Medusa: Fortune and Glory

As the cradle of the European civilization, Ancient Greece’s myths and stories have remained as engaging and relevant today as they were centuries ago. This resulted in adaptations of these myths in many different media.

Especially engaging were the ones depicting the Greek heroes, from the Achilles of the Troyan war, over Jason and his Argonauts to Perseus, who gained fame by beheading the ancient creature known as the Gorgon Medusa.

It is the last one that Medusa: Fortune and Glory slot release uses as a thematic background, made by the software developer Dreamtech Gaming, in partnership with Yggdrasil.

Theme

Colorful and cartoonish in style, the slot machine stands in the middle of the bright, beautiful landscape and the whole visual impression is somewhat reminiscent of Disney’s Hercules.

Hydra, Pegasus, Minotaur, and a winged boar Chrysaor, while being undoubtedly creatures from Greek mythology, rather than trying to convey the sense of epicness, look like they would perfectly fit in an animated film like the one mentioned above.

Combined with the very uplifting music, this slot title creates a sense of fun even before the reels are spun.

Betting Options and Functions

With a 6x4 grid and 4096 bet ways, this slot title allows the bet from 0.1 to 3 per bet in terms of coins, which is $0.10 to $30.00 in terms of cash. Playing on a maximum bet, that means that the potential highest win counts $232,000!

The return-to-player is somewhere around the average level, standing at 96.62%.

Features

When it comes to the features, first there is a Wild symbol, depicted as the titular medusa in this slot release. Possessing the power to turn people into stone, it is her that turns into gold in a sleek animation, whenever the Wild combines with other symbols.

However, Medusa is not the only Wild symbol. One of her snakes acts as the spreading Wild, added by the Medusa on all reels, except for the first one, providing not one, but two Wilds that can land anytime during the spin.

The Bonus symbol depicted as two Ancient Greek pillars, trigger the Free Games Feature, whenever 3 or more land on the reels.

You are then offered a choice between two such bonus games. The Fortune feature you get to pick one of six chests containing a random number of extra spins, ranging from 8, 12, 15, 20, 30 to 40 extra spins.

After that, you get to pick a chest again, but this time it is a random number of multipliers, ranging from 2x, 3x, 5x, 8x, 10x to 20x.

The second bonus game is the Glory feature and it works similarly. There is a lesser number of extra spins offered, ranging from 5, 8, 12, 5 to 20.

The second round of the chests doesn't offer multipliers, but Wilds that can substitute 1, 2, or 3 regular symbols.

To Conclude

Immensely fun to play and beautifully drawn and animated, Medusa: Fortune and Glory slot game, provides a high sense of excitement, especially when taking into consideration that remarkably generous maximum win.
