The Legend of Hercules Review

The Legend of Hercules is a StakeLogic and Hurricane Games collaboration, and it plays out on 5 reels, 3 rows and 30 ways to win. The optional Super Stake feature brings a symbol upgrade feature to the table, where the multiplier increases for each upgrade. This can lead to payouts up to 10,000x, which is solid for a low to medium volatile game, and you will also benefit from a bonus round here.

The bonus round has nothing extra to offer than the vague promise of “higher winning chances” from the developer, something we saw nothing of in our test session at least (check the highlights video further down in the review). The symbol upgrade multiplier feature is only available if you double your stake via the Super Stake feature. This kind of forces your hand in many ways, as the game is just too boring without it.

The Legend of Hercules Features

The first thing you need to decide before you start playing is whether or not you want to play with the Super Stake feature active. This will effectively double your stake, but you will also trigger a special and exclusive feature on a regular basis.

The Super Stake feature in The Legend of Hercules is all about symbol upgrades. You will get a random number of upgrades each time. The lowest value symbol on the screen will be upgraded first, then the next one, and so forth. This could potentially lead to all symbols being upgraded to the highest paying wild symbol.

What’s more, each upgrade increases the progressive multiplier. This multiplier can go as high as 10x.

Also the scatter symbols land in stacks here (on reels 2, 3 and 4 only), and you therefore need as many as 7+ on the same spin to trigger the free spins bonus round. You win a small scatter win up front, and you then get 8, 15 or 30 free spins when you land 7, 8 or 9 scatters, respectively.

While the regular spins play out in daytime, the scenery shifts dramatically to nighttime in the bonus round. According to the game’s paytable, you have a better chance at landing winning combos in free spins mode. Other than that, there are no extra features or modifiers to look forward to.

The 200 Spins The Legend of Hercules Experience

We have to admit that somewhat generic looking ancient greece themed games are not our all time favorites. However, due to the compelling combination of low to medium volatility and a solid 10,000x max win potential, we had a certain interest in seeing how our 200 spins test session played out. If you’re curious too, you can check out the video highlights below.

Review Summary

It’s a bit hard to make sense of this game to be honest.

However, since the Super Stake feature can lead to the max win of 10,000x, it feels kind of amputated to play without it. The bonus round was a snoozefest in our test session, but you might have totally different experience with it, of course. Still, with no extra features/modifiers, the free spins feels almost like the base game grind. If you play without the Super Stake active, there is really not all that much to look forward to here.

Pros

• Super Stake symbol upgrades with progressive multiplier
• Free spins with increased winning chances (apparently)
• Low to medium volatility and 10,000x max win potential

Cons

• Below average RTP of 95.05 %
• Generic design and uninspired bonus round
