Players can stake as many as 10 coins per line, giving the Great Blue video slot minimum and maximum wagers of 0.01 per line, per spin, and 12.50 per spin, respectively. Yes, Great Blue is a really cheap video slot to play.
Special Features
The big Orca is the best paying symbol, as we’ve said. It also happens to be the wild symbol in this slot. It can substitute for all other icons in the game, with the exception of the scatter icon. Wilds can also double the value of all other wins in which they appear.
Those scatter icons appear as clams. When these symbols appear 2, 3, 4 or 5 times in any position on the reels, players will pocket scattered wins worth 2x, 5x, 20x, or 500x their total bet. You will also trigger a bonus round with 3 or more symbols.
A gamble feature has been included in the Great Blue slot, and it can be activated after any winning spin in the game. You must simply choose whether the next card will be a red or a black to double your winnings. Guess incorrectly, and you will lose the lot.
Bonus Feature
Now, back to the bonus feature in the Great Blue slot. This bonus feature automatically entitles to you to a total of 8 free spins, when 3 or more scatters appear anywhere on the reels. You will also pocket a 2x multiplier for your efforts. Before you start the free spins bonus, though, players can join a pick and win game.
Firstly, you can choose 2 out of 5 sea shells. Players will pocket additional free spins and/or multipliers for their efforts. In total, up to 33 free spins and 15x multipliers can be won with this feature. You can also land additional free pins by landing 3 more scatters during the bonus round.
Free spins can be retriggered indefinitely in this video slot, meaning that Great Blue has a lot to offer you once you are able to trigger the bonus round in the first place.
