Olympus Infinity Reels Review
This game is quite similar to the developer's previous Infinity Reels title. While it explores Greek mythology, the visuals are somewhat appealing.
Mythological characters such as cyclops, minotaurs, and Medusa appear on the reels, and the base game includes random multiplier spins. The bonus round system is somewhat complex, but it mainly involves the incrementally increasing multiplier. The biggest drawback is the relatively low potential, but bonus round wins can be gambled for a higher reward.
Olympus Infinity Reels Features
The wild symbol substitutes for all regular symbols to help form winning combinations. A new reel is added on the right if you land a winning combination with 5 or more matching symbols. If the added reel improves the winning combination, another reel is added, and so on until you land a non-winning reel.
A progressive win multiplier starts at x1 and increases by +1 for each new reel added. There is no upper limit, and adding at least 12 reels in a single sequence awards a bonus. The progressive multiplier does not apply to this bonus.
At random times in the base game, a special spin might be awarded. This awards a random multiplier for that spin only. However, this multiplier also applies to the bonus if triggered in the same sequence.
When you land a win with the scatter symbol, you can spin the Bonus Round reel. You can reject the bonus wheel spin offered to play for a better one, as there are 2 higher tiers to unlock. The higher tiers increase your chances of landing a better bonus round from the 12-segment bonus wheel, and it works as follows:
- Tier 1 = Multiple regular free spins segments + 1 super spin segment.
- Tier 2 = Fewer regular segments and multiple super spins segments + 1 mega spin segment.
- Tier 3 = Super spins segments and mega spins segments.
You get a set number of free spins no matter the feature tier, and super spins come with at least 1 guaranteed wild on the second reel. Mega spins come with at least 2 wilds on reel 2, and the progressive multiplier does not reset between spins during the bonus round. It increments by a certain amount per added reel, and the increments increase by landing winners and decrease by non-winning spins.
Landing a win with the scatter symbol retriggers the bonus round with additional spins, and you can choose to gamble your bonus round winnings for higher rewards. Purchasing a bonus wheel spin is possible, and the RTP improves.
The Experience
The infinity reels engine can leave you with an unsatisfactory feeling. However, approaching each new release with an open mind is important.
Review Summary
While the visual presentation is above average, the game itself is similar to a previous release. The potential has been lowered since the previous release. The only way to win anything significant is to take your chances with the bonus round gamble feature.
The whole bonus round system seems complicated, and there is little to convince anyone who isn't already a fan of this engine. The engine's biggest problem is the feeling of never getting closure, and you can't even win significant amounts without risking it all in a gamble feature.
