Play Aztecs for Free

In order to begin your Aztec adventure, you need to decide on your bet. You can play as many or as few of the 20 available paylines as you choose each spin. This gives great flexibility and enables low and high rollers to personalise their play. The betting range is from €0.01 to €0.50 per payline each spin, giving a maximum total bet of €10.00. This might not be high enough for the highest rollers, but should suit most low and middle rolling players.

Other options here include a bet max button which lets you easily place the maximum bet without having to click through the paylines and coin values. There is also an autospin feature which allows players to play up to 100 spins automatically and set their own max loss and max win limits.

The theme of this slot machine is the Aztec culture with the background transporting you into the mysterious world. There is a sunny forest with lush trees and plants, stone pillars with Aztec engravings, an ornament in the corner and a little fat character at the side of the screen who watches your spins with great interest. This tribal man is dressed in colourful feathered headdress, full body paint and a brown loincloth. He sometimes does a dance as you play and sways his arms and huge belly in pleasure!

This game does not have regular reels but something much more interesting. Instead, the symbols fall from the top of the screen and any symbols that complete a winning combination explode to be replaced by new symbols. The winning symbols keep exploding to be replaced until no more new wins appear.

The highest paying symbol here is the wild stone symbol. This icon is a square of stone that features the world ‘wild’ on the front and if you hit 5 of these symbols you receive 200 coins. This symbol also stands in for the other symbols in the game, except the scatter icon, to create more potential winning combinations.

The second-best paying symbol is the turquoise blue mask, which pays up top 50 coins for 5 symbols, while the third-best symbols are the colourful faces with the hats, which both pays 30 coins for 5 symbols. Next down the paytable are the blue round face and the face with its tongue sticking out, which both pay up to 25 coins, while the pink circle face and the purple square face both pay up to 20 coins for 5 symbols. Finally, the face profile with the horns pays up to 15 coins for 5 matching symbols.

After any winning spin you can enjoy a random multiplier award. These awards are listed at the bottom of the screen as 1x, 2x, 3x and 4x and a light flashes across each multiplier until it stops on one of the awards to select it. A flash of light beams up onto the reels and you payout is multiplied by the chosen amount. This great feature can make a huge difference to your bankroll!

The gold symbol is the free spins icon in the game. If you spin at least 3 of these icons anywhere on the screen you trigger the free spins feature. Spinning 3 gold symbols gives 5 free spins, while 4 scatters triggers 10 free spins and 5 scatters awards 15 free spins. During the free spins round the multiplier awards are all doubled, so you can enjoy a 2x, 4x, 6x or 8x multiplier after every spin!

After any payout you can choose to gamble it on the turn of a stone! To gamble you have to guess the colour or suit of the next card on the stone face. If you guess the right colour you double your payout, while the right suit quadruples it. If you guess wrongly, though, you forfeit your winnings from that spin.

Aztecs is a fun game for fans of tribal themes and adventure slots. This game has lots of strong features, including the cascading reels, which gives plenty more ways to win on every spin and acts as re-spins whenever the symbols explode. The wild symbols help to boost the payouts and the random multiplier awards are always available for potentially huge free payouts. If you hit the 8x multiplier during free spins this can be a massive pay day for the biggest spinners. The graphics and animations are fun and the tribal man on the screen helps to add to the slot’s great character.
