Unfortunately, Secrets of Atlantis is no longer available at Wombat Casino. Sorry about that! Have you tried Atlantis Rising?
The wombat says: The legend of the Lost City of Atlantis has inspired this nice-looking slot by NetEnt. It’s another visual feast from the designers of the Dracula slot and Guns ‘n Roses.
According to the myth of old, the city was submerged by a great fire and massive earthquakes by the Greek Gods, just before people started playing on the Gladiator of Rome slot, I guess.
It turns out they were angry at the people of Atlantis for becoming a greedy immoral bunch ( I wonder what they’d make of this Wombat…) Anyway, the city soon disappeared under the waves, and was never seen again. Dive into this underwater slot, and see if you can’t discover the fabled city and scoop up some of its untold sunken riches!
This is one of a long line of games inspired by the legends of old. Other examples include the Thunderstruck slot machine (that’s Thor, not AC/DC), Robin Hood and Aztec Secrets.
Secrets of Atlantis Game Play
I know what you’re thinking Wombat fans.. ‘Great, another underwater slot’, but don’t be so cynical! The Secrets of Atlantis slot has the added benefit of ‘win both ways’ game-play which always spices things up, and also features some interesting bonuses, too.
Made up of 5 reels, with 4 rows and 40 pay lines, your symbols on the reels obviously take on a marine-life theme. They include: an glitzy-looking oyster, a ruby-jewelled crab and an emerald gem Turtle as your high value symbols, plus a Jellyfish, another crab (the kind you find with avocado in a sandwich), and a friendly Turtle, as your lower payouts. The oyster is the most valuable symbol on the screen, and landing 5 of these on a winning pay line will get you 400x times your bet. The ethereal mermaid is the game’s Wild, and this looker will substitute for any symbol in order to complete your winning combos.
Colossal Symbols
Secrets of Atlantis slot has the colossal symbols feature. New to these? Ok, then let’s explain what they are. It’s when a symbol expands in size taking over several different positions on the reels. ‘But what does that mean for my wallet?’ I hear you ask. Well, as the Colossal Symbols take up a 3 x 4 tile area in the centre of your reels, you’ll get more chances of scooping those winning combos – and you might even get a re-spin!
So how do you trigger them? Well, in this slot, reels 2,3,4 have a highlight feature, where the middle reels are highlight on and off every time you spin. If you land all symbols as highlighted, a Colossal Symbol Re-Spin is triggered.
What’s more, if you get Colossal Stacked Wilds on the reels during a Colossal Re-Spin, then the Colossal Stacked Wild is nudged up or down to cover the 3 middle reels. Sounds complicated? Check out the Pay-table for more details or simply give it a spin.
Mermaid Nudge Wild
If any part of the Mermaid Wild appears on the reels during a Colossal symbols Re-spin, the rest of her will ‘nudge’ into place too, creating one fully wild reel for your spinning pleasure. Sweeett!
Mobile Mermaid
As with most of the best Net Ent slots these days, the mobile Secrets of Atlantis slot version (they call these their “Touch” games) looks and plays like a dream, so go ahead and try it on your iPhone or your iPad if you are one of those fanboys or fangirls. Otherwise, power it up on your Android device.
Conclusion
The game’s graphics are gorgeous and Net Ent really pushed the boat out when recreating this mythical city. OK, there aren’t any free spins or extra rounds in Secrets of Atlantis slot, but the Colossal Symbols and Re-Spin really do make up for this. Overall a nice game with some unusual extras that’s worth a punt.
