Ted Slot Review

The Ted slot game is based on the hit 2012 comedy movie of the same name. It was launched by Blueprint Gaming in 2017 and has quickly become one of its most popular titles thanks to its five bonuses and six modifiers, which have the potential to boost your winnings.

Blueprint Gaming is a UKGC-licensed game developer with a range of fan-favourite slots for UK players, like Fishin’ Frenzy and Eye of Horus, as well as many titles based on TV shows and movie franchises like The Flintstones: Rock Around The Pots.

Played on a traditional 5x3 reel grid with 20 fixed paylines, the Ted slot machine has plenty of exciting bonus features to keep players engaged.

Ted Slot Gameplay

The base game of Ted plays like a standard online slot. Simply land matching combinations of paying symbols and receive a payout that is a multiplier of your stake. What sets Ted apart and keeps the pace of gameplay engaging are the many bonus options and modifiers that add extra layers to the gameplay.

The slot has a pretty average betting range, with a minimum bet of £0.20 and a maximum stake of £200 per spin. However, in compliance with recent UKGC regulations, UK players will be limited to £2 per spin if they are 18-24, and £5 per spin if they are over 25.

Here’s an example of what you could expect to win for landing winning combinations with a £1 stake per spin:

Symbol	2 on a payline	3 on a payline	4 on a payline	5 on a payline
Queen / Jack	0.00	0.20	0.50	2.50
King / Ace	0.00	0.40	2.00	5.00
Crate of Ted Light	0.00	0.50	3.00	10.00
Hookah	0.00	0.50	3.00	10.00
Duck	0.00	1.00	4.00	15.00
Blonde woman	0.00	1.00	4.00	15.00
Ted logo	0.10	2.00	5.00	25.00
Ted Wild	0.10	2.00	5.00	25.00

The titular Ted sleeps on a sofa beneath the grid, surrounded by scrunched-up cans. In the background, the party seems to be raging on. During gameplay, Ted only wakes up to make a snarky comment or to add a modifier to the reels. He also gets activated when you trigger the Thunder Buddies Bonus to help determine which of the bonus features you’ll unlock.

While the lowest paying symbols aren’t particularly on theme, being the classic royals, the rest will be recognisable to those familiar with the movie.

In the middle range, there’s Ted’s favourite psychedelic apparatus and a crate of beer. Just above that, you’ll find an angry duck and a blonde woman. The top two highest-paying symbols are the Ted logo and the bear himself as the Wild, which substitutes for all symbols except the Thunder Buddies Bonus.

Graphics, Sounds and Vibes

As the Ted online slot has been based on the partially animated movie, you can expect high-quality graphics and super smooth animations. The party in the background is mostly blurred, so the player's attention can focus solely on the reels and occasional waking interactions with Ted.

As you spin the reels, a suave, jazzy tune plays, and occasionally the foul-mouthed bear makes a funny remark, making the slot feel more immersive and like you’re in the movie with him. The music picks up the pace in the bonus rounds, with a different track for each type of bonus that fits with its story.

Here’s what one of CasinoTopsOnline’s top games experts had to say about it:

Ted Slot on Mobile

This game has been fully optimised for all devices, so you can play the Ted slot just as smoothly on your mobile phone. However, when we loaded it up we were met with the below screen as the game is only available in landscape mode, offering an experience similar to the desktop version. The spin button sits to the right of the reels, while the paytable and bet size toggles are beneath the grid on the left side.

Here’s the opinion from one of the CasinoTopsOnline’s expert writers:

Lazer Gun Infectious Wilds

With this modifier, Ted pops up at the bottom of the grid and shoots his lazer gun at the reels, turning random symbols Wild to create more winning combinations.

Beer Shuffle

The Beer Shuffle modifier is triggered when you land seven or more of any of the symbols across the grid. Ted shakes a can and sprays it at the reels. The symbols are then shuffled three times, with a payout awarded after each shuffle if they land on paylines. This has the potential to significantly boost your winnings.

Psychedelic Colossal Spin

If Ted grants the Psychedelic Colossal Spin, the first three reels merge together to form one giant square that covers 3x3 squares on the grid. This gives players a higher chance of landing a winning combination.

TV Streak

During the TV Streak modifier, Ted stands at the bottom of the grid, pointing his remote at the reels. This locks certain symbols while the rest of the reels respin. At this point, matching symbols get locked, too. After a random number of spins, Ted stops spinning the reels and players receive their payout.

Psychedelic Bonus Boost

The Psychedelic Bonus Boost is awarded at random by Ted. This modifier increases the overall multiplier value of the next spin, boosting the player’s potential winnings. It also adds a random number of Thunder Buddies Boost symbols to the reels for more chances at triggering a bonus round.

Gamble Feature

Every time a player unlocks a Thunder Buddies Bonus, the reel spins to determine which bonus will be awarded. When it lands, the player is given a choice to collect the bonus or gamble it for a chance at a bigger bonus. If they select “Gamble”, another reel appears, which alternates between the bigger prize and a “Mystery Win” – a random cash prize.

Ted Free Spins

If a player lands the Ted Free Spins and chooses not to gamble them for the Ted Big Money Bonus, they will be transported to the bonus round for 10 free spins on a larger 5x4 reel grid. Every time the little red Ted symbol appears on the grid, players can add boosters to their spins with the prize pyramid. A prize is awarded at random, and players can work their way up the pyramid to the grand prize.

S-Mart Free Spins

If the spinning reel lands on the S-Mart Free Spins option, players are given the choice to collect them or gamble them for Ted Free Spins. If they choose to collect, they are taken to a grid above a conveyor belt where they can try to pick up Ted Wilds for a chance to land more winning combinations.

Wheel of Fortune

The Wheel of Fortune bonus is considered the smallest prize. Players can gamble it for a chance at unlocking the Bar Crawl Bonus or collect it and be taken to the wheel. To spin the wheel, players must pick one of the three Ted faces above the bear himself. These will either add multipliers or level-ups to the wheels, or allow you to start spinning. The wheels keep spinning, moving through the rings until a prize is won or you reach the Ted Big Money Bonus.

Here’s what one of CasinoTopsOnline’s reviewers thought about the Ted bonus features:

RTP and Volatility

Ted has an RTP of 95.80%, just shy of the 96% industry-standard benchmark, which is paired with medium volatility. This is something to keep in mind when planning your session budget.

Bet Sizes & Variance

The betting range of the Ted slot goes from a minimum of £0.20 per spin to a maximum of £200 per spin. For players residing in the UK, the maximum stake is capped at £2 for under-25s and £5 for those 25 and over as per updated UKGC regulations.

Jackpots & Best Wins

The Ted slot doesn’t feature any kind of jackpot, so the maximum win is capped at 5,000x your stake. According to Slot Tracker data, the highest recorded community win sits at 230x.

I got my first win of £0.50 on my second spin, thanks to the Wild symbol, but then nothing until my tenth. Wins were fairly frequent over my next 10 spins, but always less than I’d wagered. A couple of times, I came very close to unlocking a bonus but failed to land the third scatter. I then had a streak of dead spins until things started picking up again. Thanks to some well-placed Wilds, I won £2.40 on spin 34 and £2.70 on spin 36. I was lucky enough to finally land three Thunder Buddies Bonus symbols on spin 43 and was awarded 5 S-Mart Free Spins. I chose to collect them and won £32.50 in the bonus round, taking my total up to £47.80. Over my final few spins, I landed a couple of wins and my final total was £43.60, resulting in an overall loss of £6.40.
