Mermaids Quest Details Page
Software (9)
Mermaid’s Quest software offers the best of Vegas Technology features that include speed control, sound options, Bet Max button and Auto Play. There are no statistics offered and this is a drawback for those who like to evaluate their performance.
Easy to Understand (10)
The game is easy to follow and the rules and procedures are clearly explained in the Payout Table and the Rules. The Help section provides complete details but will not be required by experienced players.
Graphics & Sounds (10)
The graphics are excellent and appropriate to the theme. The music and audio also reflect the sounds of water. The animations in the sea creatures are very cute. The bonus game on the second screen is a perfect example of the use of graphics and sound to create a thematic environment.
Theme and Concept (10)
The theme of the ocean bed is a common one and has been popularized by the movie The Little Mermaid. The deep blue of the ocean is the pervading color. The symbols and the features combine to bring the theme to life.
Game Features (10)
Mermaid’s Quest has both wild and scatter symbols, which have become mandatory. Both symbols have been used well in this slot game. The wild symbol also offers the highest fixed jackpot and the scatter symbol also triggers the free spins round. There is also a bonus game on the second screen. Hence there are plenty of winning options.
Betting Options (10)
Mermaid’s Quest allows players to adjust the coin denomination and the number of lines but fixes one coin per payline. However it achieves the same flexibility because it has a much wider coin denomination range. The total bet range varies from 0.01 to 200.00.
Jackpots (9)
There is no progressive jackpot, which is a drawback. The highest fixed jackpot is of 10000 coins, which to a great extent makes up for the lack of a progressive jackpot. The maximum payout on this jackpot is $100,000. Unfortunately this is balanced by the other jackpots being very low. The next highest jackpot is only 500 coins and this is disappointing.
