Vacation Station is a charming little travel themed slot machine, a game with appropriate graphics, with an interesting layout and with a type of gameplay that you rarely see. The travel theme is often exploited in the form of beautiful tropical islands where the focus is on the beach and the palm trees found nearby, but in this case it’s more about the various means of locomotion you can use to reach a destination. Whether it’s a red sports car, a fast motorcycle or an ocean liner, the game has it all among its symbols.
Vacation Station is a colorful and fun slot, with 8 paylines offered on its 9 reels, an unusual choice, but one that allows it to offer both vertical and horizontal paylines. The scatter symbol is its only feature, the really attractive part being its $20,000 top jackpot.
Features of Vacation Station
The only feature that this game seems to offer is a scatter symbol. Due to the way the scatter symbol works, and because there are 9 reels total in this slot, you can have as many as 9 scatter symbols on the screen, which would occupy all the symbol positions of the game. That’s why the game’s rewards take that into account and offer up to 1000x in prizes for players that manage such a feat. The smallest number of scatter symbols required is four, which also get you very small prizes (2x). The image used to represent the scatter symbol in the game is that of a suitcase.
Betting options and jackpots
In Vacation Station, you will discover a slot machine that gives you the option to wager up to $120 per spin, despite having only 8 paylines. Each of those lines gets bets of up to $15, with three coins of $5 being part of them. A total of 24 coins are used if the bet is maxed out in each case, but you can also reduce the number of active lines. The smallest coin denomination is at $0.01.
The top prize gets you 4,000 coins, but is offered when you select all three coins per line. Smaller line bets will result in fewer coins. The maximum value of a prize is at $20,000.
Design and symbols
It’s a colorful design that shows us a smiling man in a Hawaiian shirt that is getting ready to leave on the holiday of a lifetime. He’s at the station and he’s holding his suitcases, while on the left side of the screen you can see the 9 reels arranged in a 3×3 layout. On them, there are mostly the various types of vehicles he can use to get to his destination. These are all well made symbols, each one of a different color and managing to make a good game out of Vacation Station.
Symbols: Suitcase (scatter, 1000 coins), Airplane (4,000 coins), Ship (2,250 coins), Sailboat (1,500 coins), Hot Air Balloon (750 coins), Submarine (300 coins), Sports Car (240 coins), Motorcycle (180 coins), Train (120 coins) and Bus (75 coins).
Is It Worth Playing?
It’s a highly enjoyable game, at least visually, as the feature list is quite empty. The prizes are OK, though the wagers are a bit on the high side for what is offered in return.
This Vacation Station slot is offered by all online casinos with Playtech software, playable either in practice or in real money mode.
