The game is based on the sun god Helios and based on 5 reels and 30 pay lines. It comes with an array of in-game features, high-value symbols and good payouts.

With the reels peppered with olives and harps, the Greek god himself acts as the highest paying symbol, whilst paying out for winning combinations from both left and right. He also has the power to upgrade the higher paying symbols in the free spins bonus round and award players with extra spins.

This medium volatile slot game has a maximum win of 8,333x your stake, which is not bad at all.

When it comes to graphics or a theme, as such, it has been kept quite basic. The reels are set against the sky, with Helios guarding the reels. The soundtrack features drums without being over the top.

The jackpots make up for the biggest majority of rewarding prizes. Considering this is a game with a payout percentage of 96.05%, it is surprising to see a jackpot game with a standard RTP.

Divine Riches Helios jackpots

Better known as the Blazing Bonus, this feature can be randomly triggered whenever a Bonus Token lands anywhere on the reels. When this happens, a 4 x 3 game board with 12 random tokens appear. Your main aim here is to pick a token, which will in turn reveal one of four different jackpots.

Here are the various prizes for the Divine Riches Helios jackpots:

• Big Jackpot: 15x your stake
• Major Jackpot: 40x your stake
• Mega Jackpot: 200x your stake
• Divine Jackpot: 5,000x your stake

Players will get to keep on picking between the various bonus tokens until the same jackpot has been revealed three times.

Divine Riches Helios free spins

Three or more free spins bonus symbols will automatically activate the free spins bonus round. Collect three symbols to earn yourself 8 free spins, while five symbols earn you 16 free spins.

During this bonus round, you can collect Helios symbols which are stacked away to the left-hand side of the reels. Earning enough Helios symbols will trigger the Hand of Helios round.

Divine Riches Helios bonus features

No one can deny that this game is jampacked with bonus and in-game features. These include:

Wilds

Symbolised by a massive WILD etched in golden letters, these symbols will help substitute with all other symbols except for the Free Spins symbol in a bid to create winning combinations.

Bonus Token

The Bonus Token is a compass-like symbol that, when it lands on the reels, could trigger the Blazing Bonus feature.

Hand of Helios

The Hand of Helios feature can only be triggered during the free spins bonus round. Land 12 Helios symbols during this round to upgrade the highest value symbols. In turn, all the olive symbols will be turned into the clay pot upon the first upgrade.

Upon the second upgrade, the olives and pots will transform into the harp and upon the third upgrade, all will be transformed into the horse. If you succeed in upgrading for the fourth time, all higher-paying symbols will transform into Helios.

Players are awarded 2 extra free spins each time a symbol is upgraded.

Divine Riches Helios RTP

The Divine Riches Helios RTP stands at an average of 96.05%. This is a medium volatile online slot game, so players can expect wins on a semi-frequent basis.

Verdict

Divine Riches Helios explores the often explored Greek theme, except it does it with a twist. While the graphics are nice, there is not much to distract you from the game. The game itself comes packed with in-game features which should keep players on their toes.

We were also pleased to see that a game with jackpot prizes comes with an average RTP. When it comes to jackpot games, usually the payout percentage is below the average, and since this is a medium volatile game, it makes it the ideal option for both low and high rollers.

The game comes with a free spins bonus round, which is nothing unusual. Free spins bonus rounds are widely available across most online slot games. However, this bonus round comes with an upgrade.

Players can collect Helios symbols and upgrade their symbols to help them achieve far more generous winning combinations. It also awards players with extra free spins, which is fantastic all around.

The most significant wins come without a doubt from the Blazing Bonus feature. The Divine Jackpot alone pays a massive 5,000x your stake.

While this figure is quite attractive, many other jackpots forming part of Microgaming’s games portfolio also come with fixed jackpots. Similarly, Game of Thrones: Power Stakes comes with 5,000x your stake jackpots.

If you are looking for a game that is packed with features and modest jackpot prizes, look no further than Divine Riches Helios.
