The leading software provider Realtime Gaming (RTG) has released a new online slot game titled Polar Explorer at its online casinos. The Polar theme is very exciting and this slot game has a mix of popular and innovative features. Therefore it is bound to attract traffic.

The reels are set in the frigid Arctic background and the symbols are set against snow. The Polar environment is created realistically. The thematic symbols are the explorer, ship, polar bear, narwhal, seal and compass. These pay handsomely for getting five symbols in an active payline, but small amounts for getting two symbols in an active payline. Players can expect Polar Explorer to be a volatile slot machine. The low paying symbols are the playing card royals (from ace to nine). The explorer is the wild symbol. The ship is the scatter symbol and offers scatter payouts.

Usually the bonus features are triggered by getting specified combination of symbols on the reels. Polar Explorer uses a completely new mechanism. Royal symbols in reels 2, 3 and 4 may contain part of a snowflake pattern in the background during normal games. If these reels happen to contain only royals and a complete and correct snowflake pattern is created in the background then one of three bonus features will be randomly triggered. Polar Explorer also incorporates the popular RTG Feature Guarantee. If the required snowflake pattern does not appear for 125 consecutive spins then one of the bonus features will automatically be activated. The Feature Guarantee comes with the Instant Trigger Chance. Players can take the chance of triggering the features by activating the wheel. If it stops on a green band a feature will be triggered. As the number of spins left for the Feature Guarantee decrease, the number of the green bands on the wheel increase.

The first of the features is Explorer Feature. Five free spins are awarded in which reels 4 and 5 are made up entirely of wild Explorer symbols. Three or more scatter ships appearing on the reels will add five free spins. In the Discovery Feature eight free spins are awarded. At least one reel will have at least one Explorer symbol, though these symbols may appear in stacks. Three or more scatter ships can retrigger eight free spins up to two times. In the Hidden Chest feature players first open chests to reveal up to three bonus symbols. Then eight free spins are played out. Whenever the revealed bonus symbols appear on the reels they are converted to the wild Explorer symbols. Three or more scatter ships appearing on the reels will add five free spins. Polar Explorer is live at RTG online casinos like Club World, Win Palace, Silver Oak and Slots Jungle.
