review of Slot Machine Mission Atlantis

Overview

Anything to do with the lost city of Atlantis is more than enough to conjure up images of long lost treasures, ancient artefacts, grand scientific explorations and advancements in knowledge. However, despite the myth and hype surrounding the ancient city, no human has ever managed to find it till date. The Mission Atlantis slot might not be able to bring the real Atlantis to you, but it definitely allows you to experience how the city must look and feel like. The deep blue underwater background hardly seems to be unique but complements the reel nicely.

Before you proceed

The Mission Atlantis slot is a 5 Reel 25 pay line slot which consists of wilds, scatters, bonus games, gamble and Autoplay features. Players can bet a maximum of $0.50 per line and $12.50 per spin. There is a Bet Max button for players who love to play with high stakes on every spin.

Special Features

The funny looking space shuttle icon acts as the wild and helps you to create winning combinations by substituting other symbols on the reels (except scatters). The exploration ship image acts as the scatter symbol in the Mission Atlantis Slot. Despite the average settings, the Mission Atlantis slot does manage to offer an exciting bonus game known as the Breakthrough Discovery Bonus Feature. The feature gets activated the moment 3 or more Radar Scanners appear on your active pay lines. The game takes you to a new screen where you are given a choice of 20 Atlantean treasures. However, as most bonus games go, you only have room for 5. Therefore, you must choose 5 out of the 20 treasures. As you keep selecting your treasures, your bonus prizes are revealed in front of your eyes. Those who managed to get four Radar Scanners can discard their selection once and try to get better rewards from the balance 15 treasures. Those who get five Radar Scanners can discard their selections twice. However, players should be sure about getting better deals by discarding their picks since this action is irreversible.

The Verdict

An epic theme, exciting features and great chances of winning help to make the Mission Atlantis popular among players. However, despite its best efforts, the slot falls far short of some of the best slots available today in terms of graphics, features, excitement levels and display. The music and sound effects could have been way better as well.
