Travel around the world with a passport, a suitcase, in an airplane to see the wonders of the world. Around the world is a 5 reel, 20 payline video slots game, with the betting limits of $0.01 to $5. It is a non-progressive slots game and the maximum number of coins allowed is 20, while travelling around the world offers a huge jackpot of 30,000 coins.

The theme of the game is the world, and all the giant towering structures man has created in it. The Eifel Tower in France, the Egyptian pyramids, the Chinese Pagoda’s, the Statue of Liberty, the Big Ben in England, Mount Rushmore, the Clock Tower and the Sydney Opera House based in Australia are some of these giant attractions.

All the winnings are awarded left to right and right to left in consecutive order, the highest wins are paid at the selected payline, and if there are different coinciding wins or different selected paylines, they are added. All of the symbols have some amount of payout attached to them, provided they are three to five in number.

Wild Symbol:

The Airplane symbol is promptly the wild symbol which means it can substitute for all the other symbols other than the scatter symbol, and does not trigger the Around the World Bonus Game feature. Landing2, 3, 4 and 5 airplane symbols anywhere on the reels awards the player with 10, 250, 5000 and 30,000 coins respectively.

Scatter Symbol:

The Globe is the scatter symbol and appears only on reels 1, 3 and 5, it contributes to winning combinations if two or more globes are present. Three of more globe symbols activate the Around the World Bonus Game feature. If the player lands a scatter symbol win and a regular win, both are paid out.

Around the World Bonus Game Feature:

The catch here is that the bonus game feature is triggered only if three or more globe symbols appear and only if all 20 paylines have been played. During the bonus game, the player is sitting in a hot air balloon which is constantly moving forward and the player has to go up and down the screen to collect the bonus prizes, but there are vultures which can rupture the balloon and make the player lose all the prizes collected.

Payback Bonus Feature:

The payback bonus feature is triggered when the player gets two globe symbols on any of the reels 1, 3 and 5. Only if all the 20 have been wagered up on, the player will get the wager back.
