Parthenon: Quest for Immortality™

The latest online slot release by prolific software game developer NetEnt reminds us of the golden days when NetEnt burst out of nowhere belting one slot hit after another.

This latest offering is a Grecian-themed game that focuses on the now lost culture of the golden age. As a player, this game offers you 10,000 ways to win spread over six reels. Even better, it comes with an avalanche feature, which awards you with respins every time you hit a winning combination.

This powerful sequel to the classic game Pyramid: Quest for Immortality, follows in the same footsteps with a wild generation zone feature as well as free spins with an increasing multiplier.

Though the RTP of 96.03% is the usual average standard, this is a highly volatile game, with the majority of the wins generated from the free spins round.

With a maximum win of 1,250x your total wager, you might just come out as an immortal player when hitting it. Though a word of caution, you might also have to challenge snake-haired Medusa, in a bid to make it all the way to the top and join the Olympians.

The lowest-valued symbols are the usual card number, while the most valuable ones include the Medusa, coins, Pegasus, snakes and ships.

If you are up for the challenge, keep on reading to discover the many more features available in this slot game.

Parthenon: Quest for Immortality free spins

The Parthenon: Quest for Immortality free spins bonus round can be easily triggered by landing three or more scatter symbols. This, in turn, will also activate the avalanche sequence.

Landing three scatters will earn you 8 free spins, while each additional scatter will add another 4 free spins to the tally.

You can still collect additional free spins during the bonus round. If you collect three collection symbols, you will be awarded another 2 free spins.

However, the main selling point of this bonus round is the free spins multiplier feature. The bonus round kicks off with an x1 multiplier, which will increase by 1 when any symbols transform into a wild.

Free spins multipliers can keep on increasing up to a maximum of x20.

Parthenon: Quest for Immortality bonus features

This slot game comes with no less than four bonus features that are designed to help you generate wins, including:

Avalanche feature

Like some of NetEnt’s most popular slot games, including the likes of Gonzo’s Quest, Parthenon: Quest for Immortality comes with an Avalanche feature. Whenever you hit a winning combination, all winning symbols will disappear and new ones will drop down from the top, essentially triggering a respin.

If you hit another winning combination, the same procedure will take place again. This keeps on going until there are no winning combinations.

Wild Generation Zone feature

Parthenon: Quest for Immortality does not boast a regular reel setup. Since it is built across six reels, it is better referred to as a grid. Any symbols that form part of a winning combination on the grid will trigger the Wild Generation Zone.

Winning symbols will instantly transform into wilds and stay put as the next Avalanche is activated. More wilds can be added to the grid thus improving your chances of triggering more winning combinations, wilds and avalanches.

Free Spins feature

The free spins feature as explained above is triggered by landing at least three scatter symbols anywhere on the reels. You will be immediately awarded 8 free spins, but you can trigger if you land more in addition to the three scatters.

Land a total of 6 free spins symbols and you will kick off your free spins bonus round with a whopping 20 free spins. You can additionally trigger more free spins during the bonus round.

Free Spins Multiplier

The last and final feature is the free spins multiplier which can only be activated during this round. Any symbol that transforms into a wild during the free spins bonus round will be boosted with an x1 multiplier. Again, multipliers can reach as high as x20.

Parthenon: Quest for Immortality RTP

Parthenon: Quest for Immortality is a highly volatile game, so you can’t expect to hit frequent wins during this game. However, when you do, they are quite substantial.

The game comes with an average RTP rate of 96.03%.

Verdict

Players who love a little bit of history and unusual reel setups will undoubtedly be drawn to Parthenon: Quest for Immortality’s classic and stylish gaming style.

NetEnt has once again proved to be on top of its game and players who love a stylish game with all the usual mod cons will be drawn to its appeal.

We thought the game was excellent but triggering wins and most importantly, the free spins bonus round proved difficult and left a dent in our bankroll. The avalanche feature though was a much-needed and welcome touch to a highly volatile game that helped us recoup some of our losses.

We still would have loved to see a few more additional bonus features to help balance out the game. Though the avalanches do somehow trigger additional wins at times, it felt like we were on slippery ground throughout the game.

It is a highly volatile game and it is obviously a gambling game so we were aware that wins would be infrequent.

Still, we always love a good old Grecian-themed game, and most importantly, one by NetEnt.
