Atlantis Online Slot is based on the lost city of Atlantis has captured imaginations for thousands of years. The legend has been brought to life in literature, film, television and this three reel one payline video slot from Microgaming.
Theme
The theme of the game is presented through a sunken treasure chest spilling its riches over the seabed. In the background we can see some architecture from the lost city. The symbols in Atlantis generally take the form of classic slot machine icons with a 3-bar, 2-bar and 1-bar display. However, the developer has had some fun with the other symbols; the clamshells and the seahorse shaped number seven. The reels are set to the left of the screen while on the right there is a handy guide to potential combinations and their winnings, just like you see on traditional machines.
Game play
Players can enjoy Atlantis from 25p to £10 per spin, making the slot perfect for all pockets. The Treasure Chest icon is the Wild Symbol and can substitute for other symbols to create winning combinations but also acts as a multiplier. Whenever a winning combination is created using the treasure chest icon, the cash prize awarded will be doubled. Bigger wins can also be achieved using the wild symbol as a 4x multiplier is applied to winning combinations where the wild symbol is used twice. Players lucky enough to have three wilds appear on the reels at any one time will be awarded a prize of 800 or 1,600 coins.
Verdict
Atlantis is one of Microgaming’s classics and as such has an authentic feel of playing a real live slot rather than an online game. The graphics and sound effects combine to give a genuine casino experience. While there are no bonus features to boost winnings, they wouldn’t really fit with the old-school feel of the slot. The game itself doesn’t take long at all to get to grips with, with a simple layout and clear game play making it easy to enjoy.
