Cuckoo Slot Review

Cuckoo clocks have been adorning brightly coloured walls since the middle of the 18th century, whilst they come in many different shapes, sizes and colours – there is one thing that they all have in common – a chime that is triggered on the hour, every hour. Endorphina are a creative team of slots enthusiasts and they have now turned their hands to a new theme – time. Cuckoo is a slot game featuring 5 reels and 10 paylines and with bets starting at just 0.10, it will suit every type of budget.

Packed into the reels of the Cuckoo slot machine are various symbols and winning possibilities, but in terms of bonus features – there are scatters, a g amble bonus and a rewarding bonus game where you can win up to 2,400x your stake. High rollers opting to stake 100.00 a spin can see their stake multiply into eye-watering amounts of cash. Will you be able to trigger a fortune whilst playing? Only time will tell.

Beautiful and Bold Design

The Cuckoo slot machine is a beautiful creation – one that almost resembles the blue and white design you would find on expensive pottery from auction rooms, anyway, the reels of the game are royal blue in colour and there are 3 symbols on each, these include; 3 cuckoo eggs with flowers on – gold, black and blue plus a clock and card values of J, Q, K and A. Endorphina create all of their slot machines to allow players to focus on the game and not the control panel, so you will find this much smaller than the reels to the lower of the screen. Choosing your bet is simple, use the coin denomination to the top left from 0.01 to 1.00 and then the bet on the control panel from 1 to 10 – this controls the cash you use to spin the reels with.

Laying a Fortune

Base game wins can return a generous 5,000x your stake, but you will only get this when 5 of a kind of the golden eggs lay on a full active payline. The black egg is the second highest paying with a 2,500x multiplier whilst the blue egg offers less than half of that with 1,000x your stake. Any combination of eggs will offer up to 50x your stake and the card values will reward you with between 100x and 150x your stake when you can land a 5 of a kind combination.

Alarming Bonus Features

Big wins can be generated from the clock symbol on the reels – this is your scatter symbol and when three fall anywhere in view, you will enter into the bonus game. A new screen will spear and the clock will have a randomly set alarm time programmed into it and you have to guess it. Move the golden hand forward and place it where you think it should be to receive a multiplier value – the further you go, the increased chance you have of setting that alarm off and that results in game over. The maximum multiplier on offer is 2,400x your stake. Base game wins, no matter how big or small can be gambled. Beat the dealer in the 50/50 game of chance to try and double your cash.

Calling Birds in Action

If you are a fan of birds, you will love the following slot game from Microgaming. Eagle’s Wings is a 5-reel, 25-payline creation that offers up to 1,000x your stake. You could be flying high when spinning the reels from as little as 0.25 a spin, because there are multipliers, wilds, scatters and up to 60 free spins for you to get your hands on. Soar through the sky as the mighty eagle and try to pick up as many wins as you can, high rollers can scoop spectacular prices for their 125.00 bet.

Smashing Good Time

Cuckoo may seem like a basic slot with limited symbols, but this medium variance slot will ensure you are thrilled by regular wins. We love how you can combine the eggs to generate payouts, but even better is the hidden multipliers within the bonus game. Granted, you won’t find the best selection of bonus features on offer, but when we played, we were lucky to win 1,000x our stake whilst playing the bonus game. There may be big cash up for grabs on the bonus game, but you will find that it doesn’t offer itself up too lightly.
