Have you ever seen the Love Boat? It was a television comedy show that aired in late 1970’s and 1980’s that revolved around the ship’s captain and a handful of its crew, with several passengers – different guest actors each episode – having romantic and humorous adventures. As soon as you launch this Playtech slot, the familiar theme song will bring back memories and get you in the right mood to enjoy this game. 

“The Love Boat” is a video slot with 5 reels and 25 paylines, which has been created by Playtech, one of the largest online gaming software suppliers in the world. The symbols in this game could be divided into three categories. There are simple symbols that look like outlines of various objects including a heart, lifebelt, champagne glasses and a clipboard. Then, there are characters from the show like Captain Merrill Stubing, Dr. Adam “Doc” Bricker, Isaac Washington, Julie McCoy and Burl “Gopher” Smith. Finally there are special symbols: The Love Boat logo is a Scatter that activates 10 Love Doctor Free Games, the Ship Control Handle is a Bonus symbol that activates Matchup bonus, Dream Cruise Ticket awards tickets for Jackpot draw and a red outline of the Love Boat is a Wild symbol. Special symbols have some small animations and during certain bonuses you can watch short fragments of the show. 

Get 3 or more The Love Boat logo symbols to activate the Love Doctor Free Games. During the free games, for each “Doc” symbol that appears on the reels that love meter goes up +1. Meter level will determine the feature that will be triggered, which can include freezing wilds and more free spins. 

If you get the Ship Control Handle Bonus symbol on reels 1, 3 and 5 the Matchup Bonus will be activated. Match the dudes and the chicks for a cash prize and multiplier: pick a foxy lady and then a gentleman and your cash prize will be the sum of their cash prizes. Then the Matchup meter will test your match and award you with up to 5x multiplier. 

The Love Boat Wild symbol will substitute for all except Bonus, Scatter and Dream Cruise Ticket symbols.

The Dream Cruise Ticket symbol gives you tickets for the Dream Cruise Jackpot draw whenever it appears on reel 5. The jackpot draw is held on a weekly basis, the exact date and time for the next draw are shown on the jackpot side bar on the right side of the game screen. 

“The Love Boat” slot is a must play for the fans of the classic show, but also should interest other players as well. It’s hard to be bored thanks to all the different special features and the chance to win the Love Boat Jackpot should keep everyone excited and have their hearts beating as if they just saw the love of their life!
