Cool As Ice Slot Review

How to Play

Unsurprisingly, with a name like Cool as Ice, this slot is set in the arctic. The design is simple with the blue and white icy colors popping out and giving the game a fun and almost cartoonish feel. The action takes place on a standard 5x3 grid with 25 fixed paylines. This is definitely a game that is suited to higher players, with the minimum wager being €0.10 a line, equalling a €2.50 total bet. The highest bet is €40,000 a line, which equates to a million total stake. If you don’t want to be betting that kind of cash straight away, then give the Cool as Ice demo we have provided a run first.  

Symbols and Payouts 

Given the high wagers people can place, there is the chance to win some big money in the Cool as Ice video slot. The highest paying symbol is an Eskimo who pays 750 your line bet for five, 250x for four, and 25x for three. A polar bear with some sunglasses pays the same for five and four, but only coughs up 20x for three.

A seal in a Hawaiin shirt and a penguin with a cocktail wrap up this funny little crew of characters, paying out 500x and 250x your line bet for five respectively. Next up are the royal symbols, all of which are stylized to look as though they’re melting. The Ace, King, and Queen all pay out 150x your line bet for five, while the Jack and 10 pay out 100x and 75x respectively. Finally, the nine is the lowest paying symbol, paying 50x for five, 25x for four, and 5x for three.  

Best Cool as Ice Bonus Feature

Genesis has made sure that there is a good range of Cool as Ice bonus features available for players to take advantage of here. The first two you will probably run into are the iceberg wild feature and the ice fishing bonus. The iceberg wild is a wild symbol that will appear on reel three only.  When it lands, it turns the entire reel wild, and sometimes, it might even turn reels 2 and 4 wild as well. The Ice Fishing bonus is a mystery symbol feature, with frozen symbols landing on reels 2 and 4 and then cracking to reveal a prize.  

The husky race bonus is one of the cutest bonuses you’re likely to encounter in a slot. When a husky lands on reel 1 and a sled lands on the same row on reel 5, three sleds will race across each of the rows, leaving behind extra wild symbols on the reels.  

We can’t end this Cool as Ice slot review without mentioning the last special feature. Namely, landing three scatter symbols in the game will trigger the Cool as Ice free spins feature. When this triggers, players will get to select items from inside an igloo. These items will contain free spins and multipliers. Once they click on a collect item, all of the bonuses will be added together and the free spins round will start. Players are initially awarded four free spins, not including the ones they have selected from the igloo. The maximum number of free spins available is 46. The highest multiplier that can be applied is 15x.
