• The WILD (pays x125 for 5 identical symbols): it appears anywhere on the reels and substitutes for any symbol except the Coin Scatter and Free Spin.

• Coin Scatter symbol: it appears anywhere on the reels and allows you to win cash when at least 3 of them are combined.

• Free Spin symbol (pays x1 for 3 identical symbols): it only appears on reels 2, 3 and 4 and triggers the free spins and multiplier wheel when 3 of them are combined.

The different connections in Silver Seas

There are many connections available in Silver Seas. Indeed, there are 20 paylines, which you can see in the image below. Whether it's lines, diagonals or simple buttons, there are many ways to win. You need to line up between 3 and 5 symbols from left to right to get a win, except for the Coin Scatter which pays anywhere.

How Silver Seas bonuses work

There are two kinds of bonuses in Silver Seas. The first is the Coin Scatter: when at least 3 of them land on the reels at the same time, an immediate win is added to the balance. This can range from 1x the original bet (for 3 Coin Scatters) to a payout of 2000x the bet if 9 Coin Scatters are landed.

When 3 Free Spin symbols land on the reels on a single spin, the free spins and multiplier wheel is triggered. A spin on the wheel is awarded. This wheel offers a number of free spins (between 10 and 30) with a win multiplier (x2 or x3). If 3 Free Spin symbols land on the reels again during the free spins, the feature is re-triggered with the same number of free spins and the same multiplier applied.

Our opinion about Silver Seas

Microgaming, which has produced a number of slot machines, is continuing its success by offering a very classic machine with average volatility and a jackpot capped at 6,000 times the initial bet. With Silver Seas, the Gold Coin studio delivers a slot with good graphics and interesting bonuses, offering quick cash wins or free spins with multipliers. There is nothing innovative, however, and the game can quickly become boring.
