About Love Bugs
Cryptologic’s Love Bugs is one which has become increasingly popular with online casino players in recent years. It is actually hard to see why. Love Bugs is not the most endearing video slot by any means, nor is it the most original when it comes to theme. It certainly doesn’t have the best graphics, either. Instead, perhaps the reason why this 5-reel, 9-payline video slot has become quite popular is due to its cheap wagers? Another reason that it could be a hit is that it is so simple that it is ideal for all first time slot players? Of course, the fact that it has a non-progressive jackpot which is worth 5,000 coins, and some amazing special features are also possibilities.
Special Features
At the bottom of the reels sits the gaming menu bar. From there, players can adjust the number of lines that they wish to play with, although with only 9 available in total, you’ll probably wish to play with the lot. Line bets can range from a low of 0.10 up to 5.00 in total. This means that Love Bugs has a floor bet of just 0.10 per line, per spin, and a capped ceiling bet which is fixed at 45.00 per spin.
There are two wilds in this slot. The Lady Bug icon only appears on the first reel, whilst the Love Bug icon only appears on the fifth reel. They can substitute themselves for all other icons in the game, with the exception being scatter icons.
If you want to know what scatter icons look like, just look for the love heart. These icons can appear on the first, to fifth reels and count from left to right as well as right to left. Scattered heart icons can see players pocket pay-outs of 1x, 4x, 10x or 100x their total bet, if 2, 3, 4 or 5 of them appear anywhere on the reels.
Bonus Features
If the player lands Lady Bug and Love Bugs on the first and fifth reels respectively, at the same time, then they will trigger the Bug Catch bonus. In this bonus round, bugs can be caught from four falling bridges. If the player catches a diamond ring, all prizes will be tripled. Players can also bag 15 free games by landing the necklace during this feature.
With special features like this, suddenly it becomes all too clear why Love Bug really has become a hit.
