Belatra Games may not be a mainstream company, but their success in the competitive online slot gaming industry is evident with over a hundred slots in our catalog. One of their games, Ancient Temple Gems, features an old jungle theme and offers up to 3,125 ways to win. The game’s atmosphere is enhanced by bright and colorful visuals, and an animated adventurer accompanying players. Despite the theme not being original, the design has been executed well.
The game’s mathematical model displays a high volatility level and a jackpot of 5,000x. However, the game only has a hit frequency of 10.66% and a betting range from £0.25 to £1,000 per spin at certain casinos. The theoretical RTP of Ancient Temple Gems is disappointingly low at 91.17%.
The game features 10 pay symbols, divided into 4 low pays, 3 mid pays, and 3 high pays. Low pays are simple gems of different colors, mid pays are intricate ornaments, and high pays are amulets, rings, and chalices. The most valuable symbols are chalices, offering a 10x payout for a set of five. There are also Wilds that can substitute for other symbols to complete winning combinations.
The game starts with 9 open tiles and 12 ways to win, with more tiles and ways to win becoming available with each win. If all tiles are broken, the Free Spins feature is triggered, offering 10 free spins and unique symbols only available during this feature. The Jackpot Wheel of Fortune feature, unique to Belatra Games slots, allows players to collect JP points to win a variety of prizes.
In conclusion, while Ancient Temple Gems is an attractive game with an enjoyable gameplay concept, its low RTP of 91.17% is a significant drawback. Pros and cons will be discussed later.
