Winds of Arabiaby Vista Gaming

The progressive jackpot slot – Winds of Arabia is becoming a hit right before our eyes. It doesn’t feature many bonuses like free spins and other needless fluff that only hide the ugly face a slot really is. Winds of Arabia is simply a fun slot that produces big wins.

We all love a good theme to keep us entertained when playing a slot. Winds of Arabia does have a nicely designed theme that reminds of the Disney cartoon, Aladdin. Now that I think about it, it may actually be a bad rip off of the classic film that my daughter makes me watch every night before bed.

Copyright infringement isn’t my area of expertise, so I’ll leave that department alone for the time being.

I do know slots however, and this one is sure to be a favorite.

Winds of Arabia Rules

Like most Vista Gaming progressive slots, Winds of Arabia uses 5 reels and 3 rows of symbols. There 21 pay lines in this version of the slot. You can find 9, and 15 line versions floating around the infinite internet as well.

All wins go from left to right on the reels and most symbols require at least 3 in a row to make a win. The camel symbol only requires two.

All skill levels, and all bankrolls will enjoy Winds of Arabia with its wide spectrum of betting requirements. For smaller pockets, you can play for $0.01 a line using just coin. Larger bankrolls can bump up the coin size button to $1.00 max.

You can play up to 5 coins per line, which is recommended for reasons I’ll get to in a second. Pay lines can also be adjusted and you can choose to play between just 1, or all 21. Again, playing all lines is highly recommended.

Game controls are designed well and lay right beneath the reels. There’s a spin button, music toggle, bet max, coin size, coin level and pay line controls. Other options include a pay table for quick instructions and how much easy symbol pays out.

Winds of Arabia Symbols

All symbols look good and have a professional feel. There’s a camel, snake, monkey, creepy looking man, princess, and a not so creepy looking man. The handsome looking man with the blue feather in his hat will be the highest paying symbol. If you get 5 in a row, you win a payout of 3,000x your line bet.

Finally, there is a wild symbol that replaces all other symbols to help make more winning spins. This is the magic genie lamp.

Winds of Arabia Progressive Jackpot

The jackpot is what we are all playing for. This is a progressive one that grows every second until it’s been hit by someone. It will then reset at a specified amount and start all over again.

To win the progressive jackpot, you need to hit 5 of the not so creepy man symbol. And remember when I said I recommend playing all coins? That’s because in order to qualify for the progressive jackpot, you need to playing the max level of coins.

To make your life easier, just hit the max bet button each spin to ensure you are always playing the max coins.

Winds of Arabia May Blow You Away

Depending on your taste and preferences, Wind of Arabia may not be your cup of tea. The lack of and real bonus feature like free spins could be a turn off for some. I wouldn’t blame you one bit for not giving it a look because of this.

But, would you rather play a slot that has free spins and low paying symbols? Or, would you rather play a slot that may be a little dull, but gives you the chance to win a nice size progressive jackpot and has higher paying symbols compared to the average?
