Honeylock’s Pots

Honeylock’s Pots Slot Review

Goldilocks may have vanished into folklore, leaving chaos and an unpaid debt behind, but her story does not end there. Picking up the pieces is her old sister, Honeylocks, who returns to the forest with a clear purpose: to rebuild trust and make amends with the bears she wronged.

Where Goldilocks took, Honeylocks gives back, dedicating herself to filling their pots with rich, golden honey day after day…

Honeylock’s Pots from Quickspin emerges as a 5-reel video slot with 30 fixed pay lines, centred around Honeylocks and her mission. This game introduces the ‘3 Pots’ mechanic, alongside the equally impressive Honey’s Luck feature. Each spin contributes to Honeylocks’ effort to care for the bears, filling their pots to unlock Coins & Bonuses.

This is more than a fairytale continuation; it’s a story of redemption, loyalty, and sweet rewards. Step into the forest, help Honeylock keep her promise, and bet a part of her journey to set things right once and for all…

Base Game & Features

Honeylock’s Pots is a medium volatility (3/5) release with 5 reels, 4 rows, and 30 fixed pay lines. Winning combinations occur when 3, 4, or 5 matching symbols land on adjoining reels, starting from reel 1.

The Wooden House is the highest-paying symbol, followed by the Bed, Chair, Bowl, and A, K, Q, & J card suits. After a spin is complete, each winning combination awards a fixed payout between 0.1x and 20x your bet. Wild symbols substitute for all symbols except Honey, appearing on all reels.

Honey Symbols

During gameplay, 3 Honey symbols may land in view, linking to their respective Honey Pot above the reels: Grabber, Expander, & Prizepot. When a Honey symbol hits, it is collected into its corresponding Honey Pot above the reels, with a chance to trigger its Bonus Game.

In the Bonus Game, Honey symbols continue to appear in view, with the chance to trigger their respective Bonus Feature if not already active.

Honey Boost

If a Honey symbol fails to trigger its respective Bonus Game upon landing, the Honey Boost Feature may be awarded in exchange. Once active, Honeylock will appear on the screen, triggering the corresponding Bonus Game for that Honey symbol.

Honeylock’s Pots: Bonus Games

Triggering any of the Honey Pot Bonuses above the reels is done so by landing Honey symbols in the base game. The Mama Bear, Baby Bear, & Prizepot symbols become available once a Bonus Game is triggered.

Each Bonus Game begins with 3 Respins, which reset when a new Coin or Special symbol appears in view, with Coins awarding values between 0.2x and 25x your bet.

• Grabber Symbol: Adds the values of all other symbols on the unlocked grid to its own value upon landing
• Prizepot Symbol: Moves the Prizepot Meter forward by +1 step. If the current step has an associated prize, it is added to the Prizepot symbol. Steps 2, 4, 6, & 8 award Jackpot Prizes of Mini, Minor, Major, and Mega.
• Expander Symbol: Unlocks reels 2-5 of the reel area, up to a maximum of 15 positions. The 8th and 15th position award a maximum Respin increase of 5.

If a Wild symbol lands, it may randomly expand to cover the entire reel. If more than 1 Wild symbol expands, all other Wilds in view will expand too. With the Extra Bet on, the Honeylock Expand is guaranteed if any Wild symbols land in view at this time.

Extra Bet & Bonus Buy

Eligible players may purchase any of the following Extra Bet & Bonus Buy options:

• Extra Bet: For an extra 2x your bet, the Honeylock Expand feature is guaranteed during the Bonus Game, each time a Wild symbol lands in view.
• Bonus Game #1: For 30x their bet, players can enter a Bonus Game with 1+ features active.
• Bonus Game #2: For 50x their bet, players purchase a Bonus Game with 2+ features active.
• Bonus Game #3: For 85x their bet, players can play the Bonus Game with all 3 features active.

Honeylock’s Pots has a maximum win potential of 2,500x your bet. If a single session achieves this, the player returns to the base game with the qualifying amount.

Our Honest Verdict

When you first load into Honeylock’s Pots, it’s hard not to feel a sense of familiarity, almost as if you’ve landed back in a Quickspin’s earlier release, Big Bad Wolf: Pigs of Steel. That impression is understandable, given the shared fairytale theme and the use of wooden-style symbols, albeit without the pigs this time.

Despite the early comparisons, Honeylock’s Pots quickly sets itself apart from the Big Bad Wolf franchise, reintroducing the ‘3 Pots’ mechanic as its most prized feature. This time, players are working towards unlocking Prizepot, Grabber, and Expander bonus games, each delivering a mix of Coin Prizes, Special symbols, and effects.

For added appeal, Quickspin has included Mini, Minor, Major, & Mega Jackpots, topping out at 2,500x your bet, which ultimately sets a fairly modest max win potential. If you were hoping for more bite, it might be worth seeking out another fairytale, one with a happier ending than this.
