Ariana Slot by Microgaming

Ariana Free Spins

When 3 or more Starfish Scatter symbols land on the reels the Free Spins round is launched automatically. A large box with the caption Free Spins appears in the middle of the screen and the 15 Free Spins start automatically. Above the reels and to the left you will see the Free Spins counter showing the amount of spins remaining, to the right you will see Total Win which displays the accumulated wins for this round.

During free spins, it is possible for a stack of symbols to appear on the first reel, when this happens all matching symbols and any Wilds on the remaining reel will also expand if they will form a winning combination. The same bet and line settings that were in place before the free spins were triggered are used. If three more scatter symbols land, you will win additional free spins that are added to the remaining number of current free spins. When the round of Free Spins is finished, a large box fills the screen and displays the total amount won during the round. These winnings are added to your balance and you are automatically returned to the main game.

Stacked Wilds and Expanding Symbol Features

When playing the main game, if a matching stack of the Ariana, Coral, Seadragon or Treasure symbols lands on the first reel, the Expanding Symbol bonus feature will be triggered. During this feature any matching symbols that appear on the remaining reels and complete a winning combination, will also expand. This also applies to the Wild symbol but only during the Free Spins, if any are included in a winning combination when a stack of symbols appear, it will also expand.

Symbols and Payouts

A winning combination in this slot themed to ocean is when identical symbols appear on neighbouring reels from left to right starting with the first reel. Only the highest win per line will be paid. This slot has themed, playing card and special symbols, their payouts are applied to the bet per line (except for the Scatter) and are listed in the paytable which can be opened using the pays button to the right of the playing area. Special symbols:

• The Ariana logo is the Wild and has its own payouts for combos of 3 or more symbols and can also substitute for all symbols except the Scatter. During the Free Spins round this symbol can also form a stack
• A Purple Starfish is the Scatter Symbol and its payouts for 2 or more symbols landing anywhere on the screen, are applied to the total bet. 3 or more scatters will also trigger 15 Free Spins
