Tomb Raider Slots | A breathtaking world of lost treasures
What a great concept. Microgaming obtained licensing rights to the immensely popular, and immediately identifiable concept of the video game Lara Croft™ and Tomb Raider™ and have molded this spectacular game into an even more spectacular 5-reel, 15-payline, 75-coin online slot machine. This slot offers several features like Wild and Scatter symbols, a great Bonus feature and even the opportunity to obtain Free Spins, this is also the very first online slot machine to offer you the chance to enter the Bonus Round as a result of either normal play or during any of your Free Spins.
Tomb Raider Slots has a total of eleven different symbols on its reels. The first of these symbols is the Idol. This is a golden statue that sits with legs crossed and hands on knees and acts as the game’s Tomb Bonus trigger. The next symbol is the Tomb Raider logo. This symbol acts as the game’s Wild Symbol and will substitute any of the game’s symbols except for the Scatter Symbol and the Bonus Idol. The Lara Croft™ symbol is the game’s Free Spin Trigger, and when you hit three, four or five of them, you win 10 Free Spins. Next on the list is the Gadget. This is the symbol that looks like a triangle with several gears coming off of it. Next is Crouching Lara. The Crouching Lara symbol is just that, a picture of Lara in the crouching position. The Tiger is the next symbol used. It is simply a graphic of a Tiger slinking down stone stairs. The remaining symbols are a golden A, representing the Ace (as in a deck of cards); a blue K, representing the King; a purple Q , representing a Queen; a blue J for the Jack, and a green number ten.
This fantastic game offers players loads of special features and extras. The first of which is the Free Spin Bonus Game. If you hit three or more of the Lara Symbols on any active reels, you activate the Free Spins Bonus and get 10 free spins. If you hit three or more of the Lara symbols during a free spin turn, you will be awarded 10 more free spins that are automatically added to your remaining free spins for that round. When this free spin bonus is activated, all of the bets, paylines and coin sizes played in the current normal round are activated for the free spin round and all wins during this bonus round are multiplied by three! This Lara symbol has a second purpose as well. If two or more of the Lara symbols are hit anywhere on the reels, it activates a scatter bonus that will award you with anywhere between two and four hundred coins, depending on how many symbols show up. These Scatter wins are also counted when in Free Spin Bonus mode. The next special feature offered by this game is called the Tomb Bonus Game (which can also still be activated during the Free Spin Bonus Game, however, wins from the Tomb Bonus are not multiplied as other wins in the Free Spin Game). In order to enter the Tomb Bonus Game, you have to hit three or more of the golden Idol symbols in a row on an activated payline. The Wild Symbol, the Tomb Raider logo, does not replace the Idol to activate this bonus game. Once you enter the Tomb Bonus Game, you are given the opportunity to choose a certain number of Idols to give you your bonus win amounts. If you hit three Idol Symbols to enter the Tomb Bonus Game, you get to select three idols; if you hit four Idol Symbols to enter the Tomb Bonus Game, you get to select four idols; and if you hit five Idol Symbols to enter the Tomb Bonus Game, you get to select five idols. When you go to the bonus screen, you will see Twelve Idols that each hide a random number of coins. The number of coins shown behind an Idol when you pick it, is multiplied by the number of coins you wagered per payline.
Next on this long list of special features is the Wild Symbol. Very fittingly, the Wild Symbol for this great game is the Tomb Raider Slots game logo. This symbol will replace any other symbol on any active payline to complete a winning combination, with the exception of any scatter win and the Idol that activated the Tomb Bonus Game. Now, on to the Lara Symbol. The Lara Symbol is the symbol of Lara with her arms crossed by her head. This is both the Scatter Symbol and the Free Spins activator. To win the Scatter bonus, you need only hit at least two of these symbols anywhere on the reels. It does not matter if the payline it appears on is activated or even if the symbols are in the same row. Your scatter winnings can be calculated by multiplying the corresponding payout (see the Payout table) by the number of credits that were wagered. If you have hit both a scatter win and a regular win, you get paid for both wins since the scatter bonus symbols don’t need to appear on any specific payline. Any scatter win will be added to your normal payline win.
Since you have a choice of coin denominations including five cents, ten cents, twenty cents, twenty five cents, fifty cents and one dollar, the cost per spin ranges from $3.75 all the way up to $75. If you make the maximum bet, you can win up to $37, 500 on a single spin. And if you factor in the Free Spin Bonus 3x multiplier feature, your single spin win possibilities go all the way up to $112, 500!
