Wrath of Medusa Symbols
Rival Gaming has opted for 3D animated graphics for this release. While this makes Wrath of Medusa look clean and crisp compared to some of its older slots, these graphics won’t age well. However, not all slot players are concerned about that. Various jewels (low-paying symbols) and Greek imagery (high-paying symbols like helmets, vases, short swords, shields, and bows) aside, there are some special symbols worth noting, too.
Wild symbols appear as the infamous Gorgon: Medusa herself. She can expand to cover an entire reel when she appears. However, unsurprisingly, Medusa wilds only pop up on the second, third and fourth reels. This makes them not as useful as you might imagine.
Scatter symbols appear as a Greek warrior, Perseus, presumably. Landing three, four or five such emblems will activate a bonus round. What follows is straightforward – you can choose one of the stone soldiers on the screen to win a series of free spins. How many spins you land is really down to lady luck. You’ll be awarded a random amount (whichever stone soldier you pick).
In that bonus round, there is an alternative wild that comes into play. Whenever Medusa lands here, she will become sticky and offer you a re-spin. It is this feature alone that is really the saving grace for this Rival Gaming developed slot.
