In the Treasures of Troy slot machine the Trojan Horse plays an equally vital role, but rather than hiding soldiers inside, these are full of free spins for you to enjoy, with the more you land on the third reel meaning more free spins to do battle with. 2 Trojan Horse Symbols: 10 free spins. 3 Trojan Horse Symbols: 15 free spins. Treasures of Troy is a slot to which you should give careful thought as to how you want to play. For me, during the review process, playing 40 paylines was by far more profitable, even if that runs counter to accepted slot logic.

For most players, 1024 win-lines are plenty enough – if you are looking for even more possibilities, then Treasures of Troy from IGT has the answer. In addition to the ‘MultiWay Xtra' 1024 winning combinations, you'll get 40 standard win lines on top. The same symbols make up the lines, though they pay different amounts (more for the old win-lines system). This historical slot is nicely put together. I found this game entertaining to play and a great example of new technology in a tried and trusted niche.
Dramatic music plays, especially when you get a win. What I liked about this slot is that you can keep spinning, and the stirring tune keeps on going for 2 or maybe 3 spins. There graphics are subtle. They feel modern and nicely put together, though they are a tan colour and mostly quite simple and understated. Things liven up for the free spins bonus, where everything changes colour for a while.
This felt like a high variance slot. There were patches where I clicked for a while with no wins at all, and then suddenly, big wins would appear.
You can choose either the 40 lines alone, or the 40 lines plus the 1024-ways system for this game. If you are not familiar with MultiWay Xtra, this pays all sequential symbols starting in the left hand reel regardless of position on the reels. Effectively, as long as there is one of each symbol, you cannot miss having a win like you can with the old win-lines system.Playing the lines costs you 1c per line minimum, with an extra 40c for the 1024 ways option – making the smallest spin for both 80c.
Things get a little complex for the pay-outs. You get more for the line bets and less for the same sequence of symbols for the multi-way bets. For example, the lady (presumably Helen of Troy) is the top payer. This gets you 5000 coins for 5 via the win-lines, and only 500 for the multi-way. You do need to balance this with the fact you'll have a lot more wins with the multi-way, especially when a wild or two gets involved. The male hero, solider, mask and sword are the next paying regular symbols, with the playing cards ace through jack making up the smaller wins.
There is a wild symbol in the form of the ‘Treasures of Troy' logo. This substitutes for everything except the bonus and can appear in columns 2 through 5. The famous Trojan horse is the bonus symbol, which only appears on the middle reel. You get 10 free spins for 2, 15 spins for 3 and 20 spins for 4 of these.
While the reels and background changes colour, and the dramatic music goes up a level of intensity, the bonus round is essentially the same as the main game. If you get 2 or more Trojan Horses, which now faces the other way, then you get up to 20 more spins (same rules as the main game). There is a limit of 130 spins per feature.The wins accumulate in a new counter, and you are shown a screen which announces your total before you go back to the main game.
There is something about this kind of historical slot which encourages the makers to create higher variance games. This is no exception, with some very big wins interspersed with long barren spells. When the wilds did combine well, the 1024 + 40 lines came into their own, creating some huge wins and resulting cascade of coins over the reels.I liked both the graphics and the music for this game. The stirring music contrasted well with the smart yet understated graphics to create an atmospheric slot. The feature round is nothing too special, though a retrigger or two can see a spin turn into a big windfall very quickly.
This slot gets a recommendation, even if you do not normally go for the historical games; this is a nicely put together slot which is definitely worth taking for a spin.
The Trojan War was a monumental period in the history of Greek mythology as the Greeks invaded Troy after Paris of Troy seduced Helen from Menelaus who was her husband and the King of Sparta, and now you have the opportunity to reap the rewards of war as the battle is relived and you go in search of the treasures that have been left behind in destroyed buildings.
A Multiway Slot
The period was famous for its incredible architecture and the reels are set on a historic building with impressive columns on each side as you gaze into the streets of Troy in the background where everything is quiet and peaceful – until your trigger the free spins feature and witness buildings erupt in flames as the war is in full swing.
Treasures of Troy is a 5x4 reeled slot machine which boasts the Multiway feature that IGT are renowned for. This enables you to play up to 40 paylines for 40 coins or else pay 80 coins to have 1,024 ways to win and thus enjoy more valuable treasure as your winnings will be greater and come more frequently – plus whenever you do land winning combinations on the reels you will hear Helen shout out to congratulate you which is a nice touch!

Wage War on the Reels
As you'd expect from a slot based on one of the most famous wars in Greek mythology, the Treasures of Troy slot machine features the three main people that culminated in the war coming to fruition, with eleven symbols featuring on the reels in total.
The Treasures of Troy logo is the Wild symbol with the power to substitute for all symbols except for the Trojan Horse, although it never makes an appearance on the first reel. It's Helen of Troy who leads the way as the most valuable symbol of all as the battle was waged over her, with Paris of Troy the second highest paying symbol, closely followed by Menelaus. You will also see a warrior's helmet, a dagger, and Ace to Jack icons which are draped in very valuable gold jewellery.
Trojan Horse's Filled with Free Spins
The Trojan Horse is one of the most iconic symbols from Greek mythology. It was very large hollow wooden structure of a horse in which Greek soldiers were able to hide inside in order to advance through arrows being fired at them as they entered Troy and it was created by Epeius who was a master carpenter.
In the Treasures of Troy slot machine the Trojan Horse plays an equally vital role, but rather than hiding soldiers inside, these are full of free spins for you to enjoy, with the more you land on the third reel meaning more free spins to do battle with.
2 Trojan Horse Symbols: 10 free spins
3 Trojan Horse Symbols: 15 free spins
4 Trojan Horse Symbols: 20 free spins
As usual when you trigger a free spins feature, they are played out using the same number of paylines and value of coins as the spin which resulted in the feature being activated, and while some are rather tight and don't offer you the ability to re-trigger additional free spins, the Treasures of Troy slot machine does allow you.
An alternate set of symbols are used throughout the feature (such as the Trojan Horse facing the left with white columns behind rather than to the right with cream columns behind like in the base game) with buildings in the distance on fire indicating the war has begun and landing two or more of these Trojan Horse symbols on the third reel again will see your free spins counter topped up by the number of spins listed above with Helen announcing that ‘the Gods have extended your bonus', with the feature ending once the counter reaches 0 or whenever you have played 130 spins for free.

As expected, IGT have done a fabulous job recreating the Trojan War on the reels as Paris of Troy and Menelaus do battle over Helen. It's great that you can opt to pay per payline or activate the 1,024-ways to win feature, although it really is all about the free spins feature and I couldn't help being lured back to the Spartacus Gladiator of Rome slot machine from WMS for a more action-packed battle with the reels!
