Beach Life washes your cares away on a picturesque beach filled with vibrant colors, surfers riding the waves, and of course, a beach babe or two to complete the scene. This Playtech slot also features one of the biggest progressive jackpots around, and can be played at Playtech casinos such as BetFred Casino, Casino Tropez, William Hill Casino, and others.
Beach Life Basic Information
Beach Life uses symbols and sound effects to replicate a trip to the beach. Some of the symbols you will see in this 5 reel, 20 payline slot will include sand castles, snorkelers, surfers, popsicles, and of course, a bikini-clad girl. Furthermore, sound effects are used throughout the game, while many symbols animate (i.e. the surfer rides the waves, etc.) when a win occurs.
Beach Life Coin Values and Jackpots
As you would likely expect for a progressive game, the coin value is fixed at 25 cents in Beach Life. Since you can only bet one coin per line and there are 20 lines, your bet can range from 25 cents per spin to play just one line to $5 per spin to play all 20 of them.
Besides the progressive jackpot, you can win up to 100,000 coins on a regular prize in this game, which is a pretty high secondary jackpot for a progressive slot. Other top prizes include 2,000 coins, while the bonus game and scatter multipliers can add to your winnings, as well.
Beach Life Jackpot Rules
To win the 100,000 coin base jackpot, you simply need to collect five of the wild symbols (a smiling sun with sunglasses on to protect his eyes from…well, his own rays, I guess) on any payline except the 20th payline. Don’t worry, if you get them on the 20th payline you will win much more, but we’ll get to that later.
Beach Life Progressive Jackpots
In Beach Life, as with many progressive video slot games Canadian players frequent, you will have to play every payline to have a chance at the progressive jackpot, because it can only be won on the 20th and final payline. You have to collect five of the sun symbols on the 20th payline to win the progressive jackpot.
This jackpot is often one of the highest you’ll find, and was just won for a record amount of $8.2 million recently. The average win is over $3 million and even the lowest win ever was a very nice $504,000.
Beach Life Special Symbols
Our smiling sun friend is the wild symbol and can substitute for any symbols besides the scatter or bonus symbol to complete a winning combination, though it does not multiply winnings when it does so.
The rather shiny looking sandcastles represent the scatter symbol, which multiplies your total bet by 2x (for 2 symbols), 5x (for 3), 50x (for 4), or 500x (for 5) when they appear on any reel. These winnings are added to normal payline wins.
Finally, the bonus symbol is a treasure chest, and obtaining 3+ chests on any active payline kicks off the bonus round.
Beach Life Bonus Game
The bonus game changes the music and sound effects while you select from 14 closed treasure chests to reveal your bonus winnings. Your three choices are multiplied by your line bet for that round to add even more to your winnings.
Beach Life Final Thoughts
Life on the beach is all about fun and sun, and the video slot game Beach Life stays true to that ideal, while offering a very attractive progressive jackpot to aim for, as well. Check it out at your next opportunity and give yourself a chance to become a millionaire!
