A squirrel hoards acorns to see it through the winter. Have you accumulated your kitty for the festive season spending? If not, you could try spinning Cabin Fever slot machine at your favorite Microgaming online casino, such as Royal Vegas, All Slots and Lucky Nugget. Cabin Fever has moderately high variance and a maximum total bet that will attract high rollers.

Despite its name, Cabin Fever has a winter theme, which also gives it a flavor of the season. One set of symbols depict members of the bear family living in the cabin. Papa bear uses two techniques to beat the cold. He is in a hot bath and is gulping down ale to warm his innards. Mama bear is listening to hot rumors on the phone and maybe spreading some herself. The siblings are raising the temperature by having a spat. Baby bear is hollering for his food. The other set of symbols include the usual fruits from the classic slot machines. These retro symbols have a difference. They are packed with ice and give the winter touch.

There are three special symbols in Cabin Fever video slot. The wild logo is crafted in ice. As the wild symbol it substitutes for all symbols except the scatter and the trigger symbols. It also doubles payouts when substituting for other symbols in winning combinations. The wild logo awards line payouts when two or more are aligned from left to right on active paylines. The top line payout for five symbols is a whopping 5,000 coins. The next highest five of a king payout for papa bear is only 300 coins. This is indicative of the high variance in this slot game. The squirrel with the acorns is the scatter symbol. It awards scatter payouts that are multiplied by the total bet.

The trigger symbol for the free spins feature is the sun. It appears to be a bit under the weather in the winter cold and needs a woolen scarf for protection. When the sun appears scattered at the same time on reels 1 and 5, the feature is triggered. You are awarded 20 free spins at doubled payouts. A simpler version of the Microgaming gamble feature is available in Cabin Fever online slot game. After each winning spin you can stake the payout in a double or nothing gamble game. If you guess the color of the next card correctly then you double the payout, otherwise you lose it all.
