Hands up who remembers The Love Boat?  Hands up who’s pretending not to remember it but does really?  For those unfamiliar with this particular American show, it was a sitcom set on a cruise ship which ran from 1977 until 1986 and it contained a cast of cheesy characters, some of whom have become cult figures. This new online slot from Playtech brings the original cast to life in a feature-packed game which also treats us to original dialogue as well as the Love Boat soundtrack.

There are five reels and twenty five paylines to keep you busy and a range of Love Boat-related icons to help you make those winning combos.  There’s a playing card, a lifebuoy, a heart, a slightly different lifebuoy and some clinking glasses; then we have the five main characters – Captain Merrill Stubing, Dr. Adam Bricker, Julie McCoy, Isaac Washington and Burl Smith.

The red ship is the wild symbol, the ship’s speed control is the bonus and the Love Boat logo is the scatter symbol.

Bonus Features

Matchup Bonus

Landing the speed control symbols on reels one, three and five will set you up for this bonus; you’ll be taken to a screen with some silhouetted women on the left and men on the right.  You must pick one of each and they will be worth a cash amount.

The game will then measure how well suited your picks are and you’ll get a multiplier based on that as follows:

• Let’s Just Be Friends – x1
• You’re Smoking Hot – 3x
• It’s My One True Love – 5x

Love Doctor Free Spins

The Love Boat logo will trigger this feature and you’ll get ten free spins with the Love Meter to help you along your way.  Each time the Doc lands on the reels he will fill the meter slightly, triggering a new feature as you progress.  Each feature lasts for the rest of the spins and in order they are as:

• Freezing Wild
• More Free Spins
• Freezing Wild
• More Free Spins
• More Free Spins + Multiplier

Dream Cruise Jackpot

During the base game, jackpot tickets can appear on reel five and each one you land is an entry into weekly the draw for €10,000.    Tickets appear randomly but the higher your stake, the more you’ll encounter.

The Love Boat Online Slot Playing Tips

There’s two choices here – lower your stake and play maximum paylines for a shot at the bonus features or increase your stake for a greater chance of winning jackpot tickets.  High rollers may of course want to do both!

Verdict

This is funny and innovative slot which is only improved with the addition of the actors dialogue and a funky seventies soundtrack; the bonus features crop up regularly and there’s never a dull moment – don’t miss out on a top notch slots experience.
