Aztec Temple Treasures

You might not want to meet the blood-thirsty Aztec Gods, even though here they tend to rain down coins instead of demanding human sacrifices in order for the sun to rise tomorrow as well. The slot takes influences from Central-American history, and adds in a good bit of traditional gaming features into the mix.

At first look, this seems like just another slot, but under the hood you’ll find a surprisingly versatile game that breaks a few norms. Look out for the specials, which includes expanding reels.

Theme and Symbols

Playing card ranks are something that you can find in most slots, they are that sort of iconic symbols that all players recognize as low-value symbols. What about the big ones then? You’ll find a fox of some sort, corn, eagles, statues and the jaguar. Audio effects are a strange mix, with mostly ominous sounds that fit the theme perfectly. You’ll also be surprised by a few animations whenever the reels get wild.

Betting Options and Functions

Your basic payline setup includes 30 paylines converging from leftmost to the rightmost reel. The setup is a five times three grid, perhaps the most popular reel setup in use these days. To give it a spin, the special features will move the setting considerably.

Overall, the variance is set to high, with the occasional small or medium win lowering that bar a little bit. It’s the five symbol combos you’re after here, as they always give returns in the hundreds, with the top win offering 800 times your line bet.

Features

Let’s start off with the bonus spins. Three, four or five scatters will reward the player with 10, 15 or 20 bonus spins respectively. During this bonus, the Aztec Gods feature might fire more often.

What are the Aztec God features? They are three different specials that add a lot of worthy prizes on the reels.

The Path of Gods will see the gods walk through the reels, dropping wilds throughout the reels. Heaven ascension will move upwards from the bottom reels, adding wilds in their wake, usually filling the whole reel.

Finally, the most interesting feature is the Mighty God, which will expand the reels themselves. Each of the reels will double the symbol count, going from three to six. This also doubles the paylines, with thirty more added to the reels.

All of these features can occur on the same spin.

Our Take

Aztec Temple Treasures are hard to claim, and the high variance might result in quite a few dry spins. Luckily, the wilds, gods and features are on your side, stacking the chances in your favour, especially during bonus spins. 2by2 Gaming hasn’t re-invented the wheel here, yet they’ve come up with a slot that intrigues with the theme as much as with the specials and wins.
