Majestic Mermaid Slots
Majestic Mermaid is a slot by Rival Gaming. It celebrates the beauty of the ocean and mythical mer-creatures. There are a plethora of mermaid slots out there, but Majestic Mermaid is a little different. It's played on five reels and features four rows. The world of this slot contains not only mermaids, but also deep sea treasures and special sea creatures. There are twenty five pay lines, and the betting range is far superior to some other mermaid slots out there. The range is wide, so you can bet as little as $0.40 per spin or as much as $100 per spin. The game is available to play in demo mode or real money mode. It's also compatible with a wide range of devices, like laptops and other desktop computers, along with mobile phones and iPads.
Theme and Symbols
The game board is underwater. There are underwater earth structures like cliffs and rocks. There are pieces of coral and other sea plants, and two mermaid statues frame the sides of the game grid. The sun pierces into the ocean water, illuminating the aquatic background. There are several ocean themed symbols with stunning details. The mermaid itself looks very vibrant and 90s, with big eyes and bright hair and delicate, doll like features. Majestic Mermaid's return to player percentage is 94.13%.
The top paying regular symbol on this game grid is the turtle, which pays out 1.25 per spin for five. The second highest paying symbol is the dolphin, which pays out 1.00 for a match of five. Other symbols include the colorful octopus, which is the third highest valued symbol. They also have a sea horse and a sea star, and a clam that I would presume may contain a pearl if opened. The lowest paying symbols are the A, J, K, and Q symbols. This game has 1024 total pay lines, so there are plenty of winning opportunities. Wins are awarded when a match appears consecutively starting from the left side of the game grid. There is a control panel located at the bottom of the grid, and it's blue and transparent. You can adjust your bet down there, along with opening a grid where you can take a peak at the pay table, or adjust the sound that goes along with the reels. As you play the game dramatic string music that somehow accurately sounds like the ocean plays in the background as a sort of soundtrack.
Special Features
The wild symbol is the gorgeous mermaid. She will operate as a substitute and replace other symbols to complete winning combinations, except for combinations that include the scatter symbol. The scatter symbol is the underwater treasure chest! Scatter symbols award payouts when they display on the screen, and are not required to fall on a single pay line to award a prize, which is a nice detail. The scatter win amounts are multiplied by the number of active lines.
You'll trigger the Lock and Load Feature if you land three to five scatter symbols on the screen. The Lock and Load Feature is a re-spins bonus game that skillfully includes both prize symbols and power-up symbols. You have to land at least three scatter symbols to trigger this bonus. If you land more Power Up Symbols, The Power Up symbols that land on the reels will remain in place and reset the respins to three.
Summary
Beautiful mermaids, underwater symbols and gorgeous colors. This slot is visually remarkable, and the special features just make it even better. I was also impressed by the pay range and the number of pay lines. Trying this game would be a smart choice, as I doubt you'd regret it!
