Published May 5, 2018 by Elana K
NetEnt has produced yet another intriguing, fun slot, with a base-game that's loaded with randomly-triggered features and a special Free Spins feature that holds hidden treasure chests.
NetEnt’s new release, Lost Relics, takes players on an intrepid journey in search of ancient treasures. As you would expect of any NetEnt slot, the graphics are superb and the game is packed with base game features as well as a worthwhile Free Spins feature.
Slot Specs
Lost Relics is a 5-reel, 5-row slot that’s compatible with all devices. Bets range from 20p to £400 per spin and the game has an RTP of 96.30%.
You can score wins by getting clusters of 6 or more like symbols horizontally or vertically. Symbols include ancient-looking hearts, spades, clubs, and dusty-looking artifacts. The snake wrapped around a ruby and the bracelet are the highest paying symbols, with rewards up to 300x your stake when 25 land on the grid.
Base Game Features
There are 3 base-game features that are randomly triggered when you score a win: Coin Win, Extra Wild, and Extra Scatter.
- Coin Win: One winning symbol can grant a cash prize between 3-30x your original stake, for a max win of up to 150x your stake altogether.
- Extra Wild: 3 extra wilds randomly appear on the reels in positions that were not part of the winning cluster that triggered the feature. If this feature is triggered 5 times, you’ll get 15 extra wilds added to the reels.
- Extra Scatter: One of the symbols that’s part of the winning combo will give you 1-3 extra scatters on the reels.
Free Spins
The Free Spins feature is the main appeal of Lost Relics, and it’s triggered when scatters land on reels 1, 3, and 5 at the same time. Due to the Extra Scatter feature, your chances of triggering the Free Spins round are fairly high, and once triggered, you’ll immediately be rewarded with 10 free spins.
In addition to 10 free spins, this feature also comes with Hidden Chests, which are hidden from view beneath a few reels. When you get a winning cluster, the spaces are uncovered and the chests are revealed. These chests contain more free spins, sticky wilds, and coins, making it a truly profitable round.
Bottom Line
NetEnt has produced yet another intriguing, fun slot, and it’s no surprise that both the graphics and soundtrack are perfectly suited to the theme. As for gameplay, it’s a pleasure to have a base game that’s loaded with randomly-triggered features, but it’s even more of a pleasure to have a Free Spins round that offers treasure-filled prizes.
You can play lost Relics at NetEnt-powered online casinos.
