Medusa
In a nutshell
Medusa’s a 5-reel 3-line slot with a theme picked from the tales of Ancient Greek mythology. Although its graphics aren’t particularly sophisticated compared to other slots, it’s got a nice atmosphere going, and it comes with a 10-free-spin and two bonus features.
There’s a picking round that can get you up to 50 times your bet, and a gamble function that you can use five times to try and double or even quadruple your bet.
A Closer Look
As soon as the Medusa slot has loaded, you’re welcomed with a crash of thunder. Greek temples, toppled-over columns and a lone warrior’s helmet under a stormy sky make for an atmosphere heavy with danger. After all, Medusa’s not one of the ladies you’d want to mess with.
The game’s symbols stay in line with its theme. There’s all the Mount Olympus paraphernalia one can hope for, from winged sandals to spears to grapes to a less than friendly snake. Medusa’s the obvious choice for the wild symbol, but be careful: She’s the head with snakes for hair, not the slate with the game’s logo on it. Don’t confuse the two.
Even though the graphics are pretty simple, the Medusa video slot quite appealing. The soundtrack fits the backdrop of the abandoned temples very well, and if you should be the kind of gambler that unites a love for slots with a love for history and all things ancient and Mediterranean, or dangerous women for that matter, this one’s definitely for you.
Free Spins Feature
The free spins feature in Medusa slot machine is called the Once Bitten Bonus. It’s activated whenever three or more game logo symbols appear scattered across the reels. You’ll get 10 free spins with a double multiplier. There’s more: If you get the soldier symbol on reel 3, you’ll get three super spins. These follow after the 10 free spins mentioned before, and they’ve got a x5 multiplier going for them. And if you’re in luck, you’ll get another 10 free spins re-triggering the round.
Bonus Features
A neat feature is the Turn to Stone bonus. Get three Medusa wilds (again, the woman with the snakes, not the logo!), and the evil lady will turn the three middle reels to stone. One of the reels will then crack and produce a scattered wild, which you’ll have for the next three spins. These three spins come with a x3 multiplier.
The third feature in this game is the Pegasus Bonus. With three Pegasus symbols you’ll get to a picking round. All symbols will show the Pegasus, and you get to pick to see your prize. You can win up to 50 times your initial bet in this round.
Special Features
The Medusa slot machine includes an autoplay button as well as a gamble feature. Guessing the right color of the card gets you twice your bet, guessing the right suit gets you four times your bet. You can use this feature a total of five times.
