Medusa II Slot - NZ Review, Demo Play, Payout, Free Spins & Bonuses

Are you ready for Medusa II?

The story of Medusa is one of a beautiful maiden transformed into an ugly monster with snakes for hair and green skin after she fell foul of the priestess Athena. This drastic punishment meant that any man Medusa glared at - and you have to imagine that there were many - was immediately turned to stone. The good news is that in this free slots game Medusa is once again absolutely gorgeous, although she still uses her good looks to captivate men before reducing them to statues!

A good-looking game

This video slot from innovative game maker Next Gen is set against a backdrop of a moody red sky and ancient Greek buildings, icons and swords, which contributes to the tense atmosphere. Danger lurks as players run the risk of Medusa’s gaze. In addition to the stunning portrait of Medusa herself, which becomes animated with each win, the symbols feature typical items you would expect to find in a story about Greek mythology, such as an engraved ring, arrows and a carry case, a soldier turned to stone, a two-headed snake and a helmet with a dragon entwined. The standard playing cards 10, J, Q, K and A also appear, drawn in a sharp, angular style typical of Greek lettering.

Payouts, bonuses and extras

With a staggering 243 ways to win, Medusa II is nothing if not generous, although individual payouts don’t seem terribly high. Medusa’s portrait pays the best, as revealing five of this image - which doubles as the wild and substitutes for all except the scatter - multiplies your win in that round by 500! Next best is scoring five images of the helmet, which will boost the win by 400 x. As usual, the playing card icons pay the least, with five matching images being worth 50 x; however, they compensate by appearing more often and boosting your balance. Look out for the symbols showing the Medusa II name, as three or more of these award you 10 free spins. This is another good way to rake in some extra credit. With each win comes the option to gamble, which you can take by clicking the playing card symbols on the row of control buttons. Go for a 50-50 red or black choice; alternatively, choose both the colour and the suit for a bigger reward. Success triggers a subsequent gamble or you can cash out and continue playing. Two other extras that make this game fun are the way Medusa icons lock two to five adjacent reels so that they spin together and the chance of Medusa turning her evil eye on an attacking soldier, turning him to stone and revealing a stack of wilds.

Play while mobile

There are no restrictions on where you can play Medusa II, as a mobile version is available alongside the traditional online game played on a computer. Whether you are on your sofa or on the move, this beautiful woman with dazzling eyes will be waiting to invite you into her world of mystery, danger and excitement whenever you play.
