Rome: The Golden Age Slot Game
Rome: The Golden Age online slot is placed on a stunning balcony that overlooks the battlefield. NetEnt did an excellent job of communicating Roman architecture, taking us to a quite unusual 3-4-5-4-3 grid with 20 ways to play, surrounded by gorgeous marble columns and statues. Such locations functioned as 'VIP' seats for aristocrats who, with a flip of their hands, determined the fate of gladiators.
NetEnt designed numerous features in Rome: The Golden Age that perform well on their own but are enhanced when used in conjunction. This has a Frame Collection feature, multipliers, and free spins.
When Golden Age symbols appear, a frame identifies their location. At random, one of the Golden Age symbols may transform into a Rome symbol, activating the frame. On the next spin, the position with the Rome sign turns wild, as do all nearby locations with frames. These new wilds can convert nearby spots wild up to five times. When the wilds have been used to win, the frames are eliminated.
Golden Age symbols also provide another advantage. Whenever one lands, 1-4 points are added to the progress metre above the reels. When 200 points are accumulated, the Free Spins Multiplier gradually grows in the following order: x1, x2, x3, x5, x7, x10, x12, x15, x20, x30, x40, x50, x75, x100, x200, x300, x500, x750, x1000. This multiplier has no effect on the base game and is added at the end of free spins.
Free spins are triggered when three scatter symbols appear on reels 2, 3, and 4. When transitioning to free spins, any places with frames or active frames that did not become wild during the triggering spin remain on the reels and receive a random value ranging from 0.5 to 50x the stake. During free spins, the remaining empty positions spin independently, and any new Rome symbol is locked in place. The round begins with three free spins, which reset when new symbols appear. Finally, locked Rome symbols reveal wins ranging from 0.5 to 50 times each. The values are added together and multiplied by the current Free Spins Multiplier. It then resets to x1 and repeats the process in the base game. Finally, filling all places during the feature doubles the symbol values.
