Slot Review: 7 Oceans

There is a right way and a wrong way to “do” a no-frills online slot title, in our opinion. In a recent review, we complained about at least one casino software company using the guise of an old-school fruit machine to cop out and produce a really boring title. That is not the case with 7 Oceans. Named after the seven major bodies of water on Earth (can you name them all?), this simple, little game is absolutely perfect for players who maybe are just dipping their toes into the whole internet fruit machine thing for the first time, or those who appreciate the clean, uncluttered look of a title that sticks to the basics and does them well. This three-reel, single-payline punter from Microgaming won’t make you a fortune or leave you reeling from the dizzying array of features it offers, but we like it, anyway.

The 7 Oceans online slot game features classic fruit machine symbols of sevens, BAR icons, and clown fish – the kind that many people call “Nemos” after the now-famous Disney character – on the reels. Visually, the game is very colorful and organized. The pay tables are concise, and very clearly demonstrate the payouts for each combination, based on coin size. Bets range from twenty-five cents to five dollars, with maximum coin size of three. That makes the maximum jackpot twenty-five thousand dollars.

7 Oceans doesn’t feature any wild symbols, scatters, multipliers, video animation, or bonus games. If you enjoy an online slot with the basics, or enjoy the soothing sensation of playing a game that surrounds you with crystal blue water, this could be a very enjoyable diversion for you!
