The Great Voyages Slot

Overview

It was not just the Europeans that were interested in exploring the world in the Middle Ages Apparently, many Asian explorers and adventurers were sailing around the world too. The Great Voyage is an online slot game by KA Gaming inspired by these events.

Graphics & Design

One of the first things that you will notice about this slot game is the graphics. The background of this slot includes an animated image of a few ships sailing at the blue sea. You can also see a sky covered in clouds. On the unusual set of reels and lines, you’ll probably notice carefully designed, cartoon-like icons.

Gameplay

Another thing that makes The Great Voyage interesting is the matrix. You will find 6 reels and 192 ways to win in this game. Every reel has a different number of rows – 2-3-4-5-6-7. There are eleven unique basic symbols in this online slot – a banner, four playing card suits in specific colors, a compass and a map, a castle, a giraffe, a lion, a ship and the Chinese explorer (Zheng He). All symbols, except for the compass and the map (which is also a scatter symbol) pay prizes when you land three or more matching symbols on any active line. Of course, Zheng He is the most valuable basic symbol.

But, the most valuable symbol of all is the wild symbol which looks like a scroll. This symbol pays excellent prizes, but what’s more important is that it substitutes for missing basic symbols as long as it can help you create a winning line.  If you land three scatter symbols or more, you will activate a free spins mode with up to 50 free spins. In the free spins mode, the Zheng He symbol can become a stacked symbol. If the symbol fills an entire reel, that reel will become a wild reel.
