Arguably the ocean’s most famous mythological creature is the mermaid. Half human, half fish, this creature has inspired legends of the seduction of men stranded at sea. In a way, mermaids are often seen as the femme fatales of the ocean. Or as the charming, pink-haired Ariel from Disney’s animated movie. With Mermaid’s Galore, the developers surely went with the second approach. One of the mermaids presented in the game is quite similar to the aquatic Disney princess and the entire feel of the game is light-hearted and colourful.
The game is set underwater (wow, really?) and everyone brave enough to dive in can make friends with five different mermaids. They sport different hairstyles and outfits, but they share the same manga design. The girls look very cute and they will bring you joy whenever they appear on the reels, not to mention valuable prizes they produce when they get together. While they act as high-value symbols, you will also see low-value gems on the screen. Keep in mind that the symbols of mermaids have a silver and golden frame. The ones framed in gold pay more and the tool on the side of the reels lets you pick how many golden symbols you want.
The clam with a pearl is the slot’s Wild, and it can also appear with a 2x and 3x multiplier. All of these Wilds work as substitute symbols and they multiply the payout if they have the multiplier sign. They cannot replace each other and the Bonus symbol. Three Bonus symbols on the reels activate the Free Spins round where the punter receives the initial 10 freebies. During the round, the player can get more gratis spins – if 2 Bonus spins land the player gets 3 spins extra and if 3 Bonus icons land the player wins +10 spins. Furthermore, only the 3x Wild appears throughout the round.
We’ve already mentioned the Gold Symbol selector that allows the user to make the adjustments according to his/her preferences. The user chooses whether to play with 1, 2, 3, 4 or 5 golden symbols. Mermaids Galore has another rewarding feature – three levels of Bonus Jackpots. Real money wagers feed the prize pots of the Silver Bonus Jackpot, the Gold Bonus Jackpot and the Platinum Bonus Jackpot. Activating more golden symbols will make it easier to win one of the offered jackpots.
Mermaids Galore online slot is highly volatile and it comes with a hit frequency of 50%. The RTP starts around 94.53% and goes up to 97.16%, depending on the player’s decisions. Which leads us to a piece of info we haven’t mentioned earlier – Mermaids Galore also features the Kalamba trademark feature, HyperBonus. One can buy it any time and secure free spins for a reasonable price.
