The Any Adjacent Pays™ pay system is a combination of Ways to Win and Pays Both Ways system, spread out over four tall rows that play superbly on mobile but just as neatly on desktop.

How to Play

Playing Ancient Warriors is simple. The Any Adjacent Pays™ pay system means that any three symbols anywhere across the reels pays either left-to-right and right-to-left. So no matter where you match three or more symbols they pay out relating to each symbol’s payout value. It is a different approach to pay systems than, say, Megaways slots like 1 Million Megaways BC. Which offer up to 117,649 paylines but still pay left-to-right.

Click on the chip icon to the right of the reels to select your bet level in Ancient Warriors and press the round spin button to set the reels in motion. The spin button is neatly designed to echo the Feature symbols and highlights when you hover over it. To activate the Ancient Warriors of the games title (silhouetted and dormant behind each reel) you must land ornate golden Feature symbols stacked in front of the Ancient Warrior on rows 2, 3 and 4.

Symbols

The symbols in Ancient Warriors are excellently drawn and animated to stand out when they form winning combinations. The market for Oriental themed online slots is crowded, so these animations help Ancient Warriors to stand out. The higher-paying symbols are richly designed Dragon, Monkey, Tiger and Snake, all designed in super bright colours. Their eyes flash and faces pop when you form winning combinations. They all pay out the same value of x0.75 for four on a payline, which doesn’t seem like great value for high-paying symbols but add up because they all appear stacked. This does account for the low maximum jackpot, though, without Multiplier WIlds added.

The lower paying symbols are Jacks, Queens, Kings and Aces, which pay x0.35 for four-of-a-kind. The ornate golden feature symbols transform into Wild YIn Yang symbols to substitute for all symbols. Except Scatters and complete winning combinations. The vibrant blue Scatter symbols land with a thud and launch the game’s dedicated bonus feature.

Bonuses

With a dedicated Free Spins feature as well as an in-game bonus Ancient Warriors does plenty to service our slot bonus needs.

Bonus Name Bonus Explanation
Wild Transformation feature

Landing one or two golden Feature symbols on rows 3, 4 or 5 activates the Wild Transformation feature. Each of the Feature symbols transform into Wild Yin Yang symbols to complete Any Adjacent Pays™ wins.

Stacked Multipliers feature

When three Feature symbols land over one of the Ancient Warriors standing behind each reel on rows 3, 4 and 5 the triggers the Stacked Multipliers feature launches. The Ancient Warrior behind the reels animates to become a stacked Multiplier Wild, which multiplies the wins between x2-x10.

Ancient Warriors Bonus Spins

Three or more Scatters landing anywhere on the four reels triggers the Ancient Warriors Bonus Spins. 5 free spins are awarded, but each Scatter symbol that lands during the feature awards an additional bonus spin, up to 10 spins.

Each Feature symbol that lands on rows 3, 4 and 5 are locked for the duration of the bonus spins. For reels with 1 or 2 locked Feature symbols, Wild symbols are locked. For reels with three Feature symbols, Multiplier Wilds are locked for the duration of the spins.
