Let’s get the biggest surprise out of the way first: Bigfoot Riches (released by Onlyplay in August 2026) doesn’t have a free spins bonus round.
Instead, this 5×3 slot game keeps things incredibly simple. You’re joined by a fun, grinning blue yeti prospector leaning on a pickaxe, and there are only two special things that can happen while you play: a multiplier wheel that pops up after you win, and a jackpot round that triggers completely at random.
The game has medium volatility and a 96.06% Return to Player (RTP). Ultimately, the whole point of this slot is trying to hit the top jackpot, which pays out roughly 10,000x your bet.
Here is a closer look at how it plays.
A Multiplier Wheel on Every Win
Whenever you land a winning combination, the screen dims, and an ice-blue wheel drops down. The game asks you to “Click to Win the Multiplier.” The wheel has spaces for x3, x6, x9, or blank spots. If you land on a number, your win gets boosted.
Because there are no free spins in this game, the developers attached this wheel to every single win. It’s a nice touch that makes even tiny payouts feel a bit more exciting. For example, during my session, a tiny 0.25 win got tripled to 0.75.
There is a catch, though: clicking the wheel is just an illusion. The game has already decided what you’re going to get before the wheel even stops spinning. Once you realize your click doesn’t actually matter, watching the wheel spin every time you win starts to feel a little slow.
Scatters That Just Pay Cash
In most slot games, landing “scatter” symbols triggers a bonus round. Not here. In Bigfoot Riches, the glowing crystal symbols just pay out cash. If you land three or more anywhere on the screen, you win 2x, 10x, or 50x your bet.
That’s its only job. There are no free spins, no respins, and no bonus meters to fill up. Every spin is exactly the same, interrupted only by the multiplier wheel or the rare jackpot.
Five Jackpots (Triggered Completely at Random)
The game features five fixed jackpots: Mini (5x your bet), Minor (20x), Major (100x), Mega (1,000x), and Grand (10,000x). The game is very honest about these, they aren’t pooled with other games, and the ladder on the screen shows you exactly how much cash they are worth at your current bet size.
The frustrating part? The jackpot game triggers completely at random. There is nothing you can do to trigger it, and no meter to show you how close you are. When it finally does happen, you play a mini-game where you break open frozen blocks to reveal colored gems. Match three gems of the same color, and you win that specific jackpot.
Because it’s completely random, playing can start to feel a bit aimless. You just have to press spin and hope for the best.
Fun Artwork, But Hard to Read
Visually, the game looks like a high-quality Saturday morning cartoon. The yeti is a great character, he wears a mining helmet with a candle on it and leans on his pickaxe as if your spinning is none of his business. The Yeti is also the “Wild” symbol and pays out the most.
However, the game has a visual flaw: almost everything is ice blue. The paw prints, pickaxes, and mugs all blend into the blue background. When the reels are spinning, it’s hard to tell the symbols apart. Only the bright pink crystal really stands out on the screen.
(On the top end: the most the game has been seen to pay is 10,232x your bet, and the 10,000x Grand Jackpot is almost all of it. A full screen of Wilds is worth 5,000x, so short of the Grand there is nothing here that gets close.)
What Works and What Doesn’t
What Works:
- The multiplier wheel: Triggering on every win gives small payouts a nice little boost.
- The jackpot ladder: It’s totally honest and easy to read. It shows you exactly how much cash you’ll win based on your bet.
- The artwork: The yeti character design is fantastic and adds a lot of charm.
What Doesn’t Work:
- No sense of progress: With no free spins or collection meters, losing streaks can feel pretty boring.
- Random jackpots: Because the jackpot triggers randomly, it gives you nothing specific to aim for.
- Fake interactivity: The “click to spin” wheel is just an illusion since the prize is already decided, making the animation feel tedious over time.
- Blurry symbols: The low-paying symbols are all blue and blend right into the background.
The Verdict
Bigfoot Riches is a very simple game. Adding a multiplier wheel to every win is a smart way to make up for the lack of a bonus round, and it definitely helps keep the smaller wins interesting. But there isn’t much else going on, and a session settles into the same loop fairly quickly: spin, small win, wheel, spin.
Because the main attraction, the jackpot round, is completely random, you can’t strategize or build up to it. If you’re the kind of player who likes to turn on “autoplay,” sit back, and hope for a random jackpot without worrying about complex bonus features, you might enjoy this one. But if you prefer games with free spins and a sense of progression, this yeti might leave you out in the cold.
