Medusa's Golden Gaze Slot - Demo, Free Play, No Registration -

Introduction

Medusa’s Golden Gaze by 2by2Gaming combines immersive Greek mythology theming with multiple game features across a traditional 5 X 3 grid. 

 
Theme, Graphics & Soundtrack 

Medusa’s Golden Gaze certainly packs a visual punch with its high-definition graphics. As mythology themed slot games go this one is pretty impressive looking. Medusa herself is in perpetual motion at the side of the reels, with her hair of snakes and shiny jewels as she shimmers in tones of green and gold. The symbols are all easily distinguishable and feature shields, ancient Greek artefacts, warriors and helmets. 

The plain black reels allow the symbols to stand out and sit against a backdrop of a Greek landscape complete with columns, sculptures and Greek architecture underneath a purple sky. The symbols shimmer when involved in a win-line and each of the higher paying symbols has its own animation such as the hissing snakes in Medusa’s hair.

The soundtrack is suitably dramatic, non-intrusive and complements the theme well, allowing the graphics and multiple features to steal the show.

Overall thoughts: Medusa's Golden Gaze Review

Medusa’s Golden Gaze by 2by2 gaming certainly delivers on the action front with some amazing bonuses on offer. However, the bonus can be difficult to trigger and there is no guarantee that the balance will last long enough to trigger a feature. For fans of Medusa style games, and bonus rich games, it is certainly worth a look but give serious consideration to staking levels to maximise the playing session.
