Fun Farm - Review, Demo Play, Payout, Free Spins & Bonuses

Introduction

Fun Farm is a lively example of how simplicity can still be exciting. The format may seem pretty basic, with five reels and 25 paylines, and the farmyard graphics aren’t exactly detailed, but like the Fat Rabbit slot, it’s bold and energetic, full of its own distinct charm and with two bonus rounds, including free spins, that offer lots of extra thrills.

Theme, Graphics & Soundtrack

You’ll be glad to hear that this slot does what it says on the tin. It’s fun, and it’s set on a farm. The card symbols are made of wood, there are aubergines (eggplants to the Americans), pumpkins and corn to be grown and there’s a friendly cow who looks like she’d make a good character in a children’s cartoon. The farmer’s there as well, complete with his big hat and his pipe, almost a cowboy in appearance.

This slot uses bold, simple graphics for a bright and welcoming feel. There’s a blue sky with fluffy white clouds, there are reels like the slats in a fence where those colourful symbols sit, and there’s a lively farmyard tune that will have you dancing and running about. Take joy in life’s simple pleasures with Fun Farm. 

Fun Farm RTP and Variance

We’ve noticed that no matter how good the gameplay and features of Platipus slots might be, they sometimes lean towards lower RTPs. The 90.09% of Fun Farm is a case in point. That is a long way below average for a modern slot, and even if you know that a game can score much higher than its RTP on a spin-to-spin basis, it does overshadow things a bit. When it comes to setting realistic expectations, it’s also a little irritating that there doesn’t appear to be any official variance information about size and frequency of wins.

How to Play Fun Farm

Get your wellies on and let’s go:

1. If you’ve played Platipus slots before, the layout may seem a little familiar. There are four buttons in the bottom left corner of the screen: mute, full screen, help and settings.
2. Mute and full screen are as simple as on and off, but help and settings both open very informative windows. Help will take you to the paytable, where you’ll find every symbol value and feature.
3. Settings, on the other hand, will take you to a more comprehensive range of controls for sound. For one thing, music and sound effects can be separated into different tracks, plus you can adjust the volume by sliding the meter along, rather than just having it on or off.
4. From here you can also go to the game rules page, which has even more detail than the paytable. This includes a paytable based on the general bet multiplier, rather than direct values based on your current wager.
5. Speaking of bet, you can adjust it using the plus and minus symbols under the reels. Between them you’ll see your bet per line, with the total bet next to them. Where you choose to wager will probably be inspired by your current balance, also on display down here.
6. Budgeting is an important part of responsible gaming, making sure the slot stays fun. Don’t bet what you can’t afford, don’t chase losses and have some hard loss and single win limits where you’ll be happy to walk away.
7. It’s harder to include loss and single win limits if you press the autoplay button, as this only offers you a number of spins to turn automatically (up to 100), though it is convenient if you don’t want to have to keep pressing the big Spin button right next to it (we do suggest you take breaks every so often to stop the session getting away from you).
8. We always recommend trying free slot demos to familiarise yourself with a game before risking real cash. You can still include win and loss limits for authenticity. 

Bet & Win Sizes

You can adjust your bet per line from one to 100, which means a pretty decent total bet range of between 25 and 2500.

The in-game paytable will show symbol values based on your current bet, but if you want to calculate what it will be for any wager, you can use the paytable on the game rules page. Just times your bet per line by the multiplier:

9 - x10, x20, x40

10 - x15, x30, x50

J - x20, x40, x60

Q - x25, x50, x75

K - x30, x60, x90

A - x40, x75, x100

Corn - x50, x90, x150

Aubergine - x60, x100, x200

Cow - x75, x150, x250

Farmer - x100, x200, x300

Fun Farm Bonus Features

Free Spins

All you need to do to trigger the free spins round is find three or more Free Spins symbols, handily labelled and represented by the windmill.

Three symbols - ten free spins.
Four symbols - 20 free spins.
Five symbols - 30 free spins.

Bonus Game

An important part of the farm’s daily chores is collecting the eggs, and if you find three or more nests, you’ll trigger a Pick Me bonus game. As you choose your items, different values will be revealed. Once you have three matching values, that’s the credit amount that you’ll be awarded.

Fun Farm Review

No, it’s not the most complicated slot in the world. The RTP is very low, the graphics are loud and cartoony, the two bonus rounds are exciting, but nothing we haven’t seen before. That doesn’t mean Fun Farm can’t put a smile on your face, both because of its distinct charm and because its features do still offer lots of chances to win.
