Explore Microgaming gamesSnow Honeys is a historical five-reel Microgaming slot set at a ski resort. The archived edition shown below has 20 selectable paylines and two different special symbols: a ski-resort scatter and an ice-castle bonus symbol. It has no wild substitute. This guide describes the older game documented by our sister site World Casino Directory; it does not confirm that a casino currently offers this edition.

Reading the reel screen and stake
The base-game image shows five reels with three visible positions on each. Below them, the selected settings are 20 lines, ten coins per line and a 0.01 coin denomination. The bet meter shows 200 coins: 20 multiplied by ten. Multiplying those 200 coins by 0.01 gives a total stake of 2.00 account units. The screenshot does not identify those units as dollars, euros or pounds.
That is an example of the pictured setting, not a verified current minimum or maximum bet. Changing the denomination or coins per line changes the money at risk. The source page’s introductory reference to 25 lines conflicts with its own rules panel and the game’s visible 20-line control; this guide follows the pictured edition.
Two special symbols, two features
The ski-resort sign is associated with free spins. The ice castle marked Bonus is associated with Hide and Seek. These are not interchangeable triggers, and a scatter label does not mean its feature can necessarily start from symbols anywhere on the reels.
The archived Hide and Seek help panel explicitly requires three, four or five adjacent bonus symbols. It also says that Hide and Seek cannot start during free spins. The bonus awards are added to payline wins.
Verified bonus-scatter payouts
The help screen gives the following awards in multiples of the total bet. They are scatter payouts in addition to the Hide and Seek feature, rather than a promise about how much the entire feature will pay.
| Bonus symbols | Displayed scatter award | Example at a 2.00 total stake |
|---|---|---|
| Three | 2 times total bet | 4.00 account units |
| Four | 10 times total bet | 20.00 account units |
| Five | 100 times total bet | 200.00 account units |
For example, the three-symbol award at a 2.00 total stake is 2 multiplied by 2.00, or 4.00. Before any separate line or bonus awards, subtracting the original 2.00 stake gives a net gain of 2.00. This is worked arithmetic, not a recorded winning spin.
The small print also says that prizes revealed inside the bonus have already been multiplied by the total bet. Do not multiply those displayed prizes by the stake a second time. The panel’s 20,000-coin headline is expressed in coins, not currency, and should not be treated as a guaranteed return or a verified maximum for every later version.
Free spins and Hide and Seek
World Casino Directory’s historical description maps three adjacent ski-resort signs to 20 free spins at a three-times multiplier, four to 25 spins at four times, and five to 30 spins at five times. This mapping comes from the archived description; the pictured help panel above documents the other feature. Confirm the free-spin panel in the exact playable edition before relying on that mapping.
In Hide and Seek, the archived description has the player reveal prizes at the castle’s windows by throwing snowballs. The screenshot establishes the trigger and payout units, but it does not establish that a particular window choice offers a better expected result. A bonus round can return less than a player’s earlier spending.
Edition and evidence limits
The screenshots establish a historical interface, not current availability or operator limits. We have omitted the previous review’s full ordinary-symbol paytable because the available screenshot does not verify those entries and their units. No current RTP is asserted here. Consult the actual game’s help, denomination and operator settings if it is offered.
Snow Honeys questions
Does Snow Honeys have 20 or 25 paylines?
The pictured edition shows 20 selected lines, matching the source’s rules panel. The contradictory 25-line sentence is not used for this edition.
Is the ice castle a wild?
No. It is the bonus symbol for Hide and Seek. The historical edition is listed without wild symbols.
Can three bonus symbols anywhere trigger Hide and Seek?
The pictured help requires adjacent bonus symbols. Do not replace that condition with an anywhere-on-the-reels rule.
Can Hide and Seek start during free spins?
No. The archived help panel explicitly excludes this.
Does the five-castle award multiply the line bet?
No. Its displayed 100-times multiplier applies to the total bet. At a 2.00 total stake the scatter award is 200.00 account units.
Should a revealed bonus prize be multiplied by the stake again?
No. The help says prizes shown during the feature have already been multiplied by the total bet.
