Scruffy Duck Slot Review & Game Bonus

Scruffy Duck slot machine from NetEnt is very loosely based on the ugly ducking tale from Hans Christian Andersen where the ugly ducking turns into a glorious swan.  This fun theme is certainly conveyed well in this addictive, good looking title that has 5 reels, 25 paylines and a max jackpot of 400x.  There is also a free spins bonus round awarding up to 15 free spins, and a 1-3x multiplier. All the details are in the full Scruffy Duck slot review below.

Scruffy Duck Slot Review & Game Bonus

While the tale of the ugly duckling certainly needs no introduction, you may be somewhat less familiar with the Scruffy Duck slot – a fairly recent video slot from NetEnt slots that features five reels and 25 fixed paylines.

Featuring cute and colourful graphics and symbols that depict a family of ducks and their freshly-hatched offspring, Scruffy Duck naturally references the classic fairy tale by Hans Christian Andersen – particularly in its use of expanding wilds. Somewhat imaginatively, the slot’s Scruffy Duck symbol will grow into a beautiful swan and substitute for all other icons if doing so completes a valid payline.

Playable from as little as £0.25 per spin on desktop, mobile and tablet devices, the Scruffy Duck slot machine boasts a maximum base game jackpot of 400x players’ bet per line amount. This prize, however, can be significantly boosted in the game’s main bonus feature, where multipliers worth up to 3x are available.

Time To Ruffle Some Feathers

We say “main bonus” feature because although there are five variants available, the extras in the Scruffy Duck slot are basically confined to a single free spins bonus round. Activated whenever players land three or more free spins symbols anywhere on the reels, they will then be transported to a new screen where they’ll be prompted to choose from a set of five ducks to reveal a random free spins modifier.

Each modifier comes with its own set number of free spins, with the more lucrative modifiers being tempered by a lower number of bonus games. All told, players can land 15 free spins with a 3x multiplier, 12 free spins with all lower value symbols being removed, 10 free spins featuring a 3×3 colossal wild, 8 free spins with random wilds added to the reels and the 6 free spin “double feature”.

Of the quintet, it is certainly this last modifier that is the most rewarding, as this will pick two of the other four options and combine them for a series of highly lucrative spins. Players should note, however, that if they land the random wild modifier, these symbols will not expand to fill the reels.

Ugly Duckling Or Beautiful Swan?

A beautifully simple game with an easy-to-grasp bonus feature and a wide variety of lucrative modifiers, the Scruffy Duck slot is a medium-variance title that is sure to find its place in the hearts of all NetEnt fans.
