Ariana Slot Review (Free Game Demo and Bonuses)

Blondy Ariana teaches how to win!

Ariana Slot is a classic game by Microgaming, which will plunge you into unexplored sea life. This slot is popular among players, but what has made it so famous? The design is pretty simple, but what is not simple is the bonus game with 15 free spins, which can be retriggered. The bonus round is even more rewarding with the expanding feature, where you can have all the grid filled up with 1 symbol, even with wilds. Ariana is generous and can bring you big wins from the depth of the sea.

Ariana Slot can be called one of the classic Microgaming games. 25 paylines, 5 reels, and 3 rows; can bring you an incredible gambling experience, paying the wins left-to-right. There are two groups of symbols, but we’ll talk about them in the next paragraph.

The RTP is rather average - 95% - but you still can win up to 300,000 coins playing this slot. The volatility is low-medium, so you’ll see more small wins, and they will appear pretty often. Read the rest of this review to find out more.

Features and Bonuses

We can’t tell you, that Ariana Slot is full of unique features, but there are some very rewarding ones. Starting with the wild, the word “Ariana,” which substitutes for all the symbols, except the Scatter, a Sea Star. This pretty star pays multiplies your total bet and adds it to regular payline wins. Moreover, 3, 4, or 5 scatters activate a bonus game - 15 free spins.

This bonus round would have been too simple if not for the Expanding feature. This feature is active during the bonus round and regular game, but acts differently:

Regular game: Any full symbol stack on reel 1 expands all matching high symbols (listed in the “Visual and Sounds” section) on the other reels. The main condition for expanding is that they should be a part of winning combination;
Bonus round: Any full symbol stack on reel 1 expands all matching high symbols (listed in the “Visual and Sounds” section) plus Wilds on the other reels. The main condition is the same as in the base game.

One more pleasant bonus, is that Ariana is stacked on the first reel, during the free spins round. Just imagine, that it’s very easy to fill all the grid with one of the symbols, with the help of those expanding features. It may bring you incredible wins in no time.

Ui, visuals and sounds

Ariana slot can offer the symbols of a senior league (Alga, Treasure Chest, The Depth of the Sea, and blondy Ariana) and bush league (letters and numbers). In general, the design is good enough for a slot of this age. The marine theme is calming and appealing. There are even simple, but nice animations.

The sounds are generic, and in a regular game you’ll feel like in a casino full of slot machines. Only bonus game has nice background music.
