Aristocrat has never been afraid to take a risk with a slot machine theme, which is evident in many ways when reviewing its Yardbirds game.
Slot machine bonus win on another fun game. Beverly Hillbillies. This is a max bet on a Millionaire Mile bonus (the only bonus worth getting) and a great bonus win followed by a progressive win!
Can you imagine any other company in this space developing an entire game based on a chicken theme? As silly as this sounds, innovation has been and probably always will be priority number one at Aristocrat. In other words, the company doesn’t want to be the same as the competition. It wants to be better.
The farm theme, cartoon inspired graphics, and laid back approach attracts players from all walks of life. When you combine this with a 3×3 configuration, you also have a machine that is easy to understand and play.
Players Love Animals
As a slots player, you’ve probably come across a variety of animal inspired games. For example, Turtle Treasure has a lot to offer.
With Yardbirds, there are animals everywhere. It doesn’t matter where the reels land or how much you’ve wagered, there’s no escaping the fact that you’ll feel like you’re on a farm as you play.
Some of the reel symbols include a fox, rooster, bird seed, weather vane, and of course, chickens.
Speaking of reel symbols, keep your eyes peeled for the Free Spins icon. Just as the name implies, this is the one to look for if you have hopes of playing on the house. Three of these are good enough for a group of free spins.
A Farm Full of Features
A Yardbirds slot machine would not be very exciting if you were stuck in base gameplay the entire time. Fortunately, you don’t have to concern yourself with this.
The machine is full of extra features, all of which are designed to improve your experience and help you win more money, more often.
There are three distinct bonus features:
- Foxy Free Spin Bonus. You never want to see a fox roaming around a farm, but in this game there’s nothing wrong with cozying up to this creature. When you collect three Free Spin symbols, this bonus round is where you’ll end up. As the reels spin, remember that the fox symbol acts as a wild. The more of these you see the greater chance you have of winning.
- Chicken and Egg Bonus. If you collect three or more bonus symbols, you’re taken to this feature. It’s you vs. the fox during this game, with each of you alternating in choosing an egg. Each egg reveals your winnings, so cross your fingers and hope for the best.
- Mystery Hatch Bonus. There’s nothing special about this bonus game, but the opportunity to have fun and add money to your account should be enough to keep a smile on your face.
You won’t spend all your time in one of these three bonus games, but the opportunity is there. If you play long enough, it’s likely that you’ll get your chance to experience each one.
Note: gaining access to a bonus feature is the hard part. Once you’re there, winning is second nature.
Reasons to Play a Yardbirds Slot Machine
The SlotsJack team loves to have a good time. While every game has the opportunity to provide thrills, it’s often the theme that makes or breaks your experience.
If fun is on your mind, Yardbirds will never disappoint. This is due in large part to the farm based theme with a cartoon twist.
In addition to the theme itself, there are a few other reasons to get involved:
- A classic 3×3 configuration that is simple to learn.
- The graphics and animation are well above average.
- Access to three of the best bonus features that Aristocrat has to offer.
Are these the types of things you enjoy in a slot machine? If so, you can get your fill by playing Yardbirds.
Have a Good Time
It’s hard to imagine that Aristocrat was able to pull off a theme like this. Sure, Angry Birds was a big hit, but the slot industry is a different beast entirely.
It may not be the top game on the casino floor. It may not even be one that you consider at first. Even so, Yardbirds has a way of attracting players.
Just the same as Rhino Charge, you may not expect much from this game. But once you spin the reels, experience the bonus features, and win a few bucks, everything begins to change. It’s definitely a game that deserves a look if the opportunity arises.
WE SEE IT ALL on the Smokin' Hot Stuff Wicked Wheel slot machine by Everi!
Smokin' Hot Stuff Wicked Wheel is a fun game where you win by landing the same symbol on 3 or more adjacent reels from left to right. To help, wild symbols may land on reels 2, 3, and 4 and when they do, they each reveal a random multiplier of 2x, 3x, or 4x giving you the potential for up to a 64x total multiplier on your win!
The Progressive Pick Bonus is randomly triggered whenever a wild symbol lands and the more you bet, the better chance you have to trigger this feature. Note that the cauldron animations are for display purposes only and have no effect on the triggering of the bonus itself. Once triggered, you pick coins until you match 3. You can also find up to 3 pitchforks and for each you find, the lowest Progressive is eliminated which can really make for some interesting bonuses!
The Wicked Wheel Bonus is triggered by landing bonus symbols on reels 3, 4, and 5 for one wheel spin where you can win between 5 and 375x your total bet or one of three Progressives, which will be randomly placed on the wheel upon trigger. Additionally, up to 12 multipliers will be applied to non-Progressive credit slices, consisting of 2x, 3x, 5x, and 10x. You get one spin although randomly, the wheel may nudge to an increased value.
It's worthwhile to note that betting up increases your chances of winning a Progressive in either the Progressive Pick Bonus or the Wicked Wheel Bonus, Enjoy!
Yardbirds Slot Strategy

Hi Tim, I keep watching this one video and have a strategy on playing the picks on the progressive game, yesterday I was down to three picks. Rather than going with what I looked at I went opposite! Paid off nicely, we only have four of these types of machines and I only play when I come across one that has a full pot! Love your videos, once again great job explaining!

Played this for the first time today because I have seen so many of you having fun with it on your channels. I loved it! I only was betting 120 and somehow got almost a full screen of double peppers missing only top left and lower right, for 486.00, and almost fell out of my chair! Then the bonus wheel kept coming, and I cashed out at 650.00. I felt bad for the person who had been playing before me. I sat at the only other one next to her and the machine would not recognize my card. She said 'Here try this one', as she cashed out and walked away. I enjoy your videos and appreciate how you explain the games. Thanks for being awesome!

My fiancé and I made about 1400 in 2 days with many different machines. In different casinos on this game. There’s definitely a strategy to win big and save cash

Hi Tim, my local casino recently added this game. I played it both yesterday and today, and I must say I love the graphics and Donna Summer's Hot Stuff playing. I didn't have too much luck but it is my 'new favorite' slot game of the moment. Keep up the great job ...your videos are fun to watch and you are fun to listen to. Thank you and Good Luck!
Ana Garcia

Why do you always pick the same on every game. Its always corners, so annoying!

Thinking Evri is trying to fool people by showing the placements of progressives and pitchforks after you’ve won your progressive. Im gonna say it’s still predetermined.
Loren Staab
One of those games I keep come back to waiting for the big win :-)
Katherine Harrison
Tim, the thing I've always loved about your videos is that they really educate the slot goer..... your descriptions are absolutely accurate on gameplay if people pay attention they're certain to learn from your losses and your successes.....
Ziyu Lu
Aren't you better off betting minimum since a minimum bet can win the progressive?
G Money Slot Machine Videos
Sure was a battle and it was fun seeing lots of bonuses. It’s tough on which videos I prefer because I enjoy all the vids including these longer ones because it means we see more of you play. Of course big quick wins are great too. I love the way the picking bonus works with pitchforks getting rid of the smallest progressives! Anyway nice long fun and profitable session Tim I love it!
Amy Butler
I wonder if the picking bonus for progressives is predetermined? It shows the other options when complete.
