Secret of the Stones is a five-reel 25 payline video slot created by Net Entertainment. Players can stake from 25p to £125 per spin, making it a great choice for all budgets.
Theme
This slot takes players back in time to the mystical world of ancient Druids; Celtic priests who are said to have built and prayed in stone circle gardens. The action on the reels takes place inside one of these stone constructions and while the theme may sound a bit grey and drab, the designers have brightened up the scene by giving the game a fresh, turquoise and blue colour scheme. The high value symbols are denoted by animal features set into Celtic style carvings. The traditional letters and numbers make up the lower value icons. The Druid is the wild symbol, which substitutes for all other icons, while the tree acts as the scatter.
Free Spins Round
Landing three or more of the tree scatter symbols on the reels activates the free spins round. Players are initially awarded 10 free spins. You’ll be transported to a field of 20 stones for a picking game. The number of stones you get to pick is determined by the number of scatter symbols triggered the round. The Druid stands to the side and as you make your choices he bangs his staff on the ground to reveal what’s behind the stone. You could uncover further free spins, multipliers or extra wilds. If you’re lucky you can turn the whole of reel two and/or reel four wild for as long as the round lasts.
Verdict
Secret of the Stones has a very cool theme and the eerie soundtrack goes a long way to creating the right atmosphere. The game is simple enough to get to grips with easily yet has a few little extras thrown in to make sure players don’t get bored too quickly. The picking game at the beginning of the free spins round is a nice touch that can lead to some pretty decent wins.
