Canadian-themed slots are hard to come by. Amidst all of the American, British, and Asian-themed slot games, there don’t seem to be many online slots in Canada giving tribute to the Great White North. What, nobody wanted to turn Mounties into slot mascots? A game where all of the reels show the different donuts from Tim Hortons? Actually, now that I’m reading it back, these both sound like huge copyright issues. Never mind. (Unless Tims and the RCMP are down to collab. In which case, DM me, let’s talk.)
Nevertheless, I was able to track down five online slots with Canadian undertones.
Break Away
Of course, this wouldn’t be a list of Canadian-themed slots without a hockey slot. Break Away speaks to any online gambler who is also a hockey fan. Two teams battle it out on the ice, featuring icons like the red player, a white player, the ref, skates, a goalie mask, and the most satisfying part of any hockey game, the Zamboni. No? Just I think that?
The wild card (not pictured) is covered in ice and shatters when it comes into play. It’s stacked on the second through fourth reels, which bodes well for the player. If you’re lucky enough to land on a fiery puck, you can win a casino bonus of up to 25 free spins with multipliers.
Break Away has an RTP (return to player) rate of 96.42%, so you may find yourself winning regularly, even if they’re just small wins. The minimum bet is $0.50 and the maximum is $50, so this game is great for gamblers who sit between low- and high-rollers.
Break Away Deluxe
After Break Away came Break Away Deluxe, the new-and-improved hockey slot. It’s similar to the original, with prizes to be won like multipliers and a top prize of 140,000 coins. The voiceover transports you to the arena and makes it feel as though you’re at a hockey game.
This game features rolling reels, which give you a second chance at winning. Once you match symbols, they will disappear and new ones will drop, potentially allowing you to keep winning until you run out of matched symbols.
The RTP is 96% when playing 18, 36, or 68 lines, and increases slightly to 96.88% when you play 88 lines. Minimum and maximum wagers differ from the original game, with the smallest bet being $0.01 per line to $0.50 per line (for a maximum bet of $44).
Alaskan Fishing
Okay, hear me out. I know Alaska is literally in the title, but take a look at the imagery here: fishing rods, boats, brown bears, fish, and eagles. Doesn’t that sound like the imagery of a good old-fashioned Canadian camping trip? Like, one where you tie your food up in the trees away from the bears and cook fresh fish over the fire for dinner?
This five-reel slot has 243 ways to win, including 15 free spins with doubled wins and other multipliers if you spin and land on three or more tackle boxes. If the Fisherman appears on reels one and five at the same time, you’ll enter the Fly Fishing bonus game where you’ll be able to choose five spots that contain prizes. The RTP is average at 96%, and the maximum bet is $15, making this a great choice for lower-stakes players.
So, grab your tackle box and your trusty fishing rod and head out for an Alaskan Canadian fishing trip!
Silver Fang
Yeah, I know this one seems like a stretch, but Canada actually supports the second largest gray wolf population in the world, so this one actually does work. Besides, who doesn’t want to play a game featuring a big, wild puppy and a cute antlered friend? (I saw some folks calling that majestic antlered animal a deer. It looks more like an elk to me, but hey, I’m no nature expert.) Silver Fang isn’t anything super fancy, but it’s a great option for casual slots players who want to play for fun. It is a low-limit slot game so if you’re a high-roller, this isn’t the game for you.
If you get three or more paw print symbols, you’ll receive 15 free spins with a 5x multiplier. The wild icon of a howling wolf becomes stacked during free spins for even more winning opportunities. The RTP is 96.30% and betting amounts range from $0.01 to $25. Players say this game is more enjoyable as a mobile casino than on a desktop, so keep this in mind if you choose to play.
If we’ve piqued your interest in patriotic gambling, all of the above four games can be played at All Slots Casino.
Wild Gambler 2: Arctic Adventure
Parts of Canada are in The Arctic (mainly the Northwest Territories, Yukon, and Nunavut) so this is probably as close to a Canadian name as we’ll get. Complete with loveable Canadian wildlife, Wild Gambler 2 is simple and enjoyable. Match three or more scatter symbols to receive free spins, and try your luck at winning some multipliers and other bonuses as well. To increase your chances of winning, try the Lock & Spin feature to lock your wild cards in place for your next spin.
With an RTP of 95.99% and a minimum bet of $0.01, Wild Gambler 2 is a great choice for low- to mid-stakes players.
This game is available to play at Bet365.
