Age of the Gods: Goddess of Wisdom Slot Review
There are a few slot machines in the ‘Age of the Gods’ range right now. The ‘Goddess of Wisdom’ slot is arguably one of the best yet. Based solely on Athena, it is packed to the brim with features which will keep you entertained spin after spin.
How to Play Age of the Gods: Goddess of Wisdom Slot Machine
Age of the Gods: Goddess of Wisdom Slot has 5 reels and 20 paylines. The minimum bet per spin is 20p and the maximum bet is £1000. This means that you have a good range of bets for slot machine enthusiasts. While we can’t imagine anybody going near the £1000 mark, although we are sure it does happen, it is great to know that you have such a good spread of potential bets.
While the previous games in the Age of the Gods series have focused on many different Ancient Greek gods, such as the Age of The Gods King of Olympus Slot, this one focuses purely on Athena.
She is the goddess of wisdom (hence the name), although she does dabble in being the goddess of war from time to time. Graphically, the game is stunning. As you may expect, it has an Ancient Greek theme to it. Think along the lines of olive branches, sandals, etc. and you get the idea of what to expect when you play this game.
Bonus Rounds & In-Game Features
There is only one feature in the Age of the Gods: Goddess of Wisdom slot machine that is worth mentioning. This is the ‘battle mode’. Well, that is what the game calls it, it is really free spins. You are under the protection of Athena so you don’t really have to battle anything yourself. She is able to do it all.
To trigger the ‘Battle Mode’, you will need to get 3 or more scatter symbols on the reels. This will be the owl. You will then be asked to choose one of three modes. Each mode is different, although all of them offer free spins. Obviously, you won’t be able to see which mode you have picked! That would make the game too easy:
- Gorgoneion: if you choose this one, you just get 10 free spins.
- Helmet: 7 free spins, each of which be subjected to a 4x multiplier.
- Armor: 14 free spins, each subject to a 2x multiplier.
During your free spins, all wilds will become expanding i.e. they will fill the whole of the reel that they land on. In addition to this, the symbol that you choose will replace two of the symbols in the game, which means that they will appear more often, which means there is a greater chance of you winning. You can’t trigger further free spins.
Age of the Gods: Goddess of Wisdom Mobile Slot Review
As with most Playtech games nowadays, there is also a mobile version of the Age of the Gods: Goddess of Wisdom slot machine available. We gave it a whirl on a few different mobile devices and it does play well. The colour scheme and art style is something that works well on a mobile device. Of course, you also have the features which are simple to understand. We feel like these features are best for mobile devices as you only want something that you can pick up and play from time to time. You don’t want something which is going to demand the whole of your focus. For that reason, we do love the Age of the Gods: Goddess of Wisdom mobile slot machine.
Summary – What Do We Think?
We found the Age of the Gods: Goddess of Wisdom an enjoyable experience. Originally, we felt that this may have been down to the fact that we had fallen in love with the whole Age of the Gods experience. We love their machines, so it may have been a bit of bias creeping in. However, we did recommend the slot machine to people we know did not like the Age of the Gods slot, and they seemed to like it anyway.
So, even if you absolutely loathed the previous games from Playtech, we still urge you to give this one a try. Sure, the overall theme of the game is the same, but once you start to dive into the actual gameplay, it provides a fabulous experience spin after spin. Remember, this game is suited to both beginner slot machine players and the more experienced enthusiasts alike!
