Emperor of the Sea Slot Review
Emperor of the Sea is a slot game brought to us by one of the world’s leading software manufacturers in the industry – Microgaming. Centering on a Chinese theme, the soundtrack in this slot game makes up for what the graphics may lack. This isn’t an overly sophisticated high definition slot game with 3D graphics, and is, in fact, quite simple. However, it offers a very unique and pleasant gaming experience, nonetheless. You will notice the backdrop pictures a characteristic representation of the sea and the sky above it. The symbols here include the lower value playing card icons A, K, Q, J, 10 and 9. Following them is a traditional Chinese ship with the characteristic bright red sails. Then there’s a Yin Yang symbol made up of two different colored koi fish and a turtle standing over a pile of gold coins. Finally, there’s a pot of gold and the Dragon Emperor symbol.
The setup features 5 reels and 4 rows, with a total number of 88 ways to win. You can also choose to play with a lesser number of paylines, which include only two other options: 38 and 68 paylines. Therefore, stakes can span from 38p per spin up to a maximum of £44 per spin. The RTP is relatively good at 96.28%.
Special Features in Emperor of the Sea
The Emperor of the Sea logo symbol is the game’s Wild and can appear in any position on the reels. As its Wildly duties would suggest, it can replace any of the regular symbols to help create winning sequences. It also offers higher payouts than the regular symbols. But it cannot substitute for the game’s Scatter symbol.
The Scatter, in turn, pictures a golden ingot and is the most valuable symbol in this game. It, too, can appear in any position on the reels. But what’s more, you can also activate this game’s single bonus features with its help. In order to do so, you will be looking to land at least 3 Scatters during a spin. This will reward you with a total of 8 freespins with two mini-features. One of them is the Rolling Reels feature, which will see to it that you can receive multiple wins during the same spin. Any time you land a winning combination during the freespins feature, the symbols in that combination will disappear, making way for news ones to land in their place.
The second feature is the Growing Wilds feature. This feature will make sure that Wild stack grow by one, when they appear on the reels, after each consecutive spin. They can reach a maximum of 15. This could potentially make for very satisfying payouts, with the overall possibility of winning up to 1,875x your stake.
Summary
Emperor of the Sea is a medium variance slot game, with higher wins, obviously, available during the bonus round. The game is also fairly simple, which has its charm. The graphics are decent, though not superb, and the soundtrack, as we already pointed out, is really great.
