Design and Gameplay
In this fantastic Betsoft game, fish have teeth. And that's that. Dive deep underwater expecting to find darkness and creatures of the depths, only to be surprised and to stumble upon a refined casino experience accompanied by smiling and goofy fish. The sound of the sea waves sets the mood, although it might remind some players of the beach rather than the blue depths of the ocean.
At first glance the style may seem somewhat mundane; however, once you notice the impressive details you will realize the care that this game was given. Notice all the bubbles floating to the surface. Or what about the diffracting underwater sunlight adjusting to the restless ocean. Did you see the moving sea weeds and underwater plant life? Great attention to detail.
The classic 30 payline structure is back, and is adjustable so that you can decide how many paylines stay active. There are a lot of ways to win, so here’s what you need to know about the symbols and their values. The blue horizontal fish, the slightly brown fish and the clown fish have the lowest maximum payouts of 25, 25 and 50 respectfully. Next follow the vertical blue fish with 100 max win, the yellow one with 200, and the green fish with a maximum winning capacity of 300. The most profitable sign is the mermaid one, with a 500 max win.
Bonuses
The bonus features of Under the Sea are nothing new, but that doesn’t mean that they are not enjoyable and highly addictive.
Pearls are the riches of the oceans, and it this case nothing changes. In this case the pearl serves as a Wild Bonus symbol for all non-bonus symbols. If you land on one Wild symbol in a payline you multiply you winnings by x2. Land on two Wild and quadruple your winnings. Get three pearls and your prize goes 8x.
And what about free spins, you ask? Well, land on three or more ship symbols which play the role of Scatters and get Free Spins. For landing four scatters in a single turn you get 12 Free Spins. For landing five you get 15 Free Spins. All winnings during Free Spins mode are doubled.
Last on the bonus features agenda is the special bonus round that lets you find treasure under the sea and earn credit. In order to activate this feature the player needs to land on 3 chest symbols.
Conclusion
Under the Sea is a welcoming casino game for any player no matter the experience. You are sure to be impresses by the details and you’ll also have a laugh at the expense of those wacky fish.
