Tiger vs Bear Slot Review by Games Global

This ‘Tiger vs Bear’ online video slot from Microgaming pins two of the most ferocious beasts against each other, and can provide you with some fun spins and maybe even some decent wins! Actually, the full name of this slot is ‘Tiger vs Bear Siberian Standoff’, and you’d soon understand why, once you get the chance to play it for yourself. Are you sure that you’re ready to step inside this wintery danger-zone in hopes of some nice payouts?

Theme and Symbols

It’s adequately set on none other than a backdrop of silver birch trees and snow, which makes the player feel like they have traveled deep within this Siberian wilderness. So be extra careful, you are far from alone since this 5-reel slot is filled with some lethal beasts, as well as some winter-themed symbols.

Obviously, the two main symbols here are the main characters, the cross-armed Bear, and the cross-armed Tiger, both of which can pay the same and aid you in entering this slot’s bonus games. But more on that later on.

As for the other symbols, you get the ‘Tiger vs Bear’ Logo, which represents the Scatter and can pay up to 50x that of your total bet, assuming you land 5 of its kind, anywhere on your reels. Then you’ve got the Snowflake, snowy leaf, and even the snow-covered Playing Card Symbols, going from 9 to Ace, fitting perfectly with this overall theme.

Bonus Games, Anyone?

There are not one, but 2 bonus games in this online video slot from Microgaming and both of them are triggered in the same manner. Once the player triggers them they’ll have to choose either free spins or a simple ‘pick me’ bonus. Hold your horses, as this isn’t the exciting part.

By landing a Tiger Symbol on reel 1, and a Bear Symbol on reel 5, - or, vice-versa -the Bear lands on reel 1 while the Tiger lands on reel 5, the bonus games are triggered! During this, you have to choose who of these two will win the battle.

Choosing the Tiger, and assuming he wins, you end up with 8 Free Spins, if, on the other hand, the tiger losses, you’ll end up with only 4. As for the Bear winning, you’ll get a 2x Multiplier for the Bear Claw ‘pick me’ bonus, and if he losses, you get just 1x.

Speaking of Which…

In the Bear Claw bonus which we already mentioned, the player gets a whole screen filled with Blue Bear Paw Prints, which you will keep on selecting, and thus, revealing the prizes which hide under them. Finding the special ‘Collect’ token means this game will come to an end, leaving you with what you have won so far. The most we’ve personally managed to gain is a decent 90x that of our bet in this video slot.

There are also these Tiger Free Spins, with, would you believe it, Wild reels! This gives the player the fantastic opportunity of getting some neat 3, 4, and 5 of-a-kind wins! Of course, you could just as easily end up with minimum wins, so don’t get your hopes up too high – this is a slot, after all, and they are never possible to predict.

Still, let’s hope that the real winner won’t be the tiger or the bear, but the player, you. The bonus games are also pretty frequent, which is worth noting. The betting options range from a maximum bet of 100 for those high rollers out there to a minimum bet of 0.25 per spin.

Conclusion

Overall this online Microgaming slot can offer you plenty of variety when it comes to gameplay but may leave those who are not careful enough with their budgets out in the cold. You’ll just have to give it a spin yourself on one of our top-rated online casinos and hope for the best!
