Bob's Coffee Shop Demo Slot - Review for Canadians, Demo Play & Payout Info

Introduction

Bob’s Coffee Shop is an interesting take on a café-themed slot. BGaming takes us to the streets of Amsterdam to one of its famous coffee shops, owned by the laid-back Bob.

The game is played on a simple 5x3 reel set that generates a maximum of 10 betways paying from left to right. The number of active lines can be adjusted at any point in the game down to a minimum of one.

This slot does not feature a designated wild; however, there is a scatter symbol in the shape of the signboard that replaces any symbol on a payline. It also triggers 10 free spins when three appear anywhere on the reels; even better, this mode can be re-triggered. The scatter is also a paying symbol. 

In addition to the signboard, there are nine other paying symbols. The high-value ones, in order of value, are Bob, a lion, a bong and some lips. These are supplemented by the usual playing card symbols.

Fans of this designer’s work can find other BGaming demo slots to play for free here at Slots Temple. Alternatively, if you are looking for another slot based in a café with a similar RTP, why not try the Le Kaffee Bar slot?

Theme, graphics & soundtrack 

Although the title suggests a food-themed slot, BGaming takes us in another direction in this game. Based in an Amsterdam coffee house, it offers lots of highs! With images of lions with their manes in dreadlocks, bongs with marijuana leaves inside and lips holding a rolled-up cigarette, we are left on no doubt as to the subject matter. Even the spin button is showing us a hand making a peace sign.
The reels float on a cloud of smoke, filling the street outside Bob’s establishment. Most of this is produced by the eponymous owner as he leans against the wall opposite the café.

What we can see of the street in the background is a colourful depiction of the tall merchants’ houses common in Amsterdam. During the free spins, we also get a glimpse inside Bob’s café and of the clientele.

The soundtrack is a reggae tune that fits perfectly with the slot’s design.

If you like the idea of a café-based slot but this one is not your cup of tea, you can find food themed slots (https://www.slotstemple.com/slots-by-theme/food/) here at Slots Temple.

Bob's Coffee Shop RTP and variance 

Bob’s Coffee Shop has a slightly above-averageRTP of 96.50 per cent and medium to high variance. The mathematical model means that small wins come along more frequently than the variance might suggest, so this game should appeal to most players.

How to play Bob’s Coffee Shop

1. When the game opens, go to the top right-hand corner of the screen and click the menu button.

Bob’s Coffee Shop bonus features & free spins 

Scatter

The main feature of Bob’s Coffee Shop is the scatter symbol, which triggers the free spins and acts as a wild. 

Free spins

Three or more scatters across the reels produce 10 free games with the potential for more free spins to be re-triggered. Before the free games begin, a special symbol is randomly chosen as they appear in a bong. Once a winning line appears, this win is calculated and any symbols on the same reels as the special symbol are converted to the latter. This will only happen when additional wins are available, with expanded symbols not needing to appear next to each other to form a winning line.
