Play Vulcan for Free

The beauty of having adjustable win lines is that a small amount can be bet on a small number of lines played. The limits on stakes go from the smallest bet of 0.01 for playing just the one line, up to 0.25 for playing all of them. Included in this game is the somewhat unique Feature Guarantee where playing the full 25 lines allows players to ensure they get to play the feature after a number of spins. The price for this is x10 the line bet and playing at low limit will add on 0.10 to the overall bet placed.

Step up to high limit stakes and this will increase the line bet to 0.25 so the overall bet will be 6.25 plus the x10 which gives the total of 8.75 coins per spin. The slot has a great ratchet sound to it when clicking spin, along with some other neat sounds and animations for the wild and scatter symbols.  The muscular Vulcan is the stacked wild and he hammers his anvil whenever he completes a win along a line as he beats out an added x3 multiplier.

According to legend, Vulcan had his forge deep within a volcano and it’s this volcano that is the symbol of the scatter which erupts if 3 or more appear to give a number of free spins. For this the screen changes from fire to cool using the love of Venus’s influence and a sea background. While these extra spins play, they will double any wins made. If that wasn’t already good enough, if more spins retrigger wins are awarded a bigger multiplier of up to x300 for the third and final retrigger.

If the feature guarantee is activated to trigger the free spins round, the value of the multipliers increases each retrigger within the feature up to a staggering x500 on the third. The pay table has some decent pays on it from the general symbol matches. Gamblers will be particularly interested with Venus being the high paying symbol. The return to player percentage varies from 91-97% as there are a number of factors with the features and length of play to take into consideration with this medium volatility slot.

Centurio by Merkur Gaming travels the history trail in another ancient roman themed slot. It's a similar 5 x 3 reeled slot but only has 5 paylines and these are fixed.

Software by Realtime Gaming provides exciting action in Vulcan. Their website has one very simple message of ‘taking gaming seriously’ and that shows in the games they produce no matter what the theme. The feature guarantee on this and a few other RTG games is one to look out for. It may seem a bit gimmicky but it can bring some great prizes if playing a session long enough to take advantage of it. It bursts onto the scene as a lightning strike and is an exciting addition.

It’s nice that Venus is brought into play to spread the love as the volcano explodes into life, and the background scene changes from the fiery pit to a calmer ocean one. The high drama chorus music adds to the tension of raking up the hot prizes. It's almost a like a balance of yin and yang as Venus calms the fiery Vulcan, and then shares the love in rewards to players. It's a classic slot that uses some great designs and iconography for the ancient theme.
