New IGT Megajackpots Slot Ocean Belles Out On 15th August 2019

It’s been a while since we’ve been excited about new IGT slot games, but we are excited about this one.

Mostly it’s because of the theme, a little bit is because this is one studio that can still surprise us, but mostly it’s because this is a new Megajackpots slot, which means you can win a cool million, with enough luck.

And any slot machine that can turn you into a millionaire is worth looking into because there’s nothing that gets our motor running like the idea that we can win enough to blow off work for the rest of the year.

Hey, we love our job, but if you could take a year-long vacation around the world… wouldn’t you?

Everything you need to know about Ocean Belles slot

Talking about having a vacation, how about choosing the most glamourous boat in the ocean with some of the most beautiful crew around?

If you don’t know who renowned artist Gil Elvgren is, then you almost certainly know his art. If nothing else, think 1950s Coca-Cola pin-up, and chances are you would have seen a Gill Elvgren art.

He is the king of vintage glamour and we have to admit that we love it, hook, line and sinker. We loved it when they use his art as they did in the IGT’s Western Belles online slot review, and it works well here.

Set against a pink sunset sky on the deck of a beautiful cruise liner, your beautiful blonde captain and her lovely crew of beauties welcome you aboard this free-spirited vacation.

In short, what we have here is something that might be truly great. But let’s break down the details and see what we can decipher.

Do we need another Megajackpot online slot?

There’s a few. There’s the Cleopatra Megajackpot, there are the Siberian Storm Megajackpots, then Golden Goddess jackpot slot, the Star Lanterns Megajackpots…

And a few more on top.

The idea is that these are all part of one mega jackpot pot that hit usually around 750,000 in cash and 1 million. They can hit on any game, in any casino, anywhere, at any time.

The Megajackpots in Ocean Belles will be part of the same massive progressive jackpot pot, meaning that it will grow that pot a little faster, but also adds another game to the chances of someone else triggering the cash prizes.

How do you win the Megajackpot? You need to collect 5 Golden Kiss symbols, one on each of the reels, and the more you bet the higher your chances of hitting that pot.

It’s a one of a kind jackpot slot

So unlike some of the other Megajackpot machines, this is a completely new and original online slot game.

With so many of these IGT jackpot games, they tend to be based on other games that have come before. So there is an original Cleopatra slot review you can read, as there is a Golden Goddess slot and so on…

But there is no Ocean Belles slot you can play that doesn’t feature the Megajackpot. That can be both a good and a bad thing.

The good news is that this is totally original. The bad news is that jackpot slots tend to have lower Return to Player rates (RTP) than we would like –  a very low 92.50% for one.

Which makes it almost impossible to play and win big, but that’s not the point. The point is to play long enough to win the jackpot.

It will be easy on the eye and easy on the wallet

The RTP is low. So it’s likely this Megajackpots Ocean Belles online slot will probably get 3 stars review at the most when it’s released on the 15th of August.

But the thing that we can’t ignore is the beautiful theme and winning those big jackpots. The fact that you get wild reels and free re-spins should be enough to keep things interesting on the base game, as long as you know that the wins you’re playing for are that big progressive pot of gold.

Not everyone will walk away a winner, but we suspect this holiday cruise will make you smile anyway.
