Achilles Slot Machine Demo » RTG

Achilles is a video slot machine from Real Time Gaming – and as you can probably gather from the name, is centred all around Greek Mythology, a common theme in online video slots today and one that we’ve seen successfully replicated by almost all major game developers.

While Achilles isn’t the most – graphically speaking – impressive slot machine in the world, this is more than made up for because there’s a whopping progressive jackpot to be found within the game. This we’ll cover a little later in this post, but it’s worth pointing out now so that you know what to expect.

The game is built using a 5-reel, 3-row format, and you’ll find an adjustable 20 pay-lines to take advantage of. It’s worth noting that the more lines you play (and the higher your stake), the better your chances of winning the progressive jackpot.

So just bear this in mind if that’s one of the sole reasons for you playing. We’ll look at the features and bonuses (which will cover the details surrounding the progressive jackpot), so, without further ado, let’s get started!

Game Features

The main attraction – aside from the progressive jackpots, of course – is the free spins bonus, and this is triggered by landing 3, 4, or 5 of the scatter symbols anywhere in view.

Once you manage to do so, you’ll be awarded a relatively conservative number of spins (25) – and while that may seem quite low for an RTG slot, it’s well worth pointing out that during the free spins round, you’ll enjoy a handful of in-game features, including wild multipliers, and scattered symbols.

Now, we can tell you’re eager to learn more about the progressive jackpot side of things – so let’s get right into that next. There is one main progressive jackpot you can win, known as the “Random Jackpot”. You can view the current amount of the jackpot at the top of the reel set (just above the Achilles logo), and this jackpot is won purely by chance.

There’s no bonus round to hit to win it – and during any spin in the base game (the free spins round, unfortunately, doesn’t count), the random jackpot can trigger, which awards you the total jackpot amount, which is then credited straight to your balance!

Other than the free spins and the progressive jackpot, there’s not much going on. There’s no bonus round feature like we’re used to seeing in the vast majority of RTG’s titles, but combined, they make for exciting gameplay, and it’s not hard to see why the slot’s become a developer’s most popular releases to date.
