Read on for more details of what the hero gets up to!
Arise O Hercules High And Mighty!
The Hercules High and Mighty slot are endowed with 5 reels, 5 rows and a maximum of 100 paylines. Besides the reels are rather sizable pillars of the sort you might find in temples of ancient Greece or Rome.
The reels are well designed and for some reason are suspended by chains that are fixed to the very top. These chains are actually not cosmetic. They, in fact, raise and lower, thereby either boosting or decreasing the number of paylines in play as required.
The featured icons would be instantly familiar to any scholar of the ancient world and comprise the winged horse Pegasus, a lion, a Hydra, Medusa the snake-haired monster and Hercules’ parents- Zeus and Alcmene. The mighty Hercules is the wild icon and takes the place of every other icon save for the scatter.
Bonus Features
Big Bet– this feature is a Barcrest staple whereby bettors optionally pay extra so as to trigger some select features as follows:
- ₤20 changes Hercules into an expanding wild whenever he shows up on the reels.
- ₤30 combines the above feature with the removal of the low-value icons.
- ₤50 combines all the above bonuses with the addition of the wild staying stuck in place until a win is guaranteed.
Upon expansion of the wild icon, the chain holding up the reels rises, thereby making possible extra paylines. This can as well happen during base gameplay whenever bettors can fully see the Hercules icon.
Free Spins– landing 3 and up of the scatter icon activates this bonus round in the Hercules High And Mighty slot. 3, 4 or 5 scatters equates to the award of 8, 12 or 20 free spins respectively and more free spins can be captured when players re-land the scatter icon from within this bonus round.
