Free Spins

Three to five scatter symbols trigger a free spins round. The first thing that happens after you hit the scatters is you are given a choice of coaster, which randomly selects different options.

Three scatters will give you either:

  • Eight free spins with sticky wilds
  • Ten free spins with dropping wilds
  • Or twelve free spins with expanding wilds

Zicke Zacke free spins

Four scatters will give you an additional four more spins, and five scatters will give you an additional ten free spins.

Sticky spins stay where they land throughout the duration of your free spins, making it progressively easier to hit winning combinations.

Dropping wilds fall down one position on the game board until they are no longer on the board.

Expanding wilds fill up the entire reel that they land on.

Another feature of the free spins bonus round is the collection bar. Each collection symbol fills up the collection bar one place. For every four collection symbols you acquire, a free spins retrigger occurs, with additional free spins and a win multiplier.

Super Stake

You also have the option of turning on ‘Super Stake’, which doubles the size of your bet but also increases your chances of hitting free spins.

Beer Tower Feature

Beer Tower Feature Zicke Zacke

During the base game, there is the chance to hit multiple wilds in a stack on reels 2, 3, and 4 which turn into the beer tower. This gives you three respins, and with each respin the top wild symbol disappears. Once all the wild symbols are gone, the beer tower feature ends. It is also possible to refill the beer tower which gives you an additional four respins.

Oktoberfest Theme

The theme for this slot seems to be drinking beer and having fun and there is nothing wrong with that. Who doesn’t enjoy kicking back with some friends, pouring down a couple of cold ones, and eating some Bratwurst while you’re at it.

Oktoberfest is a massive festival in Germany during the fall, where they get together and drink lots of beer. It is such a popular event that many countries have copied it and have their own versions.

Conclusion

Zicke Zacke Logo

We absolutely loved Zicke and Zacke. This is an incredible slot. First of all, choosing a slot themed around a festival of beer drinking is just a brilliant decision. This is a great theme, especially for a video slot, and it works so well. As for the game itself, the graphical work is excellent, the music is incredibly appropriate, and the game play is really taken to the next level with the different types of free spins and the beer tower feature.

If there was one word to sum this slot up, it would “wow”. With Zicke and Zacke, Stakelogic has really set the bar high.
