Wild Gods

Leap Gaming is not the first software provider to have this idea, but it must be admitted that we have rarely seen it implemented with such success. You try to put two divinities together: and what a divinity, then. On the one hand we have the mighty Zeus, the ruler of Olympus, the king of the gods of Ancient Greece. With his lightning bolts, Zeus dominates climatic events and intimidates the Titans with a single glance. On the other hand, there is Ra, the god of the sun worshiped in Egypt, from whom the pharaohs were said to have descended directly. Here: Wild Gods has as its protagonists Zeus and Amun-Ra, two divine beings who have only this in common. One might think that it is difficult to come up with a slot that is pleasing to the eye, and instead the designers of Leap Gaming have managed to create a concentrate of epicity like few we have seen before The most interesting thing about this game is that you decide which god to impersonate: whether the icy Zeus or the radiant Ra. Find out how by continuing to read our Wild Gods review.

From Greece to Egypt and back: Wild Gods overview

As soon as you start the Leap Gaming Wild Gods slot machine, you are prompted to make a choice. During the basic game the background of the reels and above all the Wild symbol that you can use will depend on this choice. If you prefer the sun god, Amun-Ra, behind your reels will be the expanse of the sands of Egypt with pyramids and Sphinxes. Your Wild symbol will be the Sun god. If you choose Zeus, on the background of the reels you will see Mount Olympus being shaken by the lightning bolts of the ruler of the gods, which will also be the Wild symbol that will help complete your winning combinations. Even the background music will be different, to help you immerse yourself more in your chosen setting.

For the rest, however, nothing else will change. The basic paytable is always the same, as is the game plan which consists of 5 reels arranged on 4 lines. The paylines on which you can try to complete combinations of the same symbols are 1024. Combinations are formed from left to right, with matching symbols appearing on adjacent reels. Find all the buttons you need to play on the right side of the screen. Play is the central button. holding it down activates the turbo. Above is autoplay, which you can set up to 99 spins. Below are the plus and minus buttons to increase or, conversely, decrease your bet. On the left, at the top, you see a switch-like button: by swiping right or left you can switch from one setting to another at any time.

Wild Gods: Standard Symbols and Special Symbols

Let's now take a look at the Wild Gods paytable, which, as we told you, is the same whatever god you choose in the beginning. J, Q, K and A are the lowest paying symbols, drawn in a curiously modern style. Goingup, we find icons that are somewhat reminiscent of both the settings adopted. There are the lyre, which the Muses play for the gods of Olympus, and the cup with which the ancient Egyptians made their libations to Ra. There is the combat helmet typical of Greek warriors, and the sacred ank, the symbol of power in Egypt. Finally, there are the highest paying symbols, which are, of course, Amun-Ra, Zeus and the two deities together. There special symbols: the Wild, the Scatter and finally the Bonus Gift of the Gods. The Wild, as we have anticipated, are two, depending on the god you prefer. They both have the distinction of expanding over the entire reel if they appear in a winning combination. At this point we just have to find out how the Scatter and the Bonus work.

Divine Free Spins: the features of Wild Gods

The Scatter is a golden eagle if the chosen divinity is Zeus, and a hawk if it is Ra. In any case, the effect on the game does not change.symbols appear Scatter on the reels, you get free spins. If the symbols are 3, the free spins are 7, with 4 Scatters you have 10 Free Spins and finally you have 15 with 5 Scatters. The peculiarity of the function is that it is played with a hybrid background, in which both Egypt and Greece appear, and the Wild symbols are both valid, both the one depicting Zeus and the one depicting Ra. Additionally, Scatter symbols may appear which give you an extra free spin. 

Finally, you will have noticed, on the left of the reels, a counter that marks 5 out of 100. This happens if you play for the first time, as 5 Bonuses are given to you. This is the counter for the Bonus Gift of the Gods symbols, which are blue flaming spheres if they come from Zeus, and fire red if they come from Amun-Ra. Each time they appear on the reels they increment the counter count. When the counter reaches 100 you win the "gift of the gods", which is a prize calculated on the basis of how much you have invested in the Wild Gods slot up to that point.
