Flowers Slot

On the surface, it might seem shallow, but the Flowers Slot has a lot of fans thanks to the generous Free Spins, Double symbols, and Stacked Wilds. In fact, it became so popular that gave reason to NetEnt later (in 2015) to release the Flowers Christmas Edition Slot a first clone/re-skin, and in 2020 to publish a second re-skin – the Happy Riches Slot (with Asian theme).

Anyone can sympathize with the pink plumpy peony, blue small squill, the rose, sunflower, or the green immature bulb and the motley palette of their happy, dumb, or angry “faces.”

The slot is built with Medium-High Volatility and an initial RTP of 96.32%. The RTP allows obtaining a positive mathematical expectation of winning in the casino.

Personal testers’ opinion about Flowers slot (Review and recommendations from the testers’ team)

Despite its elementary display of plain symbols and uncomplicated gameplay, the Flowers slot stands out with the original principle of aligning combinations by considering double symbols.

Flowers is one difficult to analyze slot. It seems that always has a small prize pool for winnings (or it is unpopular). We’ve tried to test it with various stakes and conclude that the highest potential of a good win in this machine is with small bets (close to minimum bet).

Throughout our game test period, we made the following observations:

Regarding the base game

The slot causes some mixed feelings and has both positive and negative reviews. Huge winning combinations are rarely issued in the main game. It should be said that payouts for 5 symbol combinations are quite high, and in most cases, easily recoup for previous empty spins.

Regarding the bonus round

Bonuses here are triggered rarely. On some occasions, you can wait for the bonus feature, even for 500 spins. Usually, after that, this bonus-less interval is compensated by several bonuses in a row. There were sessions where new bonuses were not triggered, with the slot repeating 200+ spins without a bonus game.

The bonus game will also try to compensate for the loss in the main game and give winnings with average values of 100x – 250x total bets. Of course, like in any slot, there are some bonus rounds with smaller wins up to 50x.

Slot’s symbols and features

• This is a game with a 5×3 playfield and 30 fixed pay lines.
• The low-paid symbols are the 4 playing cards: A, K, Q, and J.
• The high-paid symbols are the pink peony, blue squill, the rose, sunflower, and the green bulb.
• Anyone of the flower symbols can come as a Single or Double. The doubles count as 2 symbols.

• The Wild symbol is the Sun, and it substitutes for all the symbols except for the Free Spin icon and the Double symbols. During Free Spins, the Wild can drop stacked, increasing the winning chances. The Wild – Sun is also the top paid symbol- for 5OAK 5000 coins.
• Free Spins symbol (Scatter) is the Cloud and can come as a single or double symbol. 4+ Free Spins icons trigger the Free Spins feature. You will be awarded 10, 15, 20, 25, or 30 spins, depending on the number of the triggering symbols. 4 + Free Spins icons will activate the re-trigger during the already started feature. Also, there is a multiplier (x2, x4, or x10) attached to the wins during the feature, depending on the number of triggering symbols.
• Bonus Free Spins with Stacked Wilds – During this bonus feature, stacked Wilds are dropping, and taking the entire reel. The maximum winning potential of the slot is 75 000 coins and can be received in this mode.

NetEnt declares the following probabilities

• From the initial RTP: 65.7% is the return in the usual spins and 30.6% during the Free Spins.
• The probability of getting any winning during the usual spins is 44.7%, and during the Free Spins is 54.6 %( with Wild symbols).
• The probability of triggering the Free Spins is 0.66%.
• The maximum payout in the usual spins is 25 000 coins per pay line, during the Free Spins is 75 000 coins (on a single bet line, i.e. 2 250 000 coins coinciding). The maximum winning possibility is thus calculated at 15000x the total bet.

Hidden parameters and characteristics (data from testing)

• The frequency of triggering the bonus feature is statistically every 141st spin (0.71%). This is a normal number, slightly higher than the middle line.
• The probability of a hit (any winning) is 44.39%. Flowers slot gives a lot of small winnings (even smaller than the initial bet).
• The winning distribution is 60% in the usual spins and 40% in the bonus feature. Our test results show an approximately 10% difference from NetEnt’s official numbers.
• The maximum winning during our tests was 590x. This is a big win for a slot with average volatility. It has the potential of winning during the free spins with stacked wilds.
• The average winning from the bonus feature throughout our test sessions was 50x.
• This number is slightly above average for NetEnt.
• The Volatility is 6.89 out of 20 (average).
• The rating of the slot machine for the wagering is 5.87 out of 10.
• RTP of 96.32% allows you to get a positive mathematical expectation of winning at the Canadian online casino.
• The Flowers slot is liked for its bonus game potential. It can give many wild symbols (perhaps even a full screen) and bring the win amount to several thousand bets! This machine has one of the highest potentials among all slots of this provider!

How to win at Flowers slot? (Conclusion)

• As usual, our first advice is to test the game in DEMO mode before starting to play for real money.
• We recommend this slot to bonus hunters, but we strongly suggest choosing a minimum stake (or around) to complete the wagering requirements in the Flowers slot.
• We also advise finding big and popular online casinos with a lot of active players (bigger prize pool)
• if you want to play for the bonus money, check the slot mood first (‘hot’ or ‘cold’).
• This slot is also suitable for playing with real money.
• The recommended minimum balance should be at about 250x bets.
• Your main goal must be to wait for the bonus Free Spins, where the Flowers slot is at its full potential. You need composure and bankroll to wait for the bonus feature, for it can be triggered after a long chain of spins (even 500) if the machine is ‘cold.’ If you are lucky, there are reasonably good odds that the bonus will be repeated briefly after the first. Once a lucrative bonus is received, play some 50 more spins, and if good outcomes are not coming, take a pause or move to another slot.
• It seems that the slot doesn’t behave well with medium stakes. Instead, it is possible to hit 500x or 600x+ here via small bets.
• However, we recommend this slot to players who use the tactic ‘all or nothing,’ i.e. those who are willing to lose everything to score big.
• For all the wary players, who desire steady wins, it is recommended to check out the Flowers Christmas edition machine.
