Thunderkick, an independent slots studio, has recently introduced Eager Beavers, the newest addition to its collection. This slot game features a light-hearted theme with various bonus features aimed at offering players an engaging gaming experience with the potential for significant wins.
Creating dams
Eager Beavers presents a cast of colourful beavers on a six-reel layout, along with fruits, playing card symbols, and a wild symbol represented by a ‘W’ on a wooden log. The game incorporates avalanche wins from the base game, where winning symbols are replaced by new ones, increasing the chances of landing multiple wins in a single spin.
Special wilds
In addition to the base game features, Eager Beavers includes two special wild symbols that enhance the payout potential when included in winning combinations. The wild splash symbol selects an icon on the grid and transforms all instances of that icon into wilds, while the wild fall symbol adds single or stacked wilds to the reels randomly.
Bonus game
Apart from the base game excitement, Eager Beavers offers a cash bonus game triggered by landing three bonus symbols on the reels. This bonus feature replaces regular reels with special reels containing cash symbols with values of up to 100x the bet.
During free spins, players can interact with collect, upgrade, and build symbols. The regular version of each symbol applies a corresponding modifier to all cash icons on the reel, while the super version applies the modifier to all cash icons across the grid.
The collect feature combines all cash values, the upgrade feature assigns multipliers of up to 5x to cash icons, and the build feature expands the grid by up to 10 additional reels. At the end of the free spins, all cash symbols are totaled and paid out alongside regular winnings.
Mike Collins, game product owner at Thunderkick, said:
We’re excited to introduce Eager Beavers, our newest release that we know players will enjoy.
We have created a beautiful and whimsical environment where those beavers eagerly build up the reels, and that’s accompanied by a range of bonus features that offer a visually captivating and potentially rewarding experience.”
Review Overview
Summary
Eager Beavers slot is located over a cartoon beaver dam with six columns of tumbling tiles on which symbols pay both ways adjacently. That means 3+ touching consecutive symbols anywhere in view, diagonally and/or adjacently. You have initially at least two symbols per column but winners are removed and the replacements increase randomly the column heights to a maximum of 10 tiles. Wild modifiers include fall, splash and specials which add random ones, transform one symbol or drop stacked ones randomly. The 6-of-a-kinds pays are 5x beaver or Wild down to 0.4x and scatters can land anywhere. Three of them trigger a cash bonus game whereby the reels can only contain blanks, cash values of 1-100x bet, collect, super collect, upgrade and super upgrade plus build and super build. Collect takes the cash values for its reel, super collect from all reels. Upgrade multiplies randomly all cash on its reel, super upgrade on all of them. Build symbols increase either their own or all column heights for more positions. A one-spin bonus means you'll likely not be eagerly beavering away here for too long.
