Play Under the Sea (Betsoft) Slot

Under the Sea (Betsoft) Review

You’d expect BetSoft to take just about any theme and make an amazing slot out of it. They do not let us down with Under the Sea. This is not one of their most elaborate slots, with solid game play and just a couple of feature games. The animations and 3D graphics are the strong point. For me it is the attention to detail in things like the underwater plants wafting and bubbles going over the reels which make the difference. One thing which always baffles me is why so many cartoon fish have a perfect set of human teeth? Guess that one will have to remain a mystery – for this slot at least!

Everything about the way the graphics look is characteristically BetSoft. The sea shimmers above the reels, the plants wave gently on their coral reef beds and bubbles float over reels full of cartoon fish. Those fish have a ring of familiarity - this is more the general design that being specific copies of well-known underwater animated movies, though these could easily be characters in Finding Nemo.

When you hit a win, each type of fish has a break out animation sequence which builds out from the reels. In addition there are pearls, ship wrecks and a blonde lady (could be a mermaid, though you only get to see her face). Upbeat Caribbean style music plays in the background and the reels stop to what sounds like someone hitting a xylophone. When you hit the bonus games, the music changes – though the general vibe stays the same. There are also bubble and general underwater noises in place.

There is one free spins game and one pick-em type game involving treasure chests in this slot. These do not trigger too often, though the prizes can be good when they do come in.
