Well butter my biscuits, ya'll be riding the gravy train with biscuit wheels when you get a look at Texas Ted’s black gold. We always say that everything is bigger in Texas, and that includes a possible 945x Big Oil Bonus in the search for a gusher. Before you know it, you’ll be as rich as a Texan oil tycoon.

How to play Texas Tea

If the phrase “never judge a book by its cover” had to be applied to one of our online slot games, it would have to be this game - Texas Tea. Upon starting this modest 5 reel, 3 row and 9 payline online slot machine, many of my colleagues ran to the hills when they came face-to-face with its crude, maybe slightly old fashioned graphics… but their loss, is our gain.

Underlying this simple and cartoonish exterior, is a slot mechanic with some outrageous winning possibilities!
Ok, so you may be asking, what exactly is Texas Tea? Well it’s the slang name used in the great state of Texas for crude oil, and originally made famous by the 1960s television show, the Beverley Hillbillies. Most of us will most probably recognise the more popular term, Black Gold.

Created by IGT, this online casino slot game is inspired by the oil fields of Texas and various items that symbolise the state such as, Cadillacs, longhorn bulls, cacti and state flowers and not forgetting the games main protagonists, Texas Ted and his armadillo sidekick.

Your main objective though, is to strike it rich by discovering black gold… or more aptly, Texas Tea. If you want to get your hands on a share of the oil fortune, the minimum bet per spin is £0.01, or for the big bucks, the max spin is £30.

Texas Tea features

It’s a dirty job but someone has to do it.

Texas Tea’s bonus features revolve around finding oil. The first is the dividend bonus in which Texas Ted writes a big fat cheque up to 100x times your original bet. Admittedly, there’s nothing quite as satisfying as a cheque (even if it’s a cartoon one) that gets credited directly into your balance.

Texas Tea also has the Big Oil bonus feature, a colourful map of Texas displaying 8 different regions, this is when you get to drill for oil and watch the oil derricks spout the ‘texas tea’. Each region has different amounts of oil, and the more oil you find, the bigger the prizes. It’s during this bonus round that you can win up to 945x times your original bet!

Texas Tea Big Oil Bonus

If we’re talking about a specific feature, we have to mention the Big Oil Bonus again.

I’ll be honest, I’ve often dreamt about discovering a vast hidden oil reserve, but who knew it would be inside a computer?

Spin the reels and collect 3 or more oil derrick scatters to activate the Bonus feature. After a few animations a new screen is revealed displaying the map of Texas, divided into 8 separate regions. The number of oil derricks won will determine how many chances you have to strike it big on the map.

Once you’ve picked your regions, oil spurts out from the derricks you’ve placed and the bonus credits increase. The intervals at which the oil spurts from the different regions selected will be varied, increasing your bonus multiplier. Your extra credits will be transferred to your total win and the normal game will resume once the bonus round is over.

Texas Tea in-game bonus features

Bonus features are the best way to increase your cash payout and Texas Tea includes two bonus games, the Big Oil Bonus and the Oil Dividend Bonus. These bonus features are triggered when the corresponding scatter symbol appears a specific number of times on the reels.

Oil Dividend Bonus

Triggered by a scatter win of 3 or more Texas Ted symbols. Players are rewarded with a cash prize payout based upon bet per line and how many scatter symbols were revealed. 3 scatter symbols pay 3x, 8x, 15x or a max of 25x the total line bet. 4 scatter symbols pay 8x, 10x, 25x, 40x or a max of 50x the total line bet. 5 scatter symbols pay 20x, 30x, 50x, 75x or a max of 100x the total line bet.

Big Oil Bonus

Triggered by a payline win or 3 or more oil derrick symbols. The number of derricks in the bonus round is equal to the number of triggered symbols. 3 oil derrick symbols pay between 5 and 100 per oil derrick. 4 oil derrick symbols pay between 5 and 200 per oil derrick. 5 oil derrick symbols pay between 5 and 495 per oil derrick.

Final Conclusions

Don’t let Texas Tea’s simple and cartoonish looks scare you away. The game is certainly no slot Picasso, but underneath, there’s a well-executed and entertaining game just waiting to be loved. The base game itself is pretty standard with fun colourful symbols and a potential win of up to 10,000 credits. But the real fun and rewards come in the bonus games. So, whether you have ever been to Texas or not, Texas Tea is a lot of fun to play.
