Picnic Panic Review

Would you go into a panic if a ton of ants invaded your picnic? This is the very premise of Picnic Panic the online slot by Amaya Gaming. This video slot has a maximum jackpot worth 150,000 credits, as well as a scatter, wild, click and pick, and a free spins round.

This game is based on the board game called Picnic Panic, which also features ants that steal food from a picnic. The game is set in a perfect scene for a picnic, but there’s one problem—ants—and they have no shame, waving at players from behind the reels. The symbols in this 5-reel, 25-payline slot include Fruit, the Picnic Basket, a Drink, a Sandwich, Cake, Chips, a Man (running off the picnic blanket), and various ant culprits, one with sunglasses, two ants standing together, an ant with chocolate cake, and two other single ant caricatures.

The wild feature, or substitute, is the ant with sunglasses. The substitute wild symbol is capable of taking the place of any symbol besides the Scattered Sneaky Ant. The substitute wild symbol also triggers the free games feature when it appears on reels 1 and 5. The Scattered Sneaky Ant is running off with the chocolate cake, and for every scatter win, the total bet is multiplied and added to the payline winnings. The scatter symbol also triggers the Picnic Feature when 3 or more Sneaky Ant symbols appear on the reels. During the Picnic Feature you can choose 3 out of 5 of the food items to reveal a multiplier to be applied to your original bet. This feature is available in both base play and during the free games bonus round.

Free Games

To trigger the Free Games feature, the Scattered Sneaky Ant must appear on reels 1 and 5. During this round, any Picnic Basket, Fruit, Cake, Chips, Sandwich, or Drink symbols that appear on reels 2, 3, or 4 will count towards the number of free spins that are rewarded. The Free Games feature can be retriggered until the number of games is the same as the original trigger (up to 35 spins at once). All of the prizes in this round are doubled.
