Wisdom of Athena Slot Bonuses and Features
Scatter Symbol. Shown as Athena herself, this symbol can appear on all reels and pays more than any other symbol too. It pays on any position and doesn’t explode when part of a tumble.
Tumbles. These occur on every winning spin, whereby winning symbols disappear from the screen and new ones fall in from above to potentially create more wins and more tumbles, all within the same spin. This continues until there are no more wins, without limits. You’ll also notice there are locked positions above each reel. Tumbles will unlock a position, starting with tumble 1 unlocking position 1 above reel 1, then each 3 tumbles after this the next position will unlock.
Multiplier Symbols. There are 4 different multiplier symbols in this game that can hit on any random spin or tumble. It takes on a value as low as 2x and all the way up to 500x. At the end of a tumble sequence, all values are added together and the total win is multiplied by the final value.
Free Spins Bonus. This is triggered when you land 4 or more scatters on a single spin, giving you 10 free spins. These start with the top row locked, but each tumble will help to unlock more positions and they stay unlocked for the rest of the bonus. Additionally, when a multiplier lands, the total value of all multipliers is applied to each spin. Lastly, you can land 3 or more scatter symbols during the bonus to get 5 more free spins.
Bonus Buy. You can buy the main bonus for 100x your stake outside the U.K.
Conclusion
Wisdom of Athena slot from Pragmatic Play is a new addition to the series and visually it’s about what you’d expect. Graphics are nice and the layout is clean, plus I’m always a fan of a Greek Mythology theme having been interested in the topic for a long time. The base game allows you to unlock additional positions as you get more tumbles, but as you need 15 tumbles in a row to unlock to top row completely, this doesn’t happen very often. It’s easier in the free spins bonus where positions stay unlocked, but ultimately it’s the multipliers that are going to get you the big rewards here, and even in the base game these can be quite good. Overall, it’s a pretty solid game from the developer though nothing too extraordinary.
