Play Amazons for Free

Although this title can be played by both sexes, there’s no escaping that fact that the female component of this game has a lot of sex appeal: her thighs are shapely and toned, her bodice is extremely high cut, and her body is curvaceous yet firm. Our Amazon employs both ideals of Ancient Greece and those of our modern day society, thus making it more enjoyable for all.

What is more, her animated expressions and movements add an interactive element to the game, which in turn makes it more interesting to play. Traditional grids and their reels can become dull after a time, even with high variance, but with a figure reacting to our losses and wins, it gives the title a longer shelf life. We savour the view as she soars into the air and roars with joy; it adds depth.

Carrying on with the idea of depth, just look at the fine display MGA have put on for us: the scenery of this real money slot machine is superb. Crisp and photorealistic in places, it makes for a great background for the game, causing the 5 reels and 10 fixed winlines to feel greater than what they are.

If you stripped away all the fancy aesthetics, you’d be left with a very boring slot machine, but because of them it shapes Amazons in such a way that you want to play merely because of its appearance.

In many of the brand’s newer games, there’s been a progressive jackpot included; normally shown above the reels, it keeps you grounded as you work towards its lavish payouts. At least that’s what they’re meant to do, but with Amazons the money you can will is incredibly lacklustre.

If you play with the lowest bet amount, your final jackpot could be nothing more than 13.24 credits! That’s a very low figure to be working towards, especially when most of the paytable is worth more than that sum alone.

Even if you up your bet to the maximum amount in a bid to get a better result, you’ll find the jackpot worth still doesn’t exceed 132.43, or at least it didn’t when we played. Every time we reloaded the title, we were given the same sums of money, but as we were playing the free slot version, we can’t be sure how the jackpots fare when playing for real.

As great as Amazons looks, it has the common flaw that a lot of MGA slots have: it has no variance. As a result, you end up getting more and more tense without an outlet for all your energy – the only excitement you can hope to have comes from the gamble option.

Having played Vampire Treasure, Castle and Africa, it would have been nice if the company had even bothered to try a different setup, rather than repainting the walls but leaving the architecture the same. It's fair to say that if you’ve played any of the games listed, you don’t really need to play this one, as you’ve basically played it before, just under a different name.
