Secrets of Atlantis Slot Review

More Details on Secrets of Atlantis Slot Game

Atlantis is a fictional island created by the Greek philosopher, Plato in his work, Timaeus, and Critias. Although it only played a minor role in an allegory about nationhood, the ‘lost world’ has intrigued academics and those with nothing better to do for hundreds of years.

In August of 2016, Netent stunned nobody in the industry by releasing the cunningly titled, Secrets of Atlantis. For the first time (or possibly the second, third or fourth), the mythical island was again thrust into the public’s consciousness by way of a casino slot.

What Features Does Secrets of Atlantis Have?

Following an elaborate intro in which players are taken beneath the waves to an undersea city, the main game window opens. Apart from a rough-looking mermaid who looks like she’s just eaten a bad shrimp, the visuals look smooth and crisp.

All symbols are suitably nautical and include a clam, a jellyfish and a turtle. To our stunned amazement, not a single playing card motif could we find anywhere on the reels.

Once we’d recovered our composure, it also became apparent that Secrets of Atlantis doesn’t actually include a scatter. To compensate, the game offers a ‘nudge wild’ function, which is represented by the off-colour mermaid. Covering four positions on any of the reels, it can appear both fully or partially and is nudged up or down until it covers a reel fully.

A ‘highlight feature' is also available which randomly highlights positions on the second, third and fourth reels. If it covers reels two, three, and four, the Secrets of Atlantis free spins bonus game is activated.

Special Bonus Features

The Colossal Symbols Re-load bonus game merges reels two, three and four into a 3*4 block. This transforms into one large symbol. Players are then awarded a single free spin which sometimes (but seldomly) results in big pay-outs. Should the ‘highlight’ feature appear, another free spin is awarded. If a wild symbol lands between the reels, it may be nudged up and down as with the base game.

Secrets of Atlantis Free Play

Free Secrets of Atlantis slots can be found on a fair collection of online casinos. As with all titles, Secret of Atlantis no deposit games must be exactly the same as the real paid versions in terms of gameplay and pay-outs. This is a strict requirement of reputable regulators who have very specific rules about demo slots.

Our Secrets of Atlantis Review Summary

Both the Secrets of Atlantis mobile game and desktop version are visually pleasing, as one would expect from a NetEnt casinos website, even if the animations are kept to a minimum. The omission of a scatter feature is a shame and blunts the gameplay to a certain extent. However, a wide betting range of between $0.20 and $200 means that Secrets of Atlantis should have something for both casual and serious players. The bonus game is quite original too.

Pros

• Re-spin feature with Colossus symbols
• Nudge Wilds guarantee a full stack of Wilds
• Wins Both Ways
• Higher than average RTP of 97.10%

Cons

• Medium volatility and the 1600x maximum jackpot may not appeal to high rollers
• There is no free spins multiplier
• Only one re-spin is awarded (although re-spins can be re-triggered)
