Cool As Ice Slot Game Review
The weathermen are always talking about a cold winter coming up. That'd follow the cold spring, summer and autumn that we always have to endure. Well we can get a hint of what it'd be like by playing the 'Cool As Ice' slot from Genesis Gaming who put out some great slot games.
I'm really impressed with the graphics in this game, they're bright, cheerful and always put a smile on my face. This is a five reel and 25 payline game and that number is fixed. That means the only decision you have is how much you want to stake on each line. This goes all the way from £0.01 to £125 so the total cost goes from £0.25 to £3125. Simply choose a stake that you feel comfortable with and can afford to lose.
The symbols include a walrus, a penguin and a polar bear all of whom have sunglasses. There's also an eskimo who doesn't just have some sunglasses but a fish too, hence his big smile. In addition there's the nine to Ace symbols, a tad lazy but at least they join in the 'fun' by having a frozen look.
There are two wilds in this game, the first is a hole in the ice symbol and this can substitute for other symbols to get you some wins. Keep an eye out for the Iceberg Wild symbol. This only appears on the third reel and when it does appear it expands to fill the whole reel. That really gives you a good chance of getting some winning combinations. Even more so it, as it can sometimes to, it spreads to the neighbouring reels (reels two and four).
Appearing only on the second and fourth reels is the Ice symbol. It's fun when this appears because an eskimo comes out and has a bit of a wander across the reels and breaks the ice with his ice pick. This will reveal a symbol which, if you're lucky, will create a winning combination.
This is a straightforward game to play and you can decide to go for the autoplay feature which is between five and 25 automated spins. There's a lot going on in the game so take a good look through the paytable first to acquaint yourself with all the rules to the game.
Bonus Games
I love the symbol that has the husky dog with his big tongue hanging out. If you can get this on reel one and the sled on the same row on the fifth reel, this triggers the husky racing feature. This has three dogs pulling sleds across the rows and while doing so will create some wilds. This hopefully creates some wins for you.
We all love some free spins and in 'Cool As Ice' you can get some if three of the Cool As Ice scatter symbols appear on the second, third or fourth reels (the only reels they can be found on). When that happens you suddenly find yourself in an igloo and your task is to choose from the sunglasses that are there. Each offers a number of free spins or multipliers. You can keep choosing the sunglasses untii you pick the pair that is hiding the 'Collect' symbol which gives you four more spins and then away you go and good luck. It's possible to retrigger the free spins awarded which is really helpful.
Conclusion
There's so much happening in this game. Whether it's the eskimo smashing the ice, the husky sled racing or the free spins, there are plenty of chances to get some good wins in this game.
