Benny the Beer Slot Review

Benny the Beer RTP, Details & Wager Limits

Open the Benny the Beer slot to find a 5 reel by 4 row layout. The slot also offers from 1,024 to 100,000 ways to win. This is thanks to the Stackways mechanism, which we’ll discuss in more detail later in this review. To create a win, simply land 3+ matching symbols on adjacent reels, from left to right, starting at reel 1.

You can play the slot from as little as 10p up to £100 per spin. This wide betting range is quite common in Hacksaw Gaming slots, making it perfect for every type of player. To adjust your stake, just use the arrow buttons to the left of the main spin button. Players outside of the UK will also find an Autoplay button to the right of the spin button, which can be used to spin between 10 and 1,000 times without clicking.

Benny the Bear has a top RTP rate of 96.17%, though 94.17%. 92.28% and 88.26% versions also exist. Always check which version you’re playing, and only play at recommended UK casinos, for the best experience.

The slot has a medium volatility and a high hit frequency rate of 37.79%. This means you’ll land a win every 3rd or 4th spin, on average. Finally, Benny the Beer boasts maximum wins of 10,000 x your stake in both the base game and free spins feature.

Theme – enjoy a lively beer garden in the forest

The very first time you see the Benny the Beer slot, you’ll probably be able to guess it’s a Hacksaw Gaming creation. This cartoon-themed creation has all the hallmarks of the brand. Benny the Beer seems like a distant relative of Canny the Can, who can be found in slots such as Drop ‘Em and Stack ‘Em. He stands to the left of the reels, with his camera-shaped mate to the right. It’s all very jolly. The reels hang against a beautifully illustrated, and familiar, forest scene, as if Benny is on his way to meet Hacksaw’s other characters in the beer garden.

When it comes to the paytable, lower value symbols include Jack, Queen, King and Ace royals. Then, there’s padlock, clock and bomb character symbols too. Benny himself is the highest paying symbol, rewarding you with 4 x the bet for a 5-of-a-kind combination.

Like many ‘Book of…’ slots, Benny the Beer doesn’t offer a wild symbol. Instead, you can benefit from both Stackway and Scatter symbols. Read on to learn how these work.

Benny the Beer Bonus Features

The Benny the Beer slot boasts 3 main bonus features, plus a bonus buy option for players outside of the UK. This includes Hacksaw Gaming’s Stackways mechanism, and two different ‘Book of…’ free spins features.

Stackways Feature

The game boasts two Stackways symbols; Normal Stackways symbols and Revealing Stackways symbols. Both types of symbols transform to reveal a stack of other symbols.

Normal Stackways symbols carry values of 2, 3 or 4, whilst Revealing Stackways symbols (illustrated by a question mark) can have values of 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 or 10. The number they display simply refers to the number of stacked symbols you receive.

The symbol that the Stackways symbols transform into is the symbol which would create the longest winning combination. If there is more than one option, the symbol is chosen at random.

Book of Stackways Free Spins Feature

If you land 3 Free Spins scatter symbols in the base game, you trigger the Book of Stackways free spins feature. You receive 10 free spins to begin with.

Before the round begins, 2 regular symbols are randomly chosen to be Special symbols. When one of the Special symbols lands on at least 3 reels at the same time, indicators below the corresponding reels will light up to reveal a number from 2 – 10. Those reels will then be stacked with the shown amount of the Special symbol.

If you land 2 additional scatters during the feature, you receive an extra 2 free spins. 3 additional scatters gives you an extra 3 free spins, whilst 4 additional scatters triggers the Super Book of Stackways feature.

Super Book of Stackways Feature

You can trigger this feature by landing 4 scatter symbols in the base game or during the regular free spins feature. Much the same as the regular free spins round, you receive 10 free spins to start.

The only difference is that 4 regular symbols are converted into Special symbols. This gives you extra chances to produce stacked reels and win big.

Buy Bonus Feature

Outside of the UK, the Benny the Beer slot comes with a Bonus Buy feature. You can purchase 5 different perks, at the following prices:

Benny the Beer Slot Review Summary – upbeat and enjoyable

If you’re in need of a cheering up, Benny the Beer is the perfect slot for you. The retro-looking cartoon graphics are great, and we’d argue that Benny (with his moustache and beer belly) could put a smile on anyone’s face.

The gameplay is equally lighthearted but entertaining. Hacksaw Gaming have created a solid mash-up slot, combining their Stackways mechanism with ‘Book of…’ features. The two work well together and the free spins round is the key to big wins. Of course, as the name suggests, the Super Book of Stackways feature is the best, but the base game and regular free spins features are perfectly enjoyable too.

With 10,000 x bet max wins, the Benny the Beer slot offers something for everyone. A decent math model, old and new bonus features, and a great design. What’s not to love?
