Big Bamboo

Playing the online slot games at our casino site always makes for some thrilling entertainment, but what makes things even more fun is when those new titles come with bonus features that leave you sitting on the edge of your seat. Big Bamboo is one of the UK's latest online slots to host a unique way of awarding bonus play, which is actually becoming a trend among studios releasing online casino games. Yes, you’ll find free spins, multipliers and wilds, but they don't get served in the traditional way. You'll also find up to 50,000x your stake as the maximum win possible, so just from the summarised version, it's easy to see that there's something sprouting worth checking out with Big Bamboo.

Big Bamboo is a five reel slots title with 50 paylines, making for an uncomplicated grid with no special reel mechanics. The game uses a Chinese theme, although not the usual Chinese theme you would find in online slots like Lanterns & Lions: Hold and Win, where it's all the ancient Chinese stereotype. Here, it's more the bamboo forests where pandas and monkeys hide out. The animations aren't quite the rich illustrations you might be expecting, as the studio Push Gaming has decided to make it look a little faded, although there is a hint of anime too. If you like playing titles as mobile slots, then you'll be able to spin the reels on mobile devices using iOS and Android.

Casino games don’t usually feature maximum potential wins as high as 50,000x your stake. This is one of the bigger UK slots payouts that's been made possible for players, although in cash, you'll likely find a cap at how much Big Bamboo will pay. Regardless, the wagers you can place are anything from 0.10 to 100.00, so if you want to go for the big time and manage to hit the maximum win, then it's holiday time for the foreseeable future. We'd recommend coming into Big Bamboo with a safe strategy that you stick to, and the reason for this is that it's a volatile game. Potential wins can come thick and fast, but they can also go on dry spells.

There are loads of different symbols in Big Bamboo, although some of them you will only see as a result of bonus play. These symbols are the Golden Bamboo, Instant Prize, Collector and Multiplier. More symbols that have special abilities but fall in regular play are the Bamboo Mystery, scatter and the wild. The wild acts as every regular icon to award 3, 4 and 5 of a kind wins.

Regular symbols are split into lower and higher paying. The lower paying ones are playing card suits diamonds, spades, hearts and clubs, while the higher paying are a bird, a monkey, a wild boar and a panda. 

The Mystery Bamboo will always reveal a symbol at random, but when it reveals the Golden Bamboo icon, then it triggers the Golden Bamboo feature. This sees any Golden Bamboo icons spin in its current position to display either the Instant Prize, Collector or Multiplier symbols. Instant prizes are multipliers as high as 5,000x, while the multiplier is just that, a multiplier. The Collector is an icon that collects Multiplier and Instant Cash symbols, with the empty spaces providing a prize.

Golden Bamboo symbols can also reveal scatters. Either via the Golden Bamboo feature, or by simply landing two scatters on reels 2 and 4, and then a gamble scatter on reel 4, you can trigger a free spins feature. You'll see that you'll have the chance to gamble for more free spins. However, there is the danger that this gamble returns the outcome of losing all free spins.

There is quite a bit more detail in Big Bamboo, especially around the free spins and how you can add more of them. Needless to say, there is a myriad of opportunities for players. So why not give it a try now!
