Theme of The Game

Amazing Link: Apollo is a game that’s been inspired by the Ancient Greeks and by one of their deities in particular. Apollo, god of archery (you see him holding a bow in the game) and of music, prophecies, and others, is the star of this one. The location is next to one of his temples, a beautiful building made out of white marble, with gardens and rivers nearby.

Moving on to the reels, they’re solid dark blue, and they feature half a dozen Greek-style Royals (9 to Ace), along with an amphora, a harp, a purple chariot, and a white horse. As its feature symbols, it has an Apollo Wild and a Temple scatter.

How To Play It

A complete betting range in Amazing Link: Apollo is between $0.20 and $50 each round, which tells us that the line bet is anywhere between $0.01 and $2.50.

What you’re seeing, is a slot machine with 5×3 reels, that get a total of 20 active lines on them. As long as you can get 3 or more matching symbols to align themselves on an active line, and left to right, you get paid.

Special Features

Apollo, god of archery, is shown holding a bow and arrow in the slot’s wild symbol. There are two versions for this one, being used either in regular form (1×1) or expanded and taking over the entire column. Either way, it will be available both as a substitute, and as a way for you to form new winning combinations. Five wilds covering a full line will pay 10x the stake.

Amazing Link is the name of one of the major features available in Apollo. You need 6 or more of these Sun-like symbols, called Amazing Symbols. When that happens, you trigger a streak respin bonus. You start off with the triggering symbols sticky, and with 3 respins. The respins reset to 3, whenever new Amazing symbols land.

At the end of the feature, you get paid by each Amazing symbol you collected. Jackpots are also available in a special Pick bonus that can trigger at the end of the feature or at any point during regular spins.

You’re also going to get a shot at a free spins feature, which requires the Temple scatter landing three times on the reels 1, 3, and 5.

A pick has to be made, of a combination of free spins and the number of Amazing Reels. These Amazing Reels are getting only wilds and Amazing symbols on them, so they’re quite powerful. You can also upgrade reels by getting bonus symbols on them, and this also adds 1 extra spin to the total. The options that you’re getting are for:

Maximum Payouts

Paying up to 5,000x the stake, Amazing Link: Apollo does reasonably well for a modern slot machine. It has the medium-high volatility rating to go with that potential, so even in the short run there will be some risk for the player to tackle. Still, if you find a casino where the RTP is set to 96.40%, it’s worth it.

Summary

Amazing Link: Apollo is a fun addition to a series of slot machines from Microgaming that proved that their strategy of bringing new developers onboard was the right one. Many of those games proved to be interesting, and I’d put Apollo in that category as well.
