Spinning Luck at View Royal in Colwood
View Royal is a casino slot game developed by unknown studios. While I don’t know who it was designed to be produced from its original creation, I have studied its features and rules thoroughly.
Game Theme
The theme of the View Royal slot machine revolves around an oceanic setting. The background image depicts a serene beach with waves gently rolling in. Players are transported to this tranquil atmosphere while spinning reels filled with various sea creatures. This theme is standard for slots but still manages to convey a sense of calmness.
Game Design
In casino View Royal (Colwood) terms of design, the View Royal slot has 5×3 reels and 25 paylines. These numbers create numerous opportunities for combinations, increasing winning potential without adding too much complexity to gameplay. Each icon or symbol features unique colors that reflect their thematic representation. For instance, fish are depicted in shades ranging from deep blues to bright oranges.
The standard set includes sea creatures (fish), gemstones and card suit icons.
Symbols
While the symbols seem quite straightforward with their designs and names, you’ll find some hidden values beyond just a pleasant design:
-
Low-paying Symbols: Card Suit Icons Card suits act as the lowest paying regular game symbols. They are made out of normal letters from an unknown alphabet set (A-F). Each card suit pays fairly standard for modern slots.
-
High-paying Symbol: Pearl Oyster Pearls inside an oyster, along with a few other high-value combinations and one very unique one – which is quite rare to be found on many machines. The combination of 5 Pearls results in the highest payout according to paytable data analyzed.
Payouts
The payouts for winning combinations are as follows:
- 3 card suit symbols: Pay between .1x (J) and .2x (A) bet.
- Three Pearl Oysters or three shells result in a prize of 5.00, depending on the specific type and your coin value.
Wild Symbols
Some slots have wilds that can take any place to increase payouts.
However, this slot does not contain true Wild symbols but instead an alternative symbol is added for “Pearl” – an oyster which substitutes other symbols like a normal pearl.
The game also lacks traditional Scatter icons. The game’s bonus feature serves the purpose of acting similarly, rewarding players with extra free spins and rewards without a need to land multiple ‘scatters’ anywhere on reels in combination as some slots require.
Bonus Features
There is one special type of Bonus feature present in this slot machine:
- Free Spins When 5 pearls or any oyster symbol appear at least three times, the player earns between 1 (if less than five) and fifteen (if all positions show five Pearl Oysters as symbols which can happen) free spins to play. The game also offers a doubling mechanism with coins, allowing you to multiply rewards by a fixed value.
