Who knew the deep blue sea hides 10,000x your line bet?

Still a favourite with many online slots players, this Playtech Great Blue slot machine takes you on an underwater adventure of stacked wilds and multiplying free spins.

One of the older Playtech games to grace our mobile and desktop casino screens, this Great Blue slot game might not have the detailed graphics and sounds you find in newer fares, but don’t let that put you off from experiencing a truly thrilling game.

Set deep under the ocean, in these blue depths you’ll find fish, sea horses, starfish, turtles and sharks all mixed in with the bubbly A – 9 symbols across 5 reels and 25 pay lines.

On each win the higher paying sea-creature symbols animate, but it’s the orca wild symbol, and the clam scatter symbols, that will captivate your attention.

Mostly because when you find 5 wild symbols on a pay line and you can win 10,000 times your line bet.

However, if you don’t think that possible, then rest assured that you’ll also get a 2x multiplier on any wins with a wild. Add that it comes stacked across all five reels, giving you more opportunities at getting a winning combination, and you have no cause to complain.

A high volatility slot with big limits

The reason that this Great Blue video slot appeals to so many players is down to more than just the fun bubbly theme.

The fact that you can bet from as little as 0.25 per spin all the way up to a massive 2,500 cash per spin, helps bring folks from all walks of life. Though if you can spin 2,500 in one spin, we’d like your number.

However, a word of warning about this is a highly volatile game. Which means that in the base game you will see your balance decrease as you get little wins that aren’t enough to recuperate your bet, to periods of nothing at all, as you go in search of the free spin games and those 5 wilds.

A little experience goes a long way here, so make sure you use the full range of betting option to budgeting wisely for that moment when you reach those free spin games.

Much like the equally brutal 300 shields from  NextGen, the Great Blue slot is an all or nothing game. Orca’s aren’t called killer whales for nothing.

But let’s not kill the buzz of this slot so early on. Because you’ll love the 33 free spins, with up to 15x multiplier, that produce some truly astonishing wins.

Win up to 33 free spins with 15x multipliers

These are no ordinary free spin games. We regularly get at least x8 multiplier with 15 free spins.

And so far, since playing this Great Blue slot online, we rarely win less than 100x our bet during the free games.

Perhaps we are simply lucky. Or, perhaps, this game likes to pay out big to reward you for your patience.

How do you trigger the free spins? You’ll need to find 3 or more of the pearl clams scatter symbol and you are instantly rewarded with 8 free spins and a 2x multiplier.

It get’s even better. You are taken to a mini pick me game before you start spinning.

Pick 2 of the 5 clam shells that are presented to you and you can win more free spins (up to 33) and more multipliers (up to 15x). On many occasion we have received 15 more spins and x8 or x10 extra.

And it’s this bonus game where you will get the huge wins of this game.

Line up the stacked wilds and high paying symbols in just the right way and then multiply that by a potentially huge 8x or 10x and you are looking of wins upwards of 150x your bet.

Great Blue mobile slot on Android and iOS

That’s right. You can also play this Great Blue slot machine on your mobile phone or tablet.

It gives you the same great thrills as the online version, and the opportunity to play where ever you are.

You’ll find the same five reels and 25 pay lines with all your fishy friends included.

Why play the Great Blue slot online?

At first we were a little sceptical when we opened up this game.

We prefer highly graphical games that shine, like the Playtech Marvel slots, or even the likes of NetEnt.

But the sounds and graphics didn’t impress us. However, we spun anyway as we had heard of the great potential for some colossal wins.

And we are glad we did. The multiplying stacked wilds, the free spin games and those huge multipliers definitely get the heart racing and can turn an intensely worried frown upside down.

It doesn’t have the highest return to player rate (RTP) at just 94.25%, but we found the free spin games easy enough to trigger.

All scepticism was thrown out the window as the game play kept us spinning for longer.

Overall, if you like hard hitting video slots, like to bet big on high limit slots, and fancy a little risk then there’s no better game than this Great Blue slot online or on mobile.
