Fortunes Of Sparta Slots Review

The legendary Spartan army is the theme of this exciting online slot from Blueprint Gaming; the Spartans were great warriors and occupied parts of what is now Greece more than two thousand years ago. This game is called Fortunes Of Sparta and it features some top notch graphics and the chance to win up to 100 free spins.

Fortunes Of Sparta is a five reel slot with three rows and twenty fixed paylines; there’s a blood-red aspect to the game’s design which is enhanced by the dramatic background music which features a haunting female voice. Two columns prop up the edifice which contains the reels.

There are nine high value symbols – they’re all very military and include two different Spartan warriors, a female, a ship, a helmet, a breastplate, a shield, crossed swords and an urn.

The wild symbol is a large temple, the bonus icon is fiery ‘Omega’ sign and there’s a Spartan Streak symbol on the middle reel – the latter two activate extra features.

Bonus Features

Spartan Streak

The Spartan Streak icon appears only on the centre reel but if you can land it there it will expand to cover the entire reel; it will now remain in place for one free respin as long as a win is formed. Any new symbols adding to that win will award one more free spin and this will continue until no more matching symbols land.

Spartan Spins

This is triggered by landing three or more of the Omega scatter symbols anywhere in view; there are plenty on the reels and this means there are plenty of spins up for grabs:

• Three scatters – 8 spins
• Four scatters – 10 spins
• Five scatters – 12 spins
• Six scatters – 15 spins
• Seven scatters – 20 spins
• Eight/Nine scatters – 50 spins
• Ten+ scatters – 100 spins

The big plus point here is that the Spartan Streak feature is active throughout, meaning that during all your free spins any winning combos will remain in place with the potential for some big wins.

Verdict

Fortunes Of Sparta is an all-action slot which looks and sounds great; it’s probably fair to say that any big wins come from the bonus features which are a little tough to trigger, but not impossible. This game is well worth checking out.
