300 Shields Mighty Ways - Review, Demo Play, Payout, Free Spins & Bonuses

Introduction 

300 Shields Mighty Ways is one of the slot games designed by designer Light and Wonder. It initially presents on a 5x3 reel set which begins with 729 bet ways which pay left to right. 

When a winning combination lands an avalanche of symbols replace the winning symbols which disappear from the reels. For every winning symbol, the reel it lands on will increase by +1 for the next avalanche which means the reels can reach a ceiling of x8 rows potentially creating a staggering 262,444 Mighty Ways to win. 

At the start of each new game the reel set reverts to 729 lines. The warrior symbol is a wild which substitutes for all other symbols apart from the scatter shield symbol. The wild appears on all but the first reel and adds multipliers in free games.

The latter are triggered by the scatter when three, four or five appear. When six land, super free games are awarded. There is a buy feature which allows you to purchase either free games or super free spins.

You will find more examples of a Light and Wonder online slot here at Slots Temple amongst the many video slots available in demo mode.

Theme, Graphics and Soundtrack 

This is one of the many slot games based on a Hollywood movie, in this case the 2006 epic 300. The film itself drew on the 1998 comic of the same name which depicted the Battle of Thermopylae during the Greco-Persian Wars.

There are five top value military symbols supported by six lower value cards. All are well designed, and the reels sit against a backdrop of riverbanks where the war for wins will take place.

The soundtrack is an orchestral theme worthy of the original movie.

300 Shields Mighty Ways RTP and Variance
