Duolitos Garden: Slot Review and Free Play Demo

Duolitos Garden Review

Studio Swintt expands its collection of Premium games with the Duolitos Garden slot, which may seem cute and lighthearted at first sight, but is packed with numerous powerful features, including expanding symbols, streak-style respins, and several jackpots.

On the surface, Duolitos Garden is super lovely, featuring bright cartoonish graphics and an adorable farm theme. True to the name, the game plays out somewhere in the serene garden, with the backdrop showcasing beautiful summertime scenery. In the middle of the lawn is sitting a standard 5-reel, 3-row setup, producing 50 ways to play on each spin, where 3+ matching symbols create winning combos starting from the leftmost reel.

There are 9 regular symbols, including a bunch of classic card ranks, which are lows, as well as peas, carrots, seeds, and corn, which are highs. Five-of-a-kind low symbol wins are worth 1x your bet, and the premium symbols pay from 4x to 40x your bet for combinations of five.

Bet levels vary from £0.1 to £100 per spin, which should appeal to many. Highly-volatile, the Duolitos Garden slot has RTP ranges, meaning that the return value can be different between the casinos. The lowest you can get is 85.51%, and the highest is 95.11%, which isn’t also overly impressive, being beneath the average level. However, accessing the features via Bonus Buy increases the payback by over half a percent. The hit rate is quite brutal as well at 14.47%, and the maximum you can win from a signal spin is 3,000x the bet, which is kinda disappointing given the risk involved.

Duolitos Garden Slot Features

In the base game, Wild symbols can boost the winning opportunities significantly. They don’t have their own value as they are available only on the three middle reels, but whenever they land, they expand to cover the reels entirely.

The main attraction in the Duolitos Garden slot is the Free Spins feature, or streak-style respins to be precise. Look out for flower symbols that can appear on any of the reels. When 6 instances hit simultaneously, the bonus game is activated, giving players 3 respins to start with.

Players proceed to special expanded 5x6 reels, though, only the 3 bottom rows are active by default. The triggering symbols turn into pearls with random cash values, locking in place for the remainder of the feature. In the bonus, only the following special symbols are available:

• Flower - turn into pearls and reveal random cash values.
• Frog - unlocks an additional row.
• Forester - increases the spin counter by 1 and then turns into a pearl.
• Bee - increases the values of up to 5 random pearls and then turns into a pearl.
• VIP Bee - increases pearl values on each spin.
• Gardener - multiplies all visible pearl values by 2x and then turns into a pearl.
• Farmer - collects all pearl values.
• VIP Farmer - collects pearl values on each spin.
• Chest - opens after 10 spins, revealing one of the jackpot prizes: Minor (20x), Major (50x), Maxi (250x), Mega (500x).

Whenever a new special symbol lands on the reels, it resets the respins tally, and the feature lasts until there are no more respins left. At the end, all visible pearl values and jackpots are summed up and paid to the player.

The Free Spins bonus can be triggered immediately without playing through the base game via the Buy Feature. The cost is fixed at 100x the total stake.

Review Summary

At the end of the day, Duolitos Garden is a fun slot, although it’s not all rosy. The gameplay is loaded with a huge number of extras, providing plenty of entertainment, but the math is pretty awful, which can really spoil the overall impression, especially if you play with one of the lower RTP settings.
