There are few famous stories that have not been turned into slot games at some point, with varying levels of success, so it’s something of a surprise that it took until 2017 for Herman Melville’s epic story, Moby Dick, to join the party.The wait is over, however, as Rabcat/Microgaming have created a slot based on the tale of the giant whale.
About the slot
A stunning looking slot game, the background sees a view of a stunning ocean, with Captain Ahab stood, prepared, with a harpoon in his hand.The symbols on the reels include Moby dick, Captain Ahab, an anchor, and more related symbols, while the lower values are made up of the traditional 10, J, Q, K, and A.The artwork here is stunning, bold, cartoon-like images with even the card face symbols designed to match the concept of the game.Visually, at least, this five-reel, 25 fixed payline slot is a step up for Rabcat, and that isn’t to suggest that their games were of a low quality before!
Gameplay
The Freezing Wins feature means that a winning combination will freeze in place and gift a respin, if any additional symbols are then added to that winning combination, they will freeze, and this will continue until no new symbols are added to the win.A convenient perk of the Freezing Wins bonus is that it makes it easier to land scatters which trigger the free spins feature. Land four or more symbols for between 10 and 20 free spins (20 is for seven or more symbols) and up to three wild symbols will appear on the reels during the feature, helping with wins, while the Freezing Wins feature is also active, the free spins can be retriggered by landing additional scatters during the feature as well.A slot as epic as the story it is based on, Moby Dick is genuinely impressive.
