White Rabbit Megaways slot (Big Time Gaming)

White Rabbit is a quintessential Megaways slot by Big Time Gaming.

It all points in one direction:  the possibility of massively big payouts – another one of those Big Time Gaming attributes.

White Rabbit has even more. This slot, which has a passing resemblance to Alice in Wonderland, has a unique ”Buy a Bonus” option.

Or rather, we should say unique for a Big Time Gaming slot, because we did see the Buy a Bonus option earlier in the Wonder Woman slot by Bally.

How does the White Rabbit slot work?

White Rabbit has a varying reel structure per spin that results in every rotation ending up with several different ways to win.

This can lead to reasonable high payouts in the primary game, but in reality, you will end up with many non-winning spins.

Fortunately, the little caterpillar comes to your aid every once in a while. Upon waking up, all sleepy-like, he blows up to 4 extra wilds onto the screen with multipliers of 2x or even 3 x.

The minimum bet is $€ 0.30 per spin, all the way up to $€ 100 per spin

Symbols and payouts

Some symbols are stacked and will then appear in the shape of a teapot, a purple cat, a top hat or a dodo.

The somewhat angry looking red princess pays out the most: 25 x your bet if you manage to spin 5 of them.

The gemstones and the cat will net you between 2 x and 5 x your total bet, whereas all other symbols are good for between 0.6 x and 1.9 x  your bet.

What is the payout rate and the variance of White Rabbit?

The payout rate of White Rabbit is very impressive at 97.33%.

The variance leans toward the high side.

This slot will predominantly appeal to the serious gambler.

This is Big Time Gaming’s target audience.

We have already witnessed this with other popular Megaways slots such as Bonanza and Starquest.

The bonus round of White Rabbit

The bonus round can be activated in two ways.

The first one is the conventional way: spinning 3 scattered White Rabbit symbols on the middle reels in the primary game.

Should you not have the patience for this, you can also opt to buy the bonus round in one go.

You are going to stick your hand quite far into your pocket though.

This purchase will put you back 100 x your bet.

The buying option is already available when you are playing with the minimum $€ 0.30, which translates into a $€ 30 cost.

Should you want to exercise this option while playing at the maximum $€ 20 bet level, you are putting down a cool $€ 2000 for said option.

There is a small advantage to be had.

When playing the primary game, if a coin drops, the price of the buy a bonus option is reduced by a small amount.

Free spins with expanding reels

At the start of the bonus, you have 15 free spins.

In the course of these free spins, 2 symbols play a vital part:

• The wild symbol replaces all symbols except the cupcakes
• The cupcakes make the reels expand
• When a reel reaches a height of 12 symbols, a retrigger is activated

The payouts in this bonus round can be handsomely rewarding, but that largely depends on the fact that you have to be able to trigger.

The buy a bonus option comes at a high cost and as such consists of high risk.

We advise you not to avail yourself of this option too often, no matter how attractive it seems to be able to activate the bonus immediately.

In any event, do not use the buy a bonus to try to recoup losses.

That is just asking for trouble.

Our verdict on the White Rabbit slot

White Rabbit is a true Big Time Gaming title, meaning it has to suit your style if you love slots such as Danger!

High Voltage and Bonanza, you will most likely also go nuts over White Rabbit.

If your preference goes to more simple slots with a lower number of paylines, then we feel that the chances are high that you will probably ignore White Rabbit altogether.

The buy a bonus option in White Rabbit is definitely interesting, but not without danger.

It will put you back 100 x your bet, even at the minimum bet that adds up quickly.

3.5 out of 5 stars.
