, all Cash Value symbols are added together for a final payout.

An Interesting Feature: Bet+ and Bonus Buy

Eager Beavers offers an optional Bet+ feature that increases the bet cost but enhances the chance of triggering the Cash Bonus Game. Three Bet+ options are available, with increasing bet multipliers and higher probabilities of activating the bonus round.

Players can also choose to directly purchase the Cash Bonus Game using the Bonus Buy feature. This bypasses the base game entirely and grants immediate entry to the bonus round for a set cost.

The combination of expanding reels, cascading wins, and various Wild features creates a dynamic gameplay experience in Eager Beavers. The Cash Bonus Game, with its unique symbols and the potential for increasing win multipliers, adds another layer of excitement. Notably, the Bet+ and Bonus Buy features cater to players who prefer to focus directly on the bonus round and its high win potential, making Eager Beavers an attractive option for high-rollers and those seeking a more volatile slot experience.
