Play Columbus for Free

Embark on one of the most important voyages in history-that of Columbus-when he set off from Europe to find new land and people across the seas. While his discoveries are much more important today than ever could have been comprehended at the time, Columbus was fairly well-known even then. On the reels, you will find Columbus, Queen Isabella, a Gold Necklace, a Sextant, and the three scatter Ship symbols; the Nina, the Pinta, and the Santa Maria. There are also symbols with card values from Ace through 9, which are essentially identical to the cards used to play table games online.

On this casino game, Columbus is the substituting wild icon (substituting all other symbols apart from the Ships), and he is also the highest paying symbol with 5 of his symbols unlocking the 20,000-coin standard jackpot. The 3 Ships are scatters, and they unlock Free Games.

You will be rewarded with up to 10 Free Spins when you get the 3 scatter Ships on reels 1, 3, and 5 in the same spin on an active payline. During the Free Games event, the Ships act as extra wilds and also as scatters, retriggering additional free spins when they land on reels 1, 3, and 5 again.

Bets per line can go up to 5.00 credits for a maximum bet worth 45.00, which makes this one of the most appealing dollar slots online. On the other end of the scale, bets per line are available at as low as 0.02 with a 0.18 minimum bet on all 9 lines. This makes for a great slot for micro-limit players who are on a tight budget.

While there's not really a huge difference between Columbus and its updated version Columbus Deluxe, the graphics are little less impressive in the original edition and there is one less payline. However, what will appeal to online slots players about Columbus is the versatile betting range that encompasses penny slot players, as well as medium-stake players. Payouts are quite frequent though, so this actually keeps you playing longer.
