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!)
