If you like simple but effective slots, look no further. Aurum Codex slot from Red Tiger Gaming has a simple feature which can offer lots of wilds, especially during the free spins bonus, and it can work surprisingly well. There’s not much else to it, but fortunately it does have a nice design with good graphics. You have a standard setup with 5 reels and 3 rows, giving you 20 paylines in total. You just need to get a winning combination from left to right using the base symbols. These are as follows, ranked in ascending order based on their value:
- 10
- Jack
- Queen
- King
- Ace
- Key
- Scroll
- Skull
- Scales
Aurum Codex Slot Bonuses and Features
Wild Alchemy. It’s possible to land wilds on both the first and fifth reels which then lock in place for the next spin. If wilds on these reel land on the same row, all symbols between them will turn into golden wilds.
Free Spins Bonus. To trigger this, like most slots you need 3 scatter symbols appearing anywhere on the screen. Doing so will give you 10 free spins. There’s nothing too different here, although the changes that are made are significant. When alchemy wilds appear now, they lock in place on the first and fifth reels, meaning you can get a lot of wilds appearing if these are on the same rows. You can also get another scatter appearing to give you 5 or 10 more free spins.
Conclusion
Aurum Codex slot from Red Tiger Gaming, like many of their others, is very simple. It has just one feature really which is enhanced during the free spins bonus can lead to some good wins, although the maximum payout of just over 4,000x your stake could be a bit better. The feature I’m referring to, of course, is the alchemy wild feature which can turn a large number of symbols wild when you land wilds on reels 1 and 5. During the base game, this doesn’t usually offer too much, but during the free spins bonus it can be very valuable, as getting locked wilds on the same row means that, for the rest of the bonus, all symbols between them will be wild. Typically this happens towards the end of the bonus, but with the ability to get more free spins this can still work very well. I still think that they should add a few more features, just small ones to make things more interesting while you don’t have the free spins bonus in play, which is most of the time of course. Overall, it’s a pretty good slot but could be more entertaining and rewarding. You can find other Red Tiger Gaming slots here.
