Lord of the Ocean Introduction
If you're looking for free online pokies that have a mythical feel with a straightforward Wild but an unusual Special Feature, Novomatic's Lord of the Ocean is well worth a look. Set against an underwater background of corals, lost cities and shipwrecked treasure, the reels and their symbols have a mystical, nautical feel.
Game Play
A standard 5-reel, 3-row pokie, Lord of the Ocean has up to 10 paylines that you can adjust along with your wager via the menu. The Lord of the Ocean symbol is the Wild, and it substitutes all symbols except for the Scatter, which is a bejewelled amulet with a secret of its own. Five Wilds signify the Jackpot - a massive 10,000 credits - and the Scatter will also pay well, at 4,000 credits for 5 of a kind.
Check the pay table for more details on winning combinations of all symbols.
Feature
Three or more Scatters trigger the free spin feature, and here is where the Amulet's secret is unlocked. The amulet turns and selects a random symbol at the beginning of the feature to be the magical expanding symbol. The expanding symbol will then propagate itself across the reels after each spin, gaining you extra wins.
The feature can be re-triggered multiple times during the 10 free spins and is great to watch, especially with the stirring soundtrack in the background. Lord of the Ocean makes for an intriguing escape to another world. It has a theoretical return to player of 95.10% and is also available on mobile so you can keep playing it anywhere you like.
