Raiders of The Hidden Realm slot summary
Raiders of The Hidden Realm slot is a Playtech title which is based on a fictional group of super heroes. An unusual move for this particular developer who tends to lock in big licensing deals with globally iconic brands. Examples being the DC Comics slots like Superman 2 and Batman Begins. However, these particular super heroes have to tell there story through the game. The sounds and graphics are very futuristic, reminding me a little of Kaiju slot from Elk Studios, So will these space-age super heroes serve our balance well or will we be wishing we had never encountered these fantasy figures?
On the reels…
This slot is a 5 reel, 4 row game with a total of 40 paylines. There are stacked symbols all over the reels, which can offer bigger winning possibilities. Our 3 raiders include Morgana (Purple), Strider (Blue) and Sparks (Green), who are all beautifully animated, play significant roles in this slot. Along with the Wilds, they offer the biggest reward for a 5-of-a-kind (5OAK) - Morgana 500 coins, Strider 250 coins and Sparks 250 coins. Other picture symbols include orbs and crystals offering 50 - 150 coins for a 5OAK. Lastly the coloured shapes make up the lowest paying symbols with 20-30 coins for a 5OAK.
Raiders Shuffle
This feature is triggered when a raider is fully stacked on reel 1 and then the same character is partially stacked on reel 5. The raiders symbol from reel 1 and 5 will rise up, turn Wild and then shuffle across all the reels offering some winning potential.
Raiders free spins
Should you land a fully stacked raider on reel 1 and the same raider fully stacked on reel 5 then you will trigger the free spins feature. Each raider offers a different reward, which are as follows:
Morgana free spins - You get 8 free spins with extra Morgana symbols added to the reels through the feature, creating more winning opportunities.
Strider free spins - You are rewarded with 7 free spins, with all Wilds freezing in position and remaining for remainder of the feature.
Sparks free spins - This offers 6 free spins with any Sparks symbols landing in the feature will turn Wild and have a multiplier added up to 5x.
Our View…
Raiders of The Hidden Realm is an interesting slot for several reasons. It is refreshing to see Playtech taking a chance with some unknown super hero characters and the creativity definitely comes across in the design, music and gameplay. The RTP is very reasonable at 96.28% and I would suggest that the game is medium volatility. Rewards can be a little fleeting until you hit one of the features, but when they come in, they can be pretty impressive. I can certainly see these super hero raiders getting a solid following in time…
