Understanding Ted Slot Mechanics

Ted slot operates on a 5-reel, 3-row grid with 20 fixed paylines in the base game, expanding to 40 paylines during Ted Free Spins. The game uses a line bet multiplier of 0.10, meaning all paytable wins are multiplied by this value and then by your line bet amount.

The 95.80% RTP represents long-term theoretical return. Blueprint Gaming built this slot with medium-high volatility, balancing frequent small wins from the 6 random Ted Modifiers with substantial bonus potential reaching up to 250,000 coins or 250,000x your total bet.

Symbol Values and Winning Combinations

Wild symbols deliver the highest payouts at 500x for five of a kind, followed by Ted with Bong and the Woman character both paying 300x. The Ted logo appears super stacked, meaning it can fill entire reels for massive multi-line wins. All line wins must start from the leftmost reel and appear on consecutive reels.

Card symbols A and K pay 100x for five matches, while Q and J offer 50x. The Ted Light beer pack pays 200x for a full line. Only the highest win on each payline is paid, but wins across different lines are added together, and scatter bonus wins are added to line wins.

Thunder Buddies Bonus System

Landing three or more Thunder Buddies scatter symbols anywhere triggers the bonus wheel. The wheel determines which of five features you win: Wheel of Fortune Bonus, Bar Crawl Bonus, S Mart Free Spins, Ted Free Spins, or Ted Big Money Bonus.

Wheel of Fortune Bonus lets you pick Ted characters to reveal arrows, multiplier boosts, or spins. Arrows advance you toward the center where Ted Big Money Bonus awaits. Multiplier boosts increase values on the wheel. Landing on a multiplier value ends the feature with that multiplier of your total bet.

Bar Crawl Bonus presents a board game where you select bottles to move around collecting multipliers. Special positions trigger Cash Boost, Take Away Trail Run, Mings Mystery Win, Ted Big Money Bonus counters, or Arrested. Collect five Ted Big Money counters to enter the ultimate bonus.

Free Spins Mechanics

S Mart Free Spins awards 5 initial spins with Ted running on a conveyor belt. Wild symbols scatter across shelves behind the reels. When the belt stops, reels populate with corresponding wild positions creating guaranteed wins. Free spins cannot retrigger but play at triggering bet level.

Ted Free Spins uses an expanded 5x4 reel layout with up to 40 paylines. A bonus grid sits above the reels containing cash prizes, extra spins, and extra wilds. Special overlay symbols landing on reels award super shots in the grid. A marker sweeps left-to-right awarding prizes, with each sweep converting the last position to an advance arrow. Climbing to the grid top awards Ted Big Money Bonus after spins end.

Ted Big Money Bonus Finale

Ted Big Money Bonus displays Ted surrounded by a carousel of multiplier values with sale signs on both sides. The carousel spins and stops on a total bet multiplier. You then pick a sale sign revealing either RESPIN or COLLECT. Respin adds to your bonus win and spins again. Collect ends the feature awarding your accumulated multiplier.

Random Modifier Strategy

The 6 Ted Modifiers activate randomly during any base game spin. Lazer Gun Infectious Wilds creates multiple wild positions through bouncing laser mechanics. Beer Shuffle can trigger multiple consecutive reshuffles, each potentially improving your win until bubbles pop.

Psychedelic Colossal Spin combines three reels into one giant synchronized reel, guaranteeing matched symbols across those positions. TV Streak locks winning symbols and respins remaining positions until no further improvement occurs, similar to hold-and-respin mechanics.

Psychedelic Bonus Boost significantly increases scatter symbol count on the reels for that spin, dramatically improving your odds of triggering the Thunder Buddies wheel. This modifier can be the difference between a base game spin and entering the bonus selection.

Feature Gamble Mechanics

After winning any Thunder Buddies feature, you can gamble to climb the bonus ladder. Features rank from lowest to highest value: S Mart Free Spins, Bar Crawl Bonus, Wheel of Fortune Bonus, Ted Free Spins, with Ted Big Money Bonus at the top. Gambling spins the wheel again attempting to land on a higher feature.

Win and you advance with all lower features eliminated. Lose and you receive a Mystery Win Prize instead of your feature. The odds shown on the wheel do not necessarily reflect actual probability. Each gamble increases potential rewards but risks losing your current feature entirely.

Betting Strategy and Bankroll

Bet range spans 0.20 to 200.00 credits per spin with 13 bet levels. All 20 paylines are always active in base game. The malfunction rule voids all plays and pays. Maximum win caps at 250,000 coins or 250,000x total bet, whichever comes first.

Blueprint Gaming version 1.6.0.0_hotfix_1 includes autoplay functionality that disables when entering any bonus round, reaching loss limits, or winning progressive pots where applicable. Autoplay allows setting specific spin counts and automatically uses your selected stake.
