Le Kaffee Bar from Microgaming features free spins in the base game and a free spins bonus round. It offers a max win of 2,833.33x your stake - wouldn't that perk you up more than your regular cup of joe?
You’ll want to sit down and relax with a cup of coffee as you spin the reels on Microgaming’s new slot, Le Kaffee Bar. This coffee-themed slot includes free spins in the base game and a free spins bonus round; the max win is 2,833.33x your stake.
Slot Specs
Le Kaffee Bar is a 5-reel, 243-ways-to-win slot that’s playable on all devices from $.30 to $30 per spin. It has the feel of a classic coffee shop - you’ll see A, K, Q, J, 10 and 9 card symbols on a chalkboard menu; other symbols include coffee mugs, cupcakes, female and male baristas, and a red-headed coffee-drinker. The latter is the highest-paying symbol and awards 10x your stake when 5 land on a payline. The 3 people symbols can appear triple stacked on the 3 middle reels.
Wild Spin Again Feature
When 3 matching symbols land in a vertical or horizontal position, you’ll get 1 free spin. During that free spin, the middle symbol transforms into a wild and is stuck in place, giving you more chances to form winning combos.
Scatter Collection Feature
This is where you can rack up some big wins. When the coffee mug scatter lands on reels 1 or 5, you’ll be awarded a coffee cup. When you collect 10 or more coffee cups, you win free spins and multipliers.
10 coffee cups will award you 10 free spins and a 3x multiplier, 20 coffee cups will give you 15 free spins and a 4x multiplier, and 30 cups will give you 18 free spins and a 5x multiplier. A 5x multiplier can give you a maximum payout of 2,833.33x your stake on every free spin - so it pays to wait until you collect 30 coffee cups to maximize your winnings. During the free spins, you can continue collecting coffee cups to retrigger the feature.
Bottom Line
For a slot that’s all about coffee, Le Kaffee Bar is pretty mellow. We would have liked to see some more special features from an industry giant like Microgaming. However, as a low variance slot, Le Kaffee Bar can be a good option for players who enjoy frequent, small wins. If you're looking for a rush, though, better make yourself a cup of coffee.
