Ocean Riches Slot Machine

The mermaids are having a ball down in the waters of the ocean, where the colours are so vivid and the sealife so stunning that it’ll take your breath away. They know that you’re but a mere human, but that’s okay as they’ve turned their occasion into a convenient slot machine consisting of 5 reels and 50 paylines so that you don’t have to get wet. 

It already sounds like we’re about to discover something that’ll stay with us until our last days, but when we heard about the x1,000 jackpot, well that just made the whole affair much more enticing and worthwhile. Then there’s the choice of wilds option which we’ve never even heard of before, that helps to make this the greatest underwater party of the ages. 

Ocean Riches, from PlayPearls, has a fair few surprises in store, so don’t keep anyone waiting and get playing today; you can use our guide alongside it if it helps you out. 

Welcome

This is definitely something that we’ve seen before: kingdoms and redheaded mermaids? It sounds a lot like a Disney film, what was that name again…? Although slightly similar in nature and appearance, Ocean Riches has a more mature feel to it, as highlighted by the imagery used. None of it looks realistic as such, but nor does it look like an animation, it is photorealistic combining the two to create an aesthetic you can admire. 

Although every tile is intriguing in its own right, that mermaid framed by shells and coral is the most pretty of all, with the detail shown there second to none. Surprisingly though, while she rewards some of the highest figures in the game, she still only gifts users 8.00 when they find all five of her, which is rather disappointing. Only the game’s logo icon beats her and delivers 10.00. 

If this has you reaching for the off button, wait, for there are those wilds we mentioned earlier; even though there is a standard wild, there are also five others triggered by the scatter symbol. As you can see a lot of conventional rules have been turned on their heads to create the gameplay of this slot machine. 

If three scatters appear (they look like a treasure chest of riches), players will be shown a choice of multi-colored starfish and wilds, all of which have different outcomes.

• Blue: Will get you 20 free spins and either a x2, x3 or x5 multiplier.
• Green: A reduced amount of free spins, down to 15, and between x3 and x8 multipliers.
• Pink: Once again the number of extras is decreased, this time to 10 free rounds, but the multiplier is now between x5 and x10.
• Purple: Users have 8 free spins but with a maximum multiplier of x15, with the min amount being x8.
• Yellow: This is the least amount of spins you can get but with the highest of multipliers; for 5 free waves you can get up to a x30 multiplier!

As if that wasn’t enough to be going on with, there is then the normal wild which subs other icons except for the scatter/ To try and avoid any confusion it is red and yellow in colour, though undoubtedly you’ll become numb to all the starfish before too long. 

Getting the Money

You’ve got to give a little to get a little, and here is no different. Customers have a decent sized betting range that is very forgiving on even the tightest of budgets, meaning you don’t have to break the bank to have a good time. 

The first amount is a lowly 0.01 on all paylines, but it can be upped until it hits the 0.50 which is the game’s limit, meaning you either have a stake of 0.50 or 25.00 credits. See what we mean when we said it’s forgiving? 

As this is a slot machine with fixed paylines, you don’t have anything else to do now but to hit spin or autoplay, depending on how you like your action, hands on or hands off. 

Shower Me in Riches

Ocean Riches is a fairly good game from PlayPearls, with an exceptionally low pay-in that is accessible to virtually everyone in the community. And while the ‘bonus features’ aren’t conventional and are most definitely confusing after a while, they prove to be very giving if you find the right combination.
