Ted Pub Fruit is a Blueprint Gaming video slot themed around the popular 2012 movie, Ted. If you thought the smug, rude bear was annoying before, you would hate him even more after playing this game. With quotes from the movie, paired with a mountain of features, it can be all too easy to lose your cool and start swearing.

There are a whopping sixteen different bonuses available to players.

Ted Pub Fruit introduction, including RTP and variance

The title is played on a 5×3 playing field with 5 fixed paylines. If a combination of symbols appearing on the reels forms a line of three, four, or five matching symbols on one of the win lines, then the pay is awarded to you. Icons can also appear with a number, that is used to advance the trail.

The theoretical payout (RTP) for this slot is 96.57%, which is above the average. Ted Pub Fruit has low variance so you can expect lots of bonus features and very rare jackpot wins.

Gameplay and Pay Table

Symbols include cherries, lemons, oranges, plums, grapes, watermelons, a duck, Ted, and the movie logo. There are no special icons, as everything is awarded through the trail.

Without Wilds to complete wins, or Scatters to trigger any of the bonuses, gamblers will have to rely on getting lucky with the trail to hit the bonuses. The whole game is one giant risk/reward gamble. All we can tell you is to go with your gut and hope you pick right.

Bonus Features

Collecting numbers is essential, as it is the only way to get any special features. Getting four grants regular bonuses, while eight grants the SuperBoard.

Regular bonuses include:

• Stopper – Highlights different locations on the reels, and is awarded to the player wherever it lands
• Boost – increases the player’s trail ranking
• Win Spin – a winning spin is rewarded
• Re-spin – a re-spin is awarded
• Shot Climb – three chances to increase the trail ladder. You need to get above eight in three goes to advance
• Add Again – Adds all the numbers on the reels currently, and asks players to repeat the bonus.

Climbing above eight grants the Super Board bonuses. You can do several things here. A number will be rolled each time, and you can bet if it will be bigger or smaller. If you guess correctly, the feature currently highlighted on the board is played again. Guess wrong, and you lose.

Alternatively, you can spin to get a new number. This moves you to a different bonus on the trail. At any point, you can choose to collect the cash prize or special features you have earned so far. If you get busted, you could lose it all.

CasinoWizard’s verdict: 3 out of 5 stars

The sheer amount of bonuses you can get from playing this title is insane. Admittedly, most are not massive gameplay changes, but they can make a world of difference under the right circumstances. If you are the type of gambler who likes to chase special features, you will fall in love with this slot.

Ted Pub Fruit’s RTP is above the average compared to other games released by the same developer. The physical machine look does not particularly draw us in, but given their efforts to try and emulate AWP’s, we can understand why they choose this appearance.

The high volatility will turn off newer players, and the sheer amount of things to keep track of will seal the nail in that coffin. If you plan on trying it out, do not be surprised if you feel somewhat lost in your first ten to fifteen minutes. For a 1,000x jackpot, however, it may be worth the trouble.
