Australians love the blue of the oceans and there are two Microgaming pokies where you will find plenty of ocean themed symbols with deep blue background. One is Mermaids Millions and the other is Ariana. They can be played at online casinos like Casino Mate and Royal Vegas.
Mermaids Millions is one of the older video pokies in the Microgaming portfolio, but it has neither lost its charm nor its traffic. It creates an atmosphere similar to the Disney animated movie The Little Mermaid with bold, bright and colourful symbols. These include seahorse, crab, octopus, treasure chest and pearl. King Neptune rules the ocean domain and is the wild symbol in this online pokie. It substitutes for all other symbol, except the scatter and bonus symbols, to complete winning combinations. It also awards the highest line payouts, with five Neptune symbols on an enabled payline delivering 7500 coins. The Mermaid Princess is the scatter symbol. Three or more of them landing anywhere on the reels trigger the free spins feature. You will be awarded ten free spins that can be retriggered. The treasure chest symbol activates a bonus game on the second screen. You will have the opportunity to choose treasure chests on the ocean bed and win random bonus payouts. Mermaids Millions is a 15 paylines online pokie in the 5×3 reels structure.
Ariana is a recently released online pokie with more realistic depiction of the graphics. The beautiful and divine Ariana is presented as a sea goddess. The other symbols starfish, sea anemones, treasure chest and coral bed. Some of the symbols can appear stacked reel 1. This triggers the innovative Expanding Symbols feature. Then the matching symbols on all other reels also expand to cover the entire reel. The Ariana logo is the wild symbol and it also awards the highest line payouts. The starfish is the scatter symbol and it triggers the free spins feature. You are awarded 15 free spins. The Ariana logo wild symbol can appear stacked on reel 1 during the free spins. And any full symbol stack on reel 1 expands matching symbols and wild symbols on the other reels. Ariana is a 25 paylines online pokie in the 5×3 reels structure. In Ariana the total bet per spin can be as high as AU$1,250. This is a great incentive for high roller players at Australian online casinos. Also, Ariana has high variance and suits aggressive players.
