Victory is a slot from RTG that has as a theme the Battle of Trafalgar, which took place in 1805. In this battle, the navy of the British Empire fought against ships from France and Spain, the result being a clear victory of Britain. The name of the game seems to be inspired by HMS Victory, the admiral ship of the British, which carried into battle Admiral Lord Nelson. Twenty seven ships of the British went against thirty nine from Spain and France, and they were still victorious. What makes the victory even harder to swallow by the French is that they lost 22 ships, while the Brits lost none.
Victory’s 5 reels are occupied by up to 20 lines. At the top of the reels you will notice a Random Jackpot being advertised, while the slot’s own prizes will mean up to 10,000 coins for the player ($50,000). You will get a decent list of extra features as well, mostly free spins, multipliers, scatter symbols and wilds.
Features of Victory
Offering a lot of free spins and high multipliers, the game seems to be doing a good job when it comes to the features it includes. There is nothing out of the ordinary here, but what they did decide to put in the game is not just the minimum necessary.
One of the ships that took part in the Battle of Trafalgar, a huge sail ship with its sides filled with cannon ports, takes the role of a substitute. The Ship may only appear on the 2nd, 3rd and 4th reels. Thanks to its capability, the wild is capable of taking the role of another symbol, if that will allow a new combination to be formed. It can also be used in multiple new combinations in the same round.
The scatter symbol is represented here by the flag of the British Empire, riddled with holes but still flying proud. As in every other game, the wins offered by the scatter are multiplied with the total wager, not with the line bet. You will be rewarded with 3x to 100x the triggering bet, when you have 3 to 5 Flag symbols.
Free Games Feature
The same 3 to 5 scatter symbols that give you prizes, also get you access to the free games round. It starts with 12 spins for 3 scatters, while 4 scatters will get you 20 spins and 5 scatters will offer 50 spins for free. You can also retrigger this feature
The typical multiplier for a free spin round is at 2x. However, this multiplier goes to 4x, if a Ship wild is part of a winning combination. The wild’s new multiplier is only available for the duration of the free spins.
Betting options and jackpots
Victory is a slot that will appeal both to high rollers and those that prefer to invest as little as possible for each spin. At its highest setting, the bet is worth about $100, where each coin/line selected means a $5 investment. There is no obligation to use all the lines or their highest setting, so you can change the denomination to as little as $0.01 and use fewer paylines.
There are 10,000 coins on the line in the base game, with the free spins awarding up to 40,000 coins thanks to its multipliers. The dollar value is $50,000 normally, but there is the chance to get up to $200,000 instead.
Design and symbols
Victory does a good job at bringing you the atmosphere of the early 19th century sea battles, using beautifully designed ships, officers of the two navies, cannons and more playing cards than I wanted to see. Even the displays and betting options have thick rope as their borders, while the reels have a light blue background.
Symbols: Ship (wild), Flag (scatter, 100x the bet), French Officer (10,000x), British Officer (5,000x), Cannon (2,000x), Bell (2,000x), Ace/King (500x), Queen/Jack (250x), 10/9 (200x).
Is It Worth Playing?
Whether you’re a fan of history or military battles, Victory provides you with the right experience, with strong payouts and with a feature that gives up to 50 free games and multipliers of up to 4x. I’d say this slot deserves your attention, at least until you figure out if it’s lucky for you.
The Victory slot machine is offered through the RTG platform, so if you want to play it for real or just to practice, look out for casinos that use it.
