Donuts (Big Time Gaming) Slot Demo & Review

You might have experienced playing several candy themed slot games over the years, but you’re in for one of the sweetest treats of all in Big Time Gaming’s outstanding Donuts slot. This unique game has just 4-reels with an initial 256 paylines, which can increase up to 2,401, an impressive RTP of 96.54x, and wins that can reach a maximum of 20,000x the bet.

With such a small playfield, you might be wondering how this online slot will grab your attention, but there are a couple of exciting in-game features to tell you about. First of all, there are Donut Boxes, which can appear on any of the game’s four reels. When their lids flip open, they can reveal up to four of the premium paying donut symbols, which, in turn, also increases the number of ways to win. We have multiplying wilds, too. These can land normally and appear in the Donut Boxes but are only present on reels 2, 3, and 4. The highlight of the slot game is the free spins, triggered when at least three scatters land in view. Before this bonus begins, a special set of reels come into play, where you’ll be awarded your win multiplier that will remain active for the duration of the feature.

Are you more of a jammy donut kind of player, or do you just love all those different flavours and sprinkles that sit on top of your sugary snack? Whichever of the two camps you fall into, be sure to check out our free Donuts slot demo, available to play below.

If you’ve had the pleasure of playing online slots themed around snacks and treats in the past, you’ll know there’s a fantastic selection of games to choose from. Yes, we have today’s review of BTG’s Donuts slot, which is one of the elite games in that category, but we have other standout titles in the niche too, such as Pragmatic Play’s Sugar Rush slot or the excellent Fruity Candy slot from provider PG Soft. Let’s get back to Donuts though, and make our way to the pays section to discover how much you can potentially win.

Unsurprisingly, we have four tasty-looking donuts as the premium symbols in the game. So, starting from the top, we have the Purple Donut worth 15x the bet for a winning combination of four, followed by the Red Donut at 2x. The remaining Blue Donut and Green Donut share equal payouts of 1x bet for a completed line of four. Dropping down to the low pays, we can reveal these are represented by six royal symbols, where the Ace is valued at 0.6x, the King and Queen both award 0.4x, and finally, the Ten and Nine payout 0.2x for a four of a kind win.

One of the reasons we love Big Time Gaming’s Donuts slot so much is because of the bet selection that is on offer for players. The minimum price to play is just €0.05 a spin, whilst the maximum stake reaches up to €10. The fact the minimum bet is low is what we find so impressive about this slot game, as it allows punters with even the smallest of budgets the opportunity to play a highly volatile online slot and have the chance of winning a huge multiple of their stake.


Donuts Slot Base Game & Modifiers

Donuts Base Game

Donuts has one of the smallest playfields around, sporting a reel matrix of just 4×4, which houses 16 symbols and 243 ways to win on each spin. The amount of winning ways can be increased when a Donut Box lands, but more on that shortly. Wins will be awarded when at least three premium symbols land on consecutive reels starting from the leftmost reel first, whilst you’ll need four of the lower paying royals to hit for a payout to be achieved.


Donut Boxes

The special Donut Boxes can land on each of the four reels. When they hit, they can reveal up to 4 coloured donuts, and if these are involved in a winning combo, it will increase the number of winning ways, with the slot able to reach a maximum of 2,401 ways to win. There is also the possibility a Donut Box can reveal a multiplying wild.


Wilds & Multiplying Wilds

There are both Standard Wilds and Multiplying Wilds present in Donuts. These will substitute for all other regular symbols and can only appear on reels 2, 3, and 4.


Donuts Slot Bonus Features

Donuts Free Spins Feature
Donuts free spins feature

If 3 or 4 of the Golden Donut scatter symbols land in view, the main bonus round will be triggered, and 12 or 20 free spins will be awarded respectively. Before the free spins get underway, you first have the opportunity to build a higher multiplier to play them with. You will notice that the positions in which you triggered the feature with the Golden Donuts now have a multiplier value attached to them. From this point, you will be awarded 3 bonus spins to try and land more of the donuts. Each time one or more of these land on the reels, the bonus spins will be reset to 3. The free spins feature will begin once the bonus spins value has reached zero.


Free Spins

Depending on how high you have built your multiplier up, will vary on the level of excitement you face as your free spins begin. What you are ideally hoping to see is the classic Big Time Gaming slow roll come into play. This is where the reels lock on to a particular symbol, and you have the possibility of this symbol matching on all reels multiple ways to give you a big win.

The feature on Donuts can be re-triggered, and for this to happen, you will require 2, 3, or 4 Golden Donuts to land anywhere in view, with these awarding 10, 20, and 30 extra spins, respectively. Not only will you be awarded this additional amount of free spins, but you will also be taken back to the bonus screen. Again, you can increase your multiplier value before being taken back to the free spins feature.


Pros

  • The game is playable for just €0.05 a spin.
  • Huge jackpot of 20,000x bet.
  • Well designed slot that is heaps of fun to play.

Cons

  • It can be frustrating when you need four of the royal symbols to hit a win.
  • Some of the bonus features can result in hoards of dead spins.

Donuts Slot Review Final Thoughts

BTG's Donuts is still a game I like to play regularly. Not just because it's a great slot, but sometimes I feel like having a punt without wanting to deposit loads of cash, and this is a title that allows you to do that whilst still giving you high levels of excitement and a serious amount of fun.If you haven't played this slot game before, I highly recommend playing it, as it's one of the best video slots to be released for a long time.
