Bright blue reels are set against purple-hued walls and plants, giving the game a colourful, but not over the top style. The high-card symbols are all given a subtle Arabian makeover and return prizes of between 5x, 10x, or 50x the line bet equivalent if the 9, 10, J, or Q land across the reels, to 5x, 15x, or 75x if you see the K or A across a payline.

The carpet, lion, a blue jewel and Jasmine all create the middle-value winning lines, but Jafar and the lamp will only need to be seen on reels 1 and 2, with the mean-looking bad guy being worth between 2x and 250x the line bet, depending on how many reels he’s on, and the lamp returning the best prizes of between 5x and 500x.

The lamp is also a useful wild symbol, so if players have a gap in a run of matching symbols across a payline and it’s in the right place, it will be able to substitute and complete the combination, or extend wins across extra reels.

A view of the city of Agraba (if I remember my Disney films correctly), is the scatter symbol, which can stop in any places, paying out 200x the line stake when 3 or more are seen at once. It will then magically transport you to a free spins bonus round, where you will initially have 12 extra games, although any 3 or more scatters landing in a free spin will retrigger them.

During each of these spins, a random reel, or possibly a couple of them, will fill up with an expanding wild symbol, with the lamp first making an appearance and then a nice animation turning the reel into a view of the Genie. He will hopefully have the power to complete a winning line, or maybe even several when he turns up, although he’s not certain to do this.

A special feature found across the Belatra Games range is the Wheel of Fortune that you get to spin once you have earned enough credits. It’s a simple round that awards either an instant prize to cash out, of if you are lucky, a progressive jackpot payout.

There’s two gamble games available to play in this and other Belatra Games slot machines, and you can either double a win by correctly choosing if a playing card will be higher or lower than the one revealed by the dealer, or the other option is to double or quadruple a win by picking the correct colour or suit of a face-down card.

Each of these rounds can be repeated up to 5 times, or until the gamble limit is reached, but of course, there’s always the risk that you will make a wrong choice along the way, losing not just anything gained in the round, but also the initial win. Fortunately, they are just optional games of risk, but many gamblers like to try them out, even if it’s just occasionally.

This isn’t the first online casino slot machine to be based on the tales of the Arabian Nights, and we’re sure it won’t be that last, but it’s a nice game that’s a good entry into the genre and comes with some reliable bonus features.

Talking of reliability, like all Belatra Games slots, it’s been fully tested for fair play by independent companies, so you can be sure that results are randomly generated, and the returns are going to be generous. It’s also mobile-optimised and even available at land-based casinos, so you could find the Arabian Nights video slot online, on your smartphone or turning up at your local casino.
