Nemo’s Voyage Slot

Nemo's Voyage is a slot created by WMS Gaming based on 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea by French author Jules Verne – it has 5 reels, 4 rows and 40 fixed paylines and can be played from 40p to £200 per spin. This is the first slot WMS have produced that uses the Phantom EFX engine (which has been used predominantly for social games available on Facebook for example.



Some of the symbols used are treasure maps, sharks, fish with teeth, Captain Nemo and a deep-sea diver. The game looks quite impressive and places you inside the Nautilus. There's even a monster octopus that looks like it wants to come inside! Welcome aboard the before-its-time submarine it's time to explore the deep waters for hidden treasures.

Nemo's Voyage has 5 wild symbols - they appear at different depths. The lower the submarine goes the best the wild symbols are. Each time you spin, it makes the submarine go deeper undersea. As you know the deeper you get underwater, the bigger the pressure. So check the pressure gauge on the right hand side of the reels because when it gets red you'll get back up fast. You'll feel the pressure yourself as you see that gauge start to shake! There is also a depth indicator that displays each level and what wild symbol you playing with.

The bonus symbol only comes on odd reels (reels 1, 3 and 5). Collect 3 bonus symbols and play 8 free spins where sticky wilds may appear if the octopus’s tentacle throws some ink at the reels. Sticky wilds remain in place for the duration of the feature which can really boosts winnings.

Like I said every spin makes the submarine go deeper. The first level wilds are normal wilds as they replace non-bonus symbols to help you win. Check the gauge, when you reach the next lock multiplier wilds appear, they range from 2x to 3x. The next lock brings up pressure wilds, when they appear on the reels they crush the symbols below and transform them into wilds.

The next level has stacked wilds and finally the last lock uses wild reels. Resist the temptation of increasing your bet to win better amounts with best wilds as the sub goes down because it will bring up the submarine to the surface immediately. As the submarine goes down the pressure increases gradually. An increase pressure symbol makes the pressure go up more rapidly until it gets in the red and forces the submarine to come up. This is done gradually but still quickly, put as many spins as you can with the best wilds in action.

Nemo's Voyage is a high variance slot which means there will be many spins with no wins. Because the wild symbol depth feature is built into the game, you can make as much if not more money during regular play than in free spins. This makes the game quite exciting. It’s definitely unique in the way it works and for that reason I really like it – it also helps that I’ve had some big wins from the feature (just over 300 times my stake a couple of times). If you like volatile slots, you should definitely try Black Knight II and Viking Vanguard which are both brilliant.
