INTRODUCTION

Get your diving suits on, because 1×2 Gaming is about to take us on an adventure deep under the sea, where we will meet the beautiful world of fish, turtles and mermaids. Under the Waves is a five-reel, 20-payline video slot that offers two additional features. Look for Shipwreck Scatters to trigger up to 18 freebies, or land 3 or more Treasure Chest Scatters to start the Pick Bonus Game, where you get instant wins. The lovely Mermaid is the Wild that substitutes for all regular symbols. Playable from $0.20 per spin, the 2019 release boasts crisp graphics and a fitting soundtrack.

HOW TO PLAY UNDER THE WAVES

The 1×2 Gaming title will present a colourful underwater world, inhabited by all sorts of sea creatures. A smiling Shark is not seen that often, and you will also meet a Sea Turtle, Squid, Blowfish, Octopus, Clown Fish, Angel Fish and lots of other fish that live in the sea. The Mermaid is the Wild that can substitute for all regular symbols, and there are also two Scatters on the offer. A Shipwreck Scatter triggers the Free Spins feature, while the Treasure Chest Scatter triggers the Pick Bonus Game.

The rules of the game are as easy as breathing, even though it is difficult to breathe underwater. The 2019 release features five reels, three rows, and benefits from 30 fixed paylines, which pay left to right, starting from the far left reel. Three of a kind is the minimum for landing payouts.

Betting is fixed at 20 coins per spin, but the coin value can be altered, meaning that players can wager as low as $0.20 and as high as $100 per single spin. To speed the reels up a bit, enable Quickspin mode. Once you get tired of hitting the Spin button, visit Autoplay and activate up to 99 automatic spins.

UNDER THE WAVES (1X2 GAMING): CASINOBLOKE’S VERDICT

We can really say that we had our fair share of video slots themed after the big blue sea, and Under the Waves offers nothing new when it comes to the overall visual appearance and the special features incorporated, so we are concerned that the 2019 release will have a hard time finding its place under the sun. The Free Spins feature and the Pick Bonus Game are quite entertaining and rewarding, but it takes time to trigger features. Taking everything under consideration, the 1×2 Gaming title is nothing more than an average video slot.
