Aquarium

Why don’t we forget about all those cutting edge online slot games, just for a second. Some are based on superheroes, while some are derived directly from the latest blockbuster movies, but they all have one thing in common…

…and that’s the fact they are all far from the traditional values and are focused on overly complex and detailed graphics.

If you’re one of those who are tired of such antics, we have a wondrous little game to show you, and that’s Aquarium, developed by World Match and released all the way back in 2011.

Let’s show you why this can be a great game!

Themes

Well, it wasn’t really that hard to guess what the game is really about - it’s as if you’re placed a slot game inside an aquarium so that you can play the and enjoy the tranquility of a fish-tank at the same time.

The reels are transparent but somewhat blurry, just as you’d see underwater. They are placed over a background that looks like a coral reef somewhere deep in the ocean.

The little details are all vividly colored and perfectly complement the overall atmosphere of the game.

As you’d probably expect, all the symbols, regardless of the value, are actually inhabitants of the water world. These include corals, exotic fish, clams, seashells, seahorses, a starfish, and even a turtle.

Of course, there is a wild, and is represented by an actual little fishtank. Quite appropriately, the scatter comes in the form of a treasure chest… as does the bonus game symbol.

…and the whole thing comes wrapped in neat sound effects, which can be turned off if they become annoying to you over time.

Betting Options and Other Functions

First things first - you can’t really check whether Lady Luck is on your side if you’re not well acquainted with all the options and functions in the game.

There are five reels and spreading right across them are the 25 selectable pay-lines. You can choose between 1, 5, 10, 15, and 25 of them to play on.

Also, you can adjust the bet level, as it ranges from 0.01 to 1.00. This amounts to 25.00 for the maximum bet, but there’s also a separate button for that.

If you don’t like clicking away on the spin button like a madman, you will highly appreciate the inclusion of the auto-play button.

One of the historically important facts is that this is the first game from World Match that came with the Spin Stop feature.

Features

Bonus features is where this game truly excels:

• Wild - it can substitute for any other symbol except for the scatter and the magic spin

• Bonus game - Landing three or more scatters on the reels will trigger 3, 4 or 5 free spins.

• Bonus aquarium - If you land three or more of bonus game symbols anywhere on the screen you will trigger a bonus game with an aquarium full of fish. Clicking on 6 out of 12 fish will give you amazing prizes.

Our Take on Aquarium

Fun, simple, great looking graphics, very addictive gameplay, and plenty of bonus features make this a true little game of a game. Highly recommended.
