Slot Review: Life’s a Beach
It’s about
that time of year again. The humdrum, freezing days of winter are
upon us (in the Northern Hemisphere, anyway!), and it’s getting to
be the time when everyone is dreaming of escaping to someplace
warmer. Less clothing, fewer sick people hacking germs on you at
every opportunity, more fun and ways to stay entertained… the perks
of warmer weather are all but endless, really. That’s what makes the
Life’s a Beach online slot game so very appealing. One spin of the
reels and you are transported to the lazy, sunshine-y days of
summertime bliss.
Life’s a Beach is a five-reel, twenty-payline online slot game by
the incomparable Microgaming. Coin values start at one cent and
range upwards to fifty cents. You can play this game as a penny slot
if you wish, or bet the max coin value of four hundred for the
high-roller experience. On a maxed-out bet, that’s two hundred
dollars per spin. The jackpot is twelve thousand coins, which
amounts to six thousand dollars if you are playing the highest coin
value and size. There is also a free practice mode for those who’d
prefer to take a crack at playing this game without sinking their
bankroll into it right away.
Poker symbols appear on the reels, along with such ubiquitous beach
items as the sunglasses, tanning lotion, and CD player. The
kiss-blowing beach babe is the wild symbol, and the hunky lifeguard
is the scatter symbol for this online slots game. Get at least three
of these studs on the screen on any one spin to activate the Beach
babe Bonus round. Choose four sun umbrellas, and see if you find a
babe underneath! (Don’t worry, you’ll get a little cash even if you
don’t!)
