Wild Water is a five-reel, 20-payline Net Entertainment online slot that takes place on the Pacific islands and takes gamers back to the early days of the sport of surfing. The game is set in the 1960s and makes no qualms reminding you of it, with outfits that are authentic to the era and even an obligatory surfing hippy to complete the laid back atmosphere.

Before you can start riding the waves alongside the game’s characters, a bet should be picked firsthand. The bet level is controlled with the “Level” selector. The coin size, which goes from 0.01 to 0.5, can be established using the “Coin Value” selector. “Spin” gets the reels to start turning, “Max Bet” spins them at the highest bet and “Autoplay” lets players play for a pre-selected number of times without any interruption.

The game is all set against the backdrop of an island beach scene. There are palm trees, blue skies, and a classic VW Camper Van. A groovy, vintage rock-n-roll tune can be heard playing in the background and it's accompanied with the sound of ocean waves gently splashing against the shore.

Wild Water is one of the simpler slots that gamers can enjoy without any fuss. It is aesthetically pleasing and the soundtrack is fun to listen to. Basic, easy-to-navigate buttons click easily and the display windows keep you on top of all your vital statistics that help your playing strategy: current bet, bet level, coin value and the number of coins you have left to play. A sliding volume control gives you the option to turn the sounds off or on, and Advanced Autoplay settings are easily applied to set the game to your preferences.

There is up to 2,000 times your stake to be won and the big wins will come in the Free Spins feature. The game is laid-back and brings back a lot of nostalgia especially with phrases like “awesome,” and “radical” being said liberally. In all, Wild Water is a very good slot that can really reward you in the Free Spins.

FEATURE SYMBOLS

The unique thing about Wild Water is that all the main symbols are stacked, which means they're complete figures that can cover more than one spot on the reel. It also means that the entire symbol has to be seen over three columns for it to be included in a win. These primary symbols feature five lovely renderings of surfers in retro swimwear.

The highest value symbol is your typical sunglasses-sporting surfer dude, wearing red trunks with a red surfboard in his hand. The next value down is a pretty woman with dark hair clad in an orange swimsuit. The middle-value symbol is a cool guy in yellow standing in front of a yellow surfboard. The next-to-lowest symbol is your classic hippie guy in a mostly green setting, with hip-length black hair, a peace symbol around his neck, and a drum at his feet. Finally, the last symbol is a comely lady in a light blue bikini, leaning against a light blue surfboard.

The highest-paying symbol is the smaller square Golden Surfer. It can appear on any reel, in both the main game and Free Spins, and causes your winnings to add up quickly.

BONUS ROUNDS
