Mermaid's Millions Introduction
Mermaids Millions, a classic five-reel, 15-payline pokie from Microgaming, is available for online, tablet and mobile play. This underwater-themed game is a low volatility game and you can play it here as a free pokies or spin for cash to be in with a chance of winning the max.
The theme
Come on down under the waves to Neptune’s world, which is filled with playing card symbols, sea creatures, sunken treasure and, of course, beautiful mermaids.
How to play
This game is very simply laid out, with the reels spinning inside a standard Microgaming control panel. Players just need to set their stake and select their paylines to get started. Now press ‘spin’ and look out for all the possible winning combinations. Mermaids Millions includes the playing card symbols 10, J, Q, K and Ace as the entry-level combinations.
The themed combination symbols are the clamshell, the sea horse and the treasure chest. All these symbols need to be included in three-, four- or five-of-a-kind combinations to win prizes.
Bonuses and features
The dashing, white-haired King Neptune is the wild symbol in Mermaids Millions. He substitutes for all symbols except for the scatter and the bonus symbol. He also has his own combination value for three-, four- and five-of-a-kind, which makes him the highest paying combo in the game. The beautiful blonde mermaid is the scatter. Land her anywhere in the reels to hear her laugh.
Get three or more mermaids across the reels and players will be entered into the free spins feature. In this game, you will receive 10 free spins of the same value as your last stake. Any prizes you win here will also receive a three x multiplier. Free spins can be re-triggered; however, unlike some other games when free spins seem to keep piling in, this should not be expected.
As a bonus game, Mermaids Millions offers a simple pick and choose game. Find any three of the sunken treasure bonus symbols to gain entry into this ocean floor game. Neptune will invite you to choose between three treasure chests, clamshells or barrels to unveil your prize and win coins. The number of picks you are allowed to make is connected to how many bonus game symbols you found on the reels.
Three bonus symbols will give you three picks, four bonus symbols will give you four picks, and five bonus symbols will give you five picks.
Overall
Players new to pokies might be unimpressed with the low-key graphics; however, this is a classic game with a long history. The low to mid volatility makes it ideally suited to players who are just starting out or who are learning how to handle their budget - you can play low and it won’t eat up your coins all at once. The RTP is a very decent 96-97% and a free spins round will usually give back 20 x to 50 x your individual bet. Come on in, the water’s fine.
