Atlantic Wilds

A slot from Gamomat and has an ocean theme would it be the Atlantic ocean I would have to go with here and it’s the usual Gamomat 5 reel, 3 rows with a choice of 10, 20 or 30 fixed lines. Depending on how many lines you select to go with determines your min bet which can be a friendly low of 0.10 per spin.

The feature here is just 5 free spins for 3 scatters, I find that a bit too low to get only 5 cause if you just get dead spins you can get wiped out and the scatters do only appear on the middle 3 reels and one good point is that you can re-trigger the free spins for additional spins to extend the fun. The dolphin is the scatter and pays 100x for 5 scatters.

I was playing this slot for the first time but couldn’t get the feature triggered so it is what it is but considering there are only 3 scatters on the screen that could be the issue there, in the end it did spit out a base win of some sort so at least it has that going for it.

Looking at other areas of the slot you get the usual Gamomat gamble features of card cables and the ladder gambles which can make up for some of those times when you are on your base game grind towards a feature and along the way you can have a gamble here and there including half the stake of the win. Sometimes even at end of a feature you can gamble half or all of it. You can gamble up to 5 times which happens to be the standard on these color gambles.

The slot comes with some nice piano music along the way in the base game which you can play along with the sound effects.

I got to play the slot at it’s maximum RTP of 96.13% which gave me a fair shot at a fair base game grind as I worked myself towards a feature which didn’t eventuate but perhaps next time.

Main things here are the 5 free spins only for the 3 scatters, this needs more for sure at least 10 or 12 or make it easy to re-trigger if you going to give the player 5 spins to start with. Slots used to give 12 or 15 or 20 spin features not this 5 spin nonsense.

Seeing any game with a dolphin image always reminds me of my old favourite Dolphin Reef game by Playtech. Seeing the dolphin in this Atlantic Wilds game from Gamomat caught my curiosity and made me wonder if it’s a similar game to Dolphin Reef, but after glancing into the game, it certainly isn’t.

Atlantic Wilds play with 30 lines, but the lines are selectable, so players can play with 10, 20, or 30 lines, whichever they prefer. The starting bet is therefore either 10, 20 or 30 cents per spin, and the number of lines can be changed at any time during play. The Dolphin is the Wild symbol, as expected, but it pays a very low 33x the bet amount for a 5-of-a-kind win. The other symbols have even lower win values, about 13x down to 3x, making this game a low to medium volatility game. Getting 3 Bonus symbols on reels 2, 3 and 4 would pay a 2x win, and awards 5 free spins with additional Wild symbols added onto the reels. Yes, that means all 5 reels can be fully stacked with Wilds, for a maximum win of 1000x, and the free spins can be retriggered as well.

The Dolphin Wild can either appear singularly or in stacks on the reels, both in the base game and during the free spins play, but there’s absolutely no win multipliers to boost up the wins. So don’t expect to get huge wins on this game, although good wins are indeed possible, especially when you get those stacked Wilds on 3 or more reels. Getting 3 more Bonus symbols during the free spins would add 5 more free spins, but the retriggers do not come often, and it doesn’t retrigger for many times either. The most I’ve gotten was just one retrigger, and that wasn’t exciting enough, sad to say.

Playing this Atlantic Wilds game can be fun when the Wilds do come stacked frequently, providing lots of minor wins, and that keeps the game going on for a longer playtime. However, the game isn’t interesting enough and some players may get bored real quickly. I managed to stay interested for about an hour at most, then it was quitting time already. Would I come back for more plays? Most likely not!
