Sam on the Beach Slot Review

Meet Sam and his family of trolls as they travel to the Caribbean to enjoy their vacation. Join them for a chance to win huge rewards but be careful because even though trolls might not be the sharpest, they sure are canny, so make sure they don’t scam you in the process.

The visuals are fairly simple. The background consists of a static image showing an island beach with a few palm trees and a mountain visible in the distance. The reels occupy the biggest part of the screen.

Mechanics-wise, the slot operates in the classic format as all the reels start spinning together and stop individually in consecutive order. Winning symbols become briefly animated.

If you find this slot interesting then we recommend you check out Elk Studios’ “Electric Sam”, which is the first part of the mini-series. For now, let’s see how you can play Sam on the Beach.

How to Play Sam on the Beach

The game has 3 rows and 5 reels with 243 ways to win. The main controls are located at the corners of the screen allowing you to spin, autoplay, select bet size, or enter the in-game menu for further customization.

Elk Studios provides 4 predefined bet options on its games. Based on which one you select the bet of each spin is automatically determined based on your current bankroll and few past spin results. Bets start at $0.20 and go as high as $100.

Sam on the Beach is a medium to high volatility slot meaning you can expect to get bigger wins but on infrequent intervals. That said, the most you can win from a single spin is 2,275x your bet with a maximum of $227,520.

Moving on, the game consists of 3 low paying and 4 high paying symbols. The first come in the form of neon signs in the shape of a starfish, a seahorse, and a crab. The most rewarding symbols are represented by the slot’s characters which are Sam, Sandra, Maggie, and Ted.

The featured special symbols are:

  • Wild – It substitutes all other symbols except for the free spins symbol to form winning combinations. It can only appear on reels 2 and 4.
  • Free Spins – This symbol comes in the form of a bell. Getting at least 3 of them will activate the free spins feature.

Game Rules

Sam on the Beach Features

Since this is a medium to high volatility title, the biggest wins are most likely to occur during the bonus features so let’s check them out.

Beach Memories Re-Spin

Regardless of their order, getting a spin where one of the rows contains all four characters will trigger a respin with 4 sticky wilds. This feature can be re-triggered up to 3 times.

Free Spins

The free spins feature is triggered when the player gets at least 3 bell symbols. This award 5 free spins. Getting 4 or 5 bell symbols awards 10 and 15 free spins respectively. Every additional bell symbol that appears during the feature will award an additional free spin. The feature ends when the player doesn’t have any free spins left.

During the feature, the player can randomly trigger some bonus effects. These are:

  • Sam’s Electric Treat – A random symbol in reel 2, 3, 4, or 5 is converted to a sticky wild and remains there for the remaining free spins.
  • Sandra’s Electric Treat – Increases the current multiplier by 1x up to a maximum of 8x. Ted’s multipliers are also multiplied with Sandra’s multipliers.
  • Ted’s Electric Treat – Replaces one of the Ted symbols that triggered the effect with a 2x or 3x sticky multiplier which stays in place for the remainder of the free spins. In case the multiplier is placed on top of an already existing one, the values are added.
  • Maggie’s Electric Treat – All Maggie and low-paying symbols are hit and new symbols take their place. That spin’s winnings are calculated after the replacement occurs.
