Miami Beach Slots
Katy Perry may have sung a song about California Girls being unforgettable, but she should have talked about Miami, Florida instead - that place is one of the craziest and most stunning places in the US. It’s got a lot more to it than bikinis, swim trunks and hot girls, but who wants to hear about the cultural side of things when playing a slot machine? When we party on down with Wazdan, we do so so that we get the most attractive symbols known to man.
Miami Beach is a 5-reel and 10-payline grid that has several surprises in store for its loyal players. And if that doesn’t tempt you, the two cuties who shake their butts and wink suggestively at the screen just might; we’re not fickle creatures, but we can’t say no to the beauty of women.
Flamingos will eyeball you, ladies will wink at you, dudes will surf past you, and the jackpot will come crashing in with the waves when it's high tide. You’re gonna get wet, but it’ll be well worth it in the end, just get started and find out.
Welcome to Miami
If you’re playing the demo mode, you can afford to figure the controls out at your own pace, with no concern in the world about accidentally wasting your money. But if you’re playing with real cash, you’re best knowing it all before you get started.
For those of you that have never played an online slot machine, or indeed any kind of slot, it’s best to look at the winlines first and decide how many of them you want active. Naturally you’ll start off with the full 10, but these can be decreased down to as little as 1 winline. Having only a single line to focus on may sound like the easier option, but it’s actually the more tedious as less combinations will be successfully matched up.
After you’ve sorted those out, you then have to figure out how much money you want to gamble with; Wazdan are quite a friendly brand to play with when uncertain about the different stake sizes. However, we always suggest to wager only a small amount if it has no massive bearing on the game. In Miami Beach, users can play with any sum of money found between 0.10 and 100 credits.
Users will also be aware of the autoplays available, designed to make gaming a less involved and taxing experience; personally we always try out the automatic spins when they’re given, but you don’t have to if you’d rather not.
Wild Boys, Wild Girls, Wild Waves
There are a lot of features to be unlocked during Miami Beach, which is most unusual for Wazdan because usually they don’t bother with extras, choosing to remain as classic and true to original slots as possible.
The wild symbol is the two girlfriends, and it will move about icons to make way for successful combinations. However, it’ll also expand across the reels when it appears during your free spins, meaning you get more rewards than normal. As for the scatter, that can be triggered upon any of the reels and will reward 10 spins at a time, with all the wins experiencing a x2 multiplier.
Usually this is where Wazdan would end their features and return to the paytable, but instead they’ve included the multiplier symbol. If we’re totally honest, it’s more a combination feature than an individual one, but it was too good not to mention; get the surfboard on the middle reels during the free spins and the multiplier will increase.
The scatter symbol is the most rewarding of the symbols, coming in at a net worth of €50, while the 9, 10 and J tiles are all only worth between 0.05 and 0.50 credits.
Is Miami Beach Right for You?
The answer to that question all depends on whether you enjoy loosely themed slot machines that give you a rough and unedited experience rather than a refined one. Wazdan don’t seem to do finesse very well, but instead deliver games that are of a medium quality and enjoyment. For us, this title isn’t worth more than 3 out of 5 stars, for it doesn’t feel like you ever get any closure after you’ve played it.
