Poseidon - Review, Demo Play, Payout, Free Spins & Bonuses

Introduction

There is no shortage of online slots games based around the theme of Poseidon, so what makes this offering from Spinomatic stand out from the crowd? The most obvious things are probably the game design and graphics - this is a stunningly well-designed slot with smooth gameplay. There is a free spins round, triggered by landing scatters, and a gamble feature that gives you the chance to increase your winnings after a successful spin.

Theme, Graphics & Soundtrack

Visually, this is a stunning slots game, with great attention to detail. The reels are set against the backdrop of Poseidon's underwater kingdom, and the background scene is animated to bring the entire game to life. The reels themselves are also striking, with animated symbols and intricate designs. Although many slots have animated symbols these days, Poseidon does this better than most. Gameplay is very smooth and fast - there is no jarring or lagging in this slot. The game has a very atmospheric feel to it, and this is complemented by the accompanying soundtrack. The movie-style music works well with the game, and the sound effects that accompany winning spins don't clash with the soundtrack in the way you might find in some other slots.

Bonus Features

The game's main - and really only - bonus feature is the free spins round. You can read all about this below.

Free Spins

The free spins round is triggered in the base game when you land three scatter symbols on reels 1, 3 and 5. The scatter can ONLY appear on these reels but can land anywhere on the reels in order to trigger the free spins. You'll be awarded 10 free spins. Once you are in the free spins game, the game continues similarly to in the base game, but with one special twist: the scatter symbol is now wild. This means you have the original game wilds and potentially extra wilds landing on each spin. Even better, the free spins can be re-triggered if three scatters (which now also act as wilds) land on reels 1, 3 and 5 again during the bonus round.

While this game could probably benefit from a few more special bonus features, the double wild feature in the free spins game is fun and can be extremely lucrative.

Our Verdict

7.5/10. This is certainly a stunning game and is smooth and intuitive to play. It's incredibly attractively designed, and even the soundtrack has been carefully thought through. The game does feel a little limited, though, after a while, and it's unlikely to hold your attention as long as some of the other slots out there with a higher number of special features and more immersive gameplay.
