Ariana Pokies Review – Mermaid Themed Slots

Ariana is a Microgaming creation, taking an underwater paradise and its beautiful mermaid princess and creating a visually striking pokie that everyone can enjoy. To play this game for yourself, head for Royal Vegas Casino, where you can pickup some big bonuses and free spins to get the ball rolling. To see what we had to say about it, read on.

 

Gameplay

 

The wild symbol is the most generous symbol on this pokie, and if you fill the game reels with them then you’ll unlock 60,000 credits, which is the game’s highest payout. There are also a number of symbols that pay above 500x and even just a single payline of wilds will still trigger a payout of 2,500x.

 

Betting

 

Ariana has a low minimum bet and one of the highest maximum bets we have ever seen. You can play this pokie for just $0.25 a spin if you choose, but if you’re a high roller then you’ll benefit from the $1250 maximum bet. They don’t come much bigger than this.

 

Bonus Rounds

 

Ariana has a Stacked Symbols feature built into the base game, which serves to make standard play a little more interesting and rewarding. There is also a free spins round, and one in which the Stacked Symbols feature truly comes into its own.

 

You need to land three or more of the starfish symbols to trigger this round, after which you will be given a minimum of 15 free spins. If you get more of the starfish symbols during the feature then more free spins will be added to your total and the round will keep on playing.

 

Summary

 

Available on most formats, including mobile devices, Ariana is a fun, compatible and generous pokie that we really enjoyed. It doesn’t have enough going for it visually to surpass the better pokies out there, but with some high variance, some big wins and a great free spins round, its gameplay is solid.
