Merkur Gaming have a new 2021 slot release, Medusa’s Eyes, which is themed on the legendary Medusa. Features, include sticky wilds, scatters, free spins, wilds and an RTP set at 96.31%.
Slot details
Medusa’s Eyes is a 5 reel, 3 row video slot with 243 ways to win and can be played across desktop, tablet and mobile devices. Wagering starts from just 10p per spin up to £20 per spin.The reels are set between stone pillars with archways which could be the entrance to a temple, all against a dark backdrop. According to Greek mythology, anyone that looked at Medusa would be turned into stone. The graphics are decent but nothing out of the ordinary.Symbols consist of low value 9 to Ace royals, a bag of coins, a Greek helmet, body armour, an urn and a statue of the winged horse Pegasus. The latter will pay out x50 your wager for 5 on a payline.
Gameplay
The wild symbol is the soldier and can substitute for all others barring the Medusa scatter.Landing 3, 4 or 5 of the Medusa scatters on a single spin will award you with 10, 15 or 20 free spins respectively, and each additional scatter landing during the feature will add 1 extra free spin to your total.Any soldier wild symbol appearing on the reels during the free spins feature, transforms into a sticky wild until the free spins are all used up.
Verdict
Overall this is a pretty decent game with average graphics, but I feel they could have done more with the actual design. The transforming wilds in the free spins feature is a welcome addition and can help you notch up some decent wins. You have the potential to pocket up to x1,000 your wager, so it is worth giving it a spin or 2.
