Each continent has its distinct characteristics, including fauna and flora. And Australia is no different. There are two fantastic slot games that make Australia come alive on the reels. Red Sands is from Realtime Gaming and can be played at online casinos like Lucky Red and Club World. Microgaming offers No Worries at its online casinos like All Slots and Royal Vegas.

Red Sands refers to the typically red coloured soil of the Australian outback and deserts. The high paying symbols are animals found only in Australia like koala bear, wombat and echidna. The echidna looks like a porcupine, but is an egg laying mammal. The low paying symbols are brightly coloured and decorated playing card icons looking like works of Aboriginal art. Red Sands video slot has two special symbols. The kangaroo is the most famous of Australian icons and is the wild symbol with a 2x multiplier property. It starts paying from a single symbol combination on the first reel and pays 5000 times the line bet for a five-of-a-kind combination. The moonscape is the scatter symbol and awards payouts multiplied by the total bet. The Respin feature is triggered when two or more moonscape symbols appear left to right or right to left. The triggering reels are held while the remaining reels are spun again up to 10 times. Only scatter payouts are awarded in this feature, but the kangaroo substitutes for the moonscape symbol.

No Worries refers to the carefree attitude typical of Australians. The high paying symbols are again native Australian animals, but there are many more of them. They include wallaby, koala bear, platypus, wombat, kookaburra and Tasmanian devil. These are crafted in a comical style with hilarious win animations. For example, the kookaburra plays a didgeridoo. This is one of the reasons for the popularity of the online slot. The boomerang is the scatter symbol and the No Worries logo is the wild symbol. In No Worries as well Aboriginal style playing card icons are used as the low paying symbols. There is a free spins feature that ends with some interesting options. The first option is to collect your winnings as usual. But if you feel that these winnings are on the lower side, you can forgo them and play the free spins again. The third option is to exchange the free spin winnings for a mystery bonus payout. No Worries also features the Microgaming gamble game.
