Spartacus Megaways

Spartacus Megaways Slot Review

SG Digital’s gladiatorial adventure lies within the same family of Spartacus: Legendary Warrior and Spartacus: Gladiator of Rome, sticking to the gladiator theme. The Megaways system brings quite a change to the slot, but the overall aesthetic has remained mostly the same as in previous entries. While this might not necessarily be a deal-breaker, it is quite disappointing to see that not much effort has gone into making Spartacus Megaways stand out from its predecessors. With that being said, the features that this Megaways version packs are quite literally a game changer and we’ll delve into them below.

Spartacus Megaways Bonus Features

The video slot features implemented in Spartacus Megaways may not seem like the most innovative thing on paper, but its their brilliant implementation that makes them the highlight of this gladiatorial arena.

Wilds

The Wild symbols in Spartacus Megaways are represented by the hero himself, sporting a (rather historically inaccurate) Spartan helmet and unsheathed sword. The symbols perform their general duty of substituting themselves for all symbols that will help gain a winning combination and can appear on reels 2 to 5. In the Free Spins mode, Wilds expand to cover the entire reel, greatly augmenting the presence of the legendary Thracian warrior.

Scatter Symbol

Your keys to the Free Spins mode are represented with the Amphitheatre symbol on your reels. Three of these symbols will do the trick and let you into the bonus game mode.

Free Spins

With all 3 Scatter symbols in hand, your Free Spins mode is activated. First up, two reels will spin, to determine the amount of free spins you’ll get and the curtain configuration which will be locked for the duration of Free Spins mode.

In this mode, awards remain the same as in the base game, although Wild symbols will expand here to cover up the entire reel. Three more Ampitheatre symbols will top up your free spins to keep your bonus going on for a while longer!

Curtain Feature

Throughout both the base game and free spins, a red curtain will adorn the top section of your reels, effectively blotting out a portion of the reels. This means that any symbols that land behind the curtains will not be in effect. Should you manage to land a winning combination the blast of the winning symbols will uncover parts of the curtain, helping you land a potentially bigger win.

The curtain’s configuration is randomly changed with every spin and never exceeds more than half of your reels.

Bottom Reel Feature

An additional bottom reel is in play, covering reels 2-5 and adding the number of Megaways on the board. The bottom reel spins horizontally and is a worthy ally in your fight for the ultimate winning combination.

Spartacus Megaways Jackpot

Although it may be considered a key feature for some players, Spartacus Megaways lacks a jackpot feature to raise the tension up a notch, but the slot’s highly volatile nature will still keep you on your toes.

RTP & Volatility

Spartacus Megaways is not for the faint of heart and carries a return to player rate of 96.32%, making it a highly volatile challenge to take on.

Where to Play Spartacus Megaways

The glory of the gladiatorial games can be witnessed on most licensed casinos although, if you’re looking to have a round or two at this gratuitous blood sport, we recommend heading over to Betsson. Alternatively, you could even opt for Temple Nile and Videoslots.

Spartacus Megaways on Mobile

With both desktop and mobile compatibility, the fight never stops, and Spartacus Megaways can be enjoyed anywhere at any time. You’ll be happy to hear that it’s optimized for both Android and iOS devices.
