Owl Eyes is an online slot game by software manufacturer NextGen Gaming. It aims for a kind of enchanted vibe, with the game taking place at night in some magical woods. There’s a light glow visible in the distance, and you can see the silhouettes of thick tree trunks crowding it. On either side of the reels there are small fireflies hovering in mid-air, plus, the chiming soundtrack helps emphasize the whole atmosphere so you may want to keep your sound on. The graphics, however, aren’t all too sophisticated and are actually pretty basic. They feature the lower value playing card icons with leaves growing from them, and as well as these we have some wildlife like the owl and badger.
Now as for the game’s structure, it features a grid of 5 reels and 4 rows instead of the more conventional 3. All of this comes with a total of 50 active paylines which are flexible, which means you will have the opportunity to play with a lesser number of them, if you so choose. As a matter of fact, the minimum amount you will be able to play with is just a single payline. The fairly large betting range, therefore, starts at a minimum stake of only 1p per spin while the maximum possible wager amount will set you back some £500 per spin.
Where to Play
Special Features
Wild Owl Eyes
Look out for the Owl symbol appearing only on the middle reels 2, 3 and 4. It doesn’t offer any payouts of its own, but it acts as the game’s Wild symbol, and as such, it had the capacity to substitute for any of the regular symbols on the reels. Thus, with its help you can complete winning combinations and pocket more wins. Furthermore, the Wild can also appear in full reel stacks, which makes for even better winning opportunities. However, there is one symbol that the Wild will not be able to replace and that is the game’s Scatter icon.
Full Moon Scatter
The Scatter, unlike its Wild counterpart, can appear on any of the five reels, in any position and at any point during gameplay. It isn’t particularly lucrative, but it’s what you need in order to gain access to the Freespins Feature, which is also this title’s single main attraction.
You can trigger it by landing at least 3 Scatters anywhere in view at the same time, and this will reward you with 5 free spins. Moreover, all throughout the bonus round players get to benefit from extra Wild stacks. In addition, you can retrigger this feature and receive an extra 5 free spins on top.

Verdict
Gameplay in Owl Eyes is extremely basic, there’s no question about it. You only have the one special feature to entertain you, and that one isn’t all too generous either. Plus, the graphics aren’t the best we’ve seen from NextGen.
