Tiger vs Bear

When it comes to online slots, the first thing we usually notice is the theme. Not many people would find Siberia to be a common setting for a video slot, yet such titles seem to appear continuously, with more and more people becoming interested in them. With this growing trend in mind, Microgaming has released a new Siberian animals-themed title that features a big standoff – that between a bear and a tiger.

“Tiger vs. Bear” Characteristics

In its new 5-reel, 25-payline slot, Microgaming made an attempt at presenting Siberia through its most famous animals – tiger and bear, and their fight for survival and supremacy in their habitat full of hardships. But what makes this slot stand out from the crowd of similar animal slots is a comical detail that the two animals settle things between tem in a very interesting way – by arm wrestling.

Another trait that will make all feature-hungry slots fans happy is the fact that “Tiger vs. Bear” involves a host of truly genuine and rewarding features, such as wilds, scatters, a bonus round, free spins, and multipliers. But these won’t be at your disposal until you decide which bet amount will suit your playing habits. First you should pay attention to the number of active paylines – it’s best to set them to the maximum 25 in order to maximize your winning odds. Then you should go for the coins section, which hides sums that start at 1 cent and reach the maximum 20 cents; finally, if to this you add the possibility to place up to 20 coins per payline, you’ll get a massive range that will surely fit all players’ financial capabilities.

Special Features:

One of the characteristics that will make “Tiger vs. Bear” a favorite of many an online gambler are its special features, which are not only rewarding but interesting and interactive, as well.

Namely, the standard ones appear quite often and make the base game play more interesting and lucrative, especially the wild symbol which comes quite often and doubles the prize whenever it participates in a winner. However, scattered game logos are deprived of any role other than that of paying any and multiplying the total bet.

Given the fact that these two special symbols can be received quite often, reaching the bonus round is a bit more challenging, as it requires the tiger icon to appear on the first and bear on the fifth reel, or the other way round. Once this happens, you’ll be introduced to the two main character’s confrontation. What you need to do is pick your favorite which will fight to bring you a special prize – the tiger will give you 4 free spins with randomly awarded wild reels (up to three of them on reels 2, 3, and 4), plus another 4 if it wins in the battle; whereas the bear will bring you a chance to pick among bear claws to reveal prizes until you reveal the Stopper symbol, and as a bonus, if the bear wins, you will get a 2x multiplier for all of the prizes you reveal underneath the claws.

Conclusion:

Having in mind how positive an outcome of this game can be if you’re lucky enough to trigger the bonus round, this game definitely deserves a warm recommendation. As a bonus, you’ll be able to enjoy superb quality graphics, regal sound effects that fully complement these two glorious animals and a theme that will bring a breath of fresh air in those hot summer days.
