Big Panda Slot Review

There are so many online casino games revolving around panda bears that I've become somewhat of an expert over the years. Because I'm lazy and nobody really notices, I get to recycle arbitrary trivia about these fantastic creatures each time:

• 99% of an adult Pandas diet consists of bamboo. (Then why are they so chubby you ask? Good friggin question – that's a lot of roughage!)

• Only about 2000 Pandas exist in the wild.

• Young Pandas eat their mother's feces. (If you have to toss that chocolate mousse you were just dipping into on your lunch break – apologies). But while I'm on a roll – Pandas can poop up to 40 times a day! (The power of fibre!)

• In captivity Male pandas sex drives generally go bye-bye. So breeding has become tough.(It doesn't help that female pandas are only fertile 3 days a year!)

Big Panda is an Amatic video slot designed to bring these lovable monochrome beasts to your P.C, mobile device or tablet. Pandas are synonymous with the east, so naturally, there is a strong theme of Chinese culture running through this game. I felt like I was in a tranquil garden with these majestic animals. And, as we share the same physique, it was like I was one of them.

Gameplay

Big Panda is a medium volatility 5 reel and 50 payline slot. The standard symbols are a Panda, gold coin, lotus flower, face card letters, a Chinese lantern and fan. There's also a bonus sign which I'll chat about a bit later.
Controls are efficient, but not that pleasing to the eye. Up top is Info (including Paytable), while down below is the rest of what's needed: Balance, Autostart, Gamble, Lines, Bet and Start.
Pandas like to take it slow and easy – as a result; you won't find a Turbospin.

Features

• After each winning spin in regular play, you get the chance to gamble either half or your entire profits on a card color choice (2X bet) or a card suit choice (4X bet).

• Free Spins are won when you land 5 or more bonus signs on screen. The number of Free Spins corresponds exactly to the number of bonus signs. Before every spin, a super symbol is randomly chosen which can fill the entire screen!

Performance

Nothing about the graphics will stand out as excellent, but all are nicely rendered and fit the theme well. Music and sound effects however seem to have been recycled from other Amatic offerings, which is a bit disappointing.
I had zero problems with Big Panda on any devices tested.

Conclusion

Big Panda is a nice way to spend an hour or so but does little to distinguish itself from the many other video slots on offer. The super symbol in Free Spins is clearly the highlight – together with the Panda of course! Hopefully, you get those images of feces eating baby pandas out of your mind long enough to give this one a try.
