The Ancient Aztec culture has been an ever-popular theme amongst slot game developers and it is clear Play ‘N Go have taken inspiration for their Phoenix Reborn slot game from the culture!

Players will go on a journey through this slot game as they look for the riches that can be associated with the Ancient Aztecs and our Phoenix Reborn game review will look to help provide all the necessary information to try and put bettors in the best position to take home some cool treasure.

Gameplay

This game from the industry leading Scandinavian game developers is a five-reel slot that has 40 fixed paylines available to form winning bets on. Players can take to the reels with spins as little as $0.20, although those that fancy their chances with bigger values can with bets of $100 per spin as the maximum allowed.

There is a game panel at the bottom of the five-reel grid that allows for players to make adjustments to tailor their gameplay experience. The first thing that is noticeable is the range of bets that can be made, whilst to the right there are ‘Autoplay’ and ‘Spin’ buttons. Players who want to get used to these controls – not that they require much – can play the Phoenix Reborn Free Play version above this review!

Fitting in with the theme of Ancient Aztec culture, Play ‘N Go have introduced a number of symbols to represent it rather well. There are a number of glyphs as well as animals that can be found such as a toucan, a snake and a panther, whilst there are also two different Aztec Warriors and the Phoenix Wild icon.

Players will find that they can receive up to 7.5x their bet for five-of-a-kind in regards to the animal icons, whilst they will receive between 15x and 20x for the two Aztec Warriors. Nonetheless, the Wild is the most lucrative as it provides bettors with 50x their stake when five appear on the reels in one spin. It also has the ability to expand and cover all positions on any reel, thus providing players with more chances of winning!

The Golden Mask that features on the reels is the Scatter and this will trigger a rather exciting bonus feature that is explained below.

Feature Bonuses

As mentioned earlier in this Phoenix Reborn game review, the Wild and the Scatter have some rather exciting features attached to them and players can look to make the most of them.

The Wild will expand over all six positions on a reel and will substitute all other symbols found in the main game to help players in their quest to land a huge 5,000x their bet!

However, the Golden Mask Scatter is the icon that provides players with the greatest feature as it triggers the ‘Rise of the Phoenix’ feature. This is activated when two or more of the symbols are landed on the reels and hand players 3, 7, 12 and 20 free spins respectively! In addition to the free spins, the Phoenix Wild will also appear in the feature as it lands randomly on a reel in each of the free spins to have been awarded.

The Phoenix Reborn slot game by Play ‘N Go is of a high-volatility and has a return to player (RTP) rate of 96%, which is fairly standard for the Swedish game developer.
