Hoard Of Poseidon Review

Greek mythology is one of the most popular themes within the slot industry and has already become a bit cliched and jaded over the years, though, Red Tiger doesn't seem to be bothering about it according to their release of Hoard of Poseidon. The game focuses around Poseidon, the ancient Greek god, who was one of the Twelve Olympians and ruled the sea.

Even though we have already seen this particular theme being used in dozens of slot games, Hoard of Poseidon yet feels pleasing to the eye and attracts with its charming visuals. As for the visuals, they are superb. Red Tiger did a great job of designing their brainchild as everything looks outstanding and is depicted in detail. The overall appearance is astonishing and appears to have impeccable aesthetics when it comes to graphics, which are top-notch quality. The reels are decorated with Greek ornamentations while behind it an underwater chamber filled with gold and treasures makes up the backdrop. The soundtrack is another of the highlights, as it captures the vibe and fits the gameplay. The sound effects are cool too, especially when you score big wins and the guitars turn up.

The symbol collection corresponds to the theme and includes 9 regulars divided by 5 low-pays and 4 premiums. As for the less valuable ones, they are represented by a bunch of A-10 royals. They're given a touch of styling, though, to add them a dash of personality. The high-pays are way better and include shells with gems, ships in bottles, books, and rings encrusted with shiny rubies. The last one is the most rewarding among the regulars, though.

• Wilds - 15x of the bet.
• Ring - 15x of the bet.
• Book - 4x of the bet.
• Ship in a bottle - 3x of the bet.
• Shell - 2.4x of the bet.
• A royal - 1.8x of the bet.
• K royal - 1.6x of the bet.
• Q royal - 1.4x of the bet.
• J royal - 1.2x of the bet.
• 10 royal - 1x of the bet.

The symbol payouts are quite meager, to be honest, though, the game's potential lies beneath its features and you won't even bother about low symbol prizes.

Playable from 0.1$ to 20$ per spin, Hoard of Poseidon is played across a 5-reel 4-row layout with 30 ways to play. True to Red Tiger's style, the game comes with a slightly than average RTP, which is 95.72%. The maximum winning potential is actually decent with 3,423.6x of the bet. Yet, taking into consideration the betting range cap at 20$ per spin, all you can hope for is 68,472$ on a single spin. However, if you do not feel yourself like a high-roller and prefer wagering low sums, you won't be left disappointed with over 3k times the bet.

When it comes to the features, Red Tiger managed to saturate their game with dozens of features. Moreover, the gameplay is kinda unique and Hoard of Poseidon doesn't boast basic and all-familiar features.

The Wild symbols include Chest Wilds, Kraken Wilds, Ink Wilds, and Poseidon Wilds. All of them act as regular Wilds and worth 15x of the bet and are keys to triggering the features on top of everything. The first 3 are regular-sized symbols, while Poseidon Wild is a super Wild symbol with 1x2 size. Moreover, Poseidon and Kraken symbols may land only once on a single spin, and only onto the 5th and 4th reels respectively, while Chest Wilds can land more than once and only onto the first 3 reels. The Wilds work in pairs and trigger the following features:

• Locked Wilds. Whenever Chest and Kraken Wilds land on the same spin, Kraken's tentacles lock the chests in their positions for the duration of the next spin.
• Ink Wilds. When Kraken and Poseidon both land onto the reels during the same spin, Poseidon expels Kraken from the reels, who in turn leaves a trail of Ink Wilds on its path.
• Cloned Chests. When Chest and Poseidon Wilds land on the same spin, Poseidon casts magic to clone the chests.

When all the Wilds land onto the grid during the same spin, Poseidon's Plunger feature is triggered.

The last but not least feature, which does not involve Wilds is called Stacking Multiplier. It can be activated on any spin to apply a random multiplier of up to 35x to the next win.

We have to pay tribute to Red Tiger for developing a pretty unique game. Even though the theme is a nothing of a novelty, the game still managed to surprise with the involved features that enliven the gameplay and keep you in the right mood during the session. 

However, the game comes with a couple of downsides. When it comes to the technical aspects, Red Tiger has never been helping, and thus we get this lower than average RTP. Nevertheless, most of their games appear to feature a pretty brutal math model, so there's no need to blame the devs as you always know what to expect from these guys. The same concerns the betting range, which cannot be considered wide enough and therefore appealing to a particular interlayer of players, namely high-rollers. Due to the cap at 20 bucks per spin, the winning potential loses its value, so Hoad of Poseidon is definitely not your choice of what to play in case you seek for a slot to hit a decent jackpot.

In a nutshell, Hoard of Poseidon is a fun attraction, though, the above-mentioned issues may spoil the overall impression, However, if you're into Greek-style slots and still in search of quality one to play, this title will definitely be worth a spin or two.
