Neptune’s Quest

It lurks in the deep, hidden with its fortune intact for thousands of years. But now, thanks to WMS and PartyCasino, the riches of Neptune’s Quest slot are yours for the taking, as big wins coupled with tantalizing bonus features create the ideal online slot atmosphere.

Neptune is a Roman god, and the protector of fresh water bodies and the sea. He also serves as the central character of this title. The theme is all aquatic, resembling the underwater city of Atlantis. The background to the unique pay table is this previously mentioned aquatic city, and it must be said there could perhaps have been a little more video animation, such as fish swimming around.

The reel system is a little difficult to understand. The first 2 reels are split to essentially form 4 reels. The next 3 reels are standard and consist of 6 rows. The important thing to note is that there are 100 paylines, which is generous of WMS. It is also mentioned that the maximum jackpot achievable is £250,000.00. High rollers will find this their ideal game in terms of thrills, as the maximum bet is £250 and is what you’ll need to be wagering especially if the aim is to take home Neptune’s treasure.

This underwater world has a RTP ratio of 96.39% which is up there with the higher rewarding titles, while Neptune’s Quest online slot is a medium variance game, so you won’t be left bobbing on the surface for long periods of time with no winnings.

Interestingly this game appears to only be available on desktop and not mobile – not ideal in modern times. Expect this to change however, as mobile demand always leads to adaptations.

Feature Symbols

Due probably to the large number of paylines WMS decided to add a fair amount of symbols. There are 11 regular symbols in total which most players will find a bit high for their liking. Regardless, they start with the lower paying symbols being playing cards J, Q, K and A, all carrying the same value. The symbols then move into the theme of the game, where you’ll find a starfish, a shell, a fish, a trident, a water bull, a mermaid and the mighty Neptune paying the big bucks.

The wild symbol is represented by a giant squid and will substitute all symbols to create a winning payline. The wild also carries god-like value, as it has the same worth as the Neptune symbol should 5 line up across the reels. The scatter is an image of the mystical aquatic city, and is your ticket to the bonus features.

Bonuses and Jackpots

Neptune’s Quest has a very respectable bonus feature in the form of free spins. There are 2 tiers to the free spins, and also 2 different ways you can trigger them. The first way of going about this is by landing 4 matching symbols in 1 or both reel columns. The second method is by landing a scatter symbol on reels 3, 4 and 5. Either way you trigger the free spins, Neptune will award the player 5 free spins plus £250.

The second tier is worth substantially more, but the way to trigger it is similar to the first. You’ll need to land 4 of the same symbol in 1 or both reel columns, but you will also need to land a scatter symbol on reels 3, 4 and 5 at the same time. Should this be the case then the player will receive a tsunami of 20 free spins and a majestic £2500.

During the free spins it is possible to receive an extended wild. This is essentially a cluster of wild symbols that stretches across reels 3, 4 and 5. It proves very effective in boosting the free spins potential. It’s also a treat by WMS that all symbols having triggered the free spins will remain in place for the duration of the spins.

Play Neptune’s Quest Slot at PartyCasino

The reel system of Neptune’s Quest online slot will take some getting used to, but once you get the hang of it you’ll actually notice very little difference to traditional reel layouts. The graphics are also a little behind some titles on the market, while no mobile compatibility means a major mark down. However, desktop users will really enjoy the title once they get to the free spins. Symbols remaining in place that triggered the spins mean the spins are always high returning, and if you can land the 20 free spins with a £2500 cash prize then it will really feel as if Neptune is smiling down on you.
