Plato’s legend of the sunken, lost city of Atlantis has captured imaginations for generations; in Legend of Atlantis, the five-reel, twenty-payline slot from Platipus Gaming, online slot gamers can join in the fun of this tradition, including as many as 30 free spins at a time.
Theme
A simple, royal purple background creates the atmosphere for this underwater kingdom: the design team chooses to focus less on the riches of this setting, and more on the people and creatures who live there.Gaming symbols include a trio of underwater royalty – an aged king, rakish prince, and commanding princess, all wearing crowns – as well as chests of gleaming gold, goldfish, and conches. The playing card values ace through ten act as lower-value symbols, while a tile with the image of the city itself acts as wild, appearing on reels two through five. A trident scatter symbol opens the way to free spins. An orchestral soundtrack lends gameplay an epic feel, with crashing symbols and soaring strings accompanying gameplay.
Betting Options and Functions
Platipus Gaming has been somewhat uneven in the quality of its releases of late – there have been some excellent titles, some middle-of-the-road offerings, and more than a few forgettable entries. Legend of Atlantis seems to fall somewhere in the middle of the pack, though an excellent attention to detail helps strengthen its case. There are 20 fixed paylines, all paying from left to right only. Bet per line can be set from 0.01–5.00, for an overall per-spin bet range of 0.20–100.00 times the betting currency. Autoplay is available for up to 1000 spins at a time, though players should exercise caution before choosing this option, as there are no optional loss limits available. A menu offers players sound options, paytable information, detailed game info, and hand history. Turbo play is also on offer for players who prefer a faster game tempo. The theoretical RTP sits below the industry average at 95.01%.
Features
Any time a stack of the same three symbols appears on the first reel, two automatic respins are awarded, with all symbols of the three that triggered the feature remaining in place. Newly appeared matching symbols also remain in place, with the ultimate goal of seeing the same symbol appear on all columns across all five reels, triggering all pay lines and a massive pay day.
Compared to many modern slots, the free spin feature here is very simple: the appearance of three or more scatters on consecutive reels awards 10, 20, or 30 free spins. There are no special elements unique to free spins, although scatter symbols will remain on the reels during the feature, extending the bonus.
Our Take
Though players might wish that the intoxicating imaginary world of Atlantis would spur Platipus Gaming to a more original slot, and though one might wish for higher RTP, Legend of Atlantis is nevertheless a well-built game sure to appeal to players. All criticism tends to disappear when as many as 30 free spins are awarded.
