Bar Bar Black Sheep

Review

The Bar Bar Black Sheep online pokie from Microgaming is a Nursery Rhyme themed online pokie which has a total of 5 reels and 15 winning paylines. This game was launched simultaneously across multiple platforms (Flash, download, mobile and Quickfire) and this means that Australian players can enjoy playing on this game using any decent Windows or Mac operating desktop computer, or using a modern smartphone or tablet device. You also have the option of being able to play on this game just for fun in the free play demo mode or you can play for real prizes in the real money mode.

The player controls are located beneath the reels and the first thing that you want to do is set your stake using these responsive buttons. When you set your coin size to just 0.01 and the number of coins to 1/20, it means that low rollers can place a bet from as little as 0.15 coins per spin. When you increase these two values to the maximum amount allowed (2.00 coin size and 20/20 coins) it basically means that high rollers can spend up to as much as 600.00 coins per spin. In other words, everyone can enjoy playing on this pokie, no matter what their budget is and there is no way that you can adjust the number of paylines that each spin is played with.

The main special symbols to keep an eye out for when playing on this fun-filled pokie include the Bar Bar Black Sheep Logo’s and also the Cotton Wool Symbols. The Bar Bar Black Sheep Logo is the Wild Symbol and the Cotton Wool is the Scatter Symbol. The only symbols that the Wild Symbols don’t have the ability to substitute are the Scatter Symbols and these Wild Symbols also happen to be the top-paying symbols on this pokie. Some of the other regular symbols that you will see appearing on the reels include Plums, Apples, Sweet Corn, Oranges, Water Melons, Single Bars, a Barn, a White Sheep and a Black Sheep.

One of the most exciting things that can trigger during normal play is the Bar Bar Black Sheep Bonus and when this triggers you can win up to 999x times your total bet. This fun in-play feature will only ever trigger when two Bar Symbols and One Black Sheep Symbol land in consecutive order across the reels (spelling out “Bar Bar Black Sheep”). A mini set of reels will then show up and this will produce a random multiplier to help boost your balance. The great news about this feature is that it doesn’t seem to take forever to trigger. The Wild Symbols CANNOT contribute towards triggering this special feature.

The other notable feature on this game is a Free Spins Bonus Round and this will only ever trigger when three or more of the Bags of Cotton Wool Scatter Symbols land in any position across the reels. If the bare minimum 3 Scatter Symbols show up you will be awarded 10 Free Spins, 4 Scatter Symbols appearing anywhere in view will trigger 15 Free Spins and a maximum of 20 Free Spins will be awarded when 5 Scatter Symbols show up anywhere in view. All line wins during this bonus round will automatically be tripled, apart from the Bar Bar Black Sheep Feature wins, plus Free Spins can also be retriggered.

The Bar Bar Black Sheep online pokie is a great game that most pokie enthusiasts will probably enjoy. The wins seem to be quite frequent and although the Bar Bar Black Sheep Feature can trigger quite often, it seems to take much longer for the Free Spins Bonus Round to trigger, but it can be extremely rewarding when it does eventually trigger. You can play on this game right now at a growing number of fully licensed Australian online casinos which are powered by Microgaming software.
