Scruffy Duck Slot by NetEnt Review
How about a party with some ducks?
How about a party with some ducks?
Quack-quack! Let’s have fun with some ducks (don’t get us wrong, we’re sane...maybe). So, a real party with those birds starts when you trigger the Double Feature mode of the free spins round: you’re granted 6 spins and Scruffy Duck randomly chooses 2 offers from the four available bonus rounds (two bonuses in one round). It’s ducking awesome when your bet is multiplied by 3 and there are plenty of wilds on the reels! Before we kick the bucket, due to sheer delight, we should tell you that you can win up to 1000 times of your initial bet!
NetEnt never disappoints its players, and the Scruffy Duck Slot is a perfect example of it. The first impression is rather vague - there are so many Wilds that you can easily get confused about what’s happening. But a few minutes of uninterrupted game will be enough to become familiar with the slot. The game offers you 25 paylines, which are scattered among 5 reels, and 3 rows. The RPT is 96.38%, the volatility is average/high. Feel free to read the review to the end - there is yet much to be said.

Features and Bonuses
Scruffy Duck by NetEnt - Bonus Features
The Scruffy Duck slot is full of features. In addition to the bonus round, there are three types of wilds:
- An ugly duck which lands on the reels during the regular game. It transforms into a beautiful swan and expands to cover entire reel if there is a winning bet line.
- Random Wild - This symbol can be seen on the reels during the bonus round which bears the same name as the symbol.
- Colossal Wild - Appears on the reels during the Colossal Wild Bonus round.
Scruffy Duck won’t allow you to get bored during the game. It has such an exciting bonus round that we feel we’re getting nuts about it. So, to trigger it, you have to get three Free Spins symbols on reels 3, 4, or 5. After that, five ducks will, one by one, hit a lake like meteorites You should pick one of these carcasses to provide you with the next bonus features:
- X3 Multiplier: you receive 15 Free Spins and all winnings will be multiplied by 3;
- Symbol Removal: the game has 2 regular types of symbols: Low win and Medium Win. During that bonus round, you’re granted with 12 Free Spins and all Low win symbols are withdrawn from the reels. So, you have a nice chance to win heaps of coins with the use of all those Medium Win symbols and expanding wild feature;
- Colossal Wild: You’re granted 10 Free Spins as well as a special Colossal Wild symbol that is added to the reels. It can land on the reels either fully or partly. Afterwards, the symbol splits into 2 to 9 singleton Wilds. Bear in mind, that besides Colossal Wild, the regular Wild symbol (the ugly duck) also appears on the reels. So if you get lucky, you can get a full screen of wilds which will lead to an exceedingly huge winning.
- Random Wild: The game gives you 8 Free Spins and adds Random Wild symbols to the reels. After every spin, from 2 to 5 Random Wilds falls from the top, randomly choose one of the cells, and supplant the previously appeared symbol. This bonus feature is similar to Colossal Wild - here you can receive a full screen of wilds as well.
- Double Feature: Last but not least. This bonus feature creates quite a strong stir among players. The game randomly chooses two of the four features listed above and gives you 6 Free Spins. To get the biggest winning, the best combination must be x3 Multiplier and Random Wild, but we’ve won plenty of coins with other combinations too.

Ui, visuals and sounds
We must be kinda peculiar, but with that graphics and sounds, you will find yourself strolling around a pond with some ducks under the escort of cool music as well as sounds of flies and frogs. And when the bonus round is triggered, a real disco-party starts: all the flies, frogs, ducks, and maybe even you will be eccentrically dancing. That’s our first impression of the Scruffy Duck slot. Perhaps you have another view on that, but if the symbols were animated, you would certainly understand us. Keep reading the review to find out more useful information.
