Atlantis Throne Hold and Win rises from a sunken city of white marble towers, domed rooftops and waterfalls spilling into turquoise pools. Golden statues hold up the frame, and above the reels sit portraits of three heroes: a silver-bearded king, a crowned queen and a red-skinned warrior. My session ran at 1.00 per spin with 500 in the balance.
Theme and Gameplay
Regular pays come from cut gemstones in blue, purple, red and amber, with pearl-and-gold orbs as another symbol. The jackpot crests flank the hero portraits: Mini x10, Minor x50, Major x200 and Grand x500. A large golden Bonus emblem hangs to the right, while a lightning-badged bonus purchase button is on the left.
Slot Features
Matching gems that line up across touching reels from reel 1 pay in any row. Each Multiplier symbol is tinted in one of three colours; they pay nothing directly, but any on screen gives its colour’s feature a chance to fire, and three of one colour guarantee it. Red is Power Up, multiplying every Multiplier and Collector value by a fixed amount. Blue is Charged Reel, which covers a whole reel in Multiplier Frames. Green is Collector, which places a symbol that scoops up all Multiplier values, frame boosts included. More than one can trigger together.
Any Bonus symbol landing may lead to the Bonus Stage, which opens with 3 spins, using just reels 2 to 4. Just Multipliers and Collectors land there, and each new arrival puts the spins back to 3. Frames multiply whatever sits in their cell at the finish, and a second frame landing in that cell raises the existing value. Three Atlantis Hero symbols bring extra effects, and filling all 18 cells pays the whole grid a second time.
RTP and Win Potential
In-game bonuses cost 60x the base stake to buy, with the Bonus Stage priced at 100x. Frame multipliers, stacked features and a double-pay full grid push volatility high.
My Thoughts On This Slot
Atlantis Throne is a polished, colourful respin game. The colour-matched features liven up ordinary spins, while the cross-shaped grid gives the Bonus Stage a neat compact shape.
The jackpot ladder tops out lower than some rivals, and the three hero effects take a little learning.
