Moby Dick is a game that tries to make its players smile at the very least, and that’s the kind of slot machine I always want to try. The theme is obviously a mix between the famous Moby Dick story and a duck. A huge Moby Duck is the main character here, the bird being shown in its symbol as it floats on water, with a mean expression on its face. The Ship that hunts Moby Duck is also among the important symbols. You might not see Moby Dick, the big white whale, on the reels of this game, but Moby Duck is the next best thing.
Moby Duck is one of the many 25 lines/5 reel games from Nuworks. Even the features are normal for their titles, using wild symbols, multipliers, scatters and free spins. The top payouts are slightly better than average, going up to $10,000.
Features of Moby Duck
All the features that Moby Duck comes with are normal ones for such a title, with wilds and scatters available, with multipliers and free spins.
Moby Duck, the huge white duck, is shown as it’s floating on the ocean here. This wild symbol can be very generous during the feature, where it awards up to 10,000 coins by taking over paylines on its own. In the base game it substitutes for others while doubling their prizes with its multiplier. In the base game, the wild will only appear on 1st and 5th reels.
The Ship scatter is present on all the reels of the game. As a scatter, the game requires it only to be present in enough locations at the same time, with two to five symbols bringing you prizes of 1x to 200x the wager.
Free Games Feature
The slot’s free spins will bring you 8, 15 or 50 games for free, depending on how many scatters you got on the reels (3, 4 or 5 needed, respectively). The free spins can be retriggered.
If you get a Moby Duck wild on the 1st or/and 5th reel, the monster will move on the rest of the reels and will turn the images of the Captain, the Ship and the Harpooner into other wild Moby Ducks. This can result in the top jackpot combo being formed, which pays 10,000 coins.
Win-Win Feature
This is a feature which guarantees you that the free spins will always bring you prizes, even if you’re unlucky. Depending on the wins you get from the free spins, you can have certain prizes awarded to you.
Get between 5x and 10x the bet, and your consolation prize will be another 5x the bet. With 2x to 5x the bet from the free spins, the prize will be 10x the bet. Up to 2x the bet in wins will trigger a 25x the bet payout. The biggest payout is offered for absolutely no wins, in which case you get 250x the bet as a consolation prize.
Betting options and jackpots
If you decide to maximize your wagers, and your chances to get paid well in the process, you can spend a maximum of $25 each spin. That would be sufficient to cover all the lines with the maximum coin value of $1.
There are two ways to get the slot’s best prize, of $10,000. Having five Moby Duck wilds on a payline during the free spins is one way to do it. The other is to have one wild with its 2x multiplier, and four Fox Captain icons.
Design and symbols
The game’s characters are great, and you get the impression that you’re looking at the interpretation of a real story when you see them. From Moby Duck, to the Fox Captain, the Harpooner Cat or the various fish and pelicans that are also part of the picture, everything is excellently handled. Only themed icons have been chosen to be part of the game, another plus in its favor.
Symbols: Moby Duck (wild), Ship (200x the bet, scatter), Fox Captain (5,000 coins), Harpooner (2,500 coins), Duck Oil Barrel (1,500 coins), Fish (1,000 coins), Rope (500 coins), Telescope (250 coins), Anchor (250 coins), Ship’s Wheel (250 coins), Boat (150 coins), Map (150 coins) and Bird (150 coins).
Is It Worth Playing?
It’s one of the better games that Nuworks has put forward, and they have a few other such titles, where they mix themes and a hilarious game comes out of it. I highly recommend you at least take a look at it.
You will find Moby Duck at any online casino which chooses to use software from NuWorks, playable either for free or for real money.
