Game Overview
I know what you’re thinking already; surely not another ” book of ” slot. Well, in part, you would be right but fear not slot fans; you won’t be heading to Egypt for yet another pharaoh themed slot within this niche. Instead, Hacksaw Gaming has brought back their 60s style character from their debut slot, Stick’em, to star in Canny the Can and the Book of Time. After a quick look at those all-important stats, the initial findings look good. We’ve got 20 paylines, a standard RTP of 96.13% and wins that can reach a maximum of 10,000x bet.
So what about those features then? I did imply that you would be only half right if you assumed this was just an ordinary book slot. But first, let’s kick off with the base game, which is pretty straightforward. Other than stacked symbols appearing on each reel, there’s not much going on to help you hit anything remotely significant win wise. Things begin to liven up though, for the main bonus rounds, with two on offer. Yes, as we have concluded, there is an expanding symbols feature where up to three symbols can be active. But there’s also the What Time Is It bonus, where clocks appearing above reels 2, 3, and 4 can provide multipliers of up to 12x on special symbols below them. Lastly, five bonus buy options are available for those who can access them.
Okay, we’re ready to put this game through its paces. Join us in our full review or try all of the features for yourself in the free demo slot of Canny the Can and the Book of Time below.
Canny The Can And The Book Of Time Slot Theme, Stakes, Pays & Symbols
I have no idea why, but I instantly got Charlie Chaplin vibes when this game loaded up. If you’ve never seen any of Charlie’s work before, I suggest you check some of it out. You can watch his classic factory scene here if you wish. Yes, he might not be everybody’s cup of tea, but the English comic was an absolute genius when it came to mime, visual and slapstick comedy. Anyway, this first impression made me completely forget that this was, in part, a book slot, so if you’d like a reminder at some point of popular games in that particular genre, then you should try some spins on Book of Dead, or the rather interesting Book of Charms from Realistic Games, that also features two bonus rounds just like Canny the Can and the Book of Time.
Let’s get straight into the pays then, and we have the mouse paying an impressive 250x for a 5 of a kind. This is followed by the snake and dead bird, both worth 75x for all five on an active payline. The last of the higher value symbols is the witch’s hat and the magic wand, both of which pay 50x if five connect. Representing the lower pays are the classic royal symbols, and even these pay well. We have the 10, J, Q, K, and Ace, which will reward you with wins of 5x, 5x, 12.5x, 12.5x, and 15x respectively, for a five of a kind win. The game comes fully equipped with a wild, which appears in the form of the book scatter. This substitutes for all other symbols and is also the joint paying top symbol at 250x if five hit on a payline.
Players can bet from just €0.10 a spin up to a maximum of €100 in standard play, with a good range of stakes to choose from between these amounts. Those who can activate the bonus buy feature have additional options, and I’ll cover that a little further into the review.
Base Game & Modifiers
The latest adventures of Canny the Can are set on a 5×4 reel format with 20 paylines in play. Banking yourself some money requires a minimum of three symbols to match from left to right. As for the base game, folks, that’s it. So without further ado, let’s get into those bonus features.
Canny The Can And The Book Of Time Slot Bonus Features
The two main bonus rounds then are the ” It’s a Classic ” free spins feature triggered when a minimum of three book scatters land in view, and the ” What Time Is It ” feature, which activates when three clock man scatters appear. Let’s see what these bonus rounds are all about below.
It’s A Classic
The more scatters that you trigger this feature with, the better, as it will activate more expanding symbols and give you more free spins, to begin with
- 3 Scatters: 10 free spins & 1 expanding symbol.
- 4 Scatters: 15 free spins & 2 expanding symbols.
- 5 Scatters: 20 free spins & 3 expanding symbols.
Once you the feature begins, you will need your selected symbol(s) to land on three or more reels for them to expand the entire length of the reel and pay you a win over 20 paylines. If three or more scatters land again, you will receive five additional spins and an extra expanding symbol. Once the special symbol bar above the gird is filled, no further re-triggers can be granted.
What Time Is It
When this free spin feature begins, clocks will appear above reels 2, 3, and 4, each showing a time between 1 – 12. If a special activator symbol lands on the reel below them, clock symbols drop down and replace all symbols in their path to multipliers. These contain the value of the time on their clock, and they will continue to make their way down the reel until they reach the special symbol. Multipliers can range between 1x and 12x, and if more than one is part of a winning line, their values will first be added together before being applied to the win.
Bonus Buy
If you’re lucky enough to be playing in a jurisdiction where youBonus can activate the bonus buy button on Canny the Can and the Book of Time, then five possible buy options are available for you to access. These are:
- Bonushunt Feaurespins 3x bet: Each spin is over four times likely to trigger a bonus game.
- It’s a Classic: 100x bet: 10 free spins and 1 expanding symbol.
- Even More Classic 200x bet: 15 free spins and 2 expanding symbols.
- The Most Classic 400x bet: 20 free spins and 3 expanding symbols.
- What Time Is It: 200x bet. Triggers the feature on the next spin.
Canny The Can And The Book Of Time Slot Review Final Thoughts
What’s not to enjoy here? We’ve got a classic feature mixed in with something completely different and a theme that I found to be a lot of fun. Yes, there is the element of ” not another book slot ” to it, but I think Hacksaw Gaming has done enough here to make this an enjoyable game to play, with some decent big win potential to back it up.
