Da Vinci’s Treasure is a 5-reel and 3-row slot, with 25 paylines and the total payout of 500,000 coins. Looking at the win potential, it can be easily guessed that this is a high-variance game, although the return to the player percentage is slightly above average – around 96.5% with the betting range of $0.25 to $125 per spin.
Da Vinci symbol is the Wild, landing on reels 2 to 4 – the same as the Scatter icon, which can randomly trigger one of the following bonuses:
- Map Quest – a bonus game with a Wheel of Fortune and x100 potential bet multiplier;
- Progressive Multiplier Free Spins Feature – 12 free rounds with a multiplier that increases on every next spin. The feature can be re-triggered which means that up to 60 Free Spins can be unlocked.
- Prize Picker – a traditional picking game where the player can potentially win a cash prize by selecting one of the 3 items on the screen.
Microgaming – Lara Croft® Temples and Tombs™
Definitely one of the most anticipated titles of the season, Lara Croft Temples and Tombs is a sequel to Microgaming’s earlier Lara Croft-inspired slots, released in 2004 (Tomb Raider) and 2008 (Tomb Raider – Secret of the Sword). Obviously, the latest edition from the series is (as expected) visually superior, and the designers have done an excellent job in adapting the story to a gaming interface and conveying the ambience of the movie.
The slot features Rolling Reels mechanics and offers amazing winning potential, introducing 3 progressive jackpots – Minor, Major, and Grand. Every next winning spin will improve the payout odds, initiating the Multiplier Trail and thus upgrading the multiplier value according to the following pattern:
- 1st winning spin – x1
- 2nd winning spin (in a row) – x2
- 3rd winning spin (in a row) – x5
- Every next winning spin – x5
Multiplying value is even higher during the Free Spins, starting with x3 and accumulating up to x15.
The Wild symbols are collected throughout the base game spins, contributing to the player’s odds of triggering one of the jackpots. Once the feature is activated, the payout is guaranteed, and the amount will be determined by the revolving puzzle that can be assembled in three different colours, each corresponding to one of the progressive jackpots.
