Oktoberfest will get over on Sunday, but you can continue the festivities on the reels. Many online casino software providers have released Oktoberfest themed slot games, but none is as good as Steinfest from Microgaming. This video slot captures the essence of the Bavarian festival in its dimensions of beer, music and food.

The highest payouts are given by the two serving girls. One carries steins of beer, while the other carries mugs. The girls also payout when appearing in mixed combinations. The music is provided by the accordion, drum and tuba. The usual playing card symbols are replaced by food popular during Oktoberfest and include turkey, ham, bratwurst, brat dog and pretzel. The Steinfest logo is the wild symbol. It does not offer any payouts but appears stacked on the reels. The pub sign is the scatter symbol and the stein is the bonus symbol. The graphics in Microgaming slots are always good, but in Steinfest the software provider has outdone itself.

Three or more Stein bonus symbols appearing scattered anywhere on the reels activate the Beer Chug Bonus Feature game. You will have to choose beer drinking patrons from those that are displayed on the second screen. The number of Stein symbols that trigger this feature indicates how many patrons you get to choose. Each choice of yours reveals random bonus prize amounts. You win the total of all the bonuses revealed in the feature. After you have chosen your last patron from your allotted number, you may be asked to choose another one.

Three or more pub sign scatter symbols scattered anywhere on the reels award scatter payouts and also activate the free spins bonus round. You will initially be awarded ten free spins in which all payouts are doubled. If three or more scatter symbols again appear on the reels during this feature, then you will be awarded another ten free spins. This can be repeated an infinite number of times.

Steinfest is a 9 paylines video slot. You can wager up to 10 coins per payline, with the coin size varying between 0.01 and 0.25 credits. The maximum payout in the base game is 45,000 credits and in the free spins bonus is 90,000 credits. The Beer Chug bonus can pay a maximum of 10,800 coins. Steinfest is live at all Microgaming online casinos such as All Slots, Platinum Play and Royal Vegas, where you can play the game for free as well as for real money.
