Zodiac (Eurasian) - Review, Demo Play, Payout, Free Spins & Bonuses

Introduction

EURASIAN Gaming free slots started to get noticed on casino sites around the world as soon as the company launched their intensive development programme a few years ago. They are rapidly expanding their portfolio to cover some fairly diverse territory: just look at the difference between Zodiac and something like EURASIAN's Chilli Hunter slot and you’ll get a measure of their versatility. Eurasian demo slots can usually be relied on to deliver some quality features.

Zodiac has a five-reel grid with three rows and five pay lines. The minimum line bet is 0.01 and the maximum is 2.00. There are 10 regular symbols: Virgo, Scorpio, Sagittarius, Capricorn, Aquarius, Aries, Taurus, Pisces, Leo and Cancer. The wild is the entire zodiacal table, and the scatter is a crystal ball.

Theme, Graphics and Soundtrack

Suitably spacey music accompanies this game - early Pink Floyd offcuts come to mind. The backdrop is simpler than most Eurasian games, as it is simply a space vortex of some kind with distant galaxies in the background. The Zodiac signs are beautifully realised, although it isn’t clear why Libra and Gemini are missing. A lovely piece of graphic design.

Zodiac (Eurasian) RTP and Variance

Unfortunately, there is no reliable information either on the RTP or on the variance of Eurasian’s Zodiac.

How to Play Zodiac (Eurasian)

1. Click - or + to select the total bet.
2. Press Spin to spin the reels with the current bet. Alternatively, you can press the space bar to spin.
3. If you click Power, you give yourself the option to enable the Buy-Bonus Feature and to enable Fast Play. Fast play is not the same as turbo play, which is not available in this game. Fast play simply delivers rapid wheel spins for the selected number of times, and the progress is hidden behind the front screen with only the final result made visible. The feature stops if a bonus is triggered.
4. For auto play mode press the Auto button, then select the number of spins to auto-play from 10 to infinity or until Free Spins is triggered.
5. You can end the automatic game by pressing the stop button to the right of the spin button.
6. Click on Info to open the reference page, which describes the different game components.
7. All wins pay left to right. Wins on different lines are added. Only the highest win on each line is paid.
8. The wild substitutes for all symbols and only appears on reels 2 and 4.
9. Three, four or five scatters landing on adjacent reels from left to right will trigger the free spins bonus - 10, 15 or 20 spins respectively. Scatter wins are added to all other wins.
10. Don't forget to gamble responsibly. When it stops being fun, you should stop playing.

Zodiac Bonus Features

Gamble Feature

To gamble any win press the Gamble button. You then need to choose red or black. If the card turns and you have chosen correctly, your bet is doubled; if not, you lose your winnings. If you win, you may continue to gamble up to five times. The gamble feature can be enabled or disabled in the settings menu. The gamble feature is not available during autoplay. If you choose not to gamble, click the tick rather than Gamble.

Free Spins Feature

At the start of the free spins bonus you must choose one of the 12 available zodiac signs. The sign you choose will be assigned the highest win multiplier value of 12x. Then, going clockwise, each sign will be assigned a win multiplier that is one below the previous sign. When a spin symbol appears in a winning combination, a sign will be selected at random and its assigned multiplier will be applied to the win. If two wheels land in a winning combination, the randomly selected multipliers of each will be multiplied together and applied to the win up to a maximum value of 144x.

Zodiac (Eurasian) Review: Our Verdict

This is a relatively straightforward game which looks good and plays well., Special mention must be made of the Zodiac wheel in the Free Spins feature, which is a very clever variation on multipliers and lets the player influence both the look and the operation of this bonus round. The grid is a bit small, but this is by no means fatal to enjoyment.
