Honey Hive XL Slots

Rival has long been a great source of action-packed slot games. We've checked out another of theirs for this review - Honey Hive XL. We all like to do our bit to protect the bees, so will they have a positive or negative role to play in this game, we wonder?

Can you figure out the game format?

When you load the game, you get a honeycomb design of reels. These offer a 3-4-3 arrangement that makes it tricky to work out how many lines there are to play on. We can reveal there are 36 of those.

Check how much you'd like to wager before you begin

Rival has done a fine job of providing a series of bet amounts that go all the way to $60 per spin. However, you can start from as little as 10 cents on a single spin.

Watch out for the bee!

There should be a bee in this game, right? It behaves as a wild icon and carries a label with it too. You'll spot a scatter label on another icon, this time shaped as a pot of honey.

Prepare for a chance to find some free spins in Honey Hive XL

Finding just two scatters will reveal the Honeypot Prize Wheel. You can spin it for a chance to get an instant prize before going back to the base game, or a chance of some free spins.

You can also snag some free spins directly from the base game by finding three scatters in a single spin. This will produce 15 free spins that bring an expanding wild bee into play instead of the usual bee.

Has Rival created a captivating game in the Honey Hive XL slot?

The unusual format certainly got our attention. We liked it a lot when we settled in to play it. We've seen the honeycomb format before, but there's no denying it works well with the bee-themed game. Will the bee fly into play to give you some wild prizes? Will you manage to find enough honeypots to reach the prize wheel or the free spin feature?
