Online Slots Based On 20,000 Leagues

Added: March 15, 2017

Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea is a classic science fiction novel written by Jules Verne way back in 1870. The adventures of Captain Nemo in his submarine The Nautilus have been reproduced in movie adaptations and have captured the imagination of the public. This article looks at two video slots loosely based on the novel.

The video slot from Wager Gaming Technology directly uses the title 20,000 Leagues. You can play this slot game at online casinos like Liberty Slots. The depiction, however, is completely different from the expected sci-fi one. The submarine resembles the Yellow Submarine from the Beatles hit song. The submarine is the wild symbol that appears only on reels 1, 2, 4 and 5. The game logo is the second wild symbol that appears only on reel 3. The captain awards the highest payout of 5,000 times the line bet and starts paying from a solitary symbol on reel one. The other high paying symbols are diver, shark and treasure chest. These start paying out from combinations of two symbols aligned from left to right. The low paying symbols are the usual Wager Gaming Technology playing card icons. The free spins feature is triggered when one or more submarine symbols appear with the game logo. You are awarded 10 free spins for each submarine symbol in the triggering spin. All payouts are doubled and the feature can be retriggered.

Leagues of Fortune video slot is from Microgaming and is live at online casinos like All Slots, Platinum Play and Golden Riviera. It is more in keeping with the sci-fi nature of the novel. Both the visuals and gaming features are slicker. Leagues of Fortune is a 1,024 ways slot game with four rows of symbols across the reels. The game logo is a stacked wild symbol that also awards the highest line payouts. The other thematic symbols on the reels are the captain, diver, submarine and map. The low paying symbols are the usual Microgaming playing card icons. The treasure chest awards scatter payouts and triggers the free spins feature. The visual declaration of the free spins is unique. A giant squid smashes into the reels a number of times, awarding a number of free spins each time. All the free spins are added and awarded to the player. The free spins payouts are multiplied five times. The free spins cannot be retriggered. Leagues of Fortune has an optional gamble game but not the standard one. It is the Microgaming Your Gamble feature in which you can go for high risk wins up to 20 times the bet.
