The screen goes dark and all of a sudden, you’re transported into a mystical, mysterious and somewhat strange underworld. That’s right – you’ve just landed in the Temple of Medusa slot and now it’s up to you to play your way out.

Temple of Medusa has been developed by Estonia-based All41 in collaboration with Microgaming which is behind player favourite titles including The Phantom of the Opera.

When you first play Temple of Medusa, don’t be surprised if the snakes scare you off, but if that’s the case, you should come back. This game has 25 ways to win and the opportunity to win 1,100x your stake.

How to Play Temple of Medusa

Temple of Medusa slot consists of three rows, each of which has five reels. These all feature in the middle of the screen. To play, all you need to do is place your bet and click on the big green button to the right-hand side of the rows and reels.

To win, you’ll need to match a minimum of three symbols in a row from the left-hand side.

If you land on three symbols, you’ll receive a payout 2.5x your original stake. This rises to 10x for four symbols and 25x if you get a five-symbol combination.

To play Temple of Medusa, you’ll need to stake a minimum of $0.10 with the maximum you can place on each spin being $40.

Regardless of how much or little you bet, you’ll spin all rows and reels. You should also keep in mind that the volatility for this game is high, while the bonus hit rate is just over 31%.

Symbols in Temple of Medusa

As you might expect, Temple of Medusa uses symbols that originate from Greek mythology. If you land on the playing cards ranging from 10 to Ace, you’ll get the lowest standard payout.

The swords, boots and helmets pay higher, while the largest-paying regular symbols are Stheno and Euryale – Medusa’s sisters.

The Medusa spreading wild is the game’s scatter symbol, while you should also keep an eye out for the other wild symbol as this can deliver plenty of big-win potential.

Bonuses in Temple of Medusa

Like a lot of Microgaming titles, you’ll have access to various free spins when playing Temple of Medusa. If your wild symbol spreads in all directions, you’ll get five free spins.

This number increases to 10 if it spreads in two directions, and 15 if it only spreads in one. You might also land on a mystery choice, which could be any of these.

Another bonus to unlock is the lucky prize which is worth 1,000x what you staked. It’s worth noting, though, that this prize triggers at random.

Temple of Medusa also gives you the potential to activate spreading wilds. This happens when you land on Medusa and other positions become wild.

Getting this to spread in every direction will give you nine different wilds.
