Secrets of the Temple bonus features

- Secret mini-game and stacked wilds

A stack of golden wild symbols can sometimes land on the third reel. When this happens, there is a chance that you could trigger the secret mini-game. In this bonus round, you will have to pick from a selection of gold coins on the screen until you find three that match. Depending on which ones you have matched, you will win a jackpot - mini, minor, major or maxi.

The grand jackpot is also up for grabs, but this can only be won if you land map symbols on the first and fifth reels at the same time. Needless to say, this jackpot is extremely hard to land.

- Mystery symbol

Mystery symbols will transform into matching symbols when they land on the reels, which can help you to land more wins.

- Free spins

You will need to land three temple scatter symbols on the second, third and fourth reels to be awarded eight free spins. Each time you land another scatter on any of the five reels during your free spins, you will get another free spin to use in the game. This feature has the potential to be lucrative.

- Multiplier wilds

2x and 3x multiplier wilds can land on the third reel. Any wins that these wilds form part of will be multiplied by the number written on the symbol.

Our verdict

Secrets of the Temple is not a patch on the Lara Croft Temples and Tombs slot. The returns are average and the RTP is disappointing. While the bonus features are good and there you will find plenty to keep you entertained, the overall impression of the game is not great. We would say that this title is nothing more than your run of the mill slot that does not offer anything different to other slots that are currently available to play.
