The Flintstones Slot Review

The Flintstones has broken so many boundaries since it became a part of television back in 1960. It was actually the first primetime American animation series to exist. The series was broadcast initially between September 30, 1960 through to April 1, 1966. As anyone who has seen the show will know, it depicts the lives of a working-class Stone Age man and his family and friends. The show was also the most financially successful network animation franchise for three decades. It was only taken over by The Simpsons many, many years later. Of course, you can’t have online slot games without there being one surrounding The Flintstones. And thanks to Playtech, there is one! Taking you into the heart of Bedrock, you’ll find all your favourite characters on the reels!

The Flintstones or the Rubbles?

The game’s overall design is available to you on a five reel and four row layout. Therefore, it’s a slightly bigger interface than the standard online slot games provide. It’s also upon these reels that you will find the selection of different symbols as well. The first of these are the regularly seen A, J, K and Q additions. Joining them, you’ll see the two items from the family household, including the telephone made out of stone. Wilma and Betty are also in the game as character icons, as are both Barney and Fred. Three more icons are also able to be seen, but these provide it with its special features.

Alongside this intriguing design, Playtech have also made sure to add a total of 1,024 ways to win into the game as well. This is not a feature that you can change in any way. However, you do have the chance to alter the amount of the wager that you play per spin. This is done solely by altering the coin value with the plus and minus buttons in the bottom left corner. The amount starts from its minimum of £0.01 and can increase up to £1. This allow you the possibility of placing a maximum overall wager of £40 per spin. There’s also a ‘Turbo Mode‘ button, which speeds up the spinning of the reels. Additionally, an ‘Auto Play’ option can be put to use as well.

There were a lot of crazy going-ons in the television series of The Flintstones, and this game tries to capture some of them. It does this by its inclusion of various different specialities, starting with the wild icon. This exists in the form of the family pet, Dino. As a wild, he stands in for any other icon on the reels in order to form a winning combination. The only exceptions to this rule are the bonus and free games symbols. Should five Dino icons come into view at any time on a winning pay line, you can receive a maximum pay out of £1,000!

As we said, there is a bonus icon on the reels. This is the image of Fred’s bowling ball knocking over some pins. If this shows up in any location on reels one, three and five, it triggers the ‘Bedrock Bowling Bonus‘ round. In this feature you will go bowling with Fred to try and pick up great prizes. Simply pick your style of bowling for a cash reward and score a strike for an extra throw!

There’s a ‘Rocky Ride‘ addition to the game as well. This can occur at random on any main game spin. This sees a wheel at the top of the reels begin to spin and in the process it will reveal a win multiplier. Fred and Barney then throw mystery symbols onto the reels, which turn into the same icon to create wins for you!

The free games icon is that of the Flintstones’ house. If this shows up in any location on reels two, three and four, you get to choose one of three freespins modes. There’s the ‘Wilma Wild Free Games‘ round. This sees Wilma vacuum up any wilds that land on the reels for five freespins. These will then all appear on the reels for the final ultra spin! There’s also the ‘Dino Multiplier Free Games’ option. This gives you 10 freespins and Dino will dig for bones on any of them. Every bone he locates will increase the win multiplier! Finally, there’s ‘The Great Gazoo Free Games‘ round. You’ll receive 12 freespins with this, and Gazoo himself will randomly turn other symbols wild!

The Final Word

There is literally nothing at all wrong with this game. It features high quality graphics, has a great theme throughout, intriguing special extras and an overall perfect set of game play.
