Today’s new slot games include a Norse epic, a medieval tournament & a battle with the gladiators in the Roman Coliseum

If you like historically-themed slot games, we’ve got 3 cracking new releases for you in Queen’s Day Tilt, Lightning Strike Megaways and Champions of Rome.

Queen’s Day Tilt – Play ‘N Go

Created by Play ’N Go, Queen’s Day Tilt is played using an unusual 3×3 symbol drop game engine. Winners are created by landing 2 or 3 matching symbols vertically or horizontally. It’s not just the game engine that’s a little out of the ordinary here – the feature are too.

There’s a good range of them too, starting with The Ruler feature which can trigger on any losing spin to add a wild and turn it into a winner. Land a winner featuring both the high value knight symbols to trigger the Game of Accession feature. You’ll then receive a free spin with the lower value symbols removed. You could also get another free spin or a 2x multiplier boost here.

If symbol drops result in all the symbols being removed from the reels, you’ll trigger the Queen’s Day Free Spins feature – this awards 5 free spins with all the lower value symbols removed. Expanding multipliers are in play here too, starting at 2x. You can also win another 5 free spins.

As well designed as you’d expect from Play ’N Go, Queen’s Day Tilt is also a super volatile slot game with wins of up to 5,000 times your stake on each free spin. If you like high variance action, it’s a must play.

Lightning Strike MegaWays – Blueprint Gaming

Norse myth and legend is the theme on offer in our second new arrival, Lightning Strike MegaWays. This Blueprint Gaming slot game uses Big Time Gaming’s MegaWays game engine where the number of symbols on each of the 6 reels changes with each spin, as does the potential number of ways to win. Fully extended, the reels offer 15,625 ways to win.

Other goodies on offer here are the special Tree of Life symbols which all transform into the same matching symbol whenever they hit – this is called the Mystery Might feature. Lightning Strike Wilds expand to fill whole reels. They also come with multipliers which can boost payouts by up to 5x as well as awarding a respin whenever they hit.

Each win of 5 times your stake or more triggers the Mega Spins Exchange feature – you get a spin of the bonus wheel where you can win up to 25 mega spins in the Mega Spins feature. With richer reels, you can get mystery Yggdrasil symbols, wild multipliers and expanding wilds.

It’s not the most visually arresting slot game you’ll see but the range of extras on offer more than make up for any design shortcomings. If you like MegaWays slot games, then Lightning Strike MegaWays is well worth a look as it can pay out 10,000 times your stake on every free spin.

Champions of Rome – Yggdrasil Gaming

Rounding out the hat-trick of historically-themed slot games is Champions of Rome which transports players back to the Roman Coliseum. This superbly designed 5 reel, 20 payline title comes from Yggdrasil Gaming. In fact, you won’t see many better looking and sounding games than this.

There’s a good range of features on offer here too starting with the Gladiator feature. Triggered by landing 2 free spin symbols. it adds a weapon to the reels. The Swords offer 1×2 and 2×1 wilds, the Mace adds a block of 2×2 wilds with the Trident delivering 4 single wilds. A new payout then follows with the extra wilds in place.

There are also 2 free spin rounds. Opt for the training free spins and everything you win from those 8 free spins will be yours to keep.

Choose the Deathmatch Mode and you’ll have the pick of 5, 6 or 7 free spins. You need to land a minimum of 22.5 times your stake here in order to keep your bounty. Manage that and the payout receives a 2x, 3x or 4x multiplier boost.

Gladiators are central to the action in both free spin modes, adding the Sword, Mace and Trident wild extras whenever they hit. Extra free spins are on offer if a weapon strikes a beast. With so many similarly themed slot games, it takes something special to stand out but with its stunning design and cracking extras, Champions of Rome certainly does so. It can also reward you with wins of 4,800 times your stake on each free spin.
