Bear Buzz Slot by Playtech

Colored honey jars land on the reels carrying cash values - pink, purple, green, yellow - and each one quietly feeds into its matching Special Prize pot above the grid. Pink jars push the Major prize up by 0.1x per landing, starting at 100x and capping at 250x. Yellow jars raise the Mega by 0.25x per hit, from 200x up to 500x. These values persist across spins, building until someone wins them through the Golden Hive pick bonus, which resets that tier back to its starting value. The pick bonus can fire after any spin where a cash symbol lands, or at the end of the respin round - you choose hives until three matching jar colors appear, and whatever that tier has accumulated is what you collect.

The bear Wild only shows up in one spot: reel 3, row 2, dead center of a highlighted Hot Zone. When it lands there, it scoops up every cash value currently visible on the grid. Land a Bonus symbol on the same spin as the Wild and you trigger Bear Buzz Respins - 3 respins with cash prizes locked in place, and every new cash symbol or 1 UP symbol resets the counter back to 3. The 1 UP symbols push a win multiplier up by 1 each time, maxing at 10x, and that multiplier applies to all cash values collected during the round. Fill every position on the grid and you hit the fixed 5,000x Grand. At 20x your bet, the buy bonus skips straight into the respins, and you can pick your starting multiplier from 10 levels - so buying in at 5x or 8x means those cash values get scaled immediately rather than building from 1x.

Bright, saturated greens everywhere. A sunlit forest meadow wraps around the grid, with bees drifting between wildflowers. The bear itself is chunky and cartoonish, clutching an armful of colored jars. Premium symbols are strawberries, flower bouquets, honey pots, and honeycombs, all rendered in rounded, toy-like shapes. Card symbols from 9 through A sit in teal with a vine-like serif treatment. The jackpot tiers line up above the reels in their matching colors - green Mini, purple Minor, pink Major, yellow Mega, and a honeycomb-bordered Grand at center.

An X symbol acts as a batch multiplier for cash values when it lands during base play, multiplying everything on screen by your current win multiplier in one shot. But it can't appear on the same spin as a Bonus symbol, so the game keeps its two escalation paths - instant cash collection and respin entry - separate by design.
