About Cabin Fever
Cabin Fever is one of Microgaming’s simpler video slots. If you were expecting an aircraft themed video slot, you are in for a surprise. Cabin Fever is actually about a group of animals that are “squirreling away” for the cold winter months ahead. Designed over 5 reels and with 20 paylines for you to play on, Cabin Fever is not exactly a complex title. Players can expect to wager anything from a minimum bet of 0.01 per line, per spin; up to a maximum wager of just 100.00 per spin. In exchange, players are entitled to compete to win a non-progressive jackpot worth 5,000 coins in all.
Special Features
The frozen “wild” logo is this slot’s substitute symbol, and when it is used to complete a winning payline, it will double the amount that you win. It also doubles up as a jackpot paying icon, offering the non-progressive jackpot when 5 or more icons are located on any active payline. Wilds can replace all other symbols in the game, barring the scatter and free spins symbols.
A squirrel is Cabin Fever’s scatter icon. When players locate 2, 3, 4 or 5 of them anywhere on the reels, they will pick up scattered wins of 1x, 2x, 15x or 200x their total stake. The scatter icons do not offer free spins in this game. There is another icon for that.
A gamble feature has been included into this slot. After a player successfully wins a payline, they can choose to gamble those winnings if they wish. In the gamble game, players can choose what they think the next card will be. Your options are red or black. This gives the player a 50-50 chance of success. If they guess correctly, they will double their money. However, should they guess incorrectly, they will leave the gamble round with absolutely nothing!
Bonus Feature
The sun icon is incredibly important in this game. If the player can find it on the first and fifth reels at the same time, they will trigger the free spins bonus round. This free spins bonus grants the player 20 free spins. During this bonus round, all winnings that are acquired are doubled. Free spins can also be retriggered by landing the same symbols on the first and fifth reels once more.
Cabin Fever’s free spins bonus round is relatively easy to trigger, and provides pretty decent wins.
