The greatest warrior in the epic Homer book Iliad and a Greek hero of the Trojan War is now a central piece in the five reel slot created by Real Time Gaming. Achilles who is believed to be a demigod is the son of the nymph Thesis and Peleus the king of Myrmidons. His greatest feat during the war was the slaying of the Trojan hero Hector just outside the walls of Troy. Don't worry when you see Achilles in a Roman uniform because it just fits in the whole concept of the game design and you'll be surprised by the interesting icons that appear on the five reels like: Helen from Troy, the Trojan horse, ancient Greek shields, flags with ornaments, etc.

You will easily learn all the rules and symbol meanings in the game so you will shortly proceed to wagering where you will see that the minimum amount is $0.01 per coin and the maximum is $1 per coin. This means that with only $20 on a single bet you are in the race for the maximum $10.000 progressive jackpot. It can be triggered on random basis at the end of each round and it just adds to the already existing balance.

When you spin the reels and see a smiling Achilles icon that is a great sign because it is the wild symbol in the game. When three of them appear anywhere on the screen a special feature is triggered where the player needs to select one Achilles and receive 15, 20 or 25 free spins. During this period all Troy symbols are changed with the Achilles and Helen ones. Not only that you can retrigger this feature, but the wild symbol also plays the part of a x3 multiplier.

The player gets 10 free games automatically when three or more scattered symbols appear anywhere on the five reels. You also get a doubling multiplier during these free spins and you can also retrigger the feature by hitting three Achilles or/and Troy symbols.

After reviewing this RTG classic, one could easily tell that there is no real Achilles tendon weak spot neither in the design or game-play sector. Everything is well thought off and planed in a way that will allow the player to have fun and make decent or even big profit with the random progressive jackpot and the special features that include the wild and scatter symbols.
