From Sunday school, elementary school or even during those cold winter nights when our dads and moms used to tell us bedtime stories. So you have probably heard or seen movies about the Biblical story of a certain man who was asked by the Lord to build an ark in preparation for the coming floods to save the world world from extinction of the human and animal kind.

Quick Start Guide Noah’s Ark Slots

The man’s name was Noah and he with the aid of others who managed to listen to his advice built an ark that housed a pair of all the animals on the land. In this iPad slot game, IGT reenacts Noah’s story not sure if he approved of gambling but so be-it 🙂 .

Based on this Biblical theme, Noah’s Ark slot game has cartoon-like graphics and comes with five reels and 30 paylines and it’s quite a good but not great game overall.

Slot Layout 101

This slot is set against a backdrop of an ocean acting as the background. The reels of the game are designed on the sides of the ark.

Reel symbols for Dummies

Noah’s Ark has the following symbols on the reels: standard playing card icons, game logo, hippos, elephants, zebras, ostriches, alligators, camels, lions, turtles, and doves. Most of these symbols come in pairs as your expect.

Base game symbols and pay tables

Zebra and Lions: The Zebra and the lion icons carry the highest payouts in the base game. Noah’s Ark pays out in two ways (i) the standard way of paying out applied in most other slots i.e. matching 3+ symbols on an active payline (ii) the game also applies a cluster pay feature which entails that a player can win when they match up the symbols of the same kind in a cluster that may consist of as many as 10 symbols. With the zebra and lion being the highest paying icons, they fetch 10 credits for a cluster of three (same kind), for four icons of the same kind they fetch 30 credits, for five icons they fetch 100 credits, for six icons they fetch 200 credits, for seven icons they fetch 300 credits, for eight icons they fetch 500 credits, for nine icons they fetch 1000 credits and for ten icons they fetch 2500 credits.
All other animal symbols: All the other animal symbols carry the game’s second-highest payouts. A cluster of three of the same kind fetches 10 credits, a cluster of four fetches 30 credits, a cluster of five fetches 100 credits, a cluster of six fetches 200 credits, a cluster of seven fetches 300 credits, a cluster of eight fetches 500 credits, a cluster of nine fetches 800 credits and a cluster of ten fetches 1000 credits.
Playing Cards: These are the low-value symbols in Noah’s Ark. Among these, ‘A’ is the highest paying fetching 8 credits for three, 20 credits for four and 200 credits for five. The remaining icons i.e. J, Q and K fetch 5 credits for matching three of the same kind, 15 credits for matching four of the same kind and 100 credits for matching five of the same kind.
