Queen Mermaid Slot Machine
Why should the guys get all the fun. It’s more than fair that female gamers have a slot machine to call their own that, while girly, isn’t relying on stereotypical conventions to win its audience. If that sounds like something you’re longing for, you’re in luck as Casino Web Scripts has Queen Mermaid on hand.
Aquatic good fun in an easy to play video slot format, using both classic and contemporary design elements, resulting in a lively yet refined game that everyone can enjoy. There are 5 reels and 25 pay lines in total, with a broad betting range to play around with, should you be playing outside of the free demo.
What we love most about this title though, at least to begin with, is that there’s a progressive jackpot up for grabs, consisting of three levels: Mini, Major and Mega. Imagine getting the riches from those beauties, you won’t have to play like a Queen, you’ll be living like one!
Pearls of Wisdom
Well, maybe not wisdom, but money, which is the next best thing; Queen Mermaid has many symbols which can get you to the top of the slots, all you need to do is land the right combos. Even though the size of the win is down to the number of matches you get, and which symbol, a lot of it comes from the wild tile and where it lands.
The wild, a grinning shark, has every reason to look so smug, for although he doesn’t trigger bonus rounds and spins, he has plenty of multipliers to give out. For that to happen, gamers will need to get the shark on either the second, third or fourth reel. Depending on which reel you get, your reward amount will vary. Should you get a win on the second reel, the multiplier is a low x2, with the third reel giving an improved 3x, and the fourth one giving the top amount of x4.
If that seems a little too lacklustre for you, there’s the scatter symbol, which is a pretty mermaid, that can gift as many as 75 extra games. The trick is to get five of a kind, which is a lot easier said than done, but thanks to having 25 pay lines, the odds are more improved.
Luxury Liner
Instead of a bonus game, there’s the progressive jackpot, as mentioned before. To obtain the amounts, which at the time of writing stood at €6,022, €20,075 and €60,229, you just need to play and hope for the best. That’s right, all three of the jackpots are activated at random, sadly meaning that you could go several games without ever unlocking them, or you could play once and get the Mega Jackpot.
At all times the prize sizes will be listed just above the reels, signalled by red subheadings for each level of win. Having them displayed can be annoying when they never turn up, but it does refocus you when you start losing interest in Queen Mermaid, which is perhaps the point.
Do You Risk It?
Like so many online slots, this Casino Web Scripts game has a gamble option available, and like the endless number of examples you’ve likely come across, it’s the standard ‘what colour is the hidden card’. It’s a shame the gamble option is so predictable, as other titles from the brand, like Pyramid Riches, has a unique gamble system which helps to improve your overall experience of the game.
Nonetheless, while all too familiar, it does mean you won’t struggle to grasp the controls, if you can accept that as a form of consolation.
Sunken Chest
All sorts can wash up on shore, which means all sorts must be lurking below the water's surface. In Queen Mermaid’s case, what’s lurking is a bet of between €1 and €1,000. These amounts are spread out across the number of win lines you have active, which means you can have a stake worth €25,000! Should you wish to bet with the full amount of cash, but reduce the number of lines (or vice versa), you can decrease and increase values via the arrow buttons.
The wins you make are listed, as is the remaining credit you have left, allowing for an informed gaming experience. Personally, we think this is brilliant, as it means you never lose track of the money you’ve spent.
Not Quite a Queen Yet
Queen Mermaid doesn’t quite feel like it’s fit for a Queen, but more for a Princess. It has some stellar aspects, but none that make it an outstanding title. This certainly appears to be one of the brand’s smaller activities, though the pay outs are incredibly good if that is the case.
