Book of Helios review

Theme and Storyline

Book of Helios has a Greek mythology theme.

Players will be transported to an ancient world of chariots, gods, and magic. With some weapons at hand, they’ll come face-to-face with Helios, a fierce god of the sun.

This slot is an excellent choice for fans of ancient Greek mythology, and those in the mood for a dramatic fantasy.

Graphics, Sounds and Animations

The cinematic soundtrack sets an epic mood and brings to mind the climactic moment in a film when the hero meets the villain. The reels spin with the metallic clink of chains, adding a visceral feel to the gameplay.

On the reels, players will see an array of stone letters animated in the style of the Greek alphabet. They’ll also find a mysterious book, a golden bow and arrow, and a coiled leather whip.

Helios himself looms over the reels, his eyes glowing red, and his skin cracked like old stone. His expression is cryptic and intimidating. Players will also encounter a tough-looking heroine who peers out from her reel unafraid of the supernatural forces she faces.

Overall, the graphics and soundtrack combine to create an engaging world of ancient myth and adventure.

If players land 3 or more Scatters, the Free Spins feature is triggered, starting with 10 free spins.

During the Free Spins feature, one paying symbol is chosen at random to function as a special expanding symbol.
