Deep Blue Slots
If you’ve always wanted to explore the depths of the ocean, now’s your chance with Deep Blue, the fascinating video slot from GamePlay Interactive.
The glorious graphics will make you feel as if you’re really plunging into the watery depths as you spin the reels for your chance to win big prizes.
But will Deep Blue help you find sunken treasure or will you simply be out of your depth? Here’s a review of Deep Blue and everything you can expect from the game.
Explore the Ocean
The watery theme of Deep Blue is evident from the very first moment as a ponderous blue whale fills up your screen as you wait for the game to load.
And as you’re met with the welcome screen you’ll feel as if you’ve plunged right into the very depths of the sea. Surrounded by coral-covered rocks with the eerie glow from the surface miles ahead lighting up the water, the real world will suddenly feel a long way away.
The aquatic theme continues as you enter into the game, with all kinds of bottom dwellers waiting on the reels. Rays, iridescent jellyfish and angler fish wait patiently for the game to begin. The reels also include letters from the high value playing cards but even these aren’t exactly run of the mill. Look closely and you’ll see scales and fins!
As you’d expected, the screen in front of your eyes is filled with the ocean, with not a glimpse of the sky overhead. And at the bottom, coral, shells and sea anemones gently bob up and down in time with the ebb and flow of the waves.
The soundtrack is cheery and as you spin the reels you’ll hear the sounds of bubbles, reminding you that you are very definitely inhabiting a land at the bottom of the sea!
Time to Play in the Deep Blue
When you’re ready to start playing in the water, just click on the spin button to set the reels in motion.
You’ll be playing on 5 reels filled with sea-related symbols and you’ll have a grand total of 25 paylines that you can activate. You won’t have the option to alter the number of coins you play with, as that is restricted to just one per line. You can adjust the value however, with the minimum sum set at 0.05 and rising to a maximum of 5.
There’s a decent amount of features included in the game with free spins, wild and scatter symbols and a multiplier all available in play. There’s not a progressive jackpot nor a bonus game, and the jackpot isn’t the most generous at 1500.
Do You Dare to Face the Angler Fish?
If you have an appetite to increase your winnings, you can choose to take up the offer of doubling up your prize.
This feature can be accessed via the big button on the bottom of your screen but beware, there’s a shock waiting for you in this game!
As soon as you click the option, you’ll immediately be taken to a new screen where the sight of a cute little fish is overwhelmed by two terrifying angler fish baring their sharp teeth! If you’re not prepared for it, the graphics can come as a bit of a shock!
The Double Up game will see you taking a bet on whether the cute little fish manages to escape with its life. Will you bet on him evading the two giant angler fish who are determined to eat him alive? Or will you bet on the angler fish getting their dinner?
Don’t be tempted to vote for the little guy to escape just because you feel sorry for him because if you’re wrong, you’ll lose your prize money! If you bet the right way you’ll be able to escape with double what you had before. But you’ll never be able to forget the sight of those ghastly teeth and big eyes staring into your soul….
Explore the Ocean Depths
Deep Blue has a certain charm that’s impossible to ignore with crystal clear graphics and smooth gameplay. The characters will alternately enchant and terrify you but that’s all part of the fun! Deep Blue is jam-packed with plenty of features but there are some missing, such as a bonus game. The jackpot is also a lot lower than can be won on other games too. Nevertheless, the game is fun to play and there’s enough to keep all players entertained, whatever their level of experience.
