Polar Explorer Slot Review 2024

Polar Explorer

Polar Explorer is a 5 reel, 25 payline progressive video slot from Real Time Gaming. This slot includes features such as scatter symbols, wild symbols and free spins. The days when the bravest of men would venture out on the high seas to explore the Artic still exist today. This slot pays tribute to the early explorers and the challenges they faced let alone the wonderment they experienced in what was uncharted territory.

The symbols and images all have an artic frost attached to them and display well against the icy background that is seen behind the reels. The cold and barren water and landscape also are seen above the reels leaving you with an impression of what it must have been like to survive in such a cold and unforgiving place. The slot symbols include a brass compass, a seal, a whale and a polar bear. The explorer symbol and ship are your feature symbols. Each offers a glimpse into the reality of the the artic and those who are able to not only survive in it but thrive in it.

The Explorer symbol is wild and this brave fellow will substitute the other symbols. The Explorer also pays out a coin win starting when two of the Explorer logos are found on a payline that is active. With each additional logo the amount it pays will increase. The maximum for this is 5000 coins. As the maximum coin size is $5 it equates to a win of $25,000 if max bet is made when all five line up on a payline.

The Ship will be your scatter for this adventure. Its job is to reward you for your bravery and accomplishments with a scatter award. This starts at two times the amount wagered for three scatters and will increase to 200 times for five scatters.

There are three different series of free spins that can be won in Polar Explorer. These are triggered when a snowflake appears across reels 2, 3 and reel 4. You will win either the Explorer, the Discovery or the Hidden Treasure bonus.

If you win the Explorer bonus you will win five free games. During the free games both reels 4 and 5 are wild. The feature can be triggered again should you get three of the scatter symbols on the remaining reels. The Discovery bonus awards eight free games. While these free games are being played at minimum of one Explorer symbol will be present on one of the reels. The scatter can retrigger the free games in this bonus game as well but only twice. The Hidden Treasure bonus game will see you off to an ice cave where you will shoot treasure chests to reveal bonus symbols. You may win up to three bonus symbols, which will appear as wilds on the reels during the 8 free games this bonus game also awards. The free games may also be retriggered by three or more of the scatter symbol.

Polar Explorer comes with a Feature Guarantee. If after 125 spins you have not triggered the frère spins they will auto trigger for you and select at random one of the free spin series that is available.
