300 Shields was a popular video slot machine game in its time. Due to the game’s popularity, a sequel was released called 300 Shields Extreme. Both games were named for their generous multiplier that increases a players winnings 300 times.
The main difference between the original game and its sequel is that unlike 300 Shields, Extreme was designed using HTML5. This makes it ideal for those playing the game on a mobile device, a luxury they didn’t have with the first one.
Graphics & Symbols
Though the graphics and symbols in this game are two dimensional, they still add something to the experience. The backdrop seen behind the reels includes a grassy meadow players of the original game will recognize. In the far distance is the Parthenon, under a pale blue sky.
On the reels, symbols include a Spartan Ship, a blade and arrow, bowman, and a sheath. A shiny shield is the game’s scatter symbol and its wild symbol is a Spartan Warrior.
Bonus Features
Three of the shield scatter symbols on the reels at once triggers five free spins. These free spins come with a multiplier that doubles a player’s winnings. However, the double multiplier can only be used when a winning combination of symbols includes the wild.
While the free spins are taking place, players must get two scatter shield symbols on the reels at once. When they do, they reach level two of the bonus. This gives them an additional five spins for free, with a five times multiplier attached. Players can reach the third level by collecting enough shields. Level three brings with it a 25 times multiplier. Reaching the fourth level of the bonus, players will unlock the coveted 300 times multiplier.
Players that don’t trigger free spins can buy their chance to experience them. There is a button to the left of the reels that lets players buy their way into free spins.
