Overview
Mermaids Millions is a 5-reel 15-payline video slot powered by Microgaming. This slot has an aquatic theme featuring mermaids, seahorses, seawater creatures and the God of the sea, Neptune himself. Mermaids Millions is a colourful game with easy and fast gameplay. The aquatic theme has swept into every aspect of the game and even classic playing card symbols are decorated with underwater elements. Even though Mermaids Millions is not so original in terms of features, it’s still a popular game, and it can be played both on desktop and mobile.
How to play
Mermaids Millions slot has the classic game play elements of video slots. Coin sizes range from 0.01 to 1, and can be set by clicking on the +/- signs. Use the Select Coins feature to set the number of coins that you wish to bet per line. The maximum number of coins that can be bet per spin is 75, which is rather small compared to other video slots. Use the Select Lines features to set the number of lines to bet, and set the maximum bet possible by using the Max Bet feature. You can play the game in Regular or Expert mode, with the latter featuring an AutoPlay option that activates automatic spins.
As with most popular Microgaming slots, this too, can be played on mobile or on desktop in your browser. In terms of playing on mobile, Mermaids Millions has been optimised for Android phones and tablets, as well as iPhone and iPad. Demo play mode and real money play mode are of course both available.
Bonus elements
When not ruling the seas, Neptune doubles as a wild symbol in Mermaids Millions. The Neptune wild symbol has the ability to substitute all other symbols except for the scatter symbol represented in this slot game by Mermaids, and the bonus symbols, which are the Treasure Chests. Get 5 Neptune symbols in a line and you win a top pay-out of 7500 coins. 3 or more Mermaids will land you 10 free spins, which can be re-triggered during these free spins by landing 3 or more scatters again. Wins in this round are tripled.
If three Treasure Chests appear on an active line, you’re in for a different kind of bonus round, the Treasure Bonus round, in which the game transports you to the bottom of the sea. Depending on the number of Treasure Chests that triggered this round, you’ll have to choose 3 to 5 shells, which contain cash prizes that will be added to your pay-line wins after you’re finished with this round.
Jackpot
To get the 7500 coins’ worth of jackpot, you have to get 5 Neptune symbols in a line. Given that it’s a small jackpot compared to progressive ones, fans of progressive slots may not be as motivated to try this game.
Bottom line: Mermaids Millions is your run of the mill video slot, with fast-spinning reels and good graphics, although not as good as some of the newest Microgaming slots. This slot is what some people would call and “oldie but goldie” game, and rightfully so!
