Review and recommendations by our testing team

  • Goldilocks and the Wild Bears is based on the fairy tale, in this case, Masha and Bears. The slot has the usual high-quality symbol and pleasant sound, and the potential to give a big winning, but I'm personally disappointed.
  • The slot keeps the balance very poorly, making large series of spins with no payment combinations, or only small winnings ranging from less than the bet to just a few total bets, and rarely (15-25% of the time) gives out larger winnings.
  • The potential for winning larger in the usual spins is extremely low and is practically not available because of the hard combinations (the slot often does not give out the desired symbol or trigger them in the fourth or fifth reels). Also, the slot often is adding scatters (Masha) in the lines and like this is not making pay combinations but also not triggering free spins.
  • Free spins are triggered once in 150-200 spins, but sometimes the machine has bigger distances between the features and does not always compensate for them with a series of free spins. Also, the slot machine very often gives two scatters, making you play further. Gameplay free spins are triggered only by scatters, and the number of them will turn this many Bear symbols into wild ones, and also awards additional spins. The potential of a big win until all scatters are won is minimal because the fact that “masks”, as well as in the usual spins, are falling between the other symbols in the line and like this are not making payment combinations, and in rare cases, it was possible to get a line of 5 wild to scatter symbols. The average winnings of such free spin features are 10x-30x bets, and occasionally there were free spins with a win of less than 10x total bets, which is extremely low, considering how rare the free spins are triggered and the bad balance keeping. Full filling of the “Masha” bar also does not guarantee a large win, for the same reasons - the “twisting” of reels and different symbols (usually in the fourth or fifth reels), although the scatter symbols do not interfere anymore.
  • The average win is 60x - 120x bets, and the maximum winnings, one time was 180x and 250x total bets. The potential to win more is extremely low since the wild line of symbols (which leads only to gather maximum Masha’s symbols) is made to only 50x. Even with the maximum multiplayer x4 (which practically cannot be won, and you should count on multiplayer x2 and, as maximum x3), the potential winning will be 100x - 200x bets per spin. You will get more spin after winning all "Masha", respectively, the theoretical potential of the slot - 200x-600x, and the real maximum – 300x total bets.

Goldilocks is not recommended playing with an active bonus since the slot is bad at keeping the balance while waiting for the free spins, (the slot game easily can take 250x-300x bets), the potential of which is not high. When playing for real money, I would recommend only short game sessions of no more than 50-100 spins in order to get a bonus game, and immediately leave the slot, regardless of the result. You shouldn’t play long this machine because winning large is rare and the risk of losing even bigger is high. When it gives out 2 scatter often you should leave it, or prepare for large losses.

Personal testers opinion

This machine, like many others from Quickspin, is very straight. Usually, it is enough to do 50-100 spins in Goldilocks and the Wild Bears slot to understand if it is hot or cold. The player should have enough patience to look at two scatters with the third missing 10-20 and 30 times. The main winning potential of this slot can be released during the free spins feature. The player should be lucky enough to pass through all levels (and to make all bears as wilds) and to get some multiplier wilds in combination. During usual spins - to get a mega winning is near to impossible.

Description of the slot machine

There is a cosy little house on the edge of the forest, and a rocky path can reach its doors. Bears peacefully gather berries and regale with honey. But this idyll will not go on very long. The little girl is just about to appear on the forest edge, and there remains only to envy the bear family. And ringing musical pieces accompanying the gameplay will lift your mood even more. The slot machine has great potential, which is realized during the bonus free games. You need to collect a maximum of scatter symbols in the process of free spins.
