Atlantean GigaRise review

Theme and Storyline

This slot is themed around the mythical lost city of Atlantis.

Set in an enchanting underwater world, this game features reels framed by towering pillars and ancient vases. Fish swim among the classical ruins of the submerged civilization and players will begin to get the sense that there is something magical about this place.

Players will snag treasure in the depths of the ocean while enjoying the reef scenery. Those in the mood for a whimsical adventure will especially enjoy this game.

Graphics, Sounds and Animations

The soundtrack is a mysterious classical melody that livens up upon spins. Wins are celebrated with an exciting chiming that makes it feel like players are solving the puzzle of the strange world.

The architecture of the city will bring to mind the majestic cities of the ancient Greek world. Little details such as the shells carved above the pillars help reinforce the ocean theme.

Due to the undersea setting, the entire world is tinged blue, with waves gently pulsing above the players and catching sunlight. The animation is self-aware of its cartoon style and is high quality.

The reels are filled with valuable relics such as harps, swords, and vases. A pearl in a clam shell looks tempting and seems right at home in a place adorned with colourful coral.

Gameplay

Atlantean GigaRise is a five reel slot with up to 8 rows, depending on the Trident symbol, which has the power to increase the height of a reel by +1.

Players are awarded wins for landing at least three matching symbols in adjacent reels, from left to right.

The gameplay has a good pace and will keep the players engaged.
