Play Farmer Bob for Free

It may seem strange to some people, but you can actually grow food from the ground. You know, the fruit and veg things that come sliced up in microwavable pouches which you can buy in the supermarket? Well, a long time before they made their way to the shelves, they were covered in mud and buried deep under the ground. Pretty disgusting when you think about it...

Players of this farm themed slot machine can get closer to the source of their fruit and veg by helping Farmer Bob line up his produce across the reels. And if you do so in the right payline pattern, the old codger will throw some cash prizes your way. The fruits in question include bananas, peaches, plums, grapes, watermelons and strawberries, all of which are designed with bright colours to show off their nutritional lustre. The reels themselves are position in a wooden frame in front of a blooming orchard scene with the iconic red bard in the background. It's an idyllic pastoral scene that would rival any other farm themed slot machine online.

The fruits on this video slot machine may look ripe, but there not quite ripe for the picking. The slot has a medium to high volatility, meaning that the prize money isn't going to fall directly from the trees into your palms of your hands. However, when the symbols do line up, punters will be in store for some fruitful winnings with a top line bet multiplier worth 5,000x for five Farmer Bob symbols on a payline.

Unfortunately, the ultimate winning potential of the game is held back by some relatively low wagering options. That is because players can place total bets worth between 0.10 credits and 5.00 credits, meaning that the biggest possible jackpot is going to be 2,500 coins. With that in mind, this slot is definitely better suited to those punters who are after a relaxing countryside stroll as oppose to high rollers who want to plough straight into the ground with a combine harvester full of big bets. Spinners can raise the stakes, however, with a 50/50 gamble card game.

The countryside may be nice to look at, but there isn't really a lot to do out there when it comes to fun and entertainment (besides going to the pub). This is reflected in this slot machine due to the lack of exciting bonus features such as free spins or side games. There isn't even a wild symbol to help players complete their base game wins. There is, however, a ladybird scatter symbol that will pay total bet wins worth 2x, 10x and 50x whenever three, four or five appear in any reel position. Players will also notice that they can create wins on the 10 paylines even if the combination doesn't begin on the leftmost reel.

The countryside is pretty big, and there is plenty of room for farmland. As such, players will find a range of farm-themed slot machines online such as Money Farm by GameArt, Fields of Fortune by Ash Gaming and Golden Farm by Push Gaming. In terms of gameplay, there are quite a few slots online which match Farmer Bob, including Just Jewels Deluxe by Novomatic and 5 Dazzling Hot by EGT. As you can see, this suggests that the lack of bonus elements makes this slot machine more like a retro themed game than an all out video slot.

If you want to get free from the stress of the city to enjoy the simple life, then this Xplosive Slots slot machine is a good option. The reels are designed to relay the basic pleasures of the natural world with bright and happy colours. That said, some punters might find the gameplay of this slot a bit too simple to keep them entertained.
