Coinfest Review

Platipus have more than 70 releases to their name by now, so it’s clear that they know what they are doing. They wouldn’t last this long otherwise, after all, as the online slot industry is incredibly competitive. In any case, we’re here to take a closer look at Coinfest, so let’s do just that, starting with its playing field that consists of 5 reels, 3 rows and 25 paylines.

The Oktoberfest festival is growing in popularity, and it’s perhaps even become another Halloween of sorts. That event gives every studio a chance to release a new slot, and that seems to be the new trend with Oktoberfest as well. Coinfest is banking on it big time, and its graphics are fresh and animated. You can’t do a whole lot with sausages and beer, but the designers did a good job here!

Coinfest Slot – Reels Screen

The mathematical model of Coinfest combines a high volatility level with a solid 5,570x jackpot. You can jump into the action for stakes between £0.25 and £25 per spin, but the slot’s theoretical RTP is only 95%, which is one percent below the 96% industry average.

Coinfest Slot Features

There are 9 pay symbols in Coinfest’s paytable, and they are divided into 5 low-paying symbols and 4 high-paying symbols.

For low-paying symbols, there are card ranks from Tens to Aces. For high-paying symbols, on the other hand, there are pretzels, sausages, pints of beer, and waitresses.

Aside from pay symbols, there are also three special symbols in Coinfest - Character Wilds, Beer Keg Scatters and Coins. Character Wilds are the most straightforward of those symbols, as the only thing they can do is substitute for pay symbols in winning combos. They can’t appear on the first reel, but they can cover more than just a single position.

Coinfest Slot – Free Spins Feature

Land 3 or more Beer Keg Scatters to trigger the Free Spins feature with 8 free spins. Retriggers are possible, and the kicker is that there are no low-paying symbols on the reels during free spins.

Hit 6 or more Coin symbols to get to the Respins feature with 6 respins.

You’ll get 6 respins to start with, but there are no typical resets. Instead, you have to find +1 symbols to get extra respins. You can get special – and more valuable – Silver and Gold Coins, though, and you can even win the slot’s Grand jackpot worth 5,000x by filling the entire board with Coins before running out of respins.

Finally, you can use the Buy Bonus menu and purchase one of the features above. While the Free Spins feature will cost you 50x your bet, the Respins feature will set you back by 40x your bet. Note that using this menu lowers the game’s RTP to 94%.

Review Summary

Coinfest is a surprisingly complex Oktoberfest-themed slot from Platipus that combines two good gameplay features rather well. Its Respins feature isn’t formulaic, which is to be appreciated, though we can’t be excited by the subpar RTP that gets even worse with the Buy Bonus menu. There aren’t that many Oktoberfest-themed games out there, though, and Coinfest is certainly one of the best!

Pros

• Oktoberfest theme
• Free spins without low pays
• Respins feature with juicy wins and a 5,000x jackpot

Cons

• Subpar 95% RTP
• Buy Bonus menu lowers the game’s RTP
