Er Colosseo

Theme

Travel back to Ancient Rome and spend an afternoon at the Colosseum. 

Capecod Gaming, the Italian based developer, has found inspiration in one of the iconic Italian landmarks and the history surrounding it.

The largest amphitheater ever built, Colosseum or Colosseo is still standing as a reminder of the once great Roman Empire. It was used for all kinds of public spectacles but it is probably best known these days for gladiator fights.

In the background, we can see this magnificent antic building basking in the rays of the setting Sun. The intense drumrolls are accompanying the spinning reels and the winning combinations are announced by the trumpets. On the sides of stone – frames reels are some of the ancient weapons gladiators used.

Betting Options and Symbols

Er Colosseo is played on 5 reels, 3 rows, and 25 paylines.

In the bottom left corner, you can set the number of paylines and the number of coins you want to play per line. The maximum number is 10 coins per line while the range of the coin value goes from 0.01 up to 0.10 euros.

When it comes to symbols, …

… the low – value icons are the standard A, K, Q, and J, with A and K being the highest paying and rewarding you with 100 times your coin value. 

The high – value icons are in sync with the theme and consist of a wonderfully depicted knight, a gladiator, lovely lady holding a single rose and a cruel looking Cesar …

… showing the thumb down which was the signal for ending one of the fighter’s lives during these bloody gladiator contests. Although vicious, Caesar is the most rewarding of them and will get you 500 times the coin value for landing 5 on the line.

Special Features

There are 3 more symbols circulating in this release and they are the most generous. All three of them - Wild, Scatter and Bonus icon, offer some special perks.

Wild or the Golden eagle is there, as per usual, to substitute for all symbols except Scatter and Bonus icon. It also has a place on the paytable and will get 7.500 times your coin value for getting 5 of them on the line.

Bonus icon is represented by the Colosseum and landing at least 3 of them on the active payline will trigger the Colosseum game. It takes you to the inside of the Colosseum and lets you choose which door to open. Every time a chosen door reveals the gladiator weapon, you will be given a prize. If the door you choose show an empty room, the round ends immediately.

BUT …

… There’s more!

Shield with two crossed swords is the Scatter. When 3 or more of them appear anywhere in the view on the grid, they activate the “Free Spins” mode. The most important thing to know is that all wins are tripled during this feature. Also, if you manage to get 3 Scatters while this round is played, you will get 10 additional spins.

Conclusion

All in all, it’s a standard slot with great bonus games.

Developers did a fantastic job when it comes to visuals. Graphics are amazing! Animations visible when the winning combos are made and during extra rounds are really captivating.

High rollers won’t be satisfied with the max bet offer, that’s for certain. But the title definitely has immersive gameplay and appealing additional games.
