Columbus Novomatic

This is the original 5 reel, 9 Payline slot ‘Columbus’ by Novomatic Software. The only difference though between the original ‘Columbus’ slot and its sequel, the ‘Columbus Deluxe’ slot, is that the original has one less Payline and different limits.
The nautical historic theme based on Christopher Columbus,the Italian explorer who discovered America (?)

On the reels, there are symbols with low card values from Ace to 9. Also you will find Columbus/Queen Isabella/Gold Necklace/Sextant, and 3 Scatter Ship symbols. The Nina/Pinta/Santa Maria. When the 3 Ships are on reels 1/3/5 they sail for 10 Free spins feature… During the Free spins mode, the Ships act as extra wilds and also as scatters, retriggering additional free spins when they land on reels 1, 3, and 5 again.

In overall there isn’t a big difference between Columbus and its updated version Columbus Deluxe, the graphics are little less impressive in the original edition and there is one less payline. However, I'm not sure who discovered America. Columbus or Amerigo Vespucci... Hehe!

Columbus is a Novomatic slot with the theme of Columbus overseas travel and discovery. Therefore the symbols in accordance with this legend. Most cost-effective symbol is icon with the image that looks like Columbus and scatter symbols ships Nina, Pinta and Santa Maria, after Columbus' fleet. While all other symbols must be arranged next to each other on the payline slot game that would bring you profit, scatter symbols pay from any position, and have the power to replace any other symbol that you need at that moment.

In the first 10 spins on this slot game I won the first € 40, this was my first experience with this slot and came in late last year on the Stargames casino. The game has excellent opportunities gains what I will describe in the next sentence. For example, if you succeed in Columbus is rank 5 on a single line slot games, you win the jackpot, which is 500 times larger than what you put in the spin. If you without even playing the maximum bet € 2 per line and played on all 10 lines, it means you're leaving to travel to € 10,000 strong! Columbus also has the power to change any other, except the scatter symbol. The stakes and the number of pay-strains of the set in the lower menu that you see in the image at the top of this article. Gains in accordance with their current role at any time you can see by clicking on the button Paytable.

This slot game reputed to be one of the most rewarding slot machines on the market. This is supported and its advertised payout percentage of 97.3%, which is rarely seen. The combination of gains in accordance to stakes, select the number of paylines, free spins and a good story as the basis of all this is a good mixture of slot game that is fighting for its place in the competition slot that is taking place in recent years. Organizers are trying to satisfy the appetites and interests of each of us, and here they have succeeded. Another plus for the Novomatic company. Great time with all 40 free spins for 15 minutes! This is a pretty good result compared to other slot games, so I can say that the Columbus fun and profitable as it looks!

I want to say that I didn’t knew anything about this slot but when I went with a friend at a local casino to play slots, I saw that he was playing this slot! He won a decent amount of money in that day and I decided that next time I will play this slot too!

But when I created my account at Stargames casino to play Sizzling Hot and Book of Ra, I saw that they have this game and I was really impressed!

I decided to deposit 20 euro and to play this game for the first time even if I was thinking to play Book of Ra, maybe I will manage to catch the free spins! This is a 5-reel slot from Novoline, with 9 paylines and obviously a free spins feature that is triggered when 3 or more scatters appear anywhere on the reels! I played about 20 minutes and I managed to catch 3 boats that triggered the free spins feature, 10 free spins that can be retriggered, thing that happened not one time, two times! I couldn’t believe that, because I won 62 euro from the 30 free spins that I played and I have to say that I was attracted by the gambling feature but I knew that is too risky because it was a big amount!

The graphics aren’t so good, but I like because it has interesting symbols and a nice theme about discovering of America so I will give an 8 for this!

The payout rate was more than decent and I will give a 9 because it was for the first time when I played this slot and I managed to win some nice money!

Columbus is another slot game coming from the software company Novomatic. The games that this company offers I found at Stargames casino and they amazed me with their simplicity and the chance for some great wins.

This game has 5 reels and 10 paylines. Off course the theme of the game is the discovery of America by Columbus. You will notice that by the symbols in this games like a symbol of Columbus and scatter symbols of the ships with which Columbus went to sea when he discovered America and those are Nina, Pinta and Santa Maria. I can tell you that the theme is very interesting and original and for the 4 years that I have been playing in these casinos I haven't found a game with this theme. I'm a bit surprised to know that no other company has made a game with this theme. With all slot games you can expect big wins in the bonus round and that goes for Columbus slot as well.

This game offers free spins bonus round and when you get 3 scatter symbols you get 10 free spins. During these free spins you have a chance to get another 3 scatter symbols and win another 10 free spins. From my experience it has happened and you can get up to 30 or 40 free spins. Off course like all other games coming from Novomatic you can double your win that is to risk a double or nothing in the gamble option.

Overall a simple but yet interesting game that I play often and beside the offer of many games with fantastic graphic and great animations. I also very much like the theme of this game but again I can't say that I had some big wins here like 100 x bet or more. For Columbus slot game I give 6 out of 10.
