The gameplay, bets, features, and bonuses of Siberian Express revolve around its fun jailbreak narrative. I found that game sessions can be spasmodic, but winning combos hit often enough to keep me interested. The suspense build-up in the Bear Capture Bonus made it a feature I want to play again, despite experiencing the frustration and elation of its different payouts. Bonus Buy options polarized my opinion, with one making me want to play it often, and the other one leaving me looking for a dark cave to hibernate in.
Enjoy the Suspense of the Bear Capture Bonus
The respin counter of the Bear Capture Bonus builds suspense while playing this top feature of Siberian Express. It starts at three but drops by one if no new bear money symbols appear. Each time the counter reached one, I found myself on the edge of my seat, as another bear awards three more respins and potentially lots more winning chances. Police car collect symbols do their part to elevate the excitement, as each one can multiply the values of all the bears it rounds up by up to 3x. After triggering this feature twice in under 200 spins, I thought returns of 76x and 39x were fair if short of inspiring.
Bonus Buy Options That Polarized My Opinions
The bonus buy options of Siberian Express both feature grizzly bears, but they polarized my opinion. Beware, Police is an option to buy the Bear Capture Bonus, and returns of 78x, 146x, and 21x suggested to me that it was a fair option for players looking for a quick option to play a feature at 75x the bet.
Elite Patrol is a second bonus buy option that only high rollers should consider at a cost of 1,400x the bet. It’s not one I can recommend based on my experiences, as returns of 125x and 20x left me considering hibernation as a viable option due to those massive bankroll hits.
