The objective of playing Sinbad’s Golden Voyage slot is to spin the reels and match symbols on the paylines. Sinbad’s Golden Voyage has a unique reel set and special features that set it apart from other slots and traditional casino games, such as online blackjack and roulette.
How to Play:
Info Pages:
Sinbad’s Golden Voyage Info Pages are accessed through the Info button on the bottom left of the screen. You can move between the different pages using the arrows on the bottom right of the screen, or by clicking the page titles running along the top of the screen. Click on Back To Reels to return to the main game screen. The Info Pages are shown below:
Paytable – this page will display the payouts for all Line Wins with your Total Bet.
Stacked Symbols – this page explains how the Stacked Symbols can appear on different reels.
Free Spins – this page describes the rules, awarding and special features of Leviathan Free Spins.
Paylines – this page shows illustrations of the position on the reels of all 164 paylines.
Paylines:
The slot has 164 paylines that are always active. Paylines work left to right. A Line Win consists of matching symbols falling adjacently on consecutive paylines (3 or more).
About Payouts:
All possible payouts for Line Wins are shown on the Paytable. The values shown on the Paytable are linked to the Total Bet; if you increase the Total Bet the payouts will also increase.
Only the highest Line Win will be paid on each payline. Multiple wins on different paylines are quite common; these are added together and paid as a total win.
All Line Wins must begin on Reel 1, with matching adjacent symbols working left to right across the reels.
Wild Symbol:
The Wild Symbol (Sinbad) can substitute for all other symbols (except Bonus Scatter Symbol) to form the best possible Line Win.
If a Wild Symbol lands anywhere on the reels after a spin, it will expand to fill the entire reel.
Scatter Symbol:
The Scatter Symbols appear on Reels 2, 4 and 6 only. They do not have any payout of their own. Instead, if three Scatter Symbols appear in any position on these reels you will be awarded Leviathan Free Spins (explained in detail in a section below).
Stacked Symbols/Reel Layout:
Sinbad’s Golden Voyage does not use a standard slot reel-set. There are six reels and the number of rows on each reel differs.
In addition, some of the symbols are stacked. This means that they cover more than one row on the reel. Again, the size of the Stacked Symbols varies from reel to reel.
The number of rows and size of the Stacked Symbols on each reel are shown in the table below:
Reel: | Number of Rows: | Number of Rows covered by Stacked Symbol: |
1 | 6 | 2 |
2 | 7 | 3 |
3 | 6 | 4 |
4 | 7 | 5 |
5 | 6 | 6 |
6 | 7 | 7 |
Leviathan Free Spins:
If you are awarded Leviathan Free Spins by landing three Scatter Symbols in a spin, the following occurs:
Reel: | Number of Rows: | Number of Rows covered by Stacked Symbol: |
1 | 7 | 7 |
2 | 6 | 6 |
3 | 7 | 5 |
4 | 6 | 4 |
5 | 7 | 3 |
6 | 6 | 2 |
