Otterly Amazing Slot Review 2024

Team up with some adorable Sea Otters and help clean up the ocean in Relax Gaming partner Blue Guru Games‘ latest release, Otterly Amazing!

Sea Otters are the true heroes of the ocean, keeping the kelp forests ticking over by munching on all the naughty sea urchins that would otherwise destroy them.

But something more sinister has happened. Since 2014, the once-flourishing kelp forests have been disappearing, leaving behind nothing but barren wastelands of sea urchins and rubbish, commonly known as ‘urchin barrens’ where beautiful kelp once lived.

The Sea Otters need our help to restore the ocean to its former glory by collecting sea urchins and rubbish, in hopes that the once-flourishing kelp will grow back. As we continue to aid the Otters in restoring the kelp forests, we’ll unlock more Rows, Mystery symbols, Symbol Knockout, and increasing Multipliers.

Otterly Amazing is an educational slot that highlights an important ecological story, with entertaining gameplay, mechanics, and an impressive max win cap of 17,752x.

Help the Sea Otters on their mission to save the kelp forests and take part in the action and fun along the way.

Otterly Amazing Base Game and Features

Otterly Amazing is a 5- 7 reel slot with between 40 and 70 fixed pay lines in play. Winning combinations are formed when 3 or more of the same symbols land from left to right, starting from the leftmost reel.

The minimum bet available here is £.€0.20 per spin and the maximum bet available is £.€40 per spin, with plenty of other options in between the two. Otterly Amazing has a theoretical RTP of 96.09% and a max win cap of 17,752x.

In terms of symbols, the highest-paying regular symbol here is the Pink Otter, followed by the Purple, Blue, and Yellow Otters. Low-paying symbols fall to a collection of rubbish items such as discarded Containers, Bags, Tins, and Bottles. Wilds substitute for all High and Low-paying symbols.

Stacked Mystery Kelp

During both the base game and Free Spins round, Mystery symbols in the form of Kelp can land stacked across the reels at random. Once this happens, all Mystery Kelp will reveal the same High or Low-paying symbol, with the possibility of creating a winning combination.

Otterly Amazing Free Spins

Landing 3 or more Scatter symbols across the reels will automatically trigger the Free Spins round, awarding up to 20 Free Spins at random.

During Free Spins, an additional +3 rows will appear locked above the reel set. Unlocking these extra rows requires a number of special Pink and Blue Scatters to land in view, which will award the following.

Pink Scatters

Collecting 3 Pink Scatters awards +1 Free Spin, +1 extra row which unlocks an additional +10 pay lines, removes 1 Low-paying symbol, and adds +1 position on both the Stacked Mystery Kelp and Stacked Multiplier Wild Kelp meters. 

A maximum of +30 additional pay lines can be activated during this time, for a total of 70 pay lines in play. When all pay lines and rows are unlocked, and all Low-paying symbols have been removed, an additional +1 Free Spin will be awarded.

Blue Scatters

Collecting 3 Blue Scatters awards +1 Free Spin and a +x1 Multiplier increase on all 3 Multiplier levels. Up to 3 Multiplier values are attached to the Stacked Wild Multiplier Kelp and are randomly revealed when triggering the symbol as part of a winning combination.

Stacked Wild Multiplier Kelp

Stacked Wild Multiplier Kelp are only available during the Free Spins round, and can land in any position across the reels. These symbols can contain up to 3 random Multiplier values, starting at x2, x3, and x4.

Stacked Wild Multiplier Kelp substitutes for all High and Low-paying symbols in the paytable. As mentioned previously, Stacked Mystery Kelp can also land at any time during this round, revealing the same High or Low-paying symbol.

Otterly Amazing Bonus Buy

Those outside the UK will benefit from a Bonus Buy option. Blue Guru Games has granted players access to the Free Spins round for a total cost of 100x your current bet. (RTP 96.03%)

Otterly Amazing: Our Verdict

Eco warriors will be smitten with Otterly Amazing in perhaps the first slot that cleans the ocean rather than taking you to the cleaners.

It’s a cute and almost ethereal game with a calming and tranquil vibe, making it the perfect slot to unwind with. Blue Guru Games always stand out when it comes to slot design, but players are understandably more concerned with its capabilities.

Thankfully, Otterly Amazing performs pretty well, but the Base Game could have done with a touch of something to make it more engaging. Mystery Symbols is nice, but something more would have made Otterly Amazing a lot more appealing. Base Game appeal is vital to longevity, so players could potentially look elsewhere if Otterly Amazing doesn’t bonus fairly quickly.

During Free Spins is where the Otterly Amazing clean-up effort gets going, providing you can collect the scatter symbols needed to up the ante. It’s a nice balance of extra rows and multiplier wilds which can result in huge wins in the right conditions.

Overall, we think Otterly Amazing deserves some credit. It’s a well-built slot with significant potential and an undeniable ‘cute’ factor.
