Bells (Hoelle) Demo Slot - Review for Canadians, Demo Play & Payout Info

Introduction 

There are retro slots and just old fashioned games. Bells, from Berlin-based game maker Hoelle, is definitely the latter. 

The game is part of their Classic Series and is played on a 5x3 reels set with just five fixed pay lines which pay left to right.

The main feature is a gamble option where player can choose between two games. The card game has two mini games, and there is also a ladder option.

The game has no wild symbol nor any scatter, and players will need to appreciate the joy of playing an online slot which is reminiscent of land based cabinets from the 20th century. This may be new to you, but why not soak up the atmosphere.

As one would expect, the game symbols are five fruits and the classic top paying eponymous Bell. In order of value the other high rewarding symbols are Watermelon, Grapes and Plums. These are followed by the Orange and Lemon, and finally Cherries.

Players who follow this designer’s games will find many more Hölle Games slots which are available to play in demo mode here at Slots Temple.

Theme, Graphics and Soundtrack 

As suggested above, the theme of the game is the classic fruit machine, but if you are concerned about the visuals, there is no need to worry.

The game is presented as if you are sitting in front of a cabinet slot with a lush velvet background. The brightly coloured symbols stand out against the black reels, and have that retro feel that many players will be looking for.

An electronic theme tune gets you into the mood for the game and times with the fall of the reels. Often this kind of slot can have an intrusive soundtrack, but this one fits perfectly with the game, and we defy you to mute it.

If you are looking for a classic game with a twist, why not take a look at Blazing Bells slot. This slot has the bell symbol and fruits but also card symbols to create wins. The RTP is 96.37% and the game is high variance, with a staggering 46,656 pay lines generated from a 6x6 reel set.

Bells (Hoelle) Gamble Feature

There are two gamble options in this slot once a winning line lands.

The first option is the card game, clearly indicated to the left of the spin button. Here you can choose from two games, either the card colour, or card suit. Choose the former and you can gamble either half or all your winnings. The colour option doubles your gamble wager, and the suit quadruples it.

Choose the ladder and you are playing with all your winnings, but here you can win up to 20x your initial win. If your luck is not in, however, you could lose the lot.

Bells (Hoelle) Review 

There is no doubt that this slot will appeal to anyone who longs for a classic slot, and the designer is to be congratulated on producing a game which evokes the retro era.

This is a game stripped back, so there are no wilds or scatters to trigger free spins, but once you appreciate the set-up the game should appeal to all given its wide bet spread.

The gamble options are the main feature, and players can experiment with both, with the option in the card game to only risk half their win. The x20 multiplier in the ladder will also appeal.
