Millions of people around the world love nothing more than drizzling some honey on their morning toast and yoghurt or perhaps giving their daily fruit intake a bit of a kick by dipping it in this sweet substance. The whole honey concept is lost on me, though; I’m more of a jam person myself and would much prefer a bit of raspberry or strawberry spread across my brekkie for my first meal of the day. When it comes to online slots, however, that beautiful sweet nectar is incredibly enticing, so my senses were heightened today when the Print Studios Honey Hunters slot appeared on my Radar. Stats-wise, I can tell you this is a 5-reel game with 243 ways to win, an RTP of 96.61%, and a max win of 10,000x bet.
The slot takes place in a bee hive, with all the worker bees doing their job of collecting any honey they can find. This benefits you, too, as the more honey is collected, the more base game features you can unlock and trigger. Each honey collection also gives a chance to receive spins on a wheel that can reward instant prizes up to 1,000x the stake, spins with spreading frames, and more honey. There’s also a free spins bonus that starts with just a single unlocked premium symbol, with the rest coming into play as you, yes, you’ve guessed it, collect more honey.
Bee-themed slots are surprisingly popular with our visitors. I guess you can say you all get a buzz out of playing them! Well, now you’ve got another one to swarm, too, as we’ve added a free Honey Hunters demo slot for you to play. It’s available to try below.

Theme, Stakes, Pays & Symbols
If you’re searching out more free slots online to play that are bee-inspired, then you’re spoilt for choice, with some fantastic titles being added to this genre. The original Wild Swarm demo from Push Gaming is an excellent place to start, with the developers Wild Swarm 2 demo being the next logical place to visit after that. NetEnt’s Bee Hive Bonanza is another interesting slot game to visit, whilst the Pragmatic Play demo StickyBees rounds off a good selection of recommendations for you to try out when you’re done with our Honey Hunters slot review today.
Make sure you check those slots out later, but before then, I suggest you stick around for Honey Hunters, as it’s got tons of features to check out. Before I get into those, I want to tell you about the paytable and what payouts are available. The Scatter Symbol tops the charts and pays the best with a 100x the stake return when five symbols land anywhere in view. The Wild and the Cardinal Chief follow, both offering up to 20x, while the Nectar Chief returns a maximum of 10x. Petal Paladina and Aphid Alan are the final two premiums and bring with them payouts of 2x and 1.5x, respectively. Moving onto the smaller pays, Stinger Steve is the best-paying low-value symbol with 1x on offer for a winning combo of five, while the four different flower symbols will pay up to 0.4x.
Entering the hive and spinning for real money on Honey Hunters will cost from a minimum of €0.10 to a maximum of €100.00. There are 13 options within this range, so players of all sized budgets shouldn’t have any problems finding a suitable entry point.
Base Game & Modifiers
The Honey Hunters slot uses a 5×3 reel configuration that offers 243 ways to win. Winning combinations are created when matching symbols are landed across successive reels. All symbols require three or more instances to earn a payout, except the Wild and Cardina Chief, which only need two.
Honey Forge Features
To the left of the reels is a Honey Forge meter that fills up as you collect the honey from premium symbols carrying some. This meter has five levels, each representing a different feature. You can click the button to claim any unlocked feature at any time, which will use up all the honey collected. Activating any feature will cost 1x your stake. The features are:
- Spreading Wild Feature: A wild symbol and one to four spreading frames are guaranteed to land on the spin.
- Free Spins: You receive the standard free spins bonus round with just the Alphid Alan premium symbol unlocked.
- Free Spins with Petal Paladin Active: You receive the free spins round with Petal Paladin and Alphid Alan unlocked.
- Free Spins with Nectar Nomad Active: You receive the free spins round with Nectar Nomad, Petal Paladin, and Alphid Alan unlocked.
- Free Spins with Cardinal Chief Active: You receive the free spins round with Cardinal Chief, Nectar Nomad, Petal Paladin, and Alphid Alan unlocked.
Wild Symbols & The Spreading Feature
There are both regular wild symbols, along with any standard symbols that, when covered in honey, will also act as a wild. They substitute for all regular symbols when winning combinations are possible. If the wild contains a premium-paying symbol, it will spread to other positions and convert them to that symbol.
Wheel Feature
Triggered randomly whenever honey is collected on the reels, this feature gives you a spin of a wheel that can reward prizes. There are blanks and different sections containing prizes. You keep spinning and collecting those prizes until a spin lands on a blank. The prizes up for grabs are:
- Honey: This will add Honey to the Honey meter. If you max out this section of the wheel, it fills the meter completely.
- Coins: There are two coin sections. One rewards prizes of 5x, 10x, or 20x, and the other 10x, 20x, 50x, 100x, or 1,000x.
- Spreading Frames: Rewards a spin with one, two, three, four, or five spreading frames.
Honey Hunters Slot Bonus Features
While there’s already a lot going on in the base game of the Honey Hunters slot, there’s still the main event to look forward to. It’s a free spins bonus that triggers once three or more scatter symbols land anywhere in view.
Free Spins Feature
At the start of the free spins bonus, the lowest value premium symbol is unlocked. However, as you collect honey during the feature, you can unlock up to four of the remaining premiums via the honey collect feature to the left of the reels. Wild symbols give you an additional free spin and will leave a spreading frame that is sticky on the reels.
Bonus Buy
Anyone who wants to trigger the free spins immediately can use the bonus buy feature to purchase the spins for 80x the current stake.
Pros
- Such a great mix of features.
- Solid max win of 10k.
Cons
- The collection element of the slot game might not be for everyone's taste.
Honey Hunters Slot Review Final Thoughts
I’m not going to lie—Honey Hunters left me buzzing—and that’s not just a cheesy bee-ism—alright, perhaps a little, but I had a great time testing this slot. There’s a ton of stuff going on in the base game, and for me, that’s important if developers want players to stick around and keep spinning. Honey Hunters is undoubtedly one of the best slots I've reviewed in the last month.
