Theme and graphics
While the basic game play in Ned and His Friends is of course great, you’ll be really impressed with the bonus features. Free spins and two bonus rounds await you. Catching at least 3 icons with two rats will trigger the free spins feature. These symbols can drop anywhere on the playing field to activate the spins. In addition, you may get additional spins if you manage to catch 3 of these icons again. If 3 or more of these mouse mink symbols land on the reels, you’ll get a bonus where you have to pick one of the rat tails to win an instant cash prize. Finally, Ned and His Friends has a separate bonus round where you have to catch 3 icons depicting Ned’s girlfriend to trigger it. You’ll have to sing a song with Ned and his rats to wake up the girl, who’s passed out after seeing the guy’s house.
Gameplay
Once Upon a Time is a great slot from Betsoft with exciting gameplay. There are plenty of exciting symbols waiting for you on the reels. These include a beautiful princess, a bag of gold, a man with a mountain, a turkey plate, a sword in stone, a catapult, an axe and a coat of arms. There are no classic cheap “card” symbols here. Payouts range from 80 for 2500 credits. Before you start the game, you have to place your bet. Using the three buttons at the bottom of the screen, you can change the number of active lines, the coin value and the number of coins per line. The first can range from 1 to 30, the second from 0.02 to 0.50 and the third from 1 to 5.
Paylines
In Once Upon a Time there are 30 winning lines, giving you plenty of chances to make winning combinations on each spin. To get your payout you need to catch at least 2 expensive or 3 cheap symbols on one of the lines.
Pay attention to the princess – she is the best symbol in this game. A line of 5 of these can bring you 2500 coins.
Bonus
While you’re sure to enjoy the basic game play in Once Upon a Time, you’ll be really surprised by the variety of bonus features. Instant cash payouts, free spins and bonus rounds await you. All of these will bring you a lot of fun and enjoyment. To activate the free spins, you need to catch 3 tree houses on an active line. You will receive a cash payout and free spins. Also, during this feature, symbols with houses on trees will bring you extra spins. 3 bags of gold anywhere on the playing field triggers a bonus where you have to pick bags one by one – until you see the ‘Collect’ sign behind one of them. After each selection, you’ll receive an instant prize. The 3 goblins that fall into one of the combinations on reels 1, 2 and 3 will activate the ‘Goblin Treasures’ bonus round. There is also a bonus game in which you have to rescue the princess. It is triggered on a roll of 3 knights on any of the winning lines. Finally, you can also get instant payouts if the princess and knight icons fall next to each other.
