Ocean Magic Grand Advantage Play Slot

Ocean Magic Grand is IGT’s supersized follow‑up to the original Ocean Magic, built for the single‑screen CrystalCurve™ cabinet. The 43‑inch, 4K, curved display makes the underwater theme feel almost panoramic, while the 6 × 5 reel array adds 50 percent more real estate for the game’s trademark floating Wild Bubbles. In brick‑and‑mortar casinos the title has proven popular with both casual players—who like the colorful “aquarium” ambience—and advantage players looking to exploit leftover bubbles for positive‑EV sessions.

IGT expands the reel set to six reels and five rows and evaluates 38 fixed lines on every spin. Bets come in Regular and “Bubble Boost” tiers; activating Bubble Boost doubles the wager but releases up to seven extra Wild Bubbles when the ship’s foghorn sounds, greatly increasing hit frequency. Each bubble begins at or below the bottom row and drifts one row upward on subsequent spins, remaining in view for up to six games—two more spins than in the original title—so a partially played machine can present valuable opportunities.

• Wild Bubbles & Surrounding Wilds: Every bubble is wild. When one lands directly on an Ocean Magic symbol, it “pops” and converts all adjacent positions into additional wilds for that spin.
• 2 × 2 Big Bubble: New to the Grand version, this oversized bubble can cover four symbol positions; if it overlays an Ocean Magic symbol, it can spread wilds to as many as twelve spots in a 2‑4‑4‑2 pattern, creating huge line‑hit potential.
• AVS Companies
• Free Games Bonus: Hitting three or more Treasure Chest scatters launches a bubble‑picking intro that awards up to 20 free spins plus extra picks. During the bonus, new bubbles are guaranteed to appear beneath each reel and migrate upward on every spin, and the Bubble Boost option (if purchased) remains active. Free spins can be retriggered.

Ocean Magic Grand’s presentation leans hard into its ocean theme: animated kelp sways behind transparent reels, schools of fish dart across the screen, and the audio mix layers bubbling water with a brass‑heavy soundtrack that swells during big‑win reveals. The CrystalCurve cabinet’s tall, gentle arc keeps the entire 6 × 5 grid in a player’s natural line of sight, and the angled deck makes bet selection and the Bubble Boost toggle intuitive. LED edge lighting pulses in sync with bubble releases, creating a tactile sense of anticipation. Casinos often bank the machines in pods or carousels; the combination of towering screens and bright aquatic blues gives the game strong floor presence without feeling garish
