Aztec’s Millions is one of the many games that RTG offers that also comes with a progressive jackpot. The game’s theme is not 100% original, but it remains popular with many players thanks to the interest it takes in the treasures of the Aztec people. The focus here is not as much on the history part, as it is on gold treasures and jewelry, though there are some things there that just try to give you a bit of a feeling of the environment they were in.
Besides the progressive jackpot that I’ve already mentioned, the game also gives the player all the usual modern features that he’s used to, including free spins, multipliers, scatter symbols and wilds. The layout has 5 reels with 3 rows of symbols and a total of 25 paylines on them. If the progressive jackpot is out of your reach (it can get into the seven figure area), you can always hope for the game’s own prize, worth up to $1,000.
Features of Aztec’s Millions
The Aztec King symbol represents an important feature in this slot machine, but it’s not the most important one that it has to offer. It is used in the role of a wild, meaning that it has the power to substitute for one of the other symbols, as long as it’s not the progressive jackpot symbol or one of the scattered idols. It’s also quite limited in this case, as the appearance of a wild is only permitted on one of the middle three reels (2 to 4).
The Gold Idol is the other big feature offered by this game and I’d say it’s considerably more important than the wild is, in this case at least. A scatter symbol has the advantage of being able to do its job no matter what the position of its symbols is. There is still a requirement of a minimum number of symbols that have to be around at the same time, but they can be scattered around the screen (hence the name). The requirement in this case is a minimum of three symbols to be present, with payouts offered starting at 3x the value of the round bet and going up to 100x if there are more scatters present.
The Free Games of Aztec’s Millions
The number of scatter symbols present doesn’t matter just for cash prizes though. The same range of 3 to 5 scatter symbols will also give you access to free spins, on top of the prizes. You get either 5, 15 or 25 of these free spins, depending on the number of gold idols present during the same spin.
Betting options and jackpots
Placing a bet in this slot is one of the easiest things you can do. The reason is that you simply don’t have the option to change anything, the entire thing being fixed at $5 per spin ($0.20 per line/coin). There is no option to change the bet value, just to Spin the reels, making things considerably easier.
The game’s own prizes are not that great either, but that is understandable if you consider the $0.20 line wager. You still can win up to $1,000, meaning 5,000 coins.
The progressive jackpot is something quite different though, as it is often known to go over the $1,000,000 mark. The prize needs five logos of Aztec’s Million on a line, in order to be awarded.
Design and symbols
If I’d have to pick one aspect about this game that I’m not terribly happy with, it would have to be the design. Even though it’s not badly put together or too simple, the style chosen in this case just isn’t attractive enough. There is a lot I can forgive when it comes to winning a huge progressive jackpot though, and the design here is certainly not bad enough to ignore the game over it.
Symbols: Logo (progressive jackpot), Gold Idol (scatter, 100x the bet), Aztec King (wild), Aztec Princess (5,000x), Leopard (2,500x), Bird Costume (1,000x), Gold Broach (500x), Gold Necklace (500x), Ace/King (200x), Queen/Jack (150x), Ten/Nine (100x).
Is It Worth Playing?
There is little doubt in my mind about the answer to this question, not when it’s about a game that has made people millionaires before. Its progressive jackpot is the kind of thing that makes players dream about all the things they could buy, so if you have the millionaire dream as well, try it out.
Aztec’s Million is the kind of game that every RTG casino will be happy to include in their offer, so make sure you look for it.
