Bar Bar Black Sheep
As online slot games become more popular and a greater number of game designers enter the fray it is only ever good news for the players as this competition drives innovation in themes, gameplay and features.
Microgaming are already well known for Nursery Rhyme video slots with titles such as Georgie Porgie and Jack and Jill already both solid games in their catalogue. They are also notorious for being creative in adjusting these game themes for maximum entertainment and a little shock value, Bar Bar Black Sheep is no exception to this rule.
Bar Bar Black Sheep have you any wool? Yes sir, yes sir, 5 reels full! Very clever Microgaming – hats off to the creative team for that little entry piece when you load the game, complete with a cheeky winking black sheep! A little eyebrow raised cynicism aside this 5×3 slot with 15 fixed pay-lines has much more to offer than its theme with simple but rewarding gameplay and a max possible win of x999 your line bet with a special multiplier bonus being my highlights.
Theme
Some game designers use a theme purely as a backdrop, what Microgaming have done here is very cleverly integrated the theme into the gameplay and features too, the attention to detail and little touches show some real thought went into the game. This starts with the music which is of course based on the original nursery rhyme but a little more upbeat with a jingle about it which is fun rather than annoying. The reels themselves are set against a sunny cartoon like farmyard backdrop which is as with most Microgaming titles well designed, colourful and fun.
The symbols are nice and varied for such a simply constructed reel layout with animated black sheep, white sheep, 3 types of bars, a barn and as you might predict – bags of wool. What is nice that instead of simply filling the reels with fruits as low pay symbols there is a few random alternatives from the farmyard thrown in such as ears of corn and the like. It goes without saying that as this was aimed at the mobile slot player all the icons are very well rendered and display perfectly on all mobile devices we tried them on, fully compatible with Android phones, iPhones and iPad tablets.
Features
This is a great game for low limit players, with coin values from 0.20 – 5.00 credits and a max of 3 coins available, your max bet is just 15.00 credits. With a 95,000 credit jackpot on the line expect a decent amount of variance here, you will be relying on the games entertainment value in the dry spells between wins.
The stock controls you expect to be here are clear and easy to find, spin, pay-table, auto play and your simple current balance screen all sit sensibly around the reels. It’s nice to note that the reel surrounds have been kept as small as possible so that the game reels and symbols display well on a smaller screen, no squinting required!
The games big feature draws are its two bonus options, the first of which is a standard free spins round. Spin in 3 of the bags of wool scatter symbols to gain free spins. You will be hoping to see the Bar Bar Black Sheep Wild symbol as much as often in the spins round to maximise your win potential as he is also a 3x multiplier of any line win.
The Black Sheep Wild only ever appears on the 3rd game reel so is not likely to help you as much during single spins, unless he has two single bars before him. This is where the game wins go mad, form the combination ‘Single Bar’ ‘Single Bar’ ‘Blacksheep Wild’ from left to right and a random multiplier kicks in to give you up to 999x your line bet as a win!
Summary
Bar Bar Blacksheep is fun, frivolous and great to look at. It may not have a gamble feature, re-spin reels option or even a traditionally functioning wild but we just don’t care! It’s a perfect mobile compatible slot, easy to play with, simple to understand and offering high potential rewards to real money slot players. Have you any cash? ‘Yes Sir Yes Sir three bags full’ will be the refrain of players lucky enough to make the big win symbol combinations.
