The new game is per today’s standard in HTML5 format and Netent has given it some crisp and rich graphics with seamless animations. Set in the front of a lake pond with sea flowers, frogs and humming bees flying through the screen the slot is certainly appealing to the eye. However, that background music played with a tuba and the occasional frog ribbit will not be to everyone’s taste, I muted it after 30 seconds.

Scruffy Duck™ is a 5-reel, 3-row, 25-fixed line video slot with Free Spins, choice of four “in-feature” Wild features and expanding Wilds in base game and Free Spins. Bet sizes are from €/$/£ 0.25 – 250 with the highest 5OAK paying 16.6x and the lowest 1.6x stake. RTP is stated with 96.38% for this probably medium variance slot in HTML5 format that will be available for play on Desktop, Mobile and Tablet.

Low paying symbols are the traditional J’s to A’s held in broken egg shells and high paying symbols are what look like baby duck, big brother duck, mummy duck and daddy duck in ascending value order. Scatters appearing on reel 3, 4 and 5 only are the words “Free Spins” and Wild is the Scruffy Duck which will expand into a swan princess when completing a winning combination. Setting bet level, coin value and auto spin is clear and crisp although yet again Netent opted for fixed pay lines, as to why is still a mystery to me.
