Wild symbols substitute for regular paying symbols and help create winning combinations. They become particularly important during free spins, when Wilds may expand and move across the reels to improve the chance of stronger combinations.
Scatter symbols are linked to the bonus section. Arabian Tales offers a three-round bonus game where the player receives Free Spins and selects a free-spins feature option. This makes the bonus a separate interactive stage rather than merely an automatic series of spins.
Expanding Wilds grow across the reels, while Sliding Wilds can move around the grid during Free Spins. These features make the bonus the main source of larger payouts, particularly with high volatility and a maximum win of 1000x.
Theme and style
Arabian Tales is styled around Eastern fairy tales and Arabian legends. The reels use symbols of a sultan, beautiful heroines, warriors, palace details, treasure and classic card values. The pokie fits the following categories: Arabian theme, desert, adventure, bonus games and video pokies.
Platipus used an expanded 6×4 grid rather than the standard 5×3 format. This provides more room for symbols and works well with 50 paylines, the bonus game, Free Spins, Expanding Wilds and Sliding Wilds.
Popularity among players
Arabian Tales may appeal to players who enjoy Arabian-themed pokies, an Arabian Nights fairy-tale atmosphere and bonus features with a choice of Free Spins. High volatility favours less frequent but more noticeable payouts, while 95.03% RTP is typical for a video pokie of this format.
