Aztec Treasure Slot machine review

Aztec Treasure

With only 3 reels and 5 paylines offered, Aztec Treasure is considered a classic game from betsoft, which has a progressive jackpot and for features you will find bonus symbols, but little else.

The game's theme, while a bit dated, it's not as bad as others. Still, it could've done with a little more of the magic that Betsoft has gotten us used to. It has an Aztec theme, obviously, with the reels placed on some kind of building, and with the jungle seen in the background, behind them. The game's symbols include the warrior, the mask, the headdress with feathers, necklaces and so on. Each of these items has a connection with the theme, with no symbols used that don't belong there in some way. The theme has a soundtrack that is consistent with the design, with tribal music and various sounds that belong in the jungle, like those of wild animals.

The player can bet with 5 coins per payline, for a maximum of 8 paylines, so up to 40 coins can be used. The coin value is up to $1, with the lowest being $0.02. The maximum bet of $40 can result in a progressive jackpot, which is only possible when a max bet is used.

One of the features of the game is the bonus round, which is started once the player gets three gemstones. Each time one of these gems shows up, the Aztec warrior collects it, and when you get three you gain access to the bonus game. These gems will show up on the third reel, and they will be part of a symbol with a gold coin on it. The warrior will appear and throw his spear at that gem, taking it down from the reels. He will then take it and collect it for you. Once three are gathered, the Bonus round starts, and the player has to choose three holes where the gems should go. Each choice will result in a prize for the player, so it's a matter of luck just how big the prizes will be.

Players can choose to use the Hold feature as well, where they can keep a reel in place, so only the other reels will move during the next round.

It's a decent game, though the graphics would have benefited from some more work. I'd still recommend it if you find the Aztec culture fascinating.
