Holiday Slot Review: Cabin Fever

Historically, slot machines have also been called “fruit machines” because of the long history of images of fruit being used as the images on the reels. The online slot title Cabin Fever hearkens back to that trend, albeit with a twist! This slot game is one designed to be played in the winter, and focuses on a family of furry creatures holed up inside their burrow for the duration of the cold weather. Appropriately, the fruit are all frozen! The giggles you experience while playing this silly title ought to stave off the shivers!

Cabin Fever is a five-reel, twenty-payline online slot game from online software design giant Microgaming. Coin values range from two cents to fifty cents, with max coins set at two hundred. The wide spread of possible bets ensures that gamblers and slot machine fans of all income brackets will be able to enjoy this engaging title. The top prize is a jackpot of five thousand coins. While twenty-five hundred dollars is surely a modest pot, its small size means that this game hits often!

Cherries, oranges, lemons, plums, and melons are just some of the fruit that have apparently caught a case of frostbite on the reels of this game. You will also notice scenes from the domestic life of the small creatures that are the game’s main characters – a squabbling brother and sister, and the dad hoarding some acorns, for example. If the sun symbol should happen to shine on you from at least two places on the reels, you score twenty free spins, during which all winnings are DOUBLED! There is also an elementary “red or black” bonus game to keep things interesting.
