LIKED
What is life without a beach, and what is a beach without those beach babes. Yeah, life's a beach, just as this game here says. Despite being an old game, I like the overall look of it. Simple, with a yellowish colour scheme, and with just enough of other vibrant colours to make the game looks exciting. And that Beach Babe compliments everything very nicely too. She's the Wild symbol, appearing only on reels 2, 3 and 4, but does nothing else other than to substitute for other symbols except the Scatter symbol. A true blue 'd**b' symbol, but I'm not going to say it . Don't wanna make that Beach Babe feels bad, hehehe.
The happy smiling Lifeguard, why shouldn't he be, he's looking after those gorgeous babes, is the Scatter symbol, 5 of which pays 150x the total bet. Get 3 or more of these Scatters trigger a Bonus feature game instead of the usual Free Spins game. Too bad, there isn't any free spins with these beach babes. The Bar Hut pays a marvelous 12,000x the total bet for 5 of them, taking over what the Wild symbols should be paying, the Umbrella pays 1000x, the Radio pays 500, the goggles pay 500x, and the rest paying from 300x to 100x, all per line bet for 5 of each kind. Hmm, just short of being a good paytable, but this is a good average one.
Pity about the lack of free spins though. I would have liked this game so much more. Pick-and-win feature games aren't interesting at all to me, but this is what the Bonus feature game do when you trigger it by getting those 3 Wilds on reels 2, 3 and 4. From the 6 umbrellas on the beach, pick 4 to win cash prizes. Getting a beach ball pays the least, a beach babe the most. If you happened to get only the beach balls, a consolation prize of 2x your bet amount will be awarded. There isn't any indication as to how high the prize might be, but the ones that I've won were all within 30x - 75x my bet amount, which is good actually. It hasn't paid anything below 30x as yet, or maybe I've been lucky all the while, who knows.
