RTG Polar Explorer Online Slot Goes Live

The leading software provider Realtime Gaming (RTG) has launched the Polar Explorer slots machine at its online casinos like Manhattan Slots, Cherry Red, Planet 7 and Sloto’ Cash. Polar Explorer introduces a novel and exciting mechanism for triggering the free spins bonus rounds. In keeping with the theme, the high paying symbols include explorer, ship, polar bear, whale, seal and compass. The low paying symbols are the playing card icons from ace to nine. The explorer is the wild symbol. In the animation the explorer pulls out a telescope and scours the snowy landscape. The explorer’s ship is the scatter symbol. It offers scatter payouts when two or more appear anywhere on the reels.

When the card symbols appear in reels 2, 3 and 4 during the main game they may contain part of a snowflake pattern in the background. It may happen that these reels contain only the card symbols with patterns and that the patterns may be so arranged as to form a complete snowflake in the background. If this happens then one of three bonus features, Explorer Feature, Discovery Feature and Hidden Chest Feature, will be randomly triggered.

In the Explorer Feature the player is awarded five free spins in which reels 4 and 5 are made up entirely of explorer symbols. Three or more scatter ship symbols appearing on the reels during the feature will add five free spins. In the Discovery Feature eight free spins are awarded. During each spin at least one reel will have at least one explorer symbol. It is possible for explorer symbols to appear in stacks. Three or more scatter ships will add eight free spins. The retrigger can take place maximum two times. In the Hidden Chest feature a second screen displays a snow cave with five chests. Players have to use the harpoon to open selected chests to reveal up to three bonus symbols. After that the player will be allotted eight free spins. During these free spins the revealed bonus symbols are replaced by the wild explorer symbols. Three or more scatter ships appearing on the reels will add five free spins.

The Feature Guarantee ensures that if the snowflake pattern does not appear for 125 consecutive spins then one of the bonus features will be automatically triggered. Players can also use the Instant Trigger Chance to try and activate the free spins features. However, if they fail in this then the Feature Guarantee will be reset to 125 spins without the player enjoying any benefit. Players can enjoy several of the regular RTG features in Polar Explorer. Since this slot game is from the Real Series, the Major or Minor progressive jackpots can be hit after any spin.
