A brand new Spartan themed video slot is set to launch this month. There have been several over the last few years, but it is this new one which will try to break new ground. The new slot is called Leonidas – King of the Spartans, and has been released by one of the smaller online casino software providers in Incredible Technologies.

New Slot

Leonidas – King of the Spartans is played over 5 reels and 40 paylines. The slot will actually cost you at least 0.80 per spin, though, as you will also be paying for some of the thrilling special features which appear in the game. You might think that this is a bit harsh, but wait until you see them.

Features

First up, when Leonidas himself appears on the first and second reels at the same time, they will lock their shields, whilst the third, fourth, and fifth reels will re-spin. Should more Leonidas icons join the fray, then players can pocket a Group Leonidas win. A random Leonidas Win feature can also see a six of a kind combination featuring Leonidas symbols.

Free Spins

Of course, like all video slots, it is the free spins bonus round which impresses the most. This free spins feature is activated by landing 3 of more of the scatter icons in any positions on the reels. This will see you able to trigger a minimum of 5 free spins. During the bonus round, you can win more free spins, whilst you can also pocket stacked wilds on the first reel, 2x Spartan wilds on the second reel, and 5x multipliers on any cash prizes you bag. Frozen wilds are also possible, if Leonidas blocks arrows with his shield.All in all, this is a very decent release from a smaller scale developer, and it should make waves in the online casino world when it is launched this week.
