Minotaurus is a video slot with 5 reels and 10 pay-lines powered by Endorphina. This slot is inspired with a mythical creature which was part man part bull, and dwelt in the labyrinth.

Give it a spin here for free or visit any of the Endorphina Casinos to play for real money.
Before you go deep underground, you should set your bets. When you click on a "Coin" located above the reels you will set coins size which ranges from 0.01 to 1. When you click on "Bet" you will set the number of coins per line, and "Lines" button is used to set the number of lines. "Auto" is used to start the reels turning without interruption, and "Spin" will set the reels in motion once you set your bets.
This slot has a Wild symbol which covers the whole reel. The Wild symbol is the Minotaur and it can substitute for any other symbol on the reels. When Minotaur lands on the reel it will activate Re-spins feature. It can only land on reel 2, 3 and 4.
During Re-spins the win line pay-out is multiplied according to the awarded multiplier value. Re-spins last until you hit a win. The multiplier value is getting higher with each spin that does not land a win. This feature cannot be reactivated during these re-spins.
When you land a win, two button will appear in the same place where "Auto" and "Spin" are. One button is "Take Win" and it is used to collect the winnings, whereas the other is "Take Risk" which will take you to another screen so you can try your chances in the Gamble feature.
In this feature, another screen will be shown with the gamble button you can click on, should you decide to take the risk in order to double your winnings. If you click on the button you will go through the underground halls, and as long as you don’t run into a Minotaur you can continue gambling. If, however, you run into a Minotaur you will lose and will be taken back to the base game.

This superb video slot by Endorphina consists of your standard 5-reels, 3-rows, and 10 fixed paylines. This Ancient Greek themed slot features one of the more terrifying mystical mythological creatures known as the Minotaur, which is a half-bull, half-man creature. The Sounds and animations are well done and add to the overall dark atmosphere of the game, which is that of horror and despair in the gloomy underground Labyrinth, where eventually most people get lost and are then eaten.
However, the game is not all gloom and doom especially when it comes to the free spin feature in this game which consist of two special features, and that is the Minotaur Wild and the Risk Game.
The Minotaur Wild consists of a three-row high symbol that appears only on reels 2,3, or 4. This symbol substitutes for all other symbols, and If you land this Wild, the Minotaur will stomp on the reels to activate the re-spins until you have won the round. What's more, whenever you get a re-spin the multiplier for your next win will increase by one each time.
The Risk Game is basically the Gamble option. After you have won a round, all you have to do is to click “Gamble”, If you see Ariadne, then you will receive twice the amount of your reward for the round. If it’s the Minotaur that you see instead, then you won't be walking away with any reward at all. You can opt to keep playing the mini game or take the cash, so long as you don’t run into the Minotaur.
Minotaurus has a great design and will keep you fixed to your screen. This title gives you straightforward gameplay, that is easy to play whether you are a newbie or a veteran. Having only two special features is a bit of a let down, but there is still much fun to be had playing the game, as well as the fact that there is still great winning potential.
I Once had an unexpected win of x250 and was happy, luckily played on a high stake. You would want the Minotaur to always land on reel 4 for big wins.
