Age of Troy is a colourful 20-payline video slot which runs on the Euro Games Technology software platform. The game abounds in images evoking this ancient city, the most important of which are a wooden horse, acting as the wild card, and a temple, which is the scatter. Players are welcome to try this slot here on this page for free or visit any of the Euro Games Technology casinos in our listings to play the game for real money.
Before embarking on their legendary adventure, players should choose their preferred bet. The minimum and the maximum coin size is 1. There are 5 bets located underneath the slot reels and selecting any of them will result in the immediate spinning of the reels. The green “Start” button initiates the game and repeats the chosen bet, while clicking “Autoplay” causes the reels to spin for a preset number of times in succession.
Clicking the “Gamble” button activates the Gamble feature which allows players to increase their winnings. If their guess whether the face down card is red or black is correct, their winnings are increased. If their guess is wrong, the acquired sum is lost and the game ends. The players can leave the Gamble round at any time and collect their winnings by pressing the “Collect” button.
Free Spins are triggered when 3 scatter symbols appear on the reels. The player is then rewarded with 12 free spins with stacked wild symbols. In case of the retriggering of the Free Spins, the player is granted another 12 free spins, which are added to the current number of spins.
Jackpot Cards Mystery is a randomly triggered bonus, activated while any Jackpot Cards stamped game is played. Each mystery jackpot is illustrated by a card suit in the following order: clubs, diamonds, hearts and spades. Players select cards from the pick field consisting of 12 cards face down until 3 matching card suit symbols are revealed. The Jackpot Cards Mystery level corresponding to the revealed suit will be awarded.

In addition to the natural attraction I feel for epic stories and major events featuring ancient civilizations, since I know the games developed by "Euro Games Technology - EGT" I could not resist the temptation to delve and know their new works, and this time I have resulted making a few too many spins on this slot of nice design called "Age of Troy", which as its name suggests, it is based on the story contained in Homer's Iliad which tells the story of Troy, Helena, Paris, Achilles and the famous wooden horse with soldiers inside.
"Age of Troy" is a slot with a layout of 5 x 3 reels, 20 lines, and 5 levels of betting where you can choose to bet 20, 40, 100, 200 or 400 credits per spin, and unlike other slots developed by this same company, this slot seems to have a paytable a little tight and a hit average not very good from my view point, except maybe by payouts resulted of hits involving 3 or more stacked reels with the symbol of Paris, the lover of Helena, whose payouts can become really interesting, though perhaps not so common. Among the special symbols we have the wild symbol that is represented with the image of the Trojan horse and it only works as substitute for all symbols except the scatter, which incidentally is represented with the image of The Parthenon and it only appears on reels 1, 3 and 5, which makes triggering this feature, which in this case is a round of 12 free spins, is a some painful task, and to be frank I do not know if hit average is better or not during this round. Being this latter the only special feature of this slot and performance during the base game statistically unsatisfactory for me, I think this slot has failed in conquer my tastes and even I feel a little disappointed because my expectations are usually pretty high every time I try a new game belonging to the company EGT.
Doing a little research of this slot online, I realize that my opinion is pretty close to that of many other players who also express some dissatisfaction with it, still you should not deny yourself the opportunity to try it, there are always more players with ability to find the Achilles heel of those games that have seemed unbeatable ourselves.
