It is said that humans have only explored about 5% of the world’s oceans, but when that 5% includes the kind of gains on offer in Wild Ocean then the other 95% can pretty much stay where it is. Knowing humans, it’s better that we left it alone anyway. Wild Ocean is a colorful new slot from Booming Games that combines funny cartoon sea creatures with serious payouts to potentially leave your finances in a very good plaice indeed.

So, grab your oxygen tank and your underwater camera, and let’s get swimming!

Reeling in the Wins

Wild Ocean is a 5-reel, 20-payline slot, with all paylines active on any given spin. Start the slot by toggling your total bet size at the bottom left of the screen, choose between $0.20 and $100, and hit the spin symbol. A basic win can be achieved by landing three matching symbols on any of the 20 paylines – see the game menu for the best paying combinations. Don’t forget that winning combinations need to start from the leftmost reel, and they must be on adjacent reels. The base game offers a very handy max prize of $5,000, which will be yours if you manage to net five anglerfish and you wagered the maximum amount.

A Little Extra Kelp

Fortunately the base game is just the start – as far as wins go – as Wild Ocean offers you a little extra kelp in landing the really big fish:

• Wild – This is the shark symbol, and it substitutes for all symbols to make a winning line, except the scatter. If you are playing during the free games, the wild will become a walking wild, which will move to one reel per spin until it disappears. It can also become a locked wild, which will stay in place during the free spins.
• Scatter – The scatter symbol is the orange octopus. Landing this will not result in a cash payout, but three of it anywhere on the reels will grant free spins. In free spin games you will be faced with a spinning a wheel of fortune, which will determine how many free games you will get, with up to 12 available
• 2-Way Pay – This is a special symbol, represented by a squid. If it lands, the slot will consider combos starting from the right as well as the left, paying out twice if you land five of them.

Will you Reel in a Big Win?

Wild Ocean is a fun little game with some very serious wins on the table and a 2-way-pay feature that could really give you something to trout about. BitStarz recently saw a record $2.4 million win, so why not don your flippers and see if you can tame the Wild Ocean to add your name into our record books?
