As you’d expect from a slot game called Relic Seekers, the action here takes place in an ancient tomb. On the reels you’ll see lower value letter-style characters as well a dog, the 3 Relic Seekers and a standard wild. The Free Man character is the highest value symbol with 5 on a payline giving you 90 times your stake. The lantern wild symbol replaces all symbols except the scatter.
Relic Seekers uses the Rolling Reels feature. After a winning combination hits, the successful symbols are removed and new ones drop in and replace them. These keep on coming as long as a new winner hits. Get on a good run and it can bring extra wilds into play with Symbol Turns Wilds feature. After 2, 4 and 6 successive Rolling Reel wins, the higher value Nora, Professor and Man symbols become wild (respectively).
Land 3 or more scatters on the same spin and you’ll win a payout of double your total stake as well as triggering the Free Spins feature. On offer here are 10 free spins using the Rolling Reels. Look out for the key symbol that can appear on reel 5 during the feature.
Each time 1 lands, it is collected. After you’ve amassed 3 keys, an extra 2 free spins are added to your total. Collect 6 and you’ll get 2 more free spins as well as activating a 2x multiplier which will be in play for any free spins you have left. Re-triggers are possible too. Landing 3 or more scatters adds another 10 free spins to your total.
There’s plenty going in this treasure hunting adventure thanks to the Rolling Reels. They can deliver some pretty good action courtesy of the transforming wilds. That’s certainly the case in the Free Spins feature where the multipliers can give your winnings a quick leg up.
Be warned though. This is a supremely volatile slot game especially for a Microgaming-powered game – you can win 4,500 times your stake with the doubling multiplier. This theme is an extremely popular one. With its decent design, quality range of features and sky-high variance, Relic Seekers is a welcome addition of Microgaming’s portfolio.
I would also recommend you try Jackpot Raiders from Yggdrasil Gaming and Lara Croft: Temples and Tombs from Microgaming if you have a thirst for adventure.
