Theme and graphics
Microgaming has long been a leader among video slot manufacturers. Rock the Boat is one of the company’s classic games. The main character of this slot is the legendary Elvis. He is also the Wild and will help you make combinations. There is no background, but behind the reels you can see Elvis on a boat in front of a lighthouse. Another thing worth mentioning is the awesome soundtrack that accompanies you during the game. Each time you win, you’ll hear a guitar play reminiscent of Elvis’ music. The slot loads instantly and runs without any problems whatsoever. You don’t need to download any software, just your browser. If you’re looking for an exciting traditional video slot and aren’t intimidated by the very high variance, be sure to check out Rock the Boat.
Gameplay and Paylines
The highest paying symbol in Rock the Boar is, of course, Elvis himself. Next comes the lighthouse: you can get between 100 and 200 coins per line with it, depending on how many coins you put in. The next most expensive icons are the triple and double ‘BAR’. These will bring you 50 or 100 and 25 or 50 coins respectively when betting 1 or 2 coins. Guitar combinations will bring you 20 coins when playing one coin and 40 when playing two coins. Winnings for single ‘BAR’ are 10 or 20 coins respectively. In addition, you will receive payouts for 2 guitars (5 or 10 coins) as well as combinations of any mixed ‘BAR’ icons (3 or 6 coins). Finally, a single guitar on the reels will bring you 2 or 4 coins depending on the number of coins in the bet.
In Rock the Boat there is only one winning line, but you’ll still have more than enough chances to win on each spin. You have to catch 3 symbols in a line to get your payout.
Pay attention to Elvis – this is the best symbol in this game. A full line of these icons will bring you up to 1600 coins.
Bonus features
As Rock the Boat is a retro slot, there aren’t any separate bonus features. You won’t be distracted by free spins, bonus games with a separate screen, etc. In that respect, Rock the Boat is ideal for those who like traditional slot machines. However, the Wild symbol is present here. He is represented by Elvis and is the highest paying icons: for a line with him you can get 1600 and 800 coins at a rate of 2 and 1 coin respectively. In addition, payouts for combinations containing one Wild are doubled, while combinations containing two Elvises are quadrupled. Unfortunately, there is no auto-play feature in Rock the Boat. Each time you have to manually press the spin button and watch the reels spin.
Jackpots
Betting ranges from $0.25 to $10, with a maximum jackpot of $8,000.
