Bar Bar Black Sheep Slot Review

If you have some good luck playing this game, it won’t be a case of ‘have you any wool?’ but more like ‘have you really got that much in your bank? Hopefully playing ‘Bar Bar Black Sheep’ will bring you lots of luck.

This is the original version of the slot from Microgaming. It’s got three reels and such was its success that years later they released a five-reel version of the game. That’s a bit more complicated than this one but that’s not to say at all that you won’t enjoy playing this three-reel game.

Microgaming certainly enjoy taking nursery rhymes and turning them into successful slot games. ‘Jack and Jill’ and ‘Old King Cole’ have been big hits for them and this is another that has proved to be extremely popular.

With it being a three-reel game it means there’s no need for a second screen to give you all the details about the winning combinations available and special features that the game has. Instead the whole of the right-hand side of the screen gives you all the information you need about how much each winning combination will send into your waiting account balance.

Bar Bar Bonanza

Just how much you win depends on the stake you choose and how many coins you want to play on each spin of the reels. The coin range goes from €0.60 and you can play either one, two or three coins each time so the maximum stake is €75.

There are some good wins to be had in this game if you’re having a lucky day. If you get a white sheep on a pay-line that pays you either 2x, 4x or 6x your coin level. This rises substantially with three triple-bars paying 30x, 60x or 90x your coin stake, three white sheep pay 60x, 120x or 180x but it’s two single bars and a black sheep that you really want to see. That’s the top prize in this game and pays either 500x, 1000x or 1600x the coin stake.

Don’t Be Sheepish

The symbols in this game are pretty basic but enjoyable enough to look at. There’s the single, double and triple bars, a white sheep and a black sheep. There is a wild symbol here and it’s the black sheep. Now the black sheep is usually the one that you don’t really like talking about for some unsavoury reason. Here though it’s one that you’ll love talking about. It has the ability to substitute for other symbols in the game to get you some good winning combinations.

This is an easy game to operate so no problems at all when it comes to setting the stake for each spin of the reels.

No Bar Bar Bonus

There’s no bonus game here, not even a random one. That might put a few players off but if you hit the jackpot or one of the other tempting prizes in this game you probably won’t be moaning that much, will you?  It is a game that’s ideal for those of you who aren’t that experienced at playing slot games. Try this kind of simple game out before trying your luck on those with all the bonus games. You’ll also find ‘Bar Bar Black Sheep’ to be a low volatility game, that means you’ll be getting a fair few small wins but have to wait a while for a big one to come along.

Final Words

A rather straightforward slot from Microgaming but one that is still rather entertaining to play. No bonus game but that’s to be expected in this type of slot. There are still some good wins to be had and this is a good introduction for new players.
