Review of Moby Dick

Ahoy all sailors, the famous whale Moby Dick is alive! But not only in those beautifully written novels, but also in online casinos. The Moby Dick slot is a magical game surrounded by crashing blue waves and mighty wooden sailing boats just as you would have imagined in the very well known novel. The faint sounds of seagulls, and the gusts of wind make this video slot all the more fun and exciting to play.

The background of this game is based on the deep blue ocean, and pretty much the typical scenes you would expect in Moby Dick. You can see sailor boats in the distance, and the background really makes me think of exactly what I had pictured whilst reading the actual novel by Herman Melville. The symbols are also something to feel excited about, they consist of anchors, numbers and letters, Moby himself, and there are even Wild symbols!

The symbols which relate to Moby Dick such as the ship’s wheel and the mouth of the whale have the highest value, and the other symbols such as the numbers and letters will end up giving a lower win. Nonetheless, this video slot is filled with some very exciting features such as Freezing Wins and Free Spins!

Featuring 5 reels, and 25 fixed paylines, this Microgaming slot game appears to have the same sort of layout as any other slot, however one thing that is quite noticeably different is the fact that it doesn’t really have a boarder, the reels look as though they are placed directly floating on the ocean which is a lovely effect.

You are able to adjust your betting limits at the bottom of the game screen where you can see the ‘stake’ button. The minimum amount that you can bet in this slot game is £0.25, and the maximum amount that you can bet is £50.00, it’s time to choose wisely, and set sail on your choppy casino journey!

If you happen to get a winning combination whilst playing Moby Dick, this combination will freeze in place awarding an extra spin. If you manage to win more symbols that increase the winning combo, then they will also freeze in place. This will continue for the duration of the bonus feature until you stop accumulating more increasing winning combination symbols.

The Moby Dick Free Spins feature is triggered when you land at least four of the Free Spins Scatter symbols anywhere on the reels. If you manage to land on

• 4 Scatters it will give you 10 Free Spins
• 5 Scatters will give you 12 Free Spins
• 6 Scatters will give you 15 Free Spins
• 7 or more Scatters will give you 20 Free Spins

The Freezing Wins feature in a way works side by side with the Free Spins feature, because it makes it possible to land on that many Scatters during spins. It is possible to trigger more spins also if you land on more Scatters during the Free Spin round.

Overall I really enjoyed playing this slot game. I think these types of slots always feel so magical when you know that they are based on a world famous novel or movie. Moby Dick by Microgaming has been made just beautifully, and the features are definitely on par with the graphics. If you are a fan of the novel, then I would recommend giving it a few spins, even if it’s just to enjoy the light sounds of the ocean breeze!
