Two of the most frequent themes chosen for slot games are underwater, and diamonds, so the new slot from Play’n Go, Mermaid’s Diamond, doesn’t feel incredibly unique from the outset.However, Play’n Go have proven before that they can take a popular theme and moving it into an entirely new direction, so, is this something that manage here too?
About the slot
A five-reel slot with variable rows and 720 ways to win, the reels here are adorned with various jewels and underwater images.The diamond, and the red, blue, and green gems are the higher value symbols here, while the low values are represented by a flatfish, a squid, a starfish, and more.The mermaid symbol acts as the wild here and will substitute for all symbols but the treasure chest scatter symbol.The graphics and animations are effective here, perhaps not the best you’ll see, but a cartoon-style theme makes the slot work, and the soundtrack brings it all together with style.This isn’t Play’n Go’s prettiest slot, but that bar has been set high, and Mermaid’s Diamond certainly isn’t unattractive.
Games
The Trident Wilds feature can be a useful one here, and can trigger randomly during both the base game and the free spins round, with one or two wild symbols added to the reels to create bigger wins.The free spins feature is the big one here, however. Land five treasure chest scatter symbols anywhere on the reels, and you will enter a mini-game where picking a treasure chest triggers up to 25 free spins.Any diamonds landing on the reels during this feature will be collected, once you have five or more, one reel will turn completely wild for the duration of the feature.A simple game, but one that can lead to some big wins in the free spin feature, Mermaid’s Diamond is worth a try if you’re after something simple.
