The underwater world of the mermaid is the setting and the theme of this online slot from Habanero Systems – it’s called Ocean’s Tail and as well as giving us legendary creatures it will also award free spins and stacked symbols on all reels.

Ocean’s Tail is a five reel slot with three rows and up to twenty paylines; those reels spin within a delicate, ornate structure which floats above the dark blue seas the clouds roll in across the horizon.There’s a high quality, brooding soundtrack to accompany the gameplay.

The four mermaids and the sailor are five of the seven symbols and they will appear stacked on the reels at all times; the map and the tiara are regular sized symbols but by far the most valuable and worth 2000x and 1000x the stake respectively for five on a payline.

The evil-looking mermaid is wild, she appears on reels two to five and and she will replace all standard symbols to help form winning matches; the stringed, musical instrument (a harp?) is the scatter symbol.

Bonus Features

Free Spins

This is triggered by landing at least three of the harp scatter symbols anywhere in view for which you’ll receive ten free spins; there are no extra multipliers or enhancements in this round but each time three anchor symbols are collected another three free spins will be awarded.

Verdict

Ocean’s Tail looks good and the free spins are always welcome but what we really like are the stacked symbols and the way they add a different aspect to the gameplay – it’s certainly been done before but it catches the eye as the reels spin.
