Independent iGaming studio Thunderkick has unveiled its latest creation, Ways of Athena, a Greek mythology-themed slot designed to captivate players with its innovative mechanics and substantial win potential. The game offers up to 43,923 ways to win, with expanding pay ways unlocking a massive 25,000x maximum win.
A Mythological Journey Through Innovation
Set against a backdrop of ancient Greece, Ways of Athena immerses players in the realm of the goddess of wisdom and warfare. The 3x5 grid is adorned with thematic symbols such as helmets, shields, amphoras, and lyres, creating a rich atmosphere.
Central to the game’s excitement is its unique mystery symbol mechanic. Mystery symbols, which land on reels two to five, match with symbols on reel one and can transform into double symbols. This dynamic feature increases the number of pay ways, boosting the potential for significant wins.
Bonus Round: Free Spins and Massive Pay Ways
The game’s bonus feature is triggered by landing three scatter symbols, awarding an initial eight free spins. Players can earn additional spins, with two granted for every extra scatter. During the bonus round, mystery symbols that match scatters on reel one split into double symbols, unlocking up to 44 free spins.
Adding to the thrill, the bonus round introduces a pay-way accumulation mechanic. Matching mystery orbs fill a meter beneath the reels, with every five orbs increasing the number of pay ways linked to mystery symbols. This feature culminates in a chance to achieve the game’s 25,000x maximum win.
