We Explore the Underwater Riches in the Atlantis Slot From Red Tiger Gaming!
Energy Casino has recently partnered up with Red Tiger Gaming and has now added all of their back catalogue of slots, their latest slot release Atlantis should be live and playable very soon.
The Atlantis slot is a 5×4 reel, 30 fixed payline machine that uses tumbling reels or an avalanche style mechanic, when wins are created they are removed from the reels with new symbols dropping into place. This slot is being pitched as a highly volatile slot with a 5/5 rating from red tiger but also with quite a high hit rate, since the tumbling reels can grant many successive smaller wins, the real key to this slot is the wild multipliers can that boost these pays!
There are special Treasure Chest symbols which open when they hit the sea bed to reveal a Wild Reel with a random multiplier, during the bonus round these can be a random multiplier up to 5x, and with each new wild reels that land the multiplier is saved from the previous ones total and increased again in value up to 5x each time, giving the potential to reach some huge multiplier wild reel values!
The Gold Spins bonus round is triggered by landing 3 scatters on the middle reels and awards a starting 10 free spins, during the main bonus feature the Multipliers values awarded from the wild reels do not reset, you can also earn extra free spins during the bonus from the special Spin symbols which can really help to extend this bonus feature.
In our playtests, we did manage to get up to about a 15x multiplier value, with potentially much higher value on offer too, but even at these levels wins of several hundred times stake are a possibility!

Special Features
Treasure Chest
The special Treasure Chest symbol can land randomly on any reel, when this hits the bottom of the reel it cracks open to reveal Wild Reel
If the Treasure Chest doesn’t land at the bottom, then it will stay on the reels until the next spin where it will tumble into place and award the wild reel, there can only be one treasure chest visible at any one time.
Wild Reel
The Wild Reel can also sometimes have a multiplier applied to it, this can go up to 5x in the base game, and is stored as a growing total during the Gold SPin feature.
Gold Spins
The main bonus round is triggered by landing 3 Gold Spins scatter symbols and awards 10 Gold Spins, additional scatters add three extra spins.
During the Gold Spins the Wild Reel Multiplier value is accumulated and doesn’t reset during the bonus round, this means each time the treasure chest symbol lands it can increase the multiplier total by up to 5x each time.
Atlantis Slot
Overall Opinions
We found the Atlantis Slot from Red Tiger to be an enjoyable slot to play, whilst there is nothing groundbreaking in terms of the special features the tumbling reels and wild reel multipliers do interact very nicely making the gameplay quite interesting. The biggest potential on this slot is definitely the bonus round where the multipliers do not reset and can grow to some very big values, especially if you manage to earn some extra spins during the feature too.
You are however quite reliant on the multipliers to provide a boost to the wins, in our playtests we can had mixed results, generally under the 100x stake range with a few bonuses that exceeded this target, our best bonus round was well over 300x stake with obviously lots more potential too.
Overall a refreshing take on a tumbling reels slots, and certainly worth testing out to see if you enjoy this style of gameplay, the growing multipliers definitely add a very nice dose of volatility and could produce some huge wins!
