Achilles Slots
We all have an Achilles heel in each foot, but we know the term in another way too. It tells of a weakness thanks to the story behind Achilles, but there is no need to know much about that to have a great time trying this slot game. If you fancy trying it, hang back for just a few more minutes while you read our report on this game.
Developer information for the Achilles online slot game
You may recognize the brand RTG. They're behind the creation of this slot game.
You can try it first as well
The demo version is ideal as an introduction to the game itself, so make sure you check that out first.
Theme details for the Achilles slot
You can probably work out these details without any issues, thanks to the famous Trojan War story with the horse that wasn't a horse! All these elements roll into this slot game too.
Don't expect a modern or polished design
The slot game has been wowing players for a few years now and is still popular today. However, its age means you will see more basic elements instead of striking modern graphics.
What to expect from the Achilles slots: The basics
This is a five-reel slot game with Achilles taking on the substitute role throughout. He also pays out wild prizes whenever two or more land on the screen. The only symbol he won't substitute for is the scattered city of Troy.
Paylines in play in the Achilles slot game
There are 20 in this game, and since they're not fixed, you can choose how many you'd like to play. Be aware, though, that deselecting some of them means you can't get prizes on those lines.
Did you know this is a penny slot?
That's the cheapest bet per line here, meaning you can cover everything for as little as 20 cents a go. The largest coin size is 25 cents.
Looking for help to find the paytable
That is a clue, as you need to spot the help command to go through to the paytable. This is one of several options revealed by that first help command.
Don't expect to land any bonuses in this slot game
Don't be disappointed though, it's not all bad news. Just wait until you read the next section.
Free spins in two ways?
Yes, you can find the wild Achilles icon three or more times to trigger the first round of spins. The icons remain in view until you choose one. This will show you 15, 20, or even 25 spins to play. All appearances of the Troy symbol change into wild Achilles or the high-paying Helen icon in these spins. Prizes always receive a 3x boost when paid, and you can find more wilds to get more free games, too.
The second way to receive some free spins is to find three or more scattered Troy symbols in view. All prizes given in these spins - 10 of them, in this case - would be worth twice the usual values. You can get 10 more spins too by finding three Troy or Achilles icons in a spin - and yes, that means you can get a mix of each to earn more spins.
RTP details don't appear
It seems that the return to player information is decided by whichever casino offers the game. So, we cannot give a firm value here.
How high is our rating for this slot?
We think this should be 8.5 points out of 10, thanks to the chance of two sets of free spins, each with their own unique features.
The prize potential is best when landing lots of wilds
Find five Achilles symbols on the same paid payline and you'll get a cool 10,000x your bet back on that line.
It's possible to play this for demo purposes only, remember
We played until we got both the free spin triggers, so we could see how they worked. We suggest you spend some time in the demo mode too if you can.
