When we say spectacular, we aren’t being over enthusiastic. When you launch The Great Galaxy Grab game (playable at Ladbrokes Casino and other Microgaming sites) you will be presented with a very impressive mini-movie that provides a tongue-in-cheek back-story. This mini-movie boasts CGI-style 3D graphics, and instantly demonstrates that the game in store will be a genuine audio-visual treat.

We won’t spoil the plot for you, but we can tell you that The Great Galaxy Grab story takes place on board the Galactic Galleon and revolves around the antics of Captain Bronzebeard, his wife Steel Scarlett and three robotic crew members: Deckhand Dan, Trusty Rusty, Dozer. Intrigued? We thought so, but we’ll leave you to discover the rest.

At the end of the mini-movie (which you can choose to skip if you really want to) you will be taken to the main gaming screen. You will notice that the graphics here are just as good as they were in the introductory segment. We’re talking rendering here, not simple illustration, and the overall effect is quite stunning. Audio is also very impressive. The Great Galaxy Grab boasts a relaxing soundtrack that works perfectly with the various space and technology sound effects that the game employs.

Apart from the aesthetic points that we have already discussed, there are two things that make The Great Galaxy Grab online slots game a hit in the making. The first is the fact that it boasts a trail of six different bonuses, namely the Bank Bonus, Refuel Bonus, Diner Bonus, Saloon Bonus, Casino Bonus and Mall Bonus.

That’s a lot of bonus action to experience, so the second great thing about this online casino game is that it allows you to play for a while and then continue from where you left off the next time you play. That’s right – The Great Galaxy Grab actually memorises where you are in the adventure when you quit so that you can continue from that same point next time. This is a superb feature which offers a real sense of achievement over and above the financial rewards on offer.

Talking of financial rewards, there are plenty. The Bank Bonus allows you to win up to 21,000 coins, the Refuel Bonus and Diner Bonus each offer 25,000, the Saloon Bonus offers 40,000 and the Casino Bonus and Mall Bonus offer 42,500 and 45,000 coins respectively. Still not enough for you? Then how does a potential win of 240,000 coins from Free Spins sound?

Whether you’re looking to get rich quick or simply spend some of your spare time enjoying an adventure through space, The Great Galaxy Grab is sure to impress. Play it today and you’ll be captivated for weeks!
