About Bee Keeper
Bee Keeper was released on 11 September 2025. Like Jumbo Safari, it is built by Reel Kingdom and distributed by Pragmatic Play — SlotCatalog and Big Win Board both credit Reel Kingdom, while the official page publishes it under the Pragmatic brand.
The grid is 5×3 with only 10 paylines, not 20 as our database claimed. Ten lines is few at this level, and it shows: SlotCatalog measures a hit frequency of one spin in 9.02, markedly drier than the average for the studio's 5×3 games.
The base game is short on features. Wilds substitute for regular symbols, and the official page puts base game potential at 200x. The highest-paying symbol is the beehive at 200x, followed by the honey spoon at 100x, according to SlotCatalog.
Everything happens in the free spins. Three, four or five scatters award 10, 15 or 20 spins respectively. During that phase, the mechanism changes character: money symbols — the honey pots — carry values from 2x up to 2,000x the stake according to Big Win Board, and every wild that lands collects the value of all money symbols visible on screen. A spin is therefore worth not what it lines up, but what the wild manages to gather.
The progression comes from the honeypots. One wild in four triggers a pot, and each pot improves the feature in two ways at once. The first awards 10 extra spins and a x2 multiplier. The second adds 10 spins and lifts the multiplier to x3. The third gives 20 spins and takes the multiplier to x20. The official page specifies that this retrigger can happen a maximum of three times.
A session carried to the third pot therefore totals up to 60 free spins, the last twenty of which play out with a twentyfold multiplier applied to money symbol collections. Structurally, that is the only route to the game's big wins.
The RTP is 96.53% according to SlotCatalog, Big Win Board and AskGamblers, meaning £3.47 of house margin per £100 staked. Pragmatic Play's official page, for its part, shows 96.51%. We flag the contradiction rather than settling it: two hundredths of a point will not change any session, but the discrepancy originates with the studio itself. Two downgraded builds exist, at 95.53% and 94.53%. In the lowest, house margin rises to £5.47 per £100 staked, 58% more for a game identical on screen.
Stakes run from £0.05 to £100 per spin according to SlotCatalog; Big Win Board puts the ceiling at £125. The maximum win is 2,100x, which is £105 at minimum stake, £2,100 at £1 and £210,000 at £100. SlotCatalog and Big Win Board give odds of 1 spin in 698,958, markedly more reachable than on most of the studio's very high ceiling titles.
The internal consistency of these figures is worth noting: a single money symbol can be worth up to 2,000x, when the game's ceiling is 2,100x. The maximum win therefore corresponds in practice to collecting one enormous pot, rather than to patient accumulation.
Placed within the catalogue, that ceiling is low. The median across the 634 Pragmatic Play games in our database is 10,000x, and 87.5% of them clear 5,000x. At 2,100x, Bee Keeper belongs to the bottom 6%. Our record previously claimed 10,000x, nearly five times too high.
The bonus buy costs 100x the stake, meaning £5 at minimum and £100 at £1. The arithmetic tilts slightly towards the player: SlotCatalog puts the natural trigger at one spin in 118.27, which is 118x in committed stakes, against 100x to buy it. That is the same trade-off as on Jumbo Safari, the other Reel Kingdom title in this set. The option is banned in the United Kingdom. SlotCatalog also documents an Ante Bet option intended to raise scatter frequency.
